Transcript of clip:
Ye
I had a dinner with Ivanka, Jared and Josh and a couple of days later, I found out that Josh Kushner had 10% of SKIMS which is a line that I had developed with Kim and I had a lot of issues with the imagery of SKIMS. I felt like there's a lot of imagery that was overly sexualized and things that I wouldn't want to see my wife and definitely not my daughters doing in the future in order to sell product.
But it reaches another level. When it's like okay, well, this is what my wife is doing and this is what they're doing this what she's doing for our children. But it reaches another level when her business partners are selling pieces of company that they don't have to because the company is already so successful and it's a internet based company. So it's like they're really just selling off the company in order to create more relationships for themselves that are unneeded, it's like when I went to the gap and with our release it just like they shoveled it out. I'm very cautious with my words. I'm really big on being able to have an adult conversation in front of the children. So I don't use explicit language interviews especially.
So I found out after this dinner that Josh Kushner had 10% of SKIMS, and I had 5% of SKIMS. And regardless if you know Josh Kushner figured out how to put $150 million. I'm sure it wasn't out of his own account, but 150 million and I'm sure Jared still has a piece of that fund.
Regardless of them putting that money in for me to have been a owner in it and that known just from a places as a creative where SKIMS is so based on a lot of the Yeezy ideas. Then it's based on all of the relationships in fashion because I had to use my relationships and fashion in order to establish Kim in a way where fashionable people would say hey, I'm I'm down to where kids live. And these VCs, they come in and they get a piece of it after the fact and they run around and say they have ownership in it. So as I put on my Instagram, which, you know, luckily for everyone, they could just write it off that you know, I'm crazy. Until they see my disposition in this interview and then it's gonna get scary.
I said, Hey, Josh, what if? What if I had ten percent set of Karlie Kloss ? launcher Ray shape wear swimsuit line and you have 5% of it?
And you didn't know
how would that make you feel?
And then after talking to them and really sitting with Jared and sitting with Josh, and finding out other pieces of information, I was like, Wow.
