Kanye West
Kanye West is no stranger to controversy – he’s picked fights with everyone from Jimmy Kimmel to Taylor Swift and not to forget the paparazzi. It looks like him being a new dad and fiancé to Kim Kardashian hasn’t calmed him down, this time he’s taking on fashion giant Louis Vuitton. West has asked his fans to boycott the label until January. The rapper revealed on 92.3 NOW radio station in New York after revealing that he was snubbed by their Vice President Yves Carcelle. This is the second attack on a fashion brand, the first being Fendi for rejecting his jogging pant idea.
“While I was in Paris I wanted to meet the head of Louis Vuitton and he said, ‘I don’t understand why we need to meet with you?’” says West. “I said, ‘Let me explain to you why you need to meet with me.’”
“‘Everybody in New York City right now, don’t buy any Louis Vuitton until after January. Now do you want to meet with me?’” he added. “Influence. They think that I don’t realize my power. They want to marginalize me.” “End of the day, it’s cool to be cool,” he said. “But people lining up for the Yeezys and daddy not getting paid ain’t gonna mean nothing to North ten years from now.”
However, there is a silver lining to this cloud. The rapper has signed a deal with sportswear giant Adidas to produce a line of shoes entitled Yeezus. (This was after Nike rejected a deal to partner with him).
Kim Kardashian
Umm sure Kanye MUST you pick a fight with EVERYONE? I wonder what the Kardashian klan will have to say to that since they’re such huge fans of the label.
