Last month, Kendall Jenner did a beautiful photoshoot for Vogue Spain where she was modeled as a ballerina and was shown dancing around in a studio wearing a tutu and ballet shoes. What started as a piece of art quickly turned into the target of an angry mob led by the dance community. Dancers from all over the world freaked out saying things like QUOTE - “I know Kendall Jenner's ballet ad is the least egregious of the KarJenner cultural appropriations, but as a ballerina of 17 yrs, I'm pissed.” Another said, “Ballet dancers don't train 40+ hours a week to be represented by Kendall Jenner and her fish feet... Also she is going to hurt herself.” Even famed dance teacher, Abby Lee Miller spoke out saying - “There are so many amazing dancers in the world … Kendall Jenner is not one of them!” Well today Kendall has finally spoken out on her blog to defend herself saying QUOTE - “With my Vogue Spain shoot, I didn’t even know I was going to be a ballerina until I went into hair and makeup. I never said I knew ballet and I didn’t practice beforehand. I just show up to do my job! I have so much respect for women who do their jobs really well and would never purposely try to offend anyone. It confuses me how people can get that upset when there are so many important things going on in the world. But, it’s obviously not going to stop me from working hard and being me.” She was doing her job people! No disrespect intended ballerinas. But I want to hear what you guys think about Kendall’s response so let me know in the comment section below and then as always, don’t forget to subscribe to Clevver News.

I think people need to look up the meaning of "cultural appropriation" asap ..
Katy graham I hate that stupid ass word, and usually the ppl that use it
+Bambaggi Juliette only oppressed minority can be cultural appropriated
Indeed
yeah haha 👌❤
Thank you, people like using words without know what they mean. It like they go "I'm mad and the other people who were mad about something used it too. Sounds good."
Words have meaning people you can't just them around. You cause them to be less potent and hurt the next person's cause who actually uses it legitimately.
people are waaay too easy to offend nowadays.
Listen to this or simply just read the facebook post and you'll get it: kathrynmorganonline.com/episode-21/
+Hailucha Santos Just read it. Point remains that people are too easily offended. I create digital art for a living and I don't get piss offended if someone jokingly draws a stick figure or pauses with a paintbrush in their hand. My training took me 8+ years, not counting all the bullshit I get on a daily basis, and it has been a steep climb for a decent paycheck. Doesn't mean I'm going to put a stick up my ass because Kendall posed as an artist.
Delia Enya yeah im a dancer and i wasnt offended at all i was just thinking that she was gonna hurt her feet
sooooo should nurses get offended on Halloween when people dress up as them? just because nurses work 37+ hours a week, and work 10+ hour days not being able to go to the bathroom, and went to school for YEARS? a nurse is also a career. just because u put on some nurse shoes doesn't make u a nurse. but are they offended by people dressing up as them for Halloween? are firefighters offended when people dress up as them because they had to work hard? no. its not that big of a deal. stop getting so offended. sit down.
I don't think "Dressing up as a dancer" is what MOST people are getting offended about. It's the fact that Vogue Magazine put Kendall in POINTE shoes. In the Ballet world, a young dancer trains hours every day for years in order to obtain their pointe shoes. To gain your pointe shoes is essentially a huge achievement which dancers take pride in and value very much. While pointe shoes are valued for the beauty, precision and hard work behind them, Vogue is practically displaying bad technique and lack of precision behind those shoes when getting Kendall to model in them- an image which ALL dancers work hard to avoid. Imagine if Kendall was portraying a hockey player, but she was holding the stick upside down, while still looking serious- hockey players would've took it as a joke. I'm just saying...
I don't get it. Do doctors get mad when people act as doctors on TV shows? Get a life.
SolOtis Please, try training 45+ hours a week not being able to eat chipotle or McDonald's, not going to social events and being called pretentious because you want to practice your favorite sport and passion. Then come speak to us about "getting angry". And yeah sorry we do not have time to have a life.
I'm a dancer 12+ years now and I find no offence in this! It's literally just a shoot!
Hi Maria, did I say it's difficult to be a ballerina? "Get a life" is a saying for get over it, not literally getting a life. I understand the hard work it is to becoming a dancer but this is a photoshoot and she's a model. That is the job. Now I understand if Kendall was to take a role in a ballet you've worked hard for then there's definitely a reason to be angry but this is the job she took.
Maria Valentina Guichoux Actually in many spreads they get actual models to represent sports...that's the whole point of modelling. You place your model in positions to represent that circumstance. Why go through resource usage searching for a specific artist (dancer, sport player) when you can just dress your already present model like one?!
I see models in sports shoots all the time. I'll hold a football in a picture does that mean I'm a footballer? You kind of just made my point a little stronger also with stating how a SPORTS magazine wants to show off a footballer they may get an actual player. Well Vogue is a fashion magazine so they'll hire a model wouldn't you think? If this was Ballet Magazine and they hire some model then perhaps that should be something to be up in arms about. I think it's pretty logical, sports/sports fashion/fashion ballet/ballet. I'm going to pass on making a comment of your example of replacing me in my family's "Christmas photoshoot."
Abby Lee Miller was low key advertising 😂
Juliana tru😂😂
ikr 😂
Well she isn't getting work in prison.
Ayenate' Lawson lol she was supposed to be released a week or so ago, but it still hasn't happened
H R it already happened
Kendall Jenner isn't the problem, she just did her job, Vogue Spain is. Ballet is an art form that takes decades to master. Vogue should've picked a ballerina to do the photoshoot.
