[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Btw Why does Anna Wintour love Blake Lively?

She was seated at Anna Wintour’s table at the MET ball too. [/quote]

Who cares? If Harvey Weinstein wasn't in prison, he'd be at the table too.[/quote]

Yes but why was Blake invited to the Met Gala and sitting at Anna’s table? [/quote]

I don’t this matters as much as you think it does.  Anna is old and about to hand over Vogue to Bezos/Sanchez.  [/quote]

Wintour already stepped down as EIC of Vogue and gave the job to a protege -- Chloe Malle -- while staying on as Condé Nast's "chief content officer" which is a kind of figurehead retirement job for her where she still wields influence but doesn't have formal duties. So Anna is already basically retired from Vogue BUT the Met Gala remains her baby. In fact I would bet Anna spends more time on the Gala now than she did when she was running the magazine and is more involved in the Met as an Elective Trustee, because she has more time and this is the aspect of her legacy over which she still has near total control. Anna will continue to run the gala as lead chair for as long as she wishes to -- she was the one who brought in Bezos and he (and Lauren) need her stamp of approval to be there, and that won't change.[/quote]

Yes, very interesting that she has chosen to embrace Blake Lively and show her support so publicly right after the lawsuit scandal. She just think Blake will recover her reputation. [/quote]

Anna was EIC of Vogue for 37 years. I imagine she takes a much longer view on celebrity and influence than most people. She's seen plenty of people dead and then resurrected. She also gatekeepers with a different set of values than others assume. She absolutely does gatekeep, but the qualities she appreciates aren't just being connected or beautiful or even being beloved by the public. She likes people who work hard (because she has always worked hard). She likes people with a personal sense of style even if it is often criticized by others. The likes people who love fashion and art and view fashion [I]as[/I] art and believe it's every bit as important as sports and politics. Yes she likes Blake, personally. She also likes Kim Kardashian. I suspect she also likes Lauren Bezos. Because they all share these values. There are models and actresses considered by many to be far more "fashionable" and popular than those three, but Anna actively dislikes them because she views them as lazy, unoriginal, with no real appreciation for what Anna does. Many, actually.[/quote]
