Kanye West’s controversial posts in recent weeks have caused quite a commotion, so much so, his Twitter and Instagram accounts have now been suspended.
It seems like the rapper has finally taken it too far.
Scroll down for the full story!
For many non-music lovers, Kanye is best known as the ex-husband of reality star Kim Kardashian.
And over the last few years, their relationship has been pretty tumultuous.
But of course, Kanye has his own reputation as a solo artist…
The Atlanta-born musician first gained fame in the year 2000 when he began to produce for artists on Roc-A-Fella Records. However, he would eventually go on to be credited with revitalizing Jay-Z’s career with his contributions to the rapper’s 2001 album, The Blueprint.
Releasing a number of wildly popular albums, such as My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Yeezus, The Life of Pablo, Ye, Jesus is King, and most recently, Donda.
He has also made a name for himself in the world of fashion.
The musician forced his way into the industry in 2004 and again in 2011, but it was his proposition in 2015 for Yeezy Season 1 with Adidas that really shifted the conversation and ultimately left a mark on the industry.
Yet despite all of this success, in 2015, the rapper revealed that he was experiencing some major financial struggles.
He told BET that he was $16 million in debt, and said a year later that he owed $53 million and asked Facebook Inc. founder Mark Zuckerberg to invest in him.
However, Kanye has always been optimistic that his fortune will one day take a turn for the better.
In 2013 he foretold The New York Times: “I will be the leader of a company that ends up being worth billions of dollars because I got the answers. I understand culture. I am the nucleus.”
So, with this confidence tiding him along smoothly, Kanye later began dabbling in the world of politics.
In 2018, Kanye, who is an avid Trump supporter, sat down with the then-president in the Oval Office where he proclaimed his support and declared Trump a “hero” in a bizarre, rambling televised monologue that spawned myriad parodies.
But, on July 4th, 2020, he took things to the next level.
Taking to Twitter, Kanye wrote: “We must now realize the promise of America by trusting God, unifying our vision, and building our future. I am running for president of the United States! #2020Vision.”
But, regardless of the haters, the rapper was deadset on his “2020 vision”…
And in July that year, he hosted his first-ever campaign rally.
However, it was an extremely alarming experience.
Kanye, who was clad in a bullet-proof vest with the numbers “2020” shaved into his head, threw his rally in Charleston, South Carolina, where he seemed to whip up various policy decisions right there on the spot, including humiliating his wife and family in the process.
His then-wife, Kim Kardashian, was later forced to address Kanye’s erratic behavior.
She posted a lengthy Instagram story explaining how difficult it is to live with bipolar disorder – a condition Kanye was diagnosed with back in 2016 – and how she will do anything to protect her husband and her children.
It was an understandably difficult time for Kanye and his family…
So his supporters weren’t surprised when he stepped down from his campaign to take some time to reconcile.
But that didn’t keep Kanye from running for some kind of president…
On the official ballot cards, Kanye Omari West was listed as the Vice President for the American Independent Party.
Remarkably, some people actually voted for Kanye…
Including Kanye himself.
Yep, in perhaps the most Kanye West move of 2020, the rapper took to Twitter to reveal that he had voted for someone he “truly trusts” – himself.
Of course, Kanye didn’t win the 2020 election…
And sadly following that, things went from bad to worse for the rapper as it was confirmed that he and Kim were getting divorced.
It’s safe to say, the past few years seem to have been a difficult time for Kanye.
But it seems he has hope for the future!
Speaking at the L.A. Mission, he opened up about the breakdown of his marriage.
He admitted he had done things that were “not acceptable as a husband.”
But also said “The Kingdom” will ensure he and Kim get back together.
He also said he believes if he and Kim can make it work, they’ll act as inspiration to other struggling marriages out there.
However, Kanye seems to have changed his tune (quite literally), with a new song directly aimed at the Kardashian family.
The tune, titled My Life Was Never Eazy, calls out Kim, Pete Davidson, and even the Kardashian children.
In one line, Kanye sings: “We havin’ the best divorce ever // If we go to court, we’ll go to court together // Matter of fact, pick up your sis, we’ll go to Kourt’s together.”
