Kim Kardashian takes a pop at Kanye as she poses topless for Vogue: ‘I gained confidence three years ago… before, I always needed to check with someone before making decisions’

Kim Kardashian achieved a major career milestone by appearing on the cover of French Vogue, and she used the opportunity to subtly address her former husband, Kanye West.

At 44, Kim celebrated a new sense of freedom by posing topless for a magazine spread in October, sharing that she feels more confident than ever before.

Kim finalized her divorce from Kanye three years ago and recently shared that her mother predicted her forties would be the best years of her life. She says that prediction has come true, and she’s only recently started to feel truly confident.

I used to always second-guess myself and ask for advice before making any decision, which was exhausting. Now, I’m confident in my own judgment and know what I want – it feels amazing!

Kim has said her relationship with fashion significantly boosted her confidence, and she especially credits designer Demna (previously the creative director of Balenciaga) for helping her with this.

She explained that things shifted significantly when she started working with Demna. His disregard for others’ opinions inspired her to embrace the same attitude.

Kim wears many hats: she’s a mother of four, a self-made billionaire, a trendsetting fashion icon, a hugely popular social media personality with over 335 million followers, a successful businesswoman, a law school graduate, and is now adding actress to her already impressive list of roles.

She talks about how she navigates her way around her busy life as a mother and businesswoman. 

Kim explained that she’s a big list-maker – she creates them for everything, from work to managing her kids’ schedules. She feels most productive and happy when she’s organized with lists and a clear schedule.

Let me tell you, as someone who’s watched her juggle it all, being a mom – and especially a mom to four kids – really makes you realize how crucial staying organized is. It’s not just helpful, it’s absolutely everything!

Kim Kardashian is trying her hand at acting! She’s the star of a new series called All’s Fair, created by Ryan Murphy, and it will be available on Disney+ this fall.

The creator of popular, suspenseful series like Dahmer and The Watcher directed Kim in her role as Allura Grant, a divorce attorney who heads a law firm comprised entirely of women.

Kim explained that Ryan is very focused and determined, always achieving his goals. She appreciated that he was supportive and helped her succeed, especially since she was new to the situation.

It’s definitely a little daunting to share the screen with such amazing actors as Glenn Close, Sarah Paulson, Naomi Watts, and Niecy Nash.

I don’t usually get nervous, and this was no different. I simply focused on doing my job. I went to set with a strong desire to be professional and prepared, eager to learn from the experience. Ryan gave me a great opportunity, and I knew I couldn’t pass it up.

For Vogue’s latest high jewelry feature, Kim Kardashian poses with minimal makeup and stunning, priceless jewels, showcasing a naturally beautiful and classic side of herself.

It’s particularly meaningful that she’s wearing jewels considering she was robbed of $10 million worth of items in Paris in October 2016.

The $4million engagement ring from her ex-husband, Kanye was never recovered.

A Paris court convicted the leader and seven members of a gang in May for tying up and robbing a billionaire reality TV star.

In a recent interview, Kim discussed her thriving company, SKIMS, explaining that she always had a strong idea of what she wanted to create and was fortunate enough to make it a reality.

My team has a lot of faith in me and is always open to my suggestions – even the unusual ones! I once suggested trying slimming face masks, and surprisingly, they were willing to put in the effort to make it work.