Maria Tego yeah but vogue is a fashion magazine. Obviously, they are going to put on their covers a model or a celeb. Vogue isn't going to pay a ballerina (unless she is also a model like Candice S) just to portray the proper positions a ballerina do for their photoshoots
Maria Tego lack of perspective. It was not a Ballet lesson. Have you ever paid attention to what Kendall was saying on the Video?
Maria Tego Why? Modeling is about act too and she was just doing a role. So now actors have to stop doing what they do because they don't represent professions properly and it's better that a real proffesional (a doctor for example) do the acting part to reprrsent his/her profession because they know how it is.
Mar S well then maybe Vogue should have chosen someone who could pull the role off
Maria Tego i agree with you
It is not culture appropriation but it does suck that that modeling job could have been given to a ballerina who worked her ass off for years only to be given to a skinny chick who probably doesn't know 2nd or fifth position. Ballet is one of the most difficult pieces of art that one can put their body through. So I get why there was so much outcry by dancers everywhere.
you're probably 1/10 who actually get why they'd be pissed-.- i mean if i was a dancer I'd want to be represented by someone who actually put in the effort and the passion for ballet. If anything though i wouldn't call out Kendall but rather the people in charge of the shoot
moonrockers1962 there is a lot of models who have never done ballet who are required to model a ballerina ... so with that line of thinking , all those adverts we see of a happy family doing whatever modelled by single people and auditioned children should be scrapped because it's a lie and they are not really a family ..?
moonrockers1962 THANK YOU someone gets it
moonrockers1962 finally someone understands. I'm a dancer
moonrockers1962 I'm a dancer and I didn't get mad why? because some dancers pose from magazines like they were models and the models don't get mad so...
so.... ballerinas can call CULTURAL appropriation now!? ok, we all need to just get a grip..
I'm waiting for that day when, I don't know, an old italian coffee owner (for example) will scream at a Starbuck "It's cultural appropriatioooooon!!!". I'm waiting ^^
This is just plain insulting to people who actually have their cultures appropriated. If you wanna be offended that she did this shoot, fine, but don't cry "cultural appropriation" because this does NOT apply. I get that dancers work hard and I could understand people wanting an actual dancer to do this shoot, but ballet is not a culture to be appropriated and that's just plain stupidity.
Love lmao Im not gonna read it
awe sweety, angry that I didn't read your essay I didn't ask for? lmao
GhostInTheWired stop talking about ballerinas like we’re animals, we are people, so we can call it out!
People get triggered by everything these days...
Do you really think this situation calls for a joke about PTSD? Not funny.
+cotton....wha...? what are you talking about?
EXCUSE ME?!?!??!?! WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY??!?!
See what I did there hehe... I agree. As Kendall said herself, there are so many more important things in this world, but oh well.
Triggered is a term that is used for a situation or image etc that causes someone with PTSD to have a panic attack. Triggered doesn't mean easily offended. People are triggered if they see something genuinely upsetting that makes them recall past trauma. Even if you don't understand the association. So yeah. Saying triggered in that way is derogatory.
鄧紅紅 probably everything the Kardashian/Jenner family do
i admit that her dubai bullshit was cultural appropriation but this photoshoot is ok i dont get it
Because you're not a dancer (or maybe you are). Let me explain it to you. Us dancers work our asses off for these shoes. She just put them on and voila! So it's kinda disrespectful. If you wanna learn more and get a better explanation listen to this podcast: kathrynmorganonline.com/episode-21/
That's dumb, because you don't hear, i don't know let's say boxers, when model pose while acting like they box...
Hailucha Santos Calm ya tits though. We get it, but just because she put on the fit doesn't make her a dancer and widely known as one. She ain't taking ur job if that's what worries u. People this is her job. U dancing to a song doesn't make u the songwriter does it. -_-
Hailucha Santos im actually a ballet dancer and i don't find it offensive.. at all? you don't need to be a baker to cook something, this is in the frame of a photoshoot/art project and using ballet could probably help out express what they're trying to say, i think that cultural appropriation is when u disrespect a whole culture and group of people from the same said culture, while here she just posed? she didnt even pretend to be a ballet dancer its just a photoshoot sorry for my rambling im really tired
it is not culture appropriation tho
I agree with Abby Lee Miller. Vogue should of picked a ballet dancer to do the shoot, if they were going to market ballet clothing, shoes, or even do ballet poses. A ballet dancer is the embodiment of all those things. The pictures looked awful with the poses Kendall did, because she's not a trained ballerina. It's not Kendall's fault, it's Vogue. They just put a famous model who knows nothing of ballet on the shoot, to get more recognition. But it's not fair to all those male/female ballet dancers who could easily do the ballet shoot. Why not get someone who can do the job? People seem to forget ballet is not a theme, it's art.
yes! thank you
mouna3242 o
mouna3242 dude, if that wasn't Kendall, we wouldn't be talking about this, people wouldn't even pay attention to the photos.
mouna3242 why y'all so sensitiv??
I get your argument, but do you really think that the men and women modeling hunting gear are real hunters? They aren't, they are called models, modeling a specific thing in a specific setting. Kendall Jenner and this ballerina shoot is the same thing.
Like Kendall said, she only came to do her job not prance around. Stop getting so offended.
