5 When Kendall Shined Her Headlights for Calvin Klein Ad
Kendall Jenner celebrated her headlights in a Calvin Klein ad in 2015 by posting it on Instagram, which is another example of how the Kardashians broke the internet. The photos, all black and white, were shot by Mikael Jansson, and Kendall has her back to the camera with her arms folded, showing a side view of her cherry blossoms minus the Janet Jackson and wearing a very semi-sheer bloomer that leaves little to the imagination. This isn’t the first time Kendall posed for Calvin Klein; she also starred in the #mycalvins denim series. But this is her first campaign in which she’s showing off her bloomers, just as other celebs have done, like Kate Moss.
The tagline for the ads is “the original [bloomers],” as the brand is trying to bring [bloomers] back. Kendall told WWD that she loved doing the shoot, saying, “It was super fun. Every girl loves posing in her [bloomers]. It’s always fun to do that.” Umm, really? Do all girls love posing in the semi-sheer bloomers that she wore? Does it beat out wearing a flannel plaid nightgown to bed from L.L. Bean? And when do you do it? Between studying for the SATs and eating dinner with your family? And you just take off your bloomers and start posing? Where? In the janitor’s closet at your high school? So you can feel super superior between the shelf that holds the ammonia and the Clorox?
4 When Kim Vowed In 2011 That She Would Never Frolick Again, Even If It Was For Vogue
You’d think Kim K could care less if a magazine posted photos of her in any revealing manner. After all, she’s been shining those headlights for years now, whether from the side, or full on, or in a teasing manner. But a shoot for W magazine where she was entirely exposed reduced her to tears back in 2011. In the photo, Kim’s entirety is covered in silver body paint and nothing else.
According to the Daily Mail, Kim had been led to believe that the photo would be chaste and arty. She thought she would be airbrushed. Instead, it made her seem tasteless. She hit back when she did her spread for a gentleman’s magazine. She said, “I’m so mad right now. W promised I would be covered with artwork.”
She added, “I feel so taken advantage of. ” Kris told her to “own” the pics and “come out with her head held high.” In the biggest understatement of the year, she said, “I’ve definitely learned my lesson. I’m never taking my knickers off again, even if it’s for Vogue.” This was, as we said, in 2011. We tried to count how many times Kim frolicked in the bare fields since then, but we don’t know how to do MIT math. There are just too many times!!
3 When Kanye West Announced He Would Run For Office
During a seemingly spontaneous moment at the 2015 VMAs, Kanye dropped the biggest bomb of the night, saying he’s running for president in 2020. The rapper and designer told Vanity Fair that his presidential run is no joke and that he’s without a doubt “definitely” going to do it. The audience was of course surprised. He said, at the VMAs,
“As soon as I said that, it was like, ‘Wait a second, we would really be into that, because actually if you think about it, he’s extremely thoughtful. Every time he’s ever gotten in trouble, he was really jumping in front of a bullet for someone else. He’s probably the most honest celebrity that we have. I sit in clubs and I’m like, Wow, I’ve got five years before I go and run for office and I’ve got a lot of research to do, I’ve got a lot of growing up to do.”
West wasn’t ashamed that he knew nothing about politics. He even said he “hates politics.” Then he said, “I’m not a politician at all. I care about the truth and I just care about human beings. I just want everyone to win, that’s all I can say, and I think we can.”
He also said, “If there is anything that I can do with my time and my day, to somehow make a difference while I’m alive I’m going to try to do it.”
Great. We think he’ll be a great president. But only if Taylor Swift is his running mate.