In another, Kanye says he “watched 4 kids for like 5 hours today.”
Before moving on to rap about the children being brought up by their nannies and cameras: “I got love for the nannies, but real family is better // The cameras watch the kids, y’all stop takin’ the credit.”
Singing again about the kids, Kanye says:
“When you give ’em everything, they only want more // Boujee and unruly, y’all need to do some chores // Rich-a** kids, this ain’t yo mama house // Climb on your brother’s shoulders, get that Top Ramen out.”
Shortly after the song was released, Kayne hit out at Kim again as he filmed himself claiming that Kim had refused to tell him where their daughter Chicago’s birthday party was being held.
He claimed he had contacted Kim and the children’s nannies however, “nobody give me the address to my daughter’s birthday party right now. That’s gonna imprint in her mind that I wasn’t there for her.”
Eventually it appeared that Kanye was allowed into the party as he later shared a video thanking Kylie’s partner, Travis Scott, for providing him with the address.
“I just gotta shout out to Travis Scott for sending me the address and the time, and making sure that I was able to spend that birthday memory with my daughter to be there with the rest of the family,” he said before adding that Kylie let him in.
And that wasn’t the only thing that got Kanye worked up…
The rapper has also shared that he doesn’t think it’s right for their daughter, North, to be on TikTok.
Kim was reportedly feeling “overwhelmed and upset” by Kanye’s actions.
A source told ET that “Kim has been overwhelmed and upset by Kanye’s recent interviews and antics.”
“Kim’s main priority has always been their children,” the source said. “Her goal has always been to have a healthy co-parenting relationship with Kanye, where both of them are involved.”
The source continued to explain that “Kim had an incredible relationship with her dad, even after her parents got divorced, and she wants that for her kids too.”
“Kim has just been trying to put a structured plan in place so that her children can feel safe, secure, protected, and loved by the both of them.”
Kim recently said that Kanye West was hurting the children by attacking her online.
And this comes after he posted to Instagram about his daughter, North:
“SINCE THIS IS MY FIRST DIVORCE I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO ABOUT MY DAUGHTER BEING PUT ON TIK TOK AGAINST MY WILL ?” he wrote.
And well, Kim doesn’t usually stand up to Kanye publicly.
But, this time, she did…
Kim took to Instagram to hit back at Kanye and to try putting an end to Kanye’s attacks on her parenting style.
“Kanye’s constant attacks on me in interviews and on social media is actually more hurtful than any TikTok North might create,” she began as per the news outlet.
“As the parent who is the main provider and caregiver for our children, I am doing my best to protect our daughter while also allowing her to express her creativity in the medium that she wishes with adult supervision — because it brings her so much happiness,” she continued.
She then got real…
And said: “Divorce is difficult enough on our children and Kanye’s obsession with trying to control and manipulate our situation so negatively and publicly is only causing further pain for all.
“From the beginning, I have wanted nothing but a healthy and supportive co-parenting relationship because it is what is best for our children and it saddens me that Kanye continues to make it impossible every step of the way,” she finished.
And then, if that wasn’t enough, she’s shared the real reasons she decided to divorce the rapper…
In Vogue’s March issue, the mogul let us all in on the life changes that made her realize what she truly wanted.
“For so long, I did what made other people happy and I think in the last two years I decided, I’m going to make myself happy,” she said.
“And that feels really good. And even if that created changes and caused my divorce, I think it’s important, to be honest with yourself about what really makes you happy.”
The latest situation has seen Kanye take to Instagram to share a selection of posts, most of which have since been deleted, and have left people very confused.
In one post, that has since been deleted, Kanye shared a picture of a truck full of roses as he wrote: “MY VISION IS KRYSTAL KLEAR.”
The word were also painted on the side of the truck which was supposedly sent to Kim.
It comes after Kanye and Julia ended their short relationship.
Speaking to Fox News, the actress’s representative said: “Julia and Kanye remain good friends and collaborators but they are no longer together.”
In another post, the Daily Mail reports that Kayne shared a screenshot of a text message with Pete Davidson.
In the screenshot, Pete appeared to message Kanye: “…you as a man I’d never get in the way of your children. That’s a promise. How you guys go about raising your kids is your business and not mine. I do hope [some] day I can meet them and we can all be friends.”
