Kelly Cutrone, judge on the popular “America’s Next Top Model,” shared her feelings on hip-hop superstar Kanye West’s criticisms of the fashion industry. For the last couple of years, West has been vocal in his belief that the industry disrespects him and ignores how much influence he has on the fashion world. But Cutrone says that she doesn’t think the industry takes him seriously at all.


“I don’t think there’s one person who really works in the fashion industry who gives a flying f— about Kanye West,” said Cutrone in an interview with the New York Daily News.


West has stated previously that he and his wife, Kim Kardashian, have the most influence on fashion due to their pop culture standing. But Cutrone stated that West and Kardashian don’t hold much sway in the fashion world — despite their celebrity.

“I think they have no influence in the fashion world whatsoever,” she said. “I mean, most people who watch the Kardashians’ (reality show) can’t afford Givenchy. I don’t mean to be mean — are (counterfeiters) on Canal St. benefiting from it? Probably, but that’s not the fashion world.”


“Do I think that (Vogue editor-at-large) Hamish Bowles wakes up in the morning, calls (former Vogue editor-at-large) Andre Leon Talley and says, ‘Did you see those pants that Kanye was rocking on ‘SNL?’ No,” added Cutrone.
