The activist continued with her activism and remains one of the most well-known people for her political takes.

Owens now has nearly 15 lakh subscribers on YouTube who get to see new videos or podcast interviews from her on a regular basis.

Candace Owens started off with her activism right from her college days. She even had a female-centric blog called Degree180. Now, a long time after that, she revealed to Vanity Fair about her career, life, and politics. Considering the stir she and Kanye West caused at Fashion Week in France, she ensured to talk about him as well. “Yes, I am aware this is going to come off as arrogant,” she said before admitting she feels like Kanye West.

Owens admitted to being a big fan of the ‘Donda’ Singer since her early years. From there she went on to stand with him, wearing the ‘white lives matter’ T-shirt. Their common ground in 2016 was their support for Donald J. Trump. Later came their development of the conservative platform Parler, which her husband George Farmer owns.