Kanye posted the screenshot with the caption: “No you will never meet my children.”
Following Kanye’s attack on Pete, Kim appeared to have had enough of the situation as she asked Kanye to stop putting Pete in danger.
In yet another since deleted post, Kanye shared a picture from the film Baby Boy that shows Tyrese Gibson in a chokehold, the outlet reports.
Alongside that he shared another screenshot from his messages with Kim.
The screenshots showed Kim telling Kanye that he is “creating a dangerous and scary environment and someone will hurt Pete and this will be all your fault.”
Captioning the post on Instagram, Kanye repeated Kim’s pleas to keep Pete safe as he wrote: “UPON MY WIFE’S REQUEST PLEASE NOBODY DO ANYTHING PHYSICAL TO SKETE IM GOING TO HANDLE THE SITUATION MYSELF.”
Before Kim added in another screenshot shared by Kanye: “There are dangerous people out there and this is scary and it doesn’t have to be,” the outlet reports.
Kanye responded to Kim in the messages writing: “I will always do everything to protect you and our family forever. And I listened to you and told everyone to make sure nothing physical happens to Skete.”
Kanye’s attacks on both Kim and Pete have been pretty constant, but throughout it all, many people believe that Kim has handled it well.
But following his constant attack, Kanye opened up about how the divorce made him feel, especially when it came to his kids…
He opened up to Hollywood Unlocked not long ago, explaining he was denied access to Kim’s house to see his kids…
“My daughter wanted me to go inside. I was like, I am the richest Black man and North’s father, right, and the security was able to stop me from going into the room with my daughter,” he said.
He continued, “And I am hearing that the new boyfriend is actually in the house that I can’t even go to,” clearly referring to Pete.
He then detailed his feelings in his new album Donda.
In one of his new songs, the rapper says: “Pops home, I ain’t getting frisked / I put your security at risk.”
He continues: “I walk in the crib, no getting frisk / Butt-naked in the kitchen cooking grits / Tell yo’ mama, “Come give me a kiss” / Security gon’ need security for this.” This seems to imply Kanye will do whatever it takes to be part of their lives again.
Ye goes on to rap: “Never take the family picture off the fridge / Never stand between a man and his kids.” This is definitely aimed at Pete.
And then in another song on the album, titled “True Love”, Kanye goes into more detail about his role as a father.
Kanye says: “Wait, when you see the kids? I’ll see y’all tomorrow / Wait, when the sun set? I see y’all tomorrow.”
“Wait, when I pick ’em up, I feel like they borrowed / When I gotta return them, scan ’em like a bar code.”
He continues: “I only seen three kids who watchin’ Chicago / And you know all the nannies said, “Daddy in Nebraska” / Let the kids dig a tunnel to my house like Chapo.” Which is about Kanye’s ranch in Wyoming, Nebraska that he left to live at leaving Kim and the kids at home, something which inevitably led to their divorce.
But, since the very public feud amid Kim Kardashian’s divorce from Kanye West…
Kanye has taken it upon himself to try and be better.
We saw this especially when Kanye retrieved copies of Kim Kardashian’s alleged s*x tape so that it could not be leaked. But, in trying to go above and beyond for his family, there are just some things North isn’t impressed by.
Since the new season of Keeping Up with The Kardashians aired…
We’ve surprisingly seen Kanye playing quite a loving and protective role in Kim’s life, despite his upset over the divorce, and Pete becoming a part of her life.
And he’s been making a much better effort to be civil with Kim while he continues to help parent their children…
It’s very clear that both Kim and Kanye just want the best for their children, and that Kanye was just going through a rough time, struggling to deal with it in a way that didn’t affect Kim and his children…
Now, it seems as though they’ve both started to get the hang of communicating healthily with one another again, and they’re on a roll.
Things have certainly been looking up as we’ve been seeing how adorable Kanye is being with Kim’s family during the season’s episodes.
However, in the most recent episode, something Kanye did… didn’t seem to bode well with North West.
This came as he showed up at Kim’s house in what was a very unusual way to get around so that he could pick North and Saint up and take them to school.
