Can you still remember how the teen Kylie Jenner looked like when she first appeared on TV? After making her lips 'fuller' than the way it used to be, Kylie shocked the public again by posting a 'racist' photo in her Instagram.
Last Easter weekend, Kylie posted on her Instagram account the controversial 'blackface' photo. Kylie appeared darker after her whole face seems like covered with black paint. However, Kylie was quick to explain that her face was not actually painted black. She explained that the blackface effect was due to the neon and black lights reflecting on her face. Kylie did not apologize on the matter but advised her bashers to calm down and don't be hyped over the issue.
Apparently, Kylie's rumored beau, Tyga was to the rescue. Tyga, according to sources close to him, didn't think Kylie's photo was racist. He also believed that Kylie's actions were due to her immaturity. However, Tyga was quick to advice Kylie on being wiser and more sensitive on her actions.
"Tyga feels like Kylie has crossed the line with this new shoot, and really and truly shown her age," a source. If she was older, wiser and more mature she would never have done something that could be interpreted in a racist way," a source close to Tyga said.
"He obviously doesn't believe she's racist, and understands it was art. But, it was insensitive and a little hard to justify. Tyga feels it just shows her immaturity and constant need for attention. He's not mad angry about it, just thinks she hasn't thought about what she was doing," the source continued.
Tyga believed Kylie has a good heart and is only expressing herself in the picture. He believes that Kylie, as a young individual, just want to feel the beauty of herself. For Tyga, Kylie only expressed her confidence and he is proud of her.
Staying positive amidst the controversy, Kylie later on tweeted "Yes, in another world I wish I could have pink hair and blue eyes and covered in sparkles. But in this world I'm happy w the way God created me," The post received more than 17,000 likes and thousands of shares from her 8.79 million followers.
Unlike Tyga, there are some celebrities who responded differently on Kylie's photos, among them are Karrueche Tran and Zendaya. Both believed first that the photo is not racist. However, Zendaya later on rephrased her statement saying that celebrities should always be careful of what they post online.
