Fans can get a little crazy sometimes — Michael B. Jordan should know. ;
The 28-year-old actor and Kendall Jenner sparked dating rumors ;back in May after a photo of the two of them leaving the Met Gala after-party together surfaced online. ;But the speculation didn’t bother Jordan; it was the prejudiced remarks he received from fans that really upset him. ;
“It’s the world we live in,” Jordan explained to GQ magazine ;(he’s October’s cover star). “They see white and black. I don’t. A lot of black fans were feeling like, ‘Oh, my God, he should have been with a black woman,’ and that whole thing.”
He continued, “I get it, but on the other hand it’s, like, relax. You know — it’s 2015. It’s okay! People can like one another, not necessarily from the same history or culture or whatever the f**k it is.”
Tell ’em! We’re with the actor on this one — it’s 2015, people! ;Let’s stop talking about who’s allowed to date who and get over it already. ;
Jordan confirmed to the magazine that he and Jenner aren’t dating, but they are friends. Just friends. ;
“Kendall’s a friend of mine, you know. I don’t know her, like, that well, but I know her enough,” he said. “People’s perspective on that is what it is.”
