Back Off, Bullies! Kendall Jenner Befriends Alessandra Ambrosio After Mean Models Gang Up On Her At New York Fashion Week

It looks like not all high-fashion models hate Kendall Jenner!
The teen catwalk queen- who was the victim of mean girl models during New York Fashion Week earlier this month- cozied up to iconic Victoria's Secret stunner Alessandra Ambrosio at a Milan show.
"With the beautiful @kendalljenner #backstage at the @bottegaveneta show," the Brazilian beauty, 33, captioned a cute Instagram shot on September 20.
The 18-year-old reality star walked alongside Ambrosio at Italian house Bottega Veneta's runway- and was all smiles backstage in a new photo.
Milan fashion week seems to be going much more smoothly than her New York turn: As RadarOnline.com reported, "cruel" models taunted the budding fashionista off the runway during the Big Apple's most stylish week of the year.
"They started acting so bitchy- some even put out their cigarettes in Kendall's drink!" an insider revealed to In Touch. "Models can be cruel, especially with someone new and entitled."
The veteran models apparently had a problem with Jenner's reality TV roots and her sister Kim Kardashian and brother-in-law Kanye West's high-end connections.
"The other models worked so hard to get a spot on the runway and didn't think it was fair that she was there," the insider added.
Fashion industry insiders have recently spoken out about Jenner's new career.
"Unfortunately, it affects non-celebrity models by taking away paying jobs and great opportunities for non-celebrity models to succeed in their career," MSA Model Management's Sierra Illig recently told Fox News. "It is hard to see our modeling jobs being handed over so quickly to celebrities simply because of their fame, familiar face, and Hollywood connections."
