Ballerinas (yes, ballerinas) are angry at Kendall Jenner.
Is she a threat to the ballet world? Is she doing her plies wrong?
More like, "why is a non-dancer dancing around a ballet studio? How dare you, Vogue."
Jenner starred in a ballet-themed video for Spanish Vogue, which many took offense to since she’s not a trained dancer.
She may not be a trained dancer, but she is a model and we are talking about Vogue.
On the other hand, Jenner made no mention of liking ballet in the video.
Dancers were mad, mainly because they thought putting Jenner in pointe shoes was disrespectful.
Aaaand more:
"I am formally requesting an apology from @KendallJenner & @voguemagazine for that weird ballet video. Please stop.
"Kendall Jenner’s ballet shoot is literally so offensive on so many levels I am exhausted yet cannot sleep because I’m having NIGHTMARES about ."
"Kendall Jenner trying to do ballet and I’m so OFFENDED it hurts really vogue, you had to use kendall jenner for that ballet shoot. you couldnt use a beautifully skilled dancer or a model trained in ballet.
Perhaps the biggest stinger came from Dance Moms Abby Lee Miller, who gave Jenner a proper tongue lashing on Instagram.
"I don’t make a habit of commenting on all the dancers that post pics with incorrect technique. I would never get anything else done!" Miller wrote.
"But I cannot be a fan of this shoot. There are so many amazing dancers in the world… Kendall Jenner is not one of them!
"Shame on Momager, Kris Jenner!!! She never made these kids take dance class.
"She better get North West to the @aldcstudiola before it’s too late!"
Neither Jenner nor her family have made any comments about the backlash via social media.
Do these dancers have a right to be outraged? Did Jenner disrespect the ballet community by dressing up as a ballerina?
To be fair, she never claimed to know what she was doing, nor did she boast about her ballet skills.
