‘Would Vogue Depict Another World Leader This Way?’ VP Harris Griped Over Sneakers Shot, Claims Book
14:16 GMT 23.03.2022 (Updated: 15:29 GMT 23.03.2022) The forthcoming book This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America’s Future, by the New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alex Burns, promises a behind-the-scenes story of the 2020 election and Kamala Harris’s “struggles” as Joe Biden’s Vice-President.
Vice-President
Kamala Harris fumed about a Vogue cover photo showing her wearing Converse sneakers and skinny trousers ahead of Joe Biden's 2021 inauguration, according to Politico citing an advance copy of a new book, set to be launched on 3 May.
The infuriated Harris even dispatched an aide - incoming press secretary Symone Sanders - to tackle editor Anna Wintour. However, the editor explained that the image of Harris which was used was particularly “relatable”, according to an excerpt from the book, 'This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America’s Future', by New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alex Burns.
“Harris was wounded. She felt belittled by the magazine, asking aides: Would Vogue depict another world leader this way?” the cited excerpt reads.
Harris is alleged to have expressed her preference for a different photo of her - wearing a more formal powder blue suit. She got her way eventually, with a limited edition alternative to the sneakers-and-skinny-trousers released by Vogue ahead of the February 2021 issue, the book says.
When the brouhaha over the Vogue cover reached incoming President Joe Biden’s team, they were flabbergasted, the authors claim.
Tina Flournoy, Harris’ incoming chief of staff, apparently approached the Biden campaign to seek support over the perceived snub, but an adviser told her that “this was not the time to be going to war with Vogue over a comparatively trivial aesthetic issue.”
“Tina, the adviser said, these are first-world problems,” the excerpt read.
Several titillating excerpts from the book have already been reported, offering a behind-the-scenes story of the 2020 election, Joe Biden’s selection of Kamala Harris as his running mate, and
early tensions between Biden’s and Harris’ offices in the early days of the administration.
