Kendall Jenner's Vogue cover is not sitting well with superfans

Granted, it should come as little surprise that the reality TV star turned model would get her own cover, considering that Instagirls like Kendall and Gigi Hadid, who graced Vogue’s August issue, are in high demand. Additionally, the 20-year-old was on the cover of a supplemental issue all about her (and paid for by Esté Lauder, the cosmetics company she fronts) for the magazine’s April edition.

Still, lots of people objected to the fact that Kendall was given such a prestigious honour. The September issue is arguably the most anticipated of the year (Beyoncé and Jennifer Lawrence were past recipients of the honour), so naturally, people did not hold back their outrage.

In short, the hate is real.

But there were still some people happy to see Jenner reach this milestone in her career.

Whatever you think of Jenner’s cover, the fact remains that we’re talking about it, which is exactly the point.

Love them or hate them, the world is fascinated by the allure of the Kardashian-Jenners, and with all the press and social media reactions surrounding the cover, it’s clear that the Vogue team knew exactly what they were doing. If outrage has worked for Kim and Kanye, the same strategy has succeeded with Kendall. Vogue FTW!
