Everyone dreams about a cat who not only lives in style but also works for a living. This world-famous feline belongs to Karl Lagerfeld. The cat of the legendary fashion designer recently celebrated her 6th birthday, and her fans (yes, she has fans) learned a lot about her everyday life.
Choupette, the Burmese cat, has two personal maids, she often travels around the world, stays at the best hotels, and, of course, attends the big league fashion shows. The main source of her income is the Instagram and Facebook accounts, as well as her own line of accessories and profit from commercials. Over 150 thousand subscribers follow her social network accounts, closely watching her life. According to Lagerfeld, her annual income exceeds three million euros. Choupette even became the main character of the book about her. With help of her personal secretary Ashley Chudin, she regularly publishes caustic comments about the fashion industry and has become one of the few fashion bloggers who is allowed to criticize even Chanel.
Lagerfeld treats the cat as a person, moreover, in 2013 he said that he dreams of marrying Choupette. "There is no marriage, yet, for human beings and animals… I never thought that I would fall in love like this with a cat," the 80-year-old fashion designer stated in his interview with CNN. Now, knowing about Choupette’s income, one may wonder whether the marriage would be for love or for money.
