Kim Kardashian looks like a mixed race Jackie Kennedy-Onassis on the current cover of Interview magazine. The cover features a beautiful portrait of Kim and her daughter North West, the mixed race spawn of Kim and musician Kanye West.
Naturally, social media is having a field day with the message behind the photo — whatever that may be.
“Jackie O turning over in her damn grave right now,” wrote one Twitter.com user. Others noted that the magazine darkened Armenian Kim’s skin tone to match her brown skinned daughter’s.

Instead of using this as an avenue to show that we r racially diverse but still one, they darkened Kim's complexion to match her daughter's

I mean if they didn't want an interracial family on their cover, then they could have gotten 2 b/w celebs rather than using black face

Ethnicially kim is scottish, dutch and armenian. Armenian's aren't black, or asian, or arabic, making kim white.

I'm sorry, I love @KimKardashian but this shit is a ridiculous. Who thought this was a good idea? Is this a joke? Are you punning me?
