Kylie Jenner has found herself in a sticky situation on social media this evening (Apr. 4). After posting a picture of her entire face in a darker hue, the 17-year-old reality TV star received backlash from social media users who said the teen put on a public display of blackface.
Another image from her photo shoot — that has now been deleted — also had the caption: “What I wish I looked like all the time.” You can view the photo below.
One of the pictures also had a comment on her Instagram account from actress Zendaya Coleman who said “Eff it up,” but later retracted her statement on Twitter by saying, “I didn’t see it like that at first…that’s crazy,” adding “At first, I saw more of an avatar look but thank y’all for keepin me on point….we all gotta stay aware of what image we project #lessons”