What did Kanye show up in? You may be wondering…
He showed up in a firetruck. Yes, it’s certainly more extravagant than the roses he delivered to her a couple of months back.
But, despite its extravagance, North didn’t seem all that bothered.
She’d seen the mode of transportation before her younger brother, Saint, had seen it, and when Kanye excitedly asked if she had kept it a secret from “Sainty”, she simply replied by saying “No. Mom said it was a surprise,” as per E! Online.
And while Kim bigged the ride up…
North continued with her short responses.
“Is this not the coolest thing ever? Who gets to ride in a fire truck?” said Kim, for North to respond with “I do.”
And when her mom continued to try and make the experience special saying that she “didn’t” think anybody had ridden in a firetruck to school before…
North’s response was once again very witty, saying “well, probably not to school, but firefighters did.”
Kanye then said, “everyone wants to be a cool dad.”
And in his opinion, to do that, you just have to “wear the fire hat.”
Now, since Kim Kardashian got with Pete Davidson, things seemed to have been going swimmingly.
But, obviously, there were some cracks, with Sky News reporting that the pair have now gone their separate ways.
Apparently, the couple still has “a lot of love for each other” but their work commitments “made it really difficult to maintain a relationship.”
However, despite the reason allegedly being that their erratic work patterns don’t match, some believe it’s something entirely different.
Following the news of their breakup, everyone is saying the same thing.
While most are expressing their lack of surprise over their breakup, countless people are pointing fun at the tattoos Davidson got for Kim, reports UNILAD.
Back in April, fans spotted a tattoo on Davidson which read KNSCP which would be Kim’s initials along with those of her four children.
One person tweeted:
“Pete Davidson really got all those tattoos for Kim Kardashian only for them to break up.”
Another commented:
“You’re laughing? Pete Davidson has a tattoo of Kim Kardashian’s kids and you’re laughing?”
A third wrote:
“Pete Davidson’s tattoo removal guy just put a down payment on another boat.”
Pete Davidson’s mom has since shared a photo of her son.
The photo was snapped during Pete’s sister’s graduation from college.
“A beautiful day celebrating @caseydavidson!! PA 💙,” Amy wrote via Instagram on Friday.
Since then, the real reason behind their split has been revealed.
And it all comes down to her commitment to motherhood.
According to an insider, the pair are on very different life paths.
“Pete is twenty-eight and Kim is forty-one — they are just in very different places at the moment,” the insider said, as per Page Six.
“Pete is totally spontaneous and impulsive and wants her to fly to New York, or wherever he is on a moment’s notice.”
“But Kim has 4 kids and it isn’t that easy. She needs to focus on the kids,” they added.
Since their split, Pete has been spotted for the first time, wearing a pretty cryptic T-shirt.
He was snapped in Cairns, Australia, where he’s currently filming for Wizards!.
Wearing a t-shirt that reads “What … I feel like s**t.”
Now, that might just be a coincidence, but we’re guessing it has some meaning behind it.
You can see the photo here.
But Pete isn’t the only one getting snapped.
Kim recently posted a photo of herself with Chicago and North, and what she’s wearing has left fans questioning if she’s back with Kanye.
Her latest Instagram post has got a lot of people talking.
One Facebook user wrote: “She wants to go back.”
Another added: “I knew it, she’ll come back to Ye.”
“They’re going to probably get back together or some bs,” a third commented, followed by a fourth fan, who echoed: “I think they’re going to end up back together.”
Kim could be seen sporting a black bodysuit with the iconic Yeezy sunglasses.
Chicago and North also posed with her, both donning the SHDZ YR 3022 shades.
Despite the speculation, Kim has always admired Kanye’s style, so it might not be as deep as fans are making out.
You can see her post here.
But it seems as though Kanye is going through a breakup of a different kind…
A professional one!
He has publicly thrown shade at Gap, the clothing retailer that stocks his Yeezy collaborations…
And people are pretty shocked about what he’s written — and posted.
He took to Instagram to accuse the brand of ripping off a Yeezy Gap Engineered by Balenciaga design for the brand’s regular, non-Yeezy label.
