He has done it again. Kendal Jenner closes 2018 as the highest paid model of the year, for the second consecutive time! At 22 years old, the only model from the Kardashian-Jenner clan has entered into her bank account $ 22.5 million between June 2017 and June 2018 thanks to her contracts with firms such as Estée Lauder, Miu Miu or Calvin Klein.

But not everything has been a journey of roses for the Californian who is not exactly the most popular among her fellow professionals. Read on to find out what sparked the controversy.

A rivalry with other models skyrocketed after Jenner testified in an interview for LOVE magazine that she didn't understand why other models were doing so many fashion shows. “From the beginning of my career I have been very selective with the shoes I make. I have never been one of those girls who do like 30 shows or the m **** whatever those girls do,”she said. The responses of those "other girls" were immediate.

“Not all models come from Calabassas. They come from Somalia, from the Siberian tundra, from a town in China, a caravan camp,”complained through his Instagram Teddy Quinlivan, one of the models that was given as alluded to. "If you're lucky as a model, you might be able to earn enough to pay the debt to your agency."

After the stir caused by the accusations, Jenner explained in a statement to PEOPLE that her words had been taken out of context, but for many colleagues, the damage had already been done.

What have they thought now that I am once again the highest paid of all?
