Anna Wintour US ambassador role rumours gather momentum Is Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour about to relocate to Europe as US ambassador to London or Paris? Rumours have resurfaced today about Anna Wintour's possible move away from fashion's front line - to take up an ambassadorial role for President Obama. The American Vogue editor-in-chief, who raised $40 million for Obama's re-election campaign via a series of starry fundraising dinners and her Runway To Win initiative - which saw leading lights of New York Fashion Week dream up Obama-themed designs - is, according to Bloomberg, high on the President's thank you list as he restructures his organisation. READ: Anna Wintour raised $40 million for Obama's re-election campaign Her reward? An ambassadorial post either in Paris or her birth city, London - both suitably chic postings for a woman with her credentials. However, Bloomberg caution against Wintour's nearest and dearest organising a welcome home party prematurely, naming Matthew Barzun - Obama's campaign finance chairman - as her main obstacle to the London post, officially titled 'ambassador to the Court of St.James's'. Barzun was also one of the re-election campaign's top tier fundraisers, meaning he also delivered in excess of $500,000 into the Democrat's coffers. But did he deliver dinner at Sarah Jessica Parker's apartment with Meryl Streep and Aretha Franklin? How about dinner at Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein's house with Gwyneth Paltrow, Alicia Keys and Quentin Tarantino? Is this Barzun character BFFs with Roger Federer? Does he have Karl Lagerfeld on speed dial? And that's before we even get into the wardrobe. Whether Anna actually wants to leave Vogue for a new life in Europe, or not, President, there can surely only be one person for the job? Forget the backyard BBQ at Number 10, next time you're in town - party at Anna's!
