Kim Kardashian Bares All for Interview Magazine but Not News of SKKY Partners Private Equity Firm AOC Fashion
Kim Kardashian covers the September 2022 American Dream issue, styled by Mel Ottenberg in denim from Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta and Telfar. Add in the black jacket by Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello, vintage Norma Kamali top and Kim’s own flag panty and personal jockstrap, and Kim Kardashian is ready to talk truth about the American dream.
The Kardashians are in countdown mode, as Season 2 of The Kardashians readies its September 22 Hulu premier. Nadia Lee Cohen, photographs Kim, with Mel Ottenberg returning for his EIC interview: Kim Kardashian Bares All.
Kim Kardashian Financial Mogul
AOC can make the argument that the day Kim Kardashian announces that she is going into the private equity business with the help of a former partner from highbrow US firm The Carlyle Group, it’s hysterical that her famous butt resides side-by-side in the Google results.
Something more along the lines of Mama Kardashian’s Steven Klein’s September 2017 Interview fashion story, where Kim channels Jackie Kennedy Onassis would be more appropriate. But hey, the critics went crazy over Kim’s audacity to channel Jackie Kennedy Onassis.
Kim Kardashian is the quintessential “We have smart MOXIE” American girl.
Rereading the 2917 story, AOC notes that Anne was in high gear with her response to the KK Haters. Some things never change.
Meet New Kim Kardashian: Private Equity Mogul
Kim Kardashian’s new SKKY Partners aims to become “the next generation consumer and media private equity firm.”
Along with her partner, former Carlyle Group mogul Jay Sammons, Kardashian’s firm plans to focus on consumer products, media, hospitality and luxury. It will also consider making investments in digital and e-commerce firms. Kris Jenner is also a partner.
Sammons previously ran the Carlyle Group’s global consumer, media and retail division and left the company in July. He will serve as co-founders and co-managing partner, with Sammons running daily operations at the firm. The former Carlyle Group biggie is associated with global brands like Supreme, Beats by Dr.Dre, Vogue, McDonald’s China and Moncler, reports CNBC.
So the haters can hate on, but AOC loves Kim Kardashian.
Returning to Kim Kardashian’s September 2022 Interview Magazine talk with Mel Ottenberg, we share choice words.
OTTENBERG: I get it. Okay Kim, I’m curious. You were always like, “For a girl with no talent, I’ve come really far.” Let’s get it on the record. What is your talent?
KARDASHIAN: I think it came from people saying, “What are you famous for?” And I’m like, “Well, we have a TV show.” But just because we’re not singing and dancing and acting on the show doesn’t mean that the fame didn’t come from that. But then, I would write that as a hashtag, not bad for a girl with no talent, because people used to be like, “Well, what do you do? What’s your talent?” And I’m like, “Didn’t know I needed one.” I mean, I can give you a million fucking talents. I can cook well, use my toes for anything. I could tell you the weirdest fucking shit on the planet. But I think my talent is marketing and the business behind selling products and knowing what the customer wants and making it feel attainable, but also a bit unattainable at the same time. I wouldn’t say that’s a talent. I think it’s a bit of magic and business savvy. Maybe it is talent, I don’t know.
OTTENBERG: Fuck yeah. Okay, so on that note, the first sentence of your Wikipedia page says, “Kim Kardashian is an American socialite, model, media personality, and businesswoman.” If you had to rewrite that today, what would it say?
KARDASHIAN: I don’t really care what people think of me or say about me. I mean, model, that’s funny. But, I would just say more of the business side, because that’s all I’ve really cared about. Hopefully one day it can say lawyer and mother. I think those are my most important roles, but I don’t really look at my Wikipedia page, so I don’t really care.
