Kim K's Interview magazine cover shoot where she channels Jacqueline Kennedy sparks backlash
Kim Kardashian's recent cover shoot for Interview magazine's September issue has sparked outrage for at least two reasons.
Kim appeared on the cover and inside photos with her daughter North West, where she channeled former US First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Photographer Steven Klein said his goal was to "capture feminine beauty as an expression of empowerment and self-respect. Also, to highlight Kim in a chic manner that is retrospective of a time and yet
modern." Kim was ecstatic about the cover and said she will "treasure this shoot forever."
After the photos were made public, social media criticised both the magazine and Kim. They accused the magazine of darkening Kim's complexion to match the shade of her daughter's skin tone. They also said it was insulting for Kim to impersonate Jackie O.
