Despite all the criticism and heat Anna Wintour and Vogue received after they unveiled Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's cover, the issue is on pace to outsell Beyonce's and even the First Lady Michelle Obama's Vogue issues. 

According to the New York Post, the April issue is set to sell around 400,000 copies. Beyonce's cover sold more than 355,000 copies and Michelle Obama's cover sold nearly 300,000.

Controversy sells.