Chatsire Please, try training 45+ hours a week not being able to eat chipotle or McDonald's, not going to social events and being called pretentious because you want to practice your favorite sport and passion. Then come speak to us about "getting ofended"
But like, the fact you guys are blaming Kendall for it all even because it's just a photoshoot. Vogue Spain had her do it, not her. You are "getting offended" for how y'all are acting. Don't deny it, yeah you can't eat chipotle and McDonald's. What does that have to do with the photoshoot? She's only doing her job, and this is a famous magazine and they chose Kendall for that certain topic. Yeah, calling her out, insulting her, and all of that is showing how offended you're getting. Don't deny.
sooo should nurses get offended on Halloween when people dress up as them? just because nurses work 37+ hours a week, and work 10+ hour days not being able to go to the bathroom, and went to school for YEARS? no. its not that big of a deal. stop getting so offended. sit down.
Maria Valentina Guichoux
If an actor plays a doctor in a movie, doctors around the world would get butthurt like you ballerinas😂 That's literally what you sound😂
you are rigth , and they work a lot more then that!
If Kendall had been asked to be the lead dancer in a ballet performance or something, then I would see why people would be mad. But this was a photoshoot. The ballet thing was just a theme. People need to chill.
Sel G she was literally just doing her job. People will find any reason to hate on those women.
Ikr
I think Kendall is the more likeable sister, but she was not doing anything right. She could have gotten hurt. She didn't even lace her point shoes right. She didn't point her feet. And yes she's pretty and all but the only reason she somebody is because of Kim's sex tape. Kendall doesn't even have a real talent at least the other sister have a real job. If it wasn't for her luck of being born in to that family Kendall would be a nobody. And that's why us ballerinas get mad at the idea of someone who is not a dancer acting like one. It's not hating it's some what offencive to us, because we've work all our life's and Kendall just gets there and she gets the opportunity of a lifetime.
+Leslie Gonzalez are you for real, she's not a ballet dancer she's a model ffs, why do u care it's a photo shote and these days people are using any reason to piss and moan it's pathetic
Emma Smith Wearing pointe shoes is not a game, if you knew a minimum, you would know that you can break your ankles, and then bye bye Kendall. Vogue did a bad job, there is no arguing about that. Pointe shoes aren't for non professionals, models or not. End.
It's a lack of respect for ballerina who worked for years. What did Kendall do to be famous ? Nothing.
it was a nice photoshoot. i dont get what is there to get upset about
AleynaSeymen something bout the shoes that she isnt wearing it right 😒😒
Araceli Mendoza i did ballet for 5 years when i was little idk its just a damn photoshoot she didnt claim to be an actual ballerina lol
AleynaSeymen true but pple just dont understand just because shes kendal jenner she can be whatever and whoever she wants but where pple got offended on how they dedicated to themselves since day 1 and out of nowhere here comes kendal just because she isnt wearing the shoes right 😒😒😒
AleynaSeymen because people who do ballet don't train 24\7 for someone to dress up as a ballerina and have that have wrong tecnicke and she could really hurt herself and I understand it was her job but yeah
Gabby Punter would people be mad if she was dressed as a gymast or a farmer or would this be as controvertial if it was done by a male model?? this is a magazine cover. it is to reflect the beauty of ballet. she wasnt on the cover of a magazine dedicated to ballet she was on the cover of a fashion magazine. and by no means am i a kendall jenner fan haha hell no. but the girl was doing her job:) my brain just explodes trying to understand people these days
do they ask real dentists to shoot tooth brush or tooth paste ads. NO
so Kendall as a ballerina. not a big deal.
agree!
Sharon Crasta right on point
Love the comparison. So true. 👍💯😊 #teamkarjenners
The difference is everyone knows the work, time, and effort it takes to be a dentist. The same is not true for ballet.
Deepika Wilson You are so wrong.
Not a Kardashian fan whatsoever...but I have to agree with her on this. She was only doing her job and who's to say if she was even dancing at all???
i, personally, have been a dancer for only 4 years, which isn’t even that long, but the main reason this situation frustrates me is because she really could have injured herself. it takes years of training before it is safe to go en pointe, while she just did it in one day. however, i don’t think it’s her fault, as she said she’s just showing up to her job. it’s vogue’s fault for telling her to do unsafe moves that she probably wasn’t even aware could seriously hurt her.
@@aesthetictumbler4004 I agree a have been dancing in ballet for 11 years and I have no idea what they where thinking putting someone who has never danced in pointe shoes
Everyone just gets butthurt so easily nowadays🤔
Ikr so true
You don't know what dancers been true we are crying everyday. ...we have 4 hours class a day with no stopping its normal we are pissed of
EmO msp this is a fucking photo shoot not practice or a play stop being so childish
Kylie Jade atleast they could get a real dancer
EmO msp they didn’t need to it doesn’t matter man up for god sake everyone is so soft nowadays
So if she draws a stick figure are artist all over the world also going to get mad to?
fr. People are too sensitive on the internet
Maria Gutierrez Yeah. People think they need to take someone else's job. They're dancers, not models. They're artists, not models. Models are models.
oml I never thought about it that way
Nope I wouldn't get mad
Maria Gutierrez 😂 💀 pshh
Lmao people actually got mad over this? It was a damn photoshoot. Being a ballerina was just a concept for the magazine and she wasn't trying to represent the whole dance instead. People who can't/don't dance still wear ballerina stuff for like Halloween or as a basketball player, baseball player, etc. It literally was just a photo and they didn't choose a real dancer because she's known everywhere and vogue wants money.
Lol true!
Yass tae tae I agree
Words right from my head
The thing is, a non-ballerina can hurt themselves with pointe if you haven't mastered the correct technique and balance. It's actually extremely dangerous. Wear it sure, but there is a line.
Infinite_Infires i
Omg !!! Really ? This is so stupid !!!! CULTURE APPROPRIATION ????? WHAT ??? Chill people, it's a photo shoot, she's doing what's she's told. This is so stupid. Stupid. So stupid.
