访谈录 2014-11-25&11-27 当红超模肯达尔骄傲做自己

 -She's one of our hottest stars treading¹ everywhere, Kendall Jenner, the 19-year-old sister of Kim Kardashian. Kendall has just signed on as a new face of Estee Lauder, and she's opening up about her famous family, her runway shows and so much more. Here's ABC's Jojo Chen.She's the in-girl fashion model of the season, but while sister Kim is busy trained to break the Internet on a cover of People magazine, Kendall Jenner is just trying to break out, making a name for herself as a model.

-That was what the jealous² girls say that Oh, she's treading in the Kardashian/Jenner name and cashing it for a career.

-Yeah, in reality, I worked pretty hard for this. I'm grounding around doing tests. It wasn't like I just got it magically and it just happens.

-So what made you want a model? 

-I were just always been looking it, these super models, who were just like so amazing to me. They were like super heros. I want to be the best role model I can be to a little girl or to a little boy or to anybody.

-You early on banned Kim and your sisters from coming to the shows. Why?

-Banned is a strong word. It was more than usual understanding. I think that if my sister was sitting front row, and my sister is who she is. And, I know it sounds kind of weird³, but it will almost take the attention away from what I'm trying to do on my own.

Now, a new lamb, marking her young career, just this weekend becoming the newest face of Estee Lauder.

-And what makes it such a big deal?

-Estee Lauder is one of the most prestigious⁴ brands in our entire business.

It doesn't hurt that she's got 16 million followers⁵ on Instergram and over 9 million Twitter followers, but she's still a teenager, appearing naked⁶ in photo shots and res* on the runway.  

-But would you say to critics? Say, why show this much of your n*? 

-Because it's gonna argue with my check-ups. So it's a pretty view of **. You know what I mean, I do not regret it. 

-So you don't care about these folks who were saying. Oh, she's an exhibitionist, don't get over it.

Also rising eyebrows⁷ recently, those questions about her relationship with the certain hot young singer.

-That's one of the rumors⁸ saying you're dating Justin Bieber.

-No, he's been a, he's a long time friend of our family, so everybody loves to assume⁹ things, but no.

-Are you in a relationship?

-No, I'm not. I'm truly focusing on my career. If it comes, it comes.
