Reality TV star Kim Kardashian and rapper Kanye West, just one month before their marriage, featured in Vogue’s April issue in 2014. However, the editorial decision to feature Kimye sent the fashion world spinning, with editor Anna Wintour facing massive criticism for throwing the magazine’s reputation under the bus. Just the month before Kardashian and West, Anne Hathaway had been featured on Vogue’s March cover, and during her interview for the same, she was asked about the cover featuring Kim and Kanye.
Speaking on The Joe Rogan Experience Podcast in 2019, Michael Yo, the media reporter who interviewed The Intern actress for the cover, revealed that he was directed by the higher authorities to ask the actress her views on Kim and Kanye’s April issue of Vogue, as everyone believed it was “bull crap”.

“So they gave me the dumbest question to ask Anne Hathaway. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were on the cover of Vogue, and right before that, it was Anne Hathaway. So they told me, ‘Hey, why don’t you ask her what she thinks about the cover?’ Because everybody was saying, ‘This is bull crap Kim Kardashian is on the cover’,” he told Rogan.

Yo further recalled Anne’s reaction to the question, revealing she was totally pissed off as she was asked to share her opinion on something she had no control over. He said, “And I ask Anne Hathaway that question, and she goes, ‘Well, I don’t run the magazine, so it doesn’t really matter to me’”. So I finish asking the question, and I walk down the stairs, and then I hear… she goes, ‘Why the f*ck would he ask me that question? I don’t give a shit who’s in that magazine!’”.
It seems like Vogue wanted to churn out some juicy details from Anne Hathaway about the then-hottest couple, but the Love & Other Drugs star’s sassy response clearly screamed, “Not Today”! She’s one of the most loved actresses in Hollywood for a reason, after all.
