Kendall And Kylie Jenner’s Vintage T-Shirt Debacle

On Thursday, Kendall and Kylie Jenner faced another controversy in what has thus far been a very dramatic 2017 for the sisters.  The pair released a collection of t-shirts as a part of the latest “Rap vs. Rock” collection for their Kendall + Kylie line featuring their own face and initials superimposed over iconic images of rappers like Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac.

As it turns out, however, aside from simply being called out for their lack of sensitivity on Twitter, the Jenners also failed to reach out to the estates of these musical legends to secure the legal rights to the images. A fact Biggie’s mother Voletta Wallace made crystal clear writing on Instagram, “The disrespect of these girls to not even reach out to me or anyone connected to the estate baffles me.  I have no idea why they feel they can exploit the deaths of 2pac and my Son Christopher to sell a t-shirt.  This is disrespectful, disgusting, and exploitation at its worst!!!” And she wasn’t the only celebrity to speak out against these particular designs, Kelly Osbourne and Paris Jackson also took to social media to express their distaste for the reality stars’ designs.

Sharon Osbourne tweeted one of the t-shirts featuring Kendall’s face overlaying an image of her husband Ozzy Osbourne yesterday, writing, “Girls, you haven’t earned the right to put your face with musical icons. Stick to what you know…lip gloss.” And clearly, the t-shirt struck a nerve with Ozzy and Sharon’s daughter Kelly as well judging by her most recent post to Instagram.