Kanye shared a screenshot of his DMs with an unidentified recipient, in which the person had sent him what appears to be a screenshot of a Gap product photograph.
In the photo, the model is wearing a dark-colored T-shirt with the Gap logo on it.
The unidentified person claims that Gap is copying the Yeezy Gap Engineered by Balenciaga collection.
To which Kanye responded, “Exactly.”
Many think Kanye has taken it too far and that his deal with Gap will soon be over.
The forty-five-year-old rapper recently disclosed a lot of known secrets on his Instagram…
All of which have now been deleted.
Everyone knows that Kanye first announced he was starting a Christian school last year.
According to the Daily Mail, the private Christian academy, which was named after the rapper’s late mother Donda West, is also in the Los Angeles area. It has been billed as a faith and project-based school where ‘students grow in their faith and community through daily all-school worship and celebration at Sunday Service’.
Apparently, Kanye wanted his children to attend the school he founded, Donda Academy.
The children are currently attending a private preschool through twelfth-grade prep school in Los Angeles.
The star also rapper revealed in his latest posts that his p*** addiction destroyed his family…
And even said that Kim gets to make decisions on their children’s schooling because she is “half-white” and labeled his fellow Kardashian “sperm donors.”
The rapper also took a dig at Kwanzaa and how it was being taught at the children’s school, an institution he previously said he did not want his children attending.
According to reports, it appears Kim, however, didn’t want their kids going to that particular school.
“They teach black kids Kwanzaa at [school]. What the f*** is Kwanzaa and who made that bulls*** up.
“Everyone lives in LA for the check anyway so no one really cares about their children being indoctrinated,” he said.
If you didn’t already know, Kwanzaa is a celebration of African American culture that runs from December 26 to January 1 and is cultural rather than religious holiday.
Many modern practitioners celebrate both Christmas and Kwanzaa.
But that’s not all…
The rapper also took a dig at Kris Jenner, to which Kim responded…
But it was a forwarded text from the momager herself which read: “From my mom — PLEASE. Tell him to please stop mentioning my name. I’m almost sixty-seven years old and I don’t always feel great and this stresses me to no end.”
And it’s a screenshot of Kanye’s messages to Kim that has caught the most attention…
“It’s not up to Calabasas or Hulu where my kids go to school I’m not the crazy one here. I won’t stop until I have a say so on my kids no matter what it legally takes,” he blasted Kim through the messages.
“Can u please stop,” she said in response.
“No. We need to talk in person. You don’t have say so of where the kids go to school. Why get say say. Cause you half white?” the rapper replied.
But it’s the popcorn emoji in the caption that’s got everyone raising their eyebrows, is this meant to be a very private conversation or a movie theatre, Kanye?
As Kanye continues to bombard social media, he took a moment to clarify a post about his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, and her bathroom habits.
The rapper shared a viral post that was made to look like it came from him, but in fact, it did not.
He shared the post and told fans that the comment was fake and he had no part in it.
“This was not from me,” he said, “Someone copied my style of text and wrote something not funny.”
Kanye also clarified another post that was also misunderstood to be him.
He said: “I know you guys gonna be disappointed, but I actually didn’t write the teeet [sic] that said ‘Friends wasn’t funny either’ but I wish I had I’d love to know who thought of that I like to post comments.”
Kanye continued: “Cause y’all n****s is hilarious I love funny people and I think that’s one of the reasons me and Skete could’ve never been friends,” throwing a dig at Kim’s ex-boyfriend, Pete Davidson.
He finished the caption by writing: “I like to fight with jokes Sometimes we gotta laugh to keep from crying even when we dealing with serious topics.”
Following these messages, Kanye’s ex, Julia Fox, has opened up about their breakup…
“I was just going day by day and seeing where it went. It was just like, he still wants to hang out with me today, let’s do it. And then real life set in and the lifestyle wasn’t sustainable. I couldn’t fly away once a week. And I tapped out at the first sign of a red flag,” Fox told ES Magazine.
And as for the red flag?
“The unresolved issues that he was dealing with. It just seems like he had a lot to work on, and I just don’t have time for it, or energy. I don’t have the bandwidth or emotional capacity for it. I’m proud of myself for that. Pre-Valentino Julia would have definitely stuck it out and been there for longer,” Fox revealed.
