I did not intend to hurt anyone - Kendall Jenner on her failed Pepsi ad


Model and reality TV star Kendall Jenner's came under massive heat in April following a Pepsi ad she partook in. Pepsi was slammed by outraged people for the 'insensitive' commercial, as many accused them of exploiting the Black Lives Matter movement and for daring to use a white model as the peacemaker in the BLM inspired ad.
Kendall spoke about the backlash for the  first time in an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians which aired on Sunday night.


"I just feel really, really bad. I feel really bad that anyone was ever offended. I feel really bad that this was taken such a wrong way and I genuinely feel like s--t. I have no idea how I'm gonna bounce back from it."

"I would never purposely hurt someone ever. I would, obviously, if I knew this was gonna be the outcome I would have never done something like this. But you don't know when you're in the moment, and like, it was the most…like it was…like it was so…like I just felt so f--king stupid. The fact that I would offend other people or hurt other people was definitely not my intent and that's what got me the most, is that I would ever make anyone else upset."
