Kendall Jenner on Controversial Bikini Shoot: It's All Good!
As much as it pains us, we must give Kendall Jenner some credit.
The 14-year old half-sister of Khloe, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian responded this week to the controversy surrounding her recent photo shoot. Instead of getting on some high horse and telling the world to focus on more important issues (we're looking at you, Miley Cyrus), Kendall came across as mature and understanding of the situation.
"I am excited to be working as a model, doing what I love to do," she told People. "My entire family was very supportive, though my dad was a bit concerned at first, he knows that I am responsible enough that I wouldn’t do anything I wasn’t ready to do, or didn’t want to do.”
Kendall continued:
“Going into this shoot, it was never my intention to be provocative or too racy. It was a beach shoot, and I was wearing beachwear. I am happy with my age, and am not trying to rush into anything too soon. I look forward to all the milestones my teens have to offer - Sweet 16, turning 18, and so on.”
We still believe Jenner should wait a few years before donning so few items of clothing in a nationally-published shoot.
But at least she recognizes the reasons behind the scandal and acknowledges that she's barely even a teenager. Gotta give her - or the publicist behind this statement, really - props for handling the situation in such a straightforward manner.

But the thing is, whether or not she looks amazing, it's not appropriate for her age. Yes, we see kids that age in bathing suits on beaches, but the whole atmosphere of that shoot gives off a vibe that in my opinion is inappropriate. The makeup, hair, poses, etc all remind me of something you have seen with high end models who are of age. When she plays this part, many would look at her and probably think sexually of it. If you don't, then you probably are lying to yourself. It might be harmless, but there is many who will look of that lustfully and considering she is a minor, its DISTURBING.

She has the hottest feet ever. I want to suck her sweaty toes so bad. I'd pay to smell her feet after they've been in tennis shoes with no socks in the hot California sun for a day.

The only thing that makes these pics appear racy is the overuse of makeup and the poses. Besides that, theres nothing wrong with her being in a bikini.

You all need to chill your tits. This isn't that bad. At first, I was like "that's kinda racy" and stuff. But, my friends all take pictures in their bikini, wheather it's at the beach, in the bathroom, ect.. Just because it's in the "public eye" does it seem that way. She totally was mature, when she explained it. & she's right, and she's gonna act her age, which is what she's doing.
