In this English language episode of《Good Morning, VOGUE China》, VOGUE China Editor-in-Chief, Margaret Zhang sits down with one of the most photographed women on the planet: Kim Kardashian. While the 43-year-old media personality and businesswoman interfaces with cameras in almost every part of her life - her carefully curated social media selfies; red carpet photographers; tabloids whenever she steps out of the house; campaigns for her myriad contracts; crew for her reality show, marketing assets for her portfolio of brands; and more recently, as an actor on set - Kardashian elects to relinquish her usual need for creative control when it comes to editorial projects. "If I’m shooting for... a photographer... and I don‘t hire the photographer and I don’t put [the shoot] together for one of my brands, I want to see what they want from me,“ Kardashian tells Zhang from set of her PhotoVOGUE cover shoot. ”I want to see something different, even if I don‘t really like it and I’m not comfortable with how I look in it. I know someone will resonate with that. I know someone will want to see a different side of me.“ Tune in for more on Kim Kardashian's first experience working with a Chinese creative team for Margaret's final edition of PhotoVOGUE as Editor-in-Chief of VOGUE China.
