Kylie Jenner Responds to GoFundMe Backlash; ‘This Got so Twisted’

Kylie Jenner Responds to GoFundMe Backlash;, ‘This Got so Twisted’.

Kylie Jenner took to Instagram on Monday to address the backlash she’s been receiving on social media.

Fans got mad at the 23-year-old after she asked them to donate to a GoFundMe campaign.

The campaign was for her old friend and celebrity makeup artist Samuel Rauda, who required major surgery after a serious accident.

.

Many were upset that Jenner, who is estimated to be worth $700 million, only donated $5,000 and was asking fans to help.

.

In her new post, Jenner cleared up the “false narrative” and lamented that she was just trying to raise “awareness” when “all of this got so twisted.”.

[I] thought I’d post on my stories to gain more awareness if anyone also felt compelled to share or donate.

She clarified that she and Rauda no longer “have a personal relationship,” but that she still thought he was “the sweetest.” .

I saw my current makeup artist and friend Ariel post about Sam’s accident and his family’s gofundme and I called Ariel immediately to see what happened to Sam.

Jenner also addressed her $5,000 donation, saying she chose that amount to help the campaign “reach their original goal.” .

After learning in more detail about the accident it compelled me to visit his gofundme which was set at 10k.

They had already raised 6k so I put [in] 5k to reach their original goal, Kylie Jenner, via Instagram
