Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are the ultimate power couple — at least according to Time Magazine.
Both celebs were named to to the Time 100,
the magazine's annual list of the 100 most influential people in the
world, joining an impressive roster that includes Hillary Clinton, Pope
Francis and President Obama.
The “Jesus Walks” rapper had the slight edge over his wife, scoring one of the magazine’s five covers.
“Kanye West would be the first person to tell you he belongs on this list,” SpaceXFounder Elon Musk wrote in his Time 100 profile.
“Kanye’s belief in himself and his incredible tenacity ... got him to where he is today.”
While Kardashian didn’t score a cover, she did receive praise from a fellow mogul — Martha Stewart.
“Kim exudes energy, sexuality, drama, determination, impetuousness and happiness,” she wrote.
“But she and her famous, entrepreneurial siblings — shepherded by a
savvy, tireless matriarch — have also expanded the very definition of
family.”
Other notable names joining Kimye on the list include Bradley Cooper, Chris Pratt, Reese Witherspoon, Emma Watson and “Serial” podcast host Sarah Koenig.
Along with Yeezus, Cooper scored a Time 100 cover for his “increasingly
brave, eccentric, breathtakingly diverse performances,” including in the
Oscar-nominated “American Sniper.”
“I barely recognized him in ‘American Sniper;’ physically and emotionally, he actually kind of disappeared,” actor Oliver Platt wrote.
Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, ballet dancer Misty Copeland
and Univision news anchor Jorge Ramos all earned Time 100 covers.
The Time 100 issue hits newsstands Friday.
