Kylie Jenner, Amandla Stenberg Twitter Feud: Tyga's Girlfriend Drags Rumored Ex Jaden Smith

Kylie Jenner found herself in a middle of a feud with "Hunger Games" actress Amandla Stenberg on Twitter after the latter accused her of appropriating black culture. The "KUWTK" star's rumored ex-boyfriend, Jaden Smith, was even dragged into the whole issue.

The whole feud started when Kylie Jenner uploaded an image on social media featuring her new cornrows on July 11. But Amandla Stenberg, 16, left a comment that left Tyga's girlfriend reeling.

The "Hunger Games" actress wrote, "when u appropriate black features and culture but fail to use ur position of power to help black Americans by directing attention towards ur wigs instead of police brutality or racism #whitegirlsdoitbetter."

The "KUWTK" star was reportedly "horrified" by the comment, said Hollywood Life.

"Kylie is horrified Amandla would say such things to her, especially because she should know how engrossed in African American culture Kylie is," the source alleged. "She feels it's an unprovoked attack, and possibly something that stems from Jaden turning her against her."

Amandla Stenberg has been rumored to be dating Jaden Smith, the rumored ex of Kylie Jenner, especially since the "After Earth" actor showed up in the "Hunger Games" actress' prom. Rumors have been alleging that Jaden Smith wasn't exactly a fan of Kylie Jenner and Tyga's relationships.

Kylie Jenner responded to the comment while also giving shade to Amandla Stenberg, "Mad if I don't, Mad if I do.... Go hang w Jaden or something."

This wasn't the first time that Kylie Jenner has found herself on Twitter feud as the "KUWTK" star has been engaged in a lengthy war with Blac Chyna, the baby mama of Tyga.

Amandla Stenberg, meanwhile, has been trying to raise issues of cultural appropriation as proven by a video clip titled "Don't Cash Crop My Cornrow" she uploaded earlier this year.

"What would America be like if we loved black people as much as we love black culture?" she said. "Appropriation occurs when a style leads to racist generalizations or stereotypes where it originated but is deemed as high-fashion, cool or funny when the privileged take it for themselves. Pop stars and icons adopted black culture as a way of being edgy and gaining attention."
