Fans say, "Where's Kendall Jenner?" slamming the model over old ad amid George Floyd riots

The death of George Floyd has raged riots. These riots have taken over the globe as netizens are protesting against the brutal display of racism in the USA which took the life of the African-American. During such a time, the old Kendall Jenner's Pepsi ad resurfaced on social media and Twitterati is calling out in light of the recent events. Here's what it is about. 

Kendall Jenner slammed on Twitter over old Pepsi ad

Kendall Jenner's Pepsi ad is from 2017 which shows an idyllic version of protests and march. The commercial begins with Jenner talking a walk in slow motion and mingling with all the people in the protest. She crosses over to the side of the policemen and hands a Pepsi can to the officer. The cop takes a sip and the whole crowd cheers in appreciation as their problems seem to have vanished by that one sip of Pepsi.

However, the Twitterverse is calling out Kendall Jenner's Pepsi ad for supposedly trivialising and appropriating such a grave social issue for a corporate cause. Many seem to agree that Pepsi and Kenner's version of protests will never be a reality. The resurfacing of the Pepsi ad and the subsequent criticism against it has now forced the company to pull off the ad altogether.
