Let the haters hate—
Kendall Jenner just got the last laugh.
The E! star got caught in the middle of some controversy after posting a professional modeling shot on Instagram that
exposed her nipples;
however, it turns out that her racy snapshot landed the 18-year-old a
modeling contract with The Society Management, a New York-based branch
of Elite World, E! News confirms.
According to
Fashionista, photographer
Russell James
(the man behind the risqué shoot) posted the black-and-white gem on
Instagram also and tagged The Society Management and then bam! Jenner
became signed with the agency.
Gotta love social media.

Kendall shared her picture on Tuesday, Nov. 19, and captioned it, "
sneak peak of today's shoot with the amazing @nomadrj ... can't wait for you guys to see the rest of the photos!"
It quickly became the talk of Twitter town, so big sister
Khloé Kardashian Odom made sure to come to Kendall's defense. "Gorgeous

tweeted.
