Michael B. Jordan offers his explanation as to why some people reacted strongly to his alleged romance with Kendall Jenner. Speaking to GQ for his cover story, the Johnny Storm of "The Fantastic Four" believes it was race-related.
"It's the world we live in. They see white and black. I don't," he says. "Kendall's a friend of mine, you know. I don't know her, like, that well, but I know her enough. People's perspective on that is what it is. I don't f*cking know. I don't live my life to make other people happy."
Jordan continues, "It's so weird, though, right? A lot of black fans were feeling like, 'Oh, my God, he should have been with a black woman' and that whole thing. I get it, but on the other hand it's, like, relax. You know - it's 2015. It's okay!"
The actor, who was romantically linked to Kendall Jenner earlier this year, adds, "People can like one another, not necessarily from the same history or culture or whatever the f*ck it is. It's just the new world, you know what I mean?"
During the interview, Michael B. Jordan also talks about courting roles written for white actors. "I told my team after I finished Chronicle that I only want to go out for roles that were written for white characters. Me playing the role will make it what it is," he explains.
