Kendall and Kylie Jenner launched a limited edition vintage clothing line. The collection features photos of legendary music artist including Tupac, Notorious B.I.G. The Doors, Pink Floyd and Ozzy Osbourne. The Jenner sisters are selling the limited T-shirt collections on their websites for $125.

However, the Jenner sisters received criticism for superimposing their faces over the photos of the artistes. Several even expressed their displeasure and called the entire clothing line "disrespectful." Voletta Wallace, Notorious BIG's mother, slammed the Jenner sisters.

After the uproar, Kendall took to Twitter to apologise for the line and issued a statement saying that the designs were not well thought. "We deeply apologise to anyone that has been upset and/or offended, especially to the families of the artists," Kendall said.

But this is not the first time Kendall sparked controversy. Let's take a look at Kendall's 7 biggest controversies.

Pepsi controversy

Kendall was slammed for featuring in a protest-themed commercial that mocked the movements such as Black Lives Matter. The "moment" campaign ad was later pulled down because of the controversy.

Fyre festival controversy

Vogue Spain's cover photo controversy

Before India, Kendall appeared on the cover page of the Vogue Spain in 2016. She dressed as a ballerina for the cover photo, but ballet dancers and fans criticised the model for the photoshoot.

"I didn't even know I was going to be a ballerina until I went into hair and makeup. I never said I knew ballet and I didn't practice beforehand. I just show up to do my job! [...] I have so much respect for women who do their jobs really well and would never purposely try to offend anyone," she said after the backlash.

Mango ad controversy

In 2016, Mango's Tribal Spirit ad featuring Kendall was also accused of cultural appropriation. Several slammed the company for featuring a white model in an ad that is inspired by the African savanna.
