Kanye West Jokes About Kim Kardashian Sex Tape
Kanye West made one enemy at his Yeezus 3 launch party on Thursday night.
But he also tried to make one friend.
As previously detailed, Kanye let those in attendance at this event have a listen to his brand new album, “The Life of Pablo.”
And one lyric on a track from that album references his 2009 MTV Video Music Awards interruption of Taylor Swift, as Kanye raps that he made Swift famous by confronting her on stage.
He also ponders possible sex with Swift and calls her a bitch.
Not cool, ‘Ye. Not cool at all.
Elsewhere on the record, Kanye actually brings up the Kim Kardashian sex tape, calling out the man who porked his wife on video way back in the day.
Raps West:
I bet me and Ray J would be friends if we didn’t love the same b—-h / You might have hit it first, but I’m rich.
Ray J dated Kim Kardashian for many years, of course, until the couple split in 2007.
Right around that time, a sex tape they filmed at home magically appeared online, catapulting Kim to fame and leading to Ray J actually releasing a song in 2013 titled “I Hit It First.”
He’s pretty much our hero.
According to TMZ, meanwhile, West actually ran into Brandy at one point and asked her to tell her brother that he meant no disrespect by this lyric.
He passed along this same message to Ray J’s manager.
How does Ray J feel about the reference? He’s all good with it.
The guy (somehow) has four TV shows on the air right now and he’s STILL receiving a monthly check for Kim Kardashian Superstar purchases.
He hit it first and he made sure that said hit continued to pay off for years to come.
Like we said, Ray J is pretty much our hero.
Kanye West on Taylor Swift: I Made That B-tch Famous!
Now you’ve gone ahead and done it, Kanye West.
It wasn’t cool when you Tweeted that Bill Cosby was innocent this week and we really hope you aren’t as transphobic as some believe.
But now you’ve actually messed with Taylor Swift.
The rapper is dominating talk in the entertainment world today because he debuted his Yeezus 3 fashion line on Thursday night, while also treating viewers at the event to songs from his brand new album.
And one lyric above all stood out from the rest.
It’s from the fourth track on “The Life of Pablo” and it goes like this:
For all my Southside n—-s who will know me best/I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/Why, I made that bitch famous/God damn/I made that bitch famous.
We’ll overlook the fact that Kanye also disses wife Kim Kardashian here (he might still have sex with someone else?!?) and just focus on his claim that he made Swift “famous.”
West, of course, is referring to the 2009 incident in which he interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech on stage at the MTV Video Music Awards.
The artists, however, made up a long time ago and have even talked about collaborating on a song in the years since.
Heck, Kanye sent Taylor flowers last year and Swift said she may run as his Vice President in 2020.
Swift is yet to speak on the very public insult, but best friend Jaime King wrote the following on Twitter:
“I’m so sad right now & disappointed right now. I stand by my sister. Always.”
Gigi Hadid, who attended the fashion show and album launch party, added:
“My attendance somewhere does not mean I agree with everything being said in the music playing there. My friends know of my loyalty.”
How dare you, Kanye?!? We’re gonna sit here all day and wait for an apology.
Scandal Season 5 Episode 10 Recap: Six Months Later...
What a difference six months can make.
We jumped way ahead on Scandal Season 5 Episode 10, learning that Olivia was back to her old ways.
She has dinner with her dad at one point. She had dessert with Jake (if you know what we mean!).
She and her team also helped the first female NSA director determine who hacked into her secret files, although she was stunned by what she found out: the culprit was Jake.
And by the time OPA got to the bottom of what he had done, Jake had been named the new director of the NSA.
Olivia went to confront Jake over his evil scheme, only to be met at his apartment by her father, who said “the world is a safer place” with Jake in charge.
We don’t necessarily disagree. But come on, Jake!
Did you need to kill an innocent man to achieve that position?
ELSEWHERE…
- Abby needed help from Cyrus to find her place in her marriage to Fitz (for real!) and in the White House, finally telling Fitz to stop treating her like a “companion animal” and more like a competent cohort who is the press secretary, remember.
- Mellie paid OPA a visit because she needed help with her book. Liv somehow found time to read the memoir and offer the following advice to her former enemy: “Write a real book. Tell the people who you are and what you’ve been through.”
So that’s where we are, Gladiators.
Which development depicted on the 2016 premiere did you find most shocking? Will you ever be able to look at Jake the same way again?
