Kendall Jenner Explains That Surprising Nipple Piercing

However, just because she was feeling a little gutsy doesn't mean she wasn't afraid of what she was getting herself into.

"[I was] so terrified, I'm laying on the bed like ‘Why am I doing this,'" she continued. "Honestly, it hurt, but wasn't as bad as everyone made it seem and maybe because everyone hyped it up and I thought it would be really, really bad. Then it wasn't as bad as I expected."

The 19-year-old supermodel first teased fans with the idea of the racy piercing when she wore a relatively sheer black dress to ESPN's ESPY Awards earlier this summer. Flashes from the camera illuminated what looked to be a metal bar with two balls on each end going through her nipple.

Kendall's rebellious move is yet another connection to her younger sister Kylie Jenner, who once posted a photo that suggested she decided to get her nipples pierced, posing with her hands up and circling her breasts on the Snapchat app while writing, "new jewelry in other secret areas."

Aw, besties!
