From Kim Kardashian channeling Kanye West's new wife style to her recent meeting with Vice President Kamala Harris to discuss criminal justice reform. First up, Kim was spotted out and about in Los Angeles on Sunday rocking a backless black ensemble from Balenciaga that had everyone talking. But it wasn't just the daring design that caught people's attention. It was the striking resemblance to an outfit worn by none other than Kanye West's current wife, Bianca Sensory nearly a year ago. From the platinum dyed locks to the shoe leggings and backless halter top, Kim seemed to be taking a page straight out of Bianca's fashion playbook. Coincidence or not, there's no denying that Kim looked fierce as she said stepped out in the city's Woodland Hills neighborhood. But Kim's not just making headlines for her fashion choices. She recently returned from a trip to Washington, d C. Where she met with Vice President Kamala Harris on April twenty fifth to discuss criminal justice reform. The meeting came on the heels of President Joe Biden offering clemency to sixteen people imprisoned for nonviolent drug crimes, with four of those newly released inmates and attendance.

1:33 platform in a way that has really lifted up the importance of talking about and being dedicated to second chances. Kim, who has been working as an apprentice attorney, responded, I'm so honored to be here to continue this fight to learn more. Every day, every visit, every administration. I'm just here to help and spread the word. Kim's commitment to criminal justice reform has seen her working in a bipartisan effort to help people who have been behind bars for decades due to strict drug laws. President Biden said he granted the pardons because the individuals were serving sentences longer than they would have received under current law, policy and practice. Moving on to Kim's latest venture in the entertainment world.

2:15 The fashion and beauty mogul is set to executive produce a new Netflix series called Calabasas alongside Emma Roberts and Pretty Little Liars creator I'm Marlene King. The show, based on Via Bleidner's book If You Lived Here, You'd Be Famous By Now, follows a young girl's experience transferring from a private Catholic school to Calabasas High, where she encounters the unique culture and Kardashian connection that the La suburb is known for. According to Deadline, the book synopsis references stories like Kim Kardashian endorsing the student's favorite hidden lunch spot and Kanye trying to take control of your school to make it the very first Yeezy institution, hinting at the potential for some meta moments if Kim decides to make an appearance on the show.

3:02 With King set to write and serve as showrunner and Roberts also on board as an executive producer, Calabasis is shaping up to be a must watch for fans of the Kardashians and anyone curious about the ins and outs of growing up in the famous suburb. In more serious news, a recent CDC report has shed light on the dangerous consequences of unlicensed and poorly equipped practitioners blurring the lines between beauty, wellness and medical industries. The report reveals that at least three women were diagnosed with HIV after receiving a bloody vampire facial at an unlicensed wellness SPA in Albuquerque, New Mexico, marking the first documented case of HIV transmission via contaminated cosmetic injections. The SPA in question, vip SPA, was investigated and promptly shut down by the CDC in twenty eighteen after the first HIV positive patient was diagnosed. The report found that the SPA's safety practices were horrifyingly non existent, putting clients at serious risk. For those unfamiliar, a vampire facial is a cosmetic procedure that involves drawing blood from a patient, separating the platelets, and then reinjecting them into the skin using tiny needles. While the treatment is purely cosmetic and doesn't offer any medical benefits, it gained popularity in twenty thirteen after Kim Kardashian posted a bloody mid treatment selfie This alarming case serves as a stark reminder of the importance of seeking out reputable, licensed professionals for any cosmetic

Shifting gears to Kim's business endeavors, it appears that her private equity firm, Sky Partners, has faced some challenges in securing funding. According to federal securities filings, the firm, which Kim launched with former Carlisle Group executive Jay Sammons over year ago, has raised just one hundred twenty one million out of its ambitious one billion dollar goal. The filings show that nearly eighty million of the raised capital was structured as a special purpose vehicle for a minority investment in Truf, a truffle infused hot sauce maker valued at around two hundred and fifty million. While anonymous sources told Axios that Sky potentially raised more than the reported one hundred twenty one million, the firm remains far from its fundraising targets.

5:29 During its pre marketing stages, Sky reportedly aimed to invest in consumer and media companies, with many onlookers anticipating that these would be brands promoted by Kim herself. However, the reality star turned mogul has clarified that her role will be more of a traditional private equity advisor rather than a brand ambassador. Despite assembling a strong team, including the hiring of former Apple retail boss Angela Arens as a senior operating advisor, Sky's investors can't do much until the firm has more capital to work with. It remains to be seen how Sky will navigate these fundraising challenges and whether Kim's star power will be enough to attract the necessary investments to reach their lofty goals more in a moment.
