In an interview with Teen Vogue in September of that year, the model said she had no regrets.
‘Part of it was already out there. There were reasons I thought it was reasonable to publish, because it was playing out in, like, a silent bubble.’
During that tempestuous time, Russell Simmons sued Kimora for fraud, alleging she took millions of dollars worth of energy-drink company Celsius stock to cover husband Tim Leissner’s legal fees in a money laundering case.
She made her runway debut in 2021 for Pyer Moss Paris Couture

In November, a court ordered the entrepreneur to pay Kimora some $100,000 to cover her legal fees after a hearing over the allegations.
In December, the US government issued a memorandum declaring the Def-Jam Records co-founder had no standing to sue.
In February, a former executive at Def Jam Recordings filed a lawsuit, alleging sexual harassment and battery while she was at the company in the 1990s.
The woman, known as Jane Doe in court papers, claimed she was raped by Simmons and that her ‘career in the music industry was disrupted and derailed by a devastating experience at the hands of Mr. Simmons.’
The suit was filed under New York’s Adult Survivors Act.
