Kendall Jenner's Controversial Bikini Photoshoot

Posted on July 26, 2010

Kendall Jenner, 14, is the focus of controversy after photographs of her bikini photoshoot hit the Internet. Kendall is made to look older than her age in the photographs. Kendall is the half-sister to the Kardashian sisters, Kim, Kourtney and Khloe.

E says Kendall has the support of her sisters and her family. Kourtney Kardashian even posted the photographs of Kendall on her blog.

Kim Kardashian also shared the photographs and wrote, "They turned out sooo gorgeous!! I am so proud of Kendall. She's going to take over the modeling world... you just watch! :)"

Photographer Nick Saglimbeni is befuddled by the controversy.

Saglimbeni told E, "Kendall was a total professional. She is a natural model. We kept the poses and shots very PG-13. None of the photos are racy or sexualized in any way. I don't understand what the controversy is about."

Update: Kim turned out to be correct about Kendall's modeling career. Now that she's older and a successful model the only controversy surrounding her photographs are accusations of photoshopping, such as a recent Skims campaign report by Daily Mail, Elle and other media outlets.
