KimYe’s wedding Instagram photo took a lot more work than you might imagine. Kanye West Blasts Annie Liebovitz For Pulling Out Of Wedding Last Minute Speaking on a Cannes Lions panel Tuesday, West explained how he and newlywed wife Kim Kardashian pretty much had their honeymoon ruined because they spent four days toiling over their famous Instagram flick to get the flowers to look like Liebovitz (who ditched photog duties at the last minute) had taken the photo. Via Page Six reports: Kanye explained, “Let me tell you something about that kiss photo that my girl put up … this was pissing my girl off during the honeymoon, she was exhausted because we worked on the photo so much because Annie Leibovitz pulled out right before the wedding. I think that she was, like, scared of the idea of celebrity.” “Because Annie pulled out, I was like, ‘Okay, I still want my wedding photos to look like Annie Leibovitz,’ and we sat there and worked on that photo for, like, four days because the flowers were off-color. “Can you imagine telling someone who wants to just Instagram a photo, who’s the No. 1 person on Instagram, ‘We need to work on the color of the flower wall,’ or the idea that it’s a Givenchy dress, and it’s not about the name Givenchy, it’s about the talent that is Riccardo Tisci — and how important Kim is to the Internet. “And the fact the No. 1 most-liked photo [on Instagram] has a kind of aesthetic was a win for what the mission is, which is raising the palette. “It was a long time,” he added — drawing laughs from the audience, before later adding, “Why did Annie Leibovitz pull out one day before the wedding?” Kim and Kanye’s wedding photo is the most-liked image ever on Instagram, with more than 1.93 million likes, and more than 35,000 comments. At least he can laugh at himself… this time. Hit the flip for more from Ye’s rant!
