we've never seen Michelle Obama's bottom in a selfie
As Kanye West statements go, it's probably one of his most absurd.
The lovestruck rapper talked up fiancee Kim Kardashian in a new interview in which he claimed the reality star is more influential in terms of style than the First Lady Of The United States Michelle Obama.
He told Ryan Seacrest: 'There's no way Kim Kardashian shouldn't be on the cover of Vogue.
'She's like the most intriguing woman right now. She's got Barbara Walters calling her like everyday,' he said.
And bizarrely he claimed the reason Kim was more influential that Michelle Obama, was because the First Lady could not share a bikini pic like Kim's recent bottom-baring pose in a white swimsuit.
'No one is looking at what [Barack Obama] is wearing. Michelle Obama cannot Instagram a [bikini] pic like what my girl Instagrammed the other day.'
On that point he is right, as we've never seen the First Lady's bottom in a selfie.
While Michelle Obama will clearly not want to take on that challenge, it seems Kanye is still fuming at Kim being persistently overlooked by his friend Anna Wintour for a Vogue covershoot.
The Vogue editrice is a big fan of Michelle Obama, who has been pictured on the cover twice.
Vogue describe Mrs. Obama's style as 'bold and unapologetic.'
And she is widely seen as a champion for American fashion designers, bringing new designers like Jason Wu into the fashion spotlight.
'Her approach to dressing has earned her a reputation as something of a fashion maverick- particularly in Washington, D.C., where women have traditionally valued conformity over individuality.'
She herself simply says: 'Women should wear whatever makes them feel good about themselves.'
And while Kim has certainly become something of a cultural phenomenon in recent years, it seems that her influence has not extended to the ivory towers of the fashion bible.
Kanye revealed he was delighted when Kim was chosen to cover CR Fashion Book, the new publication by Former French Vogue editor Carine Roitfe.
'Carine Roitfeld supports my girl. That's a breakthrough,' he explained. 'There's a wall of classism that we are breaking through.'
Maybe the memo hasn't reached Anna Wintour just yet.
Personally, I dont think he's wrong.

Sad to say he is right, but it's not good in the way he is trying to express it. It's actually down right ? horrible that she has more influence than Michelle Obama. I couldn't take any woman who rather be Kim K than Michelle Obama.

vogue is like GQ.....They both are high fashion/life and culture mags that are all about bringing insights on the fashion world to average people....They both cross the threshold between fashion and current pop culture icons

Maybe im delusional when i say this...
But how is Ye wrong? Kim is the ? benchmark that around 60% of women under 25 aspire to be. She took what Jlo started in motion in regards to women with ass/curves and made that ? THE thing to have this generation.
She's single handedly is the female spokes person for all the vapid glamour attention ? instagram ? that most of our age group is obsessed with. And put her whole ? talentless family on as well!! I know far more about Kendall and Kylie Jenner than I have business to (when they're legal, this might change)!!
Point is for good of for naught, Kim defines and influences ALOTTA ? young women are on nowadays. -