Since then Kanye has been rather quiet until now…
In a new interview with Good Morning America, the rapper finally broke his silence and addressed all the drama.
The interview, which aired yesterday saw the rapper discussing fatherhood, co-parenting, and West’s presence on social media.
Opening up about their co-parenting agreement West said he had to “fight” for a “voice” on matters concerning his children.
“That hurts you when you have to scream about what your kids are wearing,” he said.
“I’m their dad. It has to be co-parenting. It’s not up to only the woman. Like, men have a choice also. Men’s voices matter,” he added.
“As a dad and as a Christian. And I have a right to have a voice on what my kids are wearing, what they’re watching, what they’re eating…”
“I have a platform where I get to say what so many dads can’t say out loud,” he continued.
And although many of West’s outbursts against Kim have taken place on Instagram, where he even shared private text messages with his seventeen million followers…
The rapper was asked whether he feels social media is hurtful or beneficial to him, and that was a turning point in the interview.
“That’s one of my favorite questions of this interview,” he replied.
“We could use a car to rush somebody to the hospital or we could use a car and accidentally hit somebody while we’re rushing somebody to the hospital, so it’s all in how you use it,” he added.
In a teaser clip to promote the program, West told host Linsey Davis: “This is the mother of my children and I apologize for any stress that I have caused, even in my frustration, because God calls me to be stronger.”
“I need this person to be less stressed and of the best, sound mind and as calm as possible to be able to raise those children,” Kanye added.
Kanye has made headlines again…
As fans noticed he had changed his Instagram profile picture to none other than Kris Jenner…
With many assuming it was a diss at the momager.
However, Kanye has explained why he made the move…
He took to Instagram Stories to share his intent behind the post…
And said that it was done with the best of intentions.
“I POSTED KRIS WITH THOUGHTS OF PEACE AND RESPECT. LETS CHANGE THE NARRATIVE,” he said.
And things have gotten even weirder, as Kanye was snapped looking bruised and bloody while wearing a Balenciaga mouth guard for Paris Fashion Week.
His outfit was chosen to match the theme of Balenciaga’s dystopian reality.
According to Vogue Magazine, Balenciaga’s creative director Denma Gvasalia said this season’s show was “a metaphor for digging for the truth and being down to Earth.”
He arrived at the event dressed in all black on Sunday.
And appeared to have added red marks to his face as part of his creative ensemble.
You can see a close-up of his look here.
But that’s not all…
During the Yeezy fashion show on Monday, Kanye was seen wearing a T-shirt with “White Lives Matter” printed on the back.
The front featured an image of Pope John Paul II, along with the text: “We shall follow your example.”
Kanye was also snapped alongside conservative Candace Owens, who wore an identical shirt in white.
Obviously, fans were shocked by the controversial shirt. One wrote: “That man a whole mess!! He needs Jesus even though he claims he found him already.”
While another added: “Maybe if he said ‘Human Lives Matter’ I would understand where he’s coming from. But this is a deliberate act of ignorance and sabotage of the real struggle most Black Lives go through to survive. Forced controversy in order to be relevant in the press and to get likes on social media.”
Jaden Smith came out against Kanye’s move, after walking out of the show himself.
The twenty-four-year-old had a lot of thoughts on the matter.
He took to social media to criticize Kanye.
As per The Independent, Jaden said in a now-deleted tweet: “I can’t stand behind what Kanye’s saying, he does not have the full support of the youth.”
Jaden appeared to denounce Kanye’s statement from the show, where he said: “I am Ye, and everyone here knows that I am the leader.”
Following the incident, Jaden tweeted: “True leaders lead.”
“I don’t care who it is if I don’t feel the message I’m out,” he added.
Jaden then tweeted: “Black Lives Matter”.
During the show, Kanye also said: “You can’t manage me.”
You can see the shirt in question here.
Since then, Kendall Jenner appeared to have her pal Jaden Smith’s back…
Kendall went ahead and liked her friend Jaden’s post about the show…
Subtly hinting at her support for her longtime friend.
