Unlike Hunter Biden, she does not bear the burden of being the sole breadwinner for her extended family.<\/p>\n<p>Predictably, the media coverage\u00a0of Emhoff&#8217;s overnight transition into a hipster fashion icon has been excessively fawning. The <em>New York Times<\/em> described her style as &#8220;Wes Anderson chic,&#8221; which is just a fancy way of saying &#8220;rich and white.&#8221; And yet, the fact that Emhoff has tattoos and doesn&#8217;t shave her armpits has compelled many to embrace her as a revolutionary figure bringing much-needed diversity to the fashion industry.<\/p>\n<p>Not everyone agrees.\u00a0<em>Slate<\/em> published an <a href=\"https:\/\/slate.com\/human-interest\/2021\/01\/ella-emhoff-model-contract-ugh.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">article<\/a>, for example, making the (somewhat obvious) case that there isn&#8217;t\u00a0anything particularly revolutionary or diverse about being a rich, white, tall, thin, female Brooklynite with tattoos and armpit hair.<\/p>\n<p>Ivan Bart, president of IMG Models, told the <em>Times<\/em>\u00a0that being a model is &#8220;not really about shape, size or gender anymore.&#8221; Emhoff was a perfect fit for the organization, Bart said, because she exudes &#8220;cheekiness&#8221; and &#8220;joy&#8221; and &#8220;communicates this moment in time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>IMG is part of the entertainment conglomerate run by\u00a0Ari Emanuel, brother of Rahm Emanuel, the former Obama chief of staff, and Patrick Whitesell, a Democratic megadonor who contributed more than $150,000 to Democratic candidates and committees during the 2020 election cycle.<\/p>\n<p>Emhoff is hardly alone when it comes to first and second <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/satire\/clinton-project-nepotism\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">family members<\/a> who have cashed in on the political success of the Biden-Harris ticket. President Joe Biden&#8217;s pledge that family conflicts of interest would not be tolerated in his administration is already being put to the test after just a month in office.<\/p>\n<p>Biden&#8217;s brother, Frank Biden, has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/frank-biden-berman-group\/2021\/02\/02\/b1cf23a4-63f7-11eb-8c64-9595888caa15_story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">come under fire<\/a> for touting his relationship with the president as part of his work for a Florida law firm.