I'll explain for all the non ballet dancers that are out there. The photo of Kendall en Pointe is not just angry driving for us, but also painful to watch. Vogue Spain did a very reckless thing by giving her those, she's not wearing them properly. Pointe shoes can break your ankle and create injuries for life if you don't know How to use them. I don't understand why people blame Kendall, I mean it's really not her fault, those photos weren't this bad, I just can't understand why vogue didn't pick an actual dancer, it would have made way more realistic poses and would avoid any danger. Thankfully Kendall wasn't hurt, but it's very offensive for dangers that sacrifice their childhoods and would dream to be in her place after all the hours of training, while she did nothing like that. Honestly though, I don't really understand the hate she got. I mean its passed now, she definitely isn't the one to blame, she did her job, being a model, period.
Melody Headburn THANK YOU SO FREAKING MUCH THIS IS A PERFECT EXPLONAITION!!!!!!!
Melody Headburn This is exactly my point thank You! We train for hours to make sure our ankles are strong enough. I don't care about 'cultural appreciation for ballerinas' but more that her manager was willing to put her in a position where she could have been seriously injured!
TRUTH
I don't get why people get butt hurt over literally everything now like wtf? Someone could say they love popcorn and get mad about it
Em Mary how dare you! I'm allergic to popcorn. I'm offended.
Em Mary I'm offended
I’m gonna try it. I love popcorn
Love No one said that it isn't an art form, but there are other things that are more serious that someone doing their job, and modeling isn't easy either.
As a 13 year old ballerina of ten years this was not offensive. My ballet teacher and friends all agree.
Niccis studios stfu... No one asked u if ur one or not...
+Purple Purple Bitch chill lol. I think her opinion on this is more relevant than others as she's part of the fucking culture that's getting so easily offended.
Also work on you're spelling and grammer then come back. I'll wait.
😂👍 I'm not offended ether but I get how some are hehe
That's because you're a sensible human being, my dear.
I'm not offended, I just think it was a stupid move to out her in Pointe shoes with no training. That's a lawsuit waiting to happen. Professional dancer here, btw ✌
Is like saying any actor can't ever do a ballerina role, beucause they aren't ballerinas...
I don't understand why did they get so offended, like its obvious she doesn't know what she's doing. she's a model, not a dancer. Everyone knows that, I don't think people actually believe that she was correctly dancing and stuff, it was just supposed to be a visually pretty ad, I don't get it.
Thi Kim Hoang Huynh that's the problem "visually pretty" Ballet dancers have muscle and blisters that others are disgusted by... We have great posture and elegance this twig has none... It's stereotypicalto place a skinny girl in a tutu and call her a ballerina
It's more than that, they didnt show if she had shoes on and putting an untrained person in Pointe shoes and telling her to twirl around is very dangerous so it was more of a concern that their tone deafness could actually hurt her
Those dancers were just in they feelings for no reason. Like it really wasn't that serious.
Their dance is just as important to them as someone's religion och culture. So if you have a problem with cultural appropriation and not this, then you have double standards.
Harmony G people work their asses of to get on pointe that's why they're freaking out
It was, because as a dancer, pointe shoes are so hard to achieve that when you see someone just wearing them like that it's just kinda disrespectful. We were always taught (as dancers) that you have to earn your pointe shoes, and Kendall didn't (and it's obviously not her fault that not what I'm saying). IT just offended me a lot.
Ikr. I mean why would they get offended? They didnt even got offended at the movie Black Swan where an actress is wearing pointe shoes at the first place. smh
It is serious for dancers. You would have to be a serious dancer to understand
if the model wouldn't be kendall then there won't be an issue.
my16bithero true
my16bithero cause the thing is if it was a regular model we don’t know her background... the reason everyone is mad is because it takes a lot of training, and a long time to train your feet
People will find a way to get offended nowadays lmao.
Ms. Jesus Christ that's offensive
It's scary
I'm not gonna lie.. I would have snapped with a harsher response to al the people getting pissed at something so trivial
Not on live TV you wouldn't! Lol
Trust me you don't know me. I would.
Didn't see a problem with the shoot, but I did when they put her in actual Pointe shoes and asked her to walk and twirl around in them...thats a lawsuit waiting to happen, she could have twisted an ankle
i would have to but considering ot was Kendall Jenner people would have killed her because how dare she get upset? it's culTuRal aPpRoPriaTion. she's doing exactly what she's expected to do: modelling and if that means that she has to wear ballerina clothes then she'll do it. IT'S HER FUCKING JOB.
Well i do understand why ballerinas are all mad to Kendal
Being a ballerina is a lot of work starting at the age 3-5 years old and keep dancing 3-5 class per week and they has to feel the pain in such young
Learning a lot of technique etc
And everything wasn't easy it's not like learning hip hop or salsa
Ballet is different
N putting Kendal Jenner with out any preparation n know about ballet is quite rude to ballerinas I think ,but actually I think it's just a misunderstanding ballerinas should be mad at vogue since they the one who put her in that photo shoot
i think it's not about a model portraying as a ballerina in a photoshoot but Kendall Jenner being a ballerina in a photoshoot is what offended everyone.
true
But..... She IS a model and she WAS only portraying a ballerina.............. lol
Cass M ll
Cass M why the f would it be upsetting? Jeezuz!!!
