The Kim Kardashian-Kanye West Vogue cover continues to
generate reactions worldwide from different quarters. The latest among the People
who cannot really wrap their head around
the fact that a reality star would ever be featured on so esteemed a fashion
magazine is Naomi Campbell.
But she's a little more diplomatic and reserved in her
response than Sarah Michelle Gellar was on Twitter when she threatened to
cancel her subscription to the magazine.
When asked about the KimYe cover, Naomi Campbell declined to
respond, eventually saying "I'm a fashion model and I've been working for
28 years."
"When you get a Vogue cover, it's a build in your
career…. a stepping stone to achieve that."
That wasn't a good enough answer for the hosts of Australia's
TV show, The Morning Show.
They went on to ask "Kim and Kanye haven't earned the
right to be on the cover of Vogue?"
"Those are your words, not mine. I'm being politically
correct," Campbell replied.
Campbell has graced the cover of Vogue 5 times in her
storied, 28-year modeling career. She knows a thing or two about the fashion
world and that magazine in particular
The media firestorm surrounding the Vogue cover has been both
hilarious and disheartening.
Anna Wintour, the magazine's editor, wrote a public letter
stating that Kanye West did not pay or beg Wintour to put his fiancee on the
cover of the magazine.
But many people think otherwise.
