Kendall Jenner’s glamorous appearance at the Cannes Film Festival reportedly hit a snag last week, when the model mistakenly boarded the wrong boat in an attempt to reach an exclusive bash hosted by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen.

According to The Sun, Kendall, 20, was due to arrive at Allen’s Octopus superyacht for the party, but was tricked into boarding a different boat instead of the official party transport.

The Mail Online reported that Kendall was invited onto the boat as she waited on the jetty, believing the crew members were from the Octopus.

However, she soon realised her mistake when the pranksters steered the boat towards a different yacht entirely. Thankfully, the reality star eventually persuaded the crew to take her back to the jetty where she could get the right boat, reports the Mail. Later, the social media star was said to have described the pranksters as “random Eurotrash guys”.

Unfortunately, that wasn’t the only awkward moment Kendall had to endure during the Cannes Film Festival this year. The statuesque beauty was left stunned recently when a French reporter appeared to faint during his interview with her, collapsing onto the red carpet dramatically.

His sudden fall panicked some members of Kendall’s posse, who reportedly thought the man had been shot, but the model soon regained her composure and walked away after it emerged the man had only been pulling a prank.
