Kim Kardashian has enough to deal with right now.
We imagine she’s still dealing with the trauma of being robbed at gunpoint last October in Paris, and if reports are to be believed, she’s expecting a new baby or two via surrogate.
If that weren’t enough, her husband, Kanye West, suffered a mental breakdown late last year, and it seems like he’s still working on getting himself well.
There are also all those divorce rumors that keep popping up …
The point is Kim has her plate full these days, and she doesn’t need more piled on.
But unfortunately, that’s apparently just what Jay Z did when he released his new album last Friday.
The issue is that, in one of the tracks on the album, Jay went after Kanye, and went after him hard.
“I know people backstab you, I feel bad too,” he rapped. “But this ‘f-ck everybody’ attitude ain’t natural.”
“But you ain’t the same, this ain’t KumbaYe, but you got hurt because you did cool by ‘Ye.”
“You gave him 20 million without blinkin’,” Jay Z continued. “He gave you 20 minutes on stage, f-ck was he thinkin’?”
“‘F-ckin’ wrong with everybody?’ is what you sayin’, but if everybody’s crazy, you’re the one that’s insane.”
Pretty rough, right?
It’s even rougher for Kim, who, according to a source who spoke to Hollywood Life, “gets very protective of her husband, like a mama bear.”
“She thinks it was a low blow to diss Kanye and throw around words like ‘insane’ after all he’s been through.”
“Kanye had a real difficult time last year,” the source continued, “and is still coming out of it, so to hit him like that wasn’t cool.”
And you know what? It really wasn’t.
To call someone who recently spent some time in a psychiatric facility to get help for some emotional issues “insane” — especially someone you used to consider a close friend — really is low.
And if the story wasn’t sad enough already, another source added that “Kim is worried sick that Kanye is getting too worked up over this feud.”
“She has worked so hard to get Ye to a more stable mental and emotional place and fears the strain of beefing with Jay will cause him to relapse back to an unhealthy mental state.”
Kim “really wants Kanye to focus on his health and the family,” but “instead he seems more and more concerned with work, money and the tour and that really concerns her.”
Yeah, if that’s true, it concerns us, too.
It seems like overextending himself was what caused Kanye to have a breakdown in the first place, and it seems like he’s doing the same thing all over again.
Why’d you have to go and be petty, Jay Z?