And it seems she’s not the only one that has it out for Kanye…
A day after the runway show, Kanye went after Vogue contributing editor Gabriella Karefa Johnson, who shared her thoughts on his controversial clothing.
In response, Kanye posted several photos of the journalist on his Instagram along with captions criticizing her style.
But as per reports, his critique prompted Gigi Hadid to jump in and defend Gabriella, whom she has collaborated with in the past, and called Kanye “a bully and a joke.”
“You wish u had a percentage of her intellect,” the model wrote under one of his posts.
“You have no idea haha…. If there’s actually a point to any of your s***. She might be the only person that could save u. As if the ‘honor’ of being invited to your show should keep someone from giving their opinion? Lol,” she wrote.
On her own Instagram Stories, Gigi also called the style editor “one of the most important voices in our industry.”
While she didn’t mention Kanye by name in her post, she did write that Gabriella, who was recently honored on the Business of Fashion’s list of 500 people sharing the global fashion industry, “could school that disgraceful man in more ways than he knows.”
Hadid also shared a post by Vogue on her stories, which read: “Vogue stands with Gabriella Karefa-Johnson, our global fashion editor at large and longtime contributor.
“She was personally targeted and bullied. It is unacceptable. Now more than ever, voices like hers are needed and in a private meeting with Ye today she once again spoke her truth in a way she felt best, on her terms.”
Kanye also wrote on Instagram that he had a meeting with his “SISTER” Gabriella for 2 hours on October 4.
“WE APOLOGIZED TO EACH OTHER FOR THE WAY WE MADE EACH OTHER FEEL. WE ACTUALLY GOT ALONG AND HAVE BOTH EXPERIENCED THE FIGHT FOR ACCEPTANCE IN A WORLD THAT’S NOT OUR OWN,” the rapper said.
Hailey Bieber also showed support for Gabriella Karefa-Johnson in the wake of the backlash.
Hailey took to Instagram to post her support on her stories…
She wrote: “My respect for you runs deep my friend! to know you is to adore you and to work with you is an honor. the most kind. the most talented. the most fun. the most chic.”
It didn’t take long for Kanye to pick up on her comments.
In response, he uploaded a screenshot of a news article that read: “Hailey Bieber Joins Gigi Hadid in Defending Gabriella Karefa-Johnson After Kanye West Criticism.”
He captioned the post: “Wait Am I canceled again??? Justin please let me know.”
He then wrote a string of posts about his ‘White Lives Matter’ t-shirt before calling Hailey “nose job Hailey Baldloose”, and telling Justin to “get your girl before I get mad.”
Since then, it seems things have soured between Justin and Kanye’s friendship…
Sources close to Justin and Hailey told TMZ that Kanye’s attacks hurt them because the duo was there for the rapper when he was going through a tough time in his life back in 2020, and they even traveled to Wyoming to visit him at his ranch.
The source further revealed that both of them believe Kanye crossed the line, mainly because Hailey never attacked him in her defense of Gabriella…
While she said supportive things about her friend after Kanye publicly ripped into her, Hailey also confessed she’s never had a nose job.
And it looks like even Twitter and Instagram have had enough of Kanye’s outbursts.
A Twitter spokesperson told POPSUGAR on Sunday: “The account in question has been locked due to a violation of Twitter’s policies.”
According to reports, this comes after Kanye was confronted for tweeting remarks that were called out as anti-Semitic over the weekend.
The tweet, which has since been removed, read: “I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE. The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti-Semitic because black people are actually Jews also You guys have toyed with me and tried to blackball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.”
He also posted similar messages on his Instagram before his account was suspended.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, a Meta spokesperson confirmed that content from the rapper’s account was deleted and a restriction has been placed on it for an undetermined amount of time. Details on the content that was removed were not disclosed.
But that’s not all, the American Jewish Committee also shared a video compilation of Kanye’s rants on Instagram on Saturday alongside information on why his comments should not be taken lightly.
“Kanye’s week has consisted of Incoherent rants laden with racist and anti-Semitic undertones made on the country’s top cable news program. Anti-Jewish posts shared to his 18 million followers on Instagram. These posts are dangerous,” the AJC captioned the post.
What do you think?
