Kylie Jenner News: Reality TV Star & Fashion Model Stirs Controversy with Recent Instagram Pics
'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star, Kylie Jenner, ignited some controversy this Saturday over some recent photos shared on her Instagram.
The photos, now deleted, were from a recent shoot Jenner did, in which she wore very dark glittering makeup with the caption:
"What I wish I looked like all the time."
Onlookers accused the young fashion icon of posing in blackface and making a crude statement on race and culture.
Jenner later defends herself by sharing another photo from the shoot with the caption:
"This is a black light and neon lights people lets all calm down."
She also took to Twitter to further clarify her intentions:
"so just got the time to head on social media lol.. The photographer used a black light & neon lights for those photos."
"Yes, In another world I wish I could have pink hair & blue eyes & covered in sparkles."
"But in this world I'm happy w the way God created me. Happy Easter everybody."
