For our winter issue, we gave ourselves one assignment: Break The Internet. There is no other person that we can think of who is up to the task than one Kim Kardashian West. A pop culture fascination able to generate headlines just by leaving her house, Kim is what makes the web tick.
We tapped legendary French photographer Jean-Paul Goude to recreate his iconic “Champagne Incident” shot and all we can say about the images inside, which we’ll be releasing on Thursday, is…holy fucking shit.
UPDATE: After the magazine released the cover, Kim took to her Twitter to say…
“And they say I didn’t have a talent…try balancing a champagne glass on your ass LOL #BreakTheInternet #PaperMagazine”
UPDATE: Her husband Kanye West approves. He did one of his rare tweets and sent out the cover with the hashtag…
“#ALLDAY”
UPDATE: Big Sean’s ex-fiance and Glee star Naya Rivera thought it was a smart thing to leave a comment on Kim’s IG page. She said…
“I normally don’t but… you’re someone’s mother…”
Check the following to see the alternate cover of Kim and the original picture before the recreation.
