WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE KIM & KANYE VOGUE COVER- ANNA WINTOUR

No doubt this Vogue cover got a lot of attention worldwide. Turns out most religious Vogue followers weren't impressed at all. Well, editor-in-chief of Vogue Magazine Anna Wintour tells  "Fashionista" why she chose the celebrity couple.

“I see the role of Vogue to reflect what’s going on in the culture. The first celebrity that I put on the cover of Vogue was Madonna, and that was considered completely controversial at the time, too. It’s such a long time ago probably no one remembers, but she was a very controversial figure. Now she’s part of the establishment. I think if we just remain deeply tasteful and just put deeply tasteful people on the cover, it would be a rather boring magazine! Nobody would talk about us. It’s very important that people do talk about us. Going back to Estée Lauder’s decision to make Kendall Jenner the face of Estée Lauder. What a fantastic decision that was! They have a wonderful brand that’s very traditionally American, and they decided they want to shake it up and reach a different audience. Now and again one has to do things like that. I think it’s part of the excitement and part of being a journalist. I hope another Kim Kardashian comes along this year!”
