Kanye West Says Kim Kardashian is More Influential than Michelle Obama

Kanye West preached his love for his betrothed baby mama during  Ryan Seacrest's radio show show Tuesday, arguing she's more influential than Michelle Obama and deserves a turn on the cover of Vogue magazine.

"There's no way Kim Kardashian shouldn't be on the cover of Vogue. She's like the most intriguing woman right now. She's got Barbara Walters calling her like everyday," he told Ryan Seacrest Tuesday morning.

"And collectively, we're the most influential with clothing. No one is looking at what [President Barack Obama] is wearing," he said. "Michelle Obama cannot Instagram a pic like what my girl Instagrammed the other day."

He was referring to a photo Kardashian posted to social media a couple weeks ago that showcased her prominent posterior in a revealing white swimsuit after giving birth in June to daughter North.

The rapper said he doesn't care if some people find his comments controversial.

"That's not my concern," he said. "My concern is doing God's work, and he'll work everything else out."
