Kendall Jenner is speaking out about her controversial ballet photo shoot.
"It's so funny that people are getting pregnant and married -- or having crazy drama -- but my drama is ballerinas being upset at me! With my Vogue Spain shoot, I didn't even know I was going to be a ballerina until I went into hair and makeup," Jenner wrote.
"I never said I knew ballet and I didn't practice beforehand. I just show up there 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. It confuses me how people can get that upset when there are so many important things going on in the world. But, it's obviously not going to stop me from working hard and being me," she said.
Jenner, who was also featured in a ballet-inspired video for Vogue Spain, faced heavy backlash after the issue debuted in September.Dancers and dance instructors, including "Dance Moms" star Abby Lee Miller, criticized the model for her incorrect form and improper dress.
"[I] cannot be a fan of this shoot," Miller wrote in a since-deleted comment. "There are so many amazing dancers in the world... Kendall Jenner is not one of them!"
Close friends and fellow models Gigi Hadid and Bella Hadid will also take part in the show.
