Armenian Kim Kardashian not upset to be on Turkish Cosmopolitan cover?

Kim Kardashian celebrity scandal brews over her photo on the cover of Cosmopolitan magazine in Turkey?
[Apr. 12]
Believe who you want but Kim Kardashian herself is saying that she is honored — not upset or appalled — over being featured as the cover model of Cosmopolitan in Turkey. The reality television celebrity is of Armenian descent and has long harbored ill feelings toward the Turkish government for the massacre and treatment of her people, but the modern Turkish culture is actually embracing Armenians more freely in the 21st century. That Cosmopolitan magazine, a worldwide organization, felt comfortable enough to put Kim Kardashian on the cover of their latest fashion magazine knowing that Genocide Remembrance Day falls during the month her edition will be on news stands is a bold statement, one that humbled the green celebrity.
Showbiz Spy reported (via Kim Kardashian herself by blog) the following celebrity quotes:
“Cosmopolitan magazine has a number of international editions all around the world that run in various territories, and when I did this shoot for the international covers I had no idea that Turkey was planning to run my story on their cover THIS month, considering Genocide Remembrance Day is this month.
“My Armenian heritage means a lot to me and I’ve been brought up to be incredibly proud of my family’s background and culture so as an Armenian-American woman it is a huge honor for me to be on the first ever Armenian Cosmopolitan cover.
“I have an amazing relationship with Cosmopolitan Magazine. World-over, Cosmo is known as a fun and inspiring magazine for women of all races, shapes, sizes, regardless of their political beliefs and I really hope that if I can bring awareness to the issue, then this in an accomplishment.”
While other sources who apparently don’t follow Kim Kardashian online have been frantically reporting the first part of her quote and claiming Kim Kardashian is proud of her heritage, they made the misstep in logic by assuming she was appalled by Cosmo not telling her she would be on the cover of the Turkey Cosmopolitan magazine.
Kim Kardashian is not about promoting hostility and division. She is not about hating a people because of their origin or nationality. She is about bringing a sense of freedom and empowerment to women worldwide.
As a green celebrity, Kim Kardashian has spent an enormous amount of time helping promote ideas of natural beauty being from the inside out.
Congrats on the cover, Kim — it’s a real beauty.