Tanya Smith yeah but it was because of who she was, if some random model had done it, this wouldn't have happened. People just hate the Kardashians (hopefully that's how you spell it)
She looked gorgeous in the photos but honestly, if you're going to do a shoot about ballet dancers, get a ballet dancer. Ballet dancers don't train their whole lives, going through injury after injury, having bleeding aching feet and toes every night just to have a pretty face with no technique to represent a community that works so hard from a young age. No hate on Kendall, I'm upset that vogue decided to choose her over a professional dancer that has the proper technique and training
Mr. Magoo you don't know that. There could be a lot of athletes that don't like having models portraying their hard work. It's just that because Kendall Jenner is so much more famous that the media brought attention to it. If a photo shop is based on a sport, than the smartest thing to do is bring an athlete for the shoot so the model doesn't look like an idiot trying to imitate them.
Yeah AGREED! Thank you! This is just a good understanding of the one perspective. They're not "butt hurt" they are extremely PASSIONATE about their ART! If we didn't have passionate artists we wouldn't have such beautiful art. WHY is everyone so quick to just judge everything as stupid? Like oh- tons of people share the same view- must be stupid :P instead of being open minded like, well I wonder WHY?! I may not AGREE but I can at least try to understand- before*** making up my silly little old opinion.
Because it is stupid. These dancers called it cultural appropriation. It's not. People are overreacting.
GennyKoala couldn't have said it better myself! I'm a dancer as well and I wasn't mad at Kendall to begin with, I'm more worried she could've gotten hurt, I'm angry that Vogue didn't choose a ballerina for their shoot.
No kidding, I've only done modern dancing before and know how badly she could hurt herself trying to pull off some of the stereotypical poses they expect. It's all well and good to tell her to give them a leap but if she doesn't do it properly she could really hurt something. Especially with them not having told her so she had no time to stretch for action poses or consult anyone as how to properly pull off some things. Most likely why she looks like she's sitting for a fair amount of the pictures.
kendall has a point. I mean she's right she is just doing her job.DAMN PEOPLE ARE EASY TO OFFEND IN 2016
Jus tin TOO**** I'm tRiGgErEd
Jus tin NOT ONLY 2016 HUN, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN ALWAYS EASY TO OFFEND!!! IT'S 2018 AND PEOPLE ARE STILL ALWAYS OFFENDED!!!😂😂😥😮😝😝😟😓😪
i, personally, have been a dancer for only 4 years, which isn’t even that long, but the main reason this situation frustrates me is because she really could have injured herself. it takes years of training before it is safe to go en pointe, while she just did it in one day. however, i don’t think it’s her fault, as she said she’s just showing up to her job. it’s vogue’s fault for telling her to do unsafe moves that she probably wasn’t even aware could seriously hurt her.
She doesn't have a point, because it takes a lot of training to learn to do point. I'll walk myself out.
it was a nice photo shoot but as a dancer myself i do have to agree that it never good to see someone who has never danced/trained a day in their life, try to model as a ballerina/dancer. she could have easily fallen and hurt herself in those pointe shoes, i have before and it's very painful and takes a long time to heal if you hurt an ankle.
Ballerinas are so extra lmao, I don't even like Kendall but she was just having fun
asmrbiblestudies ikr
Savannah Yi stfu you sensitive bitch
It’s not ballerinas in general, it’s triggered bitches who happen to do ballet
Savannah Yi where do you think you dumb bitch
Savannah Yi yeah so why is your dumb ass asking me where I came from??
This is annoying to someone like me, because you EARN those shoes. you don't just wear them. she could've hurt herself, and let's admit it... she NEEDS to get over her box.
Cultural appropriation? WTF? What culture are ballerinas? LOL.
We are our own culture like any other sport, art or hobby. Dance has a long history that changed with the times just like anything else, look it up before making comments.
My biggest concern was that they put her in pointe shoes which can look pretty but dancers work years for the strength needed in their legs, ankles, feet and core to not damage themselves when they go up on pointe. She could have seriously hurt herself if she tried anything properly. My anger is with Vogue and their apparent belief that you can just chuck anyone in a pair of pointe shoes without training and they won't hurt themselves.
^she's not competing in a ballet competition, she's just performing her job as a model, why react like it is so much of a big deal?
Someone who is not a trained dancer dressing up and posing as a ballerina is not cultural appropriation. Cultural appropriation is when white people wear elements of the culture of POC communities they have oppressed for years, and are still oppressing, as an accessory or costume. The dancing community is not in away oppressed or at a disadvantage and they do not suffer or face stigma when Kendall Jenner puts on a pair of pointe shoes and poses as a ballerina, so just relax.
If y'all's concern really was for the fact that she could have hurt herself because she is not trained in the technique required for dancing in pointe shoes, you wouldn't have harassed, bullied and condemned her just for doing her god damn job. Sit down. Your 'culture' is not being appropriated and you are not concerned about Kendall, your community is literally just bullying a 21-year-old woman because she put on pointe shoes and you didn't like it. Stop trying to justify your bullying.
I'm not saying that our culture was appropriated. The original comment asked what culture are ballerinas and i'm simply saying that we are our own culture and expressing my concern for her safety. To be perfectly honest I didn't give a shit about what Kendell Jenner did one way or another, not everyone agrees with or cares about what outspoken people in their communities say or think. Don't take the feelings of an entire community and assume everyone agrees.
Edleen Agarao did you watch the video? She was walking around and spinning (probably to get 'action shots'), if she's in these shoes, she'll fall and hurt herself and Vogue will have a lawsuit on their hands.
Next we will hear real doctors hate on actors on Greys anatomy. Guess what..they won't as doctors are smarter.
