Naomi Campbell Dodges Questions About Kimye Vogue Cover, Implies They Didn't Deserve It [Video]
Naomi Campbell has graced the cover of American Vogue five times, an honor she's earned.
Today she was asked what she thought of the Kanye West and Kim Kardashian Vogue cover on Australia's "The Morning Show," and she tried to deflect the question, according to Us Weekly.
"I do not want to comment," she said before giggling.
Campbell eventually said, "I'm a fashion model and I've been working for 28 years. And when you get a Vogue cover, it's a build in your career... a stepping stone to achieve that."
The hosts tried to pry more information out of her by saying, "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," she responded.
But she didn't need to say much more. It's obvious that Campbell is not a fan of the cover, which is understandable. It wasn't too long ago when models were frequently featured on the front of glossies. Nowadays, celebrities are mostly on the cover.
It's not just Campbell who disapproves of the cover. Plenty of people took to social media to express their disappointment.
Sarah Michelle Gellar, for example, tweeted, "Well......I guess I'm canceling my Vogue subscription. Who is with me???"
Some people even claimed that Anna Wintour was over for allowing Kanye West to get his way. In her editor's letter, she said that West did not campaign for the cover and that she chose the couple because of their influence. And because they can "define the culture at any given moment" and their "presence in the world shapes the way it looks and influences the way we see it."
