Birthday Girl Kendall Jennerâs Best Red Carpet Looks
The model, 25, appeared in a Skims lingerie campaign alongside sisters Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner on Friday, February 12. Kendall posed in a red bra and matching underwear in the SŃxy shoot.
âi got 99 problems and looking like kendall jenner would solve all of them,â one Twitter user wrote.
The reality TV personality opened up about her struggles in her response, admitting that itâs not always easy.
âi am an extremely lucky girl. appreciative of all that i have,â Kendall began. âbut i want you to know i have bad days too and that i hear you! you are beautiful just the way you are!!! itâs not always as perfect as it may seem.â
Among those buzzing about Kendallâs body online was Piers Morgan. The commentator came under fire after he retweeted the pHŕšĎo, adding, âIf I were Kim & Kylie, Iâd stop being pHŕšĎographed with Kendall.â Twitter users defended the Keeping Up With the Kardashians stars and slammed Morgan, accusing him of body-shaming.
âBad taste piers. ⌠wether [sic] you like them or not they all have completely different body shapes and are all beautiful,â one Twitter user wrote.
Another responded with, âWhy? They all have fabulous bodies! We should embrace and love what we have lifeâs too short!â
Morgan, 55, defended his comments, tweeting, âApparently itâs illegal to think oneâs HŕšĎter (Kendall) than the others.â He called his critics âfaux-feministâ and âfoul-mouthed,â sharing a pHŕšĎo of himself without a shirt on and daring them to âobjectifyâ him.
Kendall previously admitted in 2019 that she struggled with insecurity. Speaking with The Telegraph at the time, she admitted that it was hard not to compare herself to her sisters.
âMy sisters are a lot curvier than me,â she shared at the time. âThey have boobs and I donât have boobs. Growing up being this little twiggy girl, I saw my sisters and always thought, âOh, no. Am I supposed to be more SŃxy like them?ââ
Kendall admitted she âalmost felt like [she] didnât fit inâ with her family. Eventually, however, she learned to embrace her figure and the differences between her and her siblings. âI like that I have a different vibe to everyone. I like to do different things. And thatâs OK,â she told the outlet.
In 2013, the Victoriaâs Secret angel revealed in a Harperâs Bazaar Arabia interview that she was âconstantly criticized for being too skinny.â
Kendall said: âIâm trying to gain weight but my body wonât let it happen. What people donât understand is that calling someone too skinny is the same as calling someone fat. Itâs not a nice feeling.â