They really said she had "fish feet"😂
People are just stupid. Those internet bullies blaming and insulting Kendall for just DOING HER JOB (which is doing commercials, photoshoots, etc) when she didn't even manage herself alone, like there's a lot of people that are in charge of what she does. Kendall doesn't deserve so much hate, she didn't even asked for being famous. The Jenner's sister doesn't deserve that much hate, people.
(Sorry for my bad English)
So if Kendall does a photo shoot wearing a sombrero are you guys gonna cry cause she's not Hispanic? Lmao
well Kim K did post a pic of her having a dreadlocks then ppl flipped bec she isnt black lol. so yea probably
What do you mean? If she did that people would FREAK OUT.
If Kendall wants to be a ballerina for a photoshoot, then she should be a ballerina. Everyone can be whatever they want to be. Haters will hate no matter what.
those ballerina bitches are just jelous of Kendall's fame
she's too tall to be a ballerina!
you are dumb
andreeaabro not really, Karlie Kloss was (is) a ballerina and she's taller than Kendall. And the fuck, tall people can be good dancers
The thing is she didn't even choose HAHAHAHA why isn't anyone blaming vogue?
Please, everyone gets offended these days. A person breathes, people are offended already.
those angry ballerinas are just jelly benches and i'm not even a fan of the kardashians
Sarah Hamill-Stewart yes, everything especially that miranda is for babies
Sarah Hamill-Stewart are you a jelly bench?? bitch stfu and go away
Please, try training 45+ hours a week not being able to eat chipotle or McDonald's, not going to social events and being called pretentious because you want to practice your favorite sport and passion. Then come speak to us about "getting angry"
Jealous of what, HER BAD TECHNIQUE???
+Kaylee Snow 😂👍
Did they say cultural appropriation? wtf?!
lmao, I don't get how Kendall filming an ad will affect ballerinas all over the world
the ballerinas are jealous because ballet isn't popular anymore and they work so hard. I guess its hard to have people appreciate a shoot of someone pretending to be a ballerina when your work as a real ballerina doesn't bring in admiration like it used to.
also someone just pointed out in another comment that they were mad that her poses were wrong. (I guess it is cringey to see someone pretend to be you and do it badly).
tbh she's just trying to do her job like so many other people in the world, she doesn't get to decide what she does, her manager does.
Monica Xu well I didn't say they are right. Just guessing at why they might be mad
personally, i’m just frustrated because vogue took something that takes years of training to learn and had her do it in an hour or two. i’m not mad at kendall, like she said, she’s just doing her job. vogue really should not have put her en pointe without any training. also, if they wanted to have a ballet photo shoot, the least they could do is hire a real ballerina.
I do think dancers were somewhat overreacting, but at the same time vogue could have used this opportunity to showcase an ACTUAL ballerina
Cecilia Thorne The thing is ballerinas train for years to get en pointe. Kendall Jenner instantly went up in pointe shoes making them look like a play toy, in actuality she could have been seriously injured and her feet would have been deformed. I don't think it is Kendall's fault, but I do believe that the people directing the photoshoot should have done their research. Also they made ballet look like it was something that people do just for fun. That is not the case, if you do ballet you better expect literal blood, sweat, and tears over in, and there is some seriously boring training before you're get to them beautiful, elegant, and fun things in ballet. Don't make something as beautiful as ballet look like child's play.
I don't think people are mad because she did it it's more that she looks awful. When you've been dancing ballet for years you see that stuff. Maybe somebody could've showed her proper way to do it.
a wild suga appears
-iva !! Little she knew that she would be doing a Ballerina shoot in her 20. Otherwise she could have learnt the skills when she was 3yrs. Just to get her technique right for a 1/2day shoot as a model.
Yass!
No they're angry because she's a Jenner. People are so pathetic nowadays lol
No most of us are angry because they tossed her, an untrained model, a pair of $100+ Pointe shoes, and thought she could walk and twirl in them without hurting herself, she's lucky if all she did was slip in them. They had a potential lawsuit waiting to happen
I don't think people were actually pissed at her, they were more upset with the concept of the photoshoot
people get triggered by anything nowadays. cultural appropriation? really? magazines do so many different concepts, this isn't any different. If they always used people who do that specific job or activity for every photo shoot then models wouldn't have a job. It's not like they hired her to represent the art form, they just chose a pretty theme
"It confuses me how people can get that upset when there are so many important things going on in the world."
Welcome to the internet, where people get mad and say so because they have nothing better to do.
I think Kendall is the prettiest one from her family 😍😘
Leilany Rodriguez and the realest one
Leilany Rodriguez and the most fake one
She literally is boring to look at, I have seen more attractive women in the grocery store. Kourtney or Khloe are the best looking.
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. She may be boring to you but she's gorgeous in my eyes. ;) #respect
Kai Bader Well some people like plain women who are skin and bones so good for you. I wouldn't look twice at her.
I mean, I don't quite agree with the dancers, but considering how many backbreaking hours they work, it's a little understandable.
As a professional breather, I am seriously offended that all breathers are being represented by you
It was just a modelling job why do people get so worked up over something that doesn't even matter but while they're upset she's getting her millions wtf worry bout yall self
I don't understand how this became controversial. It wasn't even a big deal. So what she pretended to be a ballerina....
