It’s not everyday that one of the most famous models in the world takes over as the bartender at a local bar. But on Monday night, that’s exactly what happened when Kendall Jenner made an appearance at TownHall.

Jenner, who rose to fame on “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” came to the Short North restaurant on Monday night to promote her tequila brand 818. The tequila is now available at TownHall, and City Editor Hanna gives it her stamp of approval after personally getting a shot from the supermodel.

Jenner, who was only in town for one night, stood behind the bar and poured shots of tequila, handing them out to fans at the restaurant.

“I never went to college, so this is my college experience,” she told the crowd.

She took pictures and videos with fans before exiting, and gave Columbus a shoutout on her Instagram story with the message "❤️ you Columbus.”
