First, there’s the cover highlighting the beautiful bromance between James Franco and Seth Rogen. The actors Photoshopped themselves into the Annie Leibovitz cover shot, keeping Kim and Kanye’s bodies intact but replacing their heads. The two had previously [recreated](http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/11/25/james-franco-and-seth-rogan-recreated-kanyes-controversial-bound-2-music-video-shot-for-shot/) Kimye’s video for Bound 2\. Rogen tweeted the image, saying “It had to be done,” and Franco posted it on Instagram: And then there’s the Muppets version which trades Kim and Kanye for Miss Piggy and Kermit. (Oh, and it also trades _Vogue_ for _Vague_.) > [](https://twitter.com/TheMuppets/status/447144468622217218) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/34727/kim-kardashian-vogue-cover-spoofs/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/34727/kim-kardashian-vogue-cover-spoofs/"},"headline":"Kim Kardashian's Vogue Cover Is So Much Better With James Franco and Seth Rogen","datePublished":"2014-03-23T14:28:20.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:08:03.493Z","description":"And the Muppets version is pretty good too","url":"https://time.com/34727/kim-kardashian-vogue-cover-spoofs/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Internet","viral","Kanye West","Vogue","james franco","Seth Rogen","Kim Kardashian","kanye","kimye"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/34727/kim-kardashian-vogue-cover-spoofs/","name":"Kim Kardashian's Vogue Cover Is So Much Better With James Franco and Seth Rogen"}}]}] ```
