Money sure does make the world go ’round. Legendary photographer Annie Leibovitz was reluctant to shoot Kimye for the cover of ‘Vogue’ but after a major payout, she couldn’t turn it down.

Kim and Kanye were desperate for Annie to take their photos after the original photographer for the cover refused to shoot them. When the idea was brought to her, she initially turned them down.

But, the famed photographer reconsidered because she loves and needs money.

One alleged publishing insider give insight to the whole situation:

Annie is one of the best in the business, so of course Kim and Kanye wanted her for the shoot. She initially said ‘no’ as she thinks they’re tacky. She’s photographed Queen Elizabeth, for goodness sake! But the magazine, as well as Kim and Kanye, offered her so much money she couldn’t say no. And as we all know, Annie needs the cash. She isn’t proud of her work – although Annie is fan of Kanye. But a girl’s gotta put bread on the table!

Ouch!

Taking advantage of the cover’s popularity, Leibovitz joined Twitter. Of course, Kim sent out a tweet to announce Annie’s arrival to Twitter saying:

“Please welcome @annieleibovitz to twitter! She is the legendary photographer who shot our @voguemagazine cover! Love u Annie! #BestMemories”

The photographer now has over sixty seven thousand followers and has sent two tweets; one of which is a tweetpic of Kimye’s Vogue cover.
