The Keeping Up With The Kardashians looks right at home in a Kris Jenner-esque cropped wig, leather jacket, and sunglasses, surrounded by a host of thirsty paparazzi. (@KimKardashian)

I like Beyonce so much better when she doesn’t air out her thoughts to the public.

Wow, Kim looks just like her mom in that pic!!!

@Bajan Candy I agree 100%!! At first, I thought that was Kris Jenner.
And Kudos to Jess Simpson – she has really built an empire for herself.

I heard that kanye is really good friends with the editor I’m assuming that’s why she got it?? And she does look like her mom and its crazy I was just looking at her during her ray j era and she looks like a completely different person. Now.

MJ’s face is snatched to the Gods in that pic…Lashes, Brows, and Lips…RIP…

i bet people are going to say kim in vogue because of kanye,even though she been on the cover of different magazines before she was with him.i wish people would leave kim and kanye alone.i like the fact beyonce been more open about her personal life.

Kim obviously got the cover because of Kanye. IJS
Beyonce needs to stop writing letters, it so apparent that she is not that bright.

Kim is definitely her mother’s child. Yay for Jessica Simpson, though it would have been a good luck for her to bring this out while she was preggers. Why isn’t the MJ exhibit coming to America? What’s up with that?
May 14, 2012 4:11 pm
@ Katie, from the comments you make on here, you aren’t either.
May 14, 2012 5:19 pm
i miss MJ :(

Kim’s tweeted incorrectly – her shoot was for L’Uomo Vogue – not Vogue Italia according to Franca Sozzani, the Ed in Chief of Vogue Italia.
L’Uomo Vogue is fine but it doesn’t have quite the cache of the main magazine.

@Mads Thanks for the tip! We updated. x

Kim looks different because it seems like she gets her hairline threaded and had her nose done.
You can see it when you compare a pic of her from 2007 and then a pic of her from this year. I don’t usually assume surgery because makeup artists can do wonders for anyone’s face but her nose is definitely more pronounced and pinched, and when her hair is put up her hairline isn’t so close to her brows anymore.

Looks like Kanye is the one who got this gig for Kim since he is also featured in this issue of L’Uomo Vogue….REALLY Kanye? This relationship is killing me!!!!
May 15, 2012 10:37 pm
kardashians apparently get a family discount if he uses the same face blue print he used on her mom and that outfit she has on is a hot mess……I love beyonce but that letter is damn near remedial

I miss MJ, too!
