Kim Kardashian is already gearing up for her possible future role as First Lady. The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star organized a call with Dr. Fauci and a number of celebrities across TV, film and music. The call helped to inform the leading influencers on the latest regarding the ongoing international health pandemic.
Kim is fresh off the heels of her husband's failed presidential bid. Kanye West received a total of 60,000 votes across the 12 states he was eligible to be a write-in candidate. While conceding on Election Day, the rap/fashion mogul teased his return in 2024. While many didn't take his campaign seriously, the Yeezy founder continued to promote his hope for the White House. Kim never publicly came out to support her husband's campaign and seemingly hinted her support for president-elect Joe Biden following his win. Aside from Kanye's political goals, Kim has been successfully aiding in the early release of nonviolent drug offenders in her public advocacy for prison reform. The reality star is so passionate about her work, she's following in her late father's footsteps and studying to become a lawyer.
But, the KKW Beauty founder isn't done. The mother of four is adding health advocate to her growing resume as she recently organized a call with celebs who wanted to ask Dr. Fauci questions. According to the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, he spoke with Kim and a number of celebrities back in April and was impressed by the dialogue they produced. Superstars on the zoom call included Gwyneth Paltrow, Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom and 2 Chainz. “It was a whole bunch of movie stars and some sports figures and they wanted to know about what they could do to stay safe, about wearing masks and avoiding crowds," Dr. Fauci told CNN. "I was impressed by the questions they asked, by their level of sophistication.”
The American physician and immunologist expressed how important it was for the influencers to receive accurate information on the virus that they could share with their followers on social media. “Each of them has enormous numbers of followers on their social media accounts," said Fauci. "I could say to them, for example, it’s important to wear a mask, and they get on their accounts and say ‘wear a mask’ and it goes out to an additional couple of million people."
It's clear Kim is doing her part in helping others while unconsciously flexing her leadership ability.
