So after Kanye begged mentioned that Kim “deserves” (or something like that) to be on the cover of Vogue, Anna figured to let them make it, after previously vowing to never put her on the cover. And. She can do that. It’s totally her prerogative to change her mind. But she’s wrong.
Now. Don’t get me wrong. Kim is a BEAUTIFUL woman. And…she can dress….and…well….she makes nice clothes too! And…
Anyway, some are cheering this on. And they have the right to do so. But they are also wrong.
Oh. And “world’s most talked about couple!?!?!” Anna? Are you sick?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
This is VOGUE for crying out loud! Dah well. Here is Anna Wintour’s response to the criticism (which is NEVER a good sign when you have to do this SMH).
“Part of the pleasure of editing Vogue, one that lies in a long tradition of this magazine, is being able to feature those who define the culture at any given moment, who stir things up, whose presence in the world shapes the way it looks and influences the way we see it. I think we can all agree on the fact that that role is currently being played by Kim and Kanye to a T. (Or perhaps that should be to a K?)
As for the cover, my opinion is that it is both charming and touching, and it was, I should add, entirely our idea to do it; you may have read that Kanye begged me to put his fiancée on Vogue’s cover. He did nothing of the sort. The gossip might make better reading, but the simple fact of the matter is that it isn’t true.
There’s barely a strand of the modern media that the Kardashian Wests haven’t been able to master, and for good reason: Kanye is an amazing performer and cultural provocateur, while Kim, through her strength of character, has created a place for herself in the glare of the world’s spotlight, and it takes real guts to do that.”

Okay, girl. Whatever you say, Sis.
Just for fun, let’s look at some negative reactions (excuse the language):

I just want Anna to know that by putting Kimberly Kardashian on the cover of Vogue this month, she has lowered the caliber of a timeless mag

Anna Wintour has lost the plot with putting Kim Kardashian on the cover of Vogue,a magazine which is about class and real talent.

Anna Wintour YOU ARE OVER! L

I need to step away from Twitter right now. L

I’m willing to accept celebrities on covers because at least they have a career and a sense of style.This is NOTHING about fashion L #Vogue

“Kim, through her strength of character, has created a place for herself” Anna Wintour Is that what they’re calling a sex tape these days? L
— Tom + Lorenzo® (@tomandlorenzo) March 21, 2014
Ouch.
Now. There are some supporters who are firing back at the critics. One argument is basically that Kim’s vagina put her entire family on and made them rich, and what have our vagina’s done for those of us who don’t like the cover?
I….I mean, okay. If THAT’S your argument, then I’ve basically already won. THAT’S the only thing you can say to defend her? LOL
Congratulations, Kim, on a dream come true!
