Your support makes all the difference.Rebel Wilson claims she is the victim of a Kardashian-Jenner "smear campaign" after bad-mouthing the reality TV family and calling them talentless.
Wilson recently refused to present an award with Kendall and Kylie Jenner during the MTV VMAs, saying: “They aren’t really about talent."
“Kim got famous from the sex tape and I just went to acting school and worked really hard,” she said, during an appearance on KIIS FM.
Now, however, the Pitch Perfect actress said she has accused the family’s publicity team of a “smear campaign” against her following the comments, which she says were prompted by the radio station in the first place.
“I’d be very happy to debate the Kardashians anywhere / anytime / any topic,” she tweeted.
“Or maybe their publicist can just stop the smear campaign against me because I made one prompted comment about them on Australian radio?”
Wilson said that she was over the whole thing, however, and wanted to put it past them, adding that she sent the family some flowers by way of clearing the air.