Pierce Horizon it's literally the same thing as someone dressing up as a ballerina on Halloween, I don't get it. I used to dance, I'm not offended
exacly
But you don't go out and buy $100+ Pointe shoes if you have no training. you'll seriously injure yourself trying to dance in them. That's the real problem that should be addressed. She's hurt herself and probably sue vogue, so that was not a smart move
Well I see why they're mad. They have worked so so hard everyday of their lives and they get no publicity but someone who hasn't danced professionally gets to act like she put in the effort
For everyone commenting, "I don't understand why they're so sensitive..." you have not right to criticize people who have literally given up their lives to the art of ballet. I have been a ballerina for 11 years, and I cannot even begin to explain to you how utterly difficult our lives our. We have given up completely every minute of every day, our entire social lives, time spent with family, and so, SO many more sacrifices along the way. Why do it? Passion. No, I do not intend for this to be seen as a letter of complaint as it is perfectly not, however, a statement of truth to those who do not understand. So you have ballerinas in which all they have ever known is the beautiful yet ruthless world of ballet, and people like, let's say per chance, Kendall Jenner. The ballerina has complete knowledge and skill in this art form, and has dedicated her life to it. And then there is Kendall Jenner, a being who does not possess the grit, skill, determination, and talent of ballerina. Who gets asked to attend a ballet themed photo shoot for Vogue? Kendall Jenner. SHE is the one getting paid to represent hours of tears, blood, and sweat when quite frankly, it looks as if she hasn't even considered stepping foot into a ballet studio. The pictures prove my point completely.
No, us ballerinas are not complaining or trying to draw attention to ourselves. It is simply that the fascinating, beautiful art form of ballet is being represented by people like Kendall Jenner. Ballet has been around for centuries, and it is one of the most pure, strict art forms you will ever discover.
And Kendall Jenner decides to take it light heartedly and in a naive way, where she thinks the whole world will accept her, as she disrespects the whole community of people, who all they have ever known is wretched hard work, and the unforgiving world of our first true love, ballet.
Say all you want, but if you are not a dancer nor have you ever experienced the life of one, you are only being arrogant and hypocrites.
Kendall Jenner has shown utter disrespect, and quite frankly, she deserves the same amount of respect that she has given towards some of the most down to earth, honest hard working people you will ever meet; ballerinas.
SHE's a MODEL who was doing her JOB!
I doubt anybody working even has the time to think about all these things?
I mean she had to pose as a ballerina...how the hell does that connect to disrespecting u guys?
get a life no body is saying u guys don't work hard...
I think its like the hardest to be a ballerina but calm the fuck down woman!
SHE IS A MODEL... A MODEL...it's her JOB to do as she is told by the company or whatever she is WORKING for..
why the hell should she care about any of it? sweetheart I understand you're doing some real hard work and ballet isn't a joke but how does any of it relate to kendal???
I mean she's just a model who did her JOB as a MODEL
Jesus Christ just stop with the senseless uproar
Emma, do us a favor and keep your shit opinion to yourself lol
E Person oh my gosh, too many stupid people these days. She was doing her job. It’s like you’re saying doctors in the movies have to go to medical school before they shoot the video, too many triggered people these days
No offence, but would you watch a TV show with average or unattractive looking real medical doctors. No you wouldn't. Take my statement for whatever its worth. Also, would you watch beautiful medical doctors who don't know how to act? No you wouldn't.
People nowadays are super sensitive asf 🙄 The photo shoot was great, she was just doing her job.
the outrage would be to put kendall on a stage and have her dance a performance trying to come off as a ballerina, but on a magazine photoshoot dressed as a ballerina?? thats what models freaking do, theyre the hanger to the clothes pieces, let the ballerina dance on stage and let the models pose in front of the camera
the only thing i could think about was her turnout
Elsa Wood sameeeee
how the hell was that a cultural appropriation!!??? no offense to the dancers around the world, but don't delegitimize a legitimate cultural issue. I. e. cultural appropriation.
I honestly think the majority of the people complaining were pissed off because of the person that Vogue chose for this shoot. If Vogue really wanted a ballerina shoot, they could have chosen one of the thousands of tall, slender, and absolutely gorgeous REAL ballet dancers who need the money.
jumsi seo you don't know how hard it is to be a dancer huh?..... I FUWKING hate people that say thing about dancing if they don't dance
Lize Lodewyckx, I dance, and I think the same way the original comment states. It’s ridiculous, yes, they could have gotten a proper ballerina, but no, that is not cultural appropriation, that would be considered as improper cultural representation, which is done quite often.
jumsi seo I agree... they're definitely misusing the term
I can see where dancers are coming from and I see where kendall is coming from. People really need to stop getting so offended over such a small thing like this, it's honestly pathetic and petty.
and also Kendall is a fucking model. She was called in for a modeling job. It's her JOB. Models sometimes have to pretend that they are someone else to get the pictures right, if she had to pose as a dancer then fine she posed as a dancer. It's a magazine for christ sake. get over it. Kendall did her job and that was to pose for a vogue shoot as a ballerina. Stop getting offended people.
🤔 Plus if you give a Modelling job to a Ballerina, because its about dance, couldn't the models claim cultural appropriation, because they have taken a modelling job. We are in a catch 22 here, What a conundrum, If a tree falls in a forest and there is no one around to here it fall... LOL
I'm a ballerina and I'm not offended at all. Kendall didn't say she was a dancer or say anything rude about dancers.
When I saw the photoshoot I got mad. Not because I felt disrespected or anything, but because her technique is horrible. I hate seeing non dancers on pointe work. It just looks horrible and it hurts my eyes 😂 not hate towards her, I just don't like non dancers using pointe shoes because it looks ugly asf.
Seriously leave her alone she's actually doing something with her life
*10 chicken nuggets yelling at little girl dressed as a ballerina on halloween* CULTURAL APPROPRIATION!! YOU'RE NOT A DANCER!!
