Kendall Jenner Defends Her Racy Bikini Pics: I Was Never Trying To Be ‘Racy’ or ‘Provocative!’

Kim Kardashian’s 14-year-old sister, Kendall, defends her bikini beach shoot and says it wasn’t anything but a harmless modeling gig

Kendall Jenner was the cause of several raised eyebrows when she released sensual photos from a recent bikini photo shoot, but the Kardashians’ 14-year-old sis says she wasn’t intentionally trying to be a bad girl!

“Going into this shoot, it was never my intention to be provocative or too racy. It was a beach shoot, and I was wearing beachwear,” Kendall told People July 28. “I am happy with my age, and am not trying to rush into anything too soon. I look forward to all the milestones my teens have to offer–Sweet 16, turning 18, and so on.”

Kendall, who’s just beginning her modeling career, also said her parents, Kris and Bruce Jenner, were completely on-board with the shoot and approved everything she did.

“My entire family was very supportive, though my dad [Bruce Jenner] was a bit concerned at first, he knows that I am responsible enough that I wouldn’t do anything I wasn’t ready to do, or didn’t want to do,” the well-mannered teen said.

Do you think Kendall Jenner’s photo shoot is age appropriate?

is she going 2 become a slutty mess just like Miley Cyrus? What’s next? A tounge ring? Her parents r such morons 4 letting their daughter be doing this. The bikini itself is not bad but how she’s posing trying 2 look…older…should i say is what’s wrong.

just my opinion

It was weird, cause in some of the pics she looks like one of her big sisters..the, er, not very pretty one. Then in others I thought she looked really beautiful. But wether she is even AWARE of it, she IS being sexualized far too young. My parents would have DIED before giving permission for photos like that of me to be taken for ANYONE to ogle. They don’t know whos looking at them, she is soo young! As would I with my daughters. I sound like 85 years old when I keep saying, “what the hell is wrong with these parents!!?”..when really I am 25. I don’t get it. but then I grew up in the country where people are raised to have self respect and class, and daddies actually tried to protect their daughters virtue, not exploit it. Yeesh this gets me going.

She’s a Kardashian and since she was what, 11 her whole life’s been on television so to be completely honest this isn’t a shock. She’s 14 and took some modeling photos its not like she’s posing for Playboy or Maxim …yet

i guess 14 years old seems kind of young, but nowadays, i feel like many 14-yr olds are growing up too fast, not just the ones in the spotlight. not to say that that’s a good thing, but it’s the truth. i don’t think she’s being slutty or racy. she’s just modeling. maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to choose this type of clothing (or lackethereof) to model in, but still. if that’s the career she wants to have, then that’s what she’ll be doing.

I am really tired of all the Kardashian news, way too much. None of them have talent for anything except for going to parties and taking their clothes off. It is sad really that Mom is guiding their life in that direction. Now it looks as though the little ones are getting in on the act. Pathetic! I see nothing wrong with her wearing a bikini, 14 year old girls do it everyday, it is all the makeup on the child’s face that I find a little repulsive.

Now there is a family that would be on welfare if it weren’t for the fact that they know how to sell sex. Vapid and devoid of any socially redeeming qualities, except taking their cloths off.

With the Kardashian girls – there is no NEED to TRY – !!! RObert (dad) has got to be spinning in his grave. They are all pathetic – ESPECIALLY the mother. Then again look who she’s shacking up with.
