Earlier this month Kanye West was spotted at the Beverly Hills Hotel with Anna Wintour reportedly begging her to put Kim Kardashian on the cover of Vogue [click here if you missed that].
Turns out he wasn't begging, he was furious because 'Girls' star Lena Dunham made the cover before Kim...

Kanye, 36, insisted to the British-born fashion icon that Kim is “just as talented as Lena, if not more so,” one source revealed to Radar.
“Kanye thinks that Kim has a much bigger fan base and appeal than Lena,” said the insider.
“To Kanye, it’s insulting that his friend Anna is still refusing to even consider putting Kim on the cover ofVogue. He thinks Anna is listening to a bunch of ‘know-nothing’ corporate haters, as he put it. He’s upset that Anna isn’t willing to do him this personal favor and put Kim on the cover.
“Kanye knows that it’s always been a huge dream of Kim’s to be on the Vogue cover and Kanye wants to make it come true. If nothing else, Kanye is persistent.”
There is one consolation for the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star: Wintour is “open to the idea” of having Kardashian, 33, appear on the cover of the French or Italian edition of the magazine, a source confirmed.
“She hopes that will get Kanye off of her back,” said the insider.
“There would still be some backlash if Anna allowed that to happen, but not as much if Kim were to appear on the U.S. edition.”
