Whatever you personally believe, Kim and Kanye Vogue..."kover" has finally happened. Of course, the general consensus is that Kanye pressured editor-in-chief Anna Wintour to put his lady on the cover of her industry-defining publication, but perhaps Vogue wasn't the only magazine that Kimye was considering.
An insider at Women's Wear Daily reported that both Harper's Bazaar and Vanity Fair were also in talks with the #worldsmosttalkedaboutcouple for cover deals, battling with Vogue for the rights to feature the pair.
Apparently Harper's wanted to use Terry Richardson to photograph the cover, shooting Kardashian exclusively. Kim strongly disagreed with the choice of photographer (even though they have worked together previously). At Vanity Fair, the staff was indecisive, prompting editor-in-chief Graydon Carter to leave the decision up to raising hands in support or rejection of the idea.
It's unclear whether Kim and Kanye would have even sided with the other two magazines considering that Kanye very publicly wanted Kim on the cover Vogue, but this hidden bidding war may be a sign that the fashion bigwigs are starting to embrace Kim's pressence in the high-fashion scene.