Any other Dance Moms fan get shook when they saw Abby at 1:03
that wasn't a "clap back" it was almost an apology
Blah blah blah. She looks cute, mkay? Very pretty and feminine and that is what they wanted. They did not want to represent ballet as it really is, they were making a nice to look at photos. That's it. They are not representing ballerinas.
okay, but they could have just got ballet inspired clothing, or other “feminine” clothing. instead, they chose to belittle ballet dancers, putting her en pointe with no training what so ever. even if you don’t see why some dancers are mad, surely you can see how unsafe this is.
Wtf you could get a little salted but how could you call this cultural appropriation
It’s just annoying that people think that that’s actually what dancers do. As a dancer it makes me super mad to see her trying to portray a ballet dancer. She’s wearing pointe shoes in the add but in reality a dnacer has to train for years and years to build up ankle strength to be able to wear pointe shoes it’s just frustrating.
This entire situation is ridiculous. People have way too much time on their hands. Especially those hard working dancers who work so many hours a week.
See, to be honest I would have been a little annoyed, but some people just took it out of proportion, plus as Kendall said there are more important topics to give more attention at x
I don't like her... but I'm so fucking fed up with those who just can't let fashion designers models photographers and fashion magazines alone... like just get a life... it's called ART.... not POLITICS..
god people will make a fuss about anything wont they
Literally Kendal Jenner's job as a model is just to be in front of the camera. As for the whole shoot and the whole concept of whatever she's shooting is not up to her descision. People need to know that.
This is the same shit as that pepsi commercial. It's not directed or scripted by her. Kendal Jenner is just a paid model whos doing her job and people need to get over it.
Gladys Wong cultural appropriation don't even exist ,i don't know how people can find it offended
so dressing up now is going to offend people...guess all those little girls who are gonna be ballerinas for Halloween better beware...jeeez...haven't we all (most females) pretended to ballet dance and just had fun?
I wouldn't mind if the model had good technique, or at least had proper posture and position... but honestly it's painful to see ballet horribly done, ESP for a famous photo shoot. I can understand ballerinas perspective. To them, Kendall Jenner is not showing proper ballet skills so it's painful to see their art not being represented beautifully.
Honesetly, its like how soldiers or police watch television shows and wince at how unrealistic it can be.
So much more important things going on in the world? Yea there are and if you feel that way why don't you use your platform to inform people and make a difference... Not a good choice of words Jenner. All you Kardashians/Jenners do is make sure no one is talking about the real issues but talk about Kylies new lip colour or clothing you guys wore.
Omg,my little sister was a ballerina last halloween,please don't hurt her!Even if she isn't a professional dancer!
omg people nowadays get offended by every freakin thing it's so annoying... it was just a photoshoot she was not there to represent ballerinas, she was there to be photographed, to be a model... how can that be offensive?? people need to chill
like i know she's not a professional ballerina but most of us also aren't professional photographers and we take pictures with our phones anyway...
One day Kendall will be asked to act as a beggar for her photoshoot and people will still get upset!
It was so kind of Kendall to even speak up about it!
This is like the team when someone said the saying "tone-deaf" is an offence to deaf people
"It confuses how people can get that upset when there are so many important things going on in the world." This is like the generic excuse to use whenever you offend people.
my two cents: it was a Modeling job that used ballet. Not a ballet performance that used a model. I am beginning to really dislike "cultural appropriation" being used in the wrong context. I also can't stand how it seems people can't even breathe because it's copying the way someone else breathes 😒. Not everything is an insult!
Why would a real ballet dancer want a modelling job? This spread was in Vogue, not Dance Spirit. Her technique in dance, or lack there of, is not being critiqued in Vogue. Her face, her body, and her clothes are being critiqued. She's doing her job. Get a grip people. Get a grip.
since when was ballet a culture, girl bye.
Rational me: who cares, it just a photo shoot concept
Dancer me: AH, HELL NO
From a dancers perspective, this can be upsetting because dancers work so hard for YEARS until they are just able to TRY ON those shoes.
I'm a dancer and this doesn't bother me at all. I just don't get why so upset?
I work very hard in a sport/trade which is misrepresented ALL THE TIME. it's not something to get mad about, you just have a little giggle and move on with your life. Anyway, it's the people that decided on the theme that are to blame, not Kendall.
So glad im one of those lucky ones who remembers growing up in the 90s. It was so good. The people who complain are the same ones who bark on about anti bullying while bullying.
but honestly how hard is it to actually hire a ballerina for the shoot?
How is that culture appropriation, next if someone dresses as a soccer player for halloween it will be "culture appropriation"
exactly! she was doing her job, for my opinion she is the only person in that family that deserves to be famous... waiting haters to hate on me now but I dont freaking care :D
People are offended because being a ballerina/dancer is something you have to be committed to and they are not models. I think it also has to do with her family, I don't blame them, a model should not portrait as a dancer unless they are one
Damn it..... Its like ppl on the internet just waiting for her to do something so they can attack her!
If these Ballerinas don't sit down somewhere calling this cultural appropriation. That's offensive that they did that to real cultural appropriation. Anyone can pick up dance shoes and learn how to dance, even if they are bad at it, Is dancing with the stars cultural appropriation? ,She wasn't claIming to be the prima,
This is absolutely ridiculous, lol...
She wasn't trying to be a ballerina, she's a model...
Apparently the ballet world is full of petty jealous people...
I guarantee not one of those ballerinas would turn down any opportunity to model in any Vogue...
"So many important things in the world" *Flashback to the Pepsi commercial*
Bruh isnt abby in PRISON how she tweeting
