NEWSFirst Lady Feuds! Melania Trump Slams Anna Wintour For Jill Biden Vogue Cover
First Lady Problems!
Melania Trump slammed Anna Wintour calling her politically biased for failing to feature her on the cover of Vogue when her husband, Donald Trump, was in the White House.
In a rare broadcast interview, the mother-of-one opened up about her time as FLOTUS and her belief that how the media treated her during her husband's time in office was influenced by political leanings.
"Take Vogue, for example — five months into Joe Biden's presidency, Jill Biden's on the cover. [Vice President] Kamala Harris is on the cover before she's even sworn in. Hillary Clinton was on the cover when she was first lady. Michelle was on the cover three times," Fox Nation's Pete Hegseth stated in the interview. "Yet with your business background and your fashion background and your beauty, never on the cover of Vogue. Why the double standard?"
"They're biased and they have likes and dislikes, and it's so obvious," Melania replied of Wintour's alleged snub. "And I think American people and everyone sees it."
She added, "It was their decision, and I have much more important things to do — and I did in the White House — than being on the cover of Vogue."
The Slovenian model, 52, hasn't been on the cover since February 2005 shortly after her lavish wedding to Donald. Stephanie Winston-Wolkoff, Melania's former advisor, claimed she was later offered a photoshoot for the world famous fashion magazine soon after the business mogul became president, however, Wintour refused to guarantee her a spot on the cover.
Melania isn't the only one unhappy with Wintour. As OK! previously learned, while the current vice president was featured in Vogue's February 2021 issue, she reportedly wasn't happy with the photo the famed editor-in-chief chose for the cover. Kamala was pictured in casual wear, sporting a pair of skinny jeans and sneakers — a snapshot she is said to have thought would be used inside the magazine, rather than on the cover.
An excerpt of the book This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America's Future read: "Harris was wounded. She felt belittled by the magazine, asking aides: 'Would Vogue depict another world leader this way?'"
