More Details On The Resurfaced Footage Of Raven-Symon Being Brushed Away For Kendall Jenner Mid-Interview

On February 3, The Shade Room posted throwback footage of Raven-Symon, apparently on a red carpet. Furthermore, the clip appeared to have resurfaced on social media but was initially shared by TooFab via the outlet’s YouTube page on February 12, 2016.

In the clip, a reporter asks Symon to share the “one beauty product” she couldn’t “live without.” However, as Symon begins to respond, a hand taps the reporter, seemingly trying to get her to pay attention to something else.

As the camera shifts, viewers can see Kendall Jenner standing behind Symon, unbeknownst to her.

“Oh, it’s okay, someone’s more important so I’ll let them go head,” Symone then says before walking off camera as the reporter then greets Jenner.

Per The Shade Room, Symon spoke about the incident the following day while hosting on ‘The View.’ The actress explained that she understood the “rise and fall” of everyone’s celebrity status, seemingly including her own. However, she wished the producer on the red carpet had been more kind in asking her to step aside for Jenner.

While speaking, Symon seemingly reenacted her interpretation incident.
