While Kris has been immortalized in a Doug Inglish directed LOVE clip, Kim Kardashian is about to be immortalized as a statue. ELLE U.K. reports that Kanye West has commissioned an artist to create a statue of Kim, posed in a fashion similar to that famous Grace Jones Island Life cover, taken by Jean-Paul Goude.
Amber Rose, Kanye’s ex-girlfriend, did her own rendition of the pose back in 2010 for Complex, so maybe Kanye just has a thing for making all his significant others do odes to Goude. Kim’s Paper magazine cover was also a modern update of a vintage Goude image, so she’s no stranger to the theme. According to reports, the plans for the statue will be unveiled on a forthcoming episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, so stay tuned!
