Kanye West Is Not Dead! However, “RIP Kanye West” has managed to become a top trending topic tonight on twitter after rumors circulated that he was killed in a car accident in LA earlier today. According to the fake story, he was in a car crash involving two luxury vehicles. An LAPD officer “reportedly” witnessed the wreck and saw a red Ferrari and a white Porsche “spinning out of control. The Ferrari (driven by West) hit the curb and then collided with a pole while the Porsche sped away.” Two people were supposedly arrested and detained by police.

Who comes up with these elaborate stories??? His girlfriend Amber Rose was outraged at the trending topic. She writes:

This RIP KanyeWest topic is not funny and its NOT TRUE! He has people like myself and his family that love him very much. Its in extreme poor taste to have that as a trending topic. It’s totally disrespectful to make up a story like this. We are all human and we all make mistakes and to say someone died cuz of a mistake is ridiculous. U wouldn’t want someone to say that about u. Or someone u love it’s not funny.

I’ll always ride for my man!!!! I’m bout to get off here and still RIDE for him. LITERALLY.

In the meantime, Kanye West has pulled a controversial short film from his site earlier today with the apology “SORRY, I HAD TO TAKE IT DOWN”. In the film titled “We Were Once A Fairytale” Kanye depicts himself as a drunken man in the club misbehaving and having sex with women. He eventually vomits and stabs himself in the stomach. It has been interpreted by many as Kanye killing his ego. (RIP) You can watch it below:

Kanye West aka “The Louis Vuitton Don” recently debuted his new Louis Vuitton sneaker on the runways during Paris Fashion Week.

“To me, Louis Vuitton is the most important brand in fashion. I am proud to have collaborated with LV on these shoes and even more proud of the finished product,” he says.

Mega producer Kanye West has addressed the recent disses by 50 Cent aiming at his sexuality and music career.

Kanye revealed his stance against his former Sound Scan competitor.

“Just as a real human being, I can’t say that it doesn’t affect me,” Ye said. “He was my favorite rapper since Mase when he dropped, and when I used to be around him, he was one of the few people that I was like really fan of — I’m not here to beef with anybody. I’m trying to bring people together. I realize that my success and my mouth and everything rub people the wrong way every now and then, but I’m not finna have beef with anybody. I really walk around by myself. Like, I don’t wear jewelry. Like all these people are like he’s so arrogant, blah, blah, blah. I’m not arrogant, I’m just truthful.” (Bossip)

50 recently took a shot at Ye’s sexual orientation with the song “Play This On The Radio.”

“First they say that f*ggot hot/Them they let that junkie shot/Keep all them f*cking trophies tell me where the f*ck is mine/Im back on the underground/Back where im home now.” (Metro Lyrics)

He has also publicly mocked the Grammy-winning artist in concert.

“This is an exclusive,” the rapper told the crowd. “I want to perform for you the first single off my album Before I Self Destruct. I hope you all enjoy this.” Then the heartbeat percussion of Kanye’s “Love Lockdown” kicked in, with 50 mockingly lip-synching along with Kanye’s 808s single. 50 actually does a good job copycatting West, right down to Kanye’s onstage posturing. The song cuts out halfway through the first chorus, with Fiddy telling the crowd, “You see that. That’s what you’re stuck with.” The rapper adds, “I’m willing to accept your apologies for that last one.” (Rolling Stone)

We just got wind of a CRAZY RUMOR. According to the reputable adult industry website AVN.com, rapper Kanye West made an EXPLOSIVE claim to King Magazine. In a recent interview with King, rapper Kanye West allegedly claimed that he wanted to make an adult film.

But not just any adult film – a “bisexual” one. Here’s how AVN.com is reporting the interview:

I know people will find that as another thing to hate me on, but f*ck it. I’m open to doing porn.

Hell, I’ll even do bisexual scenes – myself, another man and a woman, or just me and two women. I know people will find that as some weird sh*t, but I am who I am.

But the AVN.com website added this disclaimer:

AVN believes Mr. West misspoke of “bisexuality” and most likely has zero desire to gargle another man’s sack. What Mr. West probably meant to say was that he would perform in a b/g/b scene.

WOW!!!! Generally we would say that this rumor was a fake. But AVN.com is one of the biggest Adult Industry websites in the world. And ‘Ye is known to say some RECKLESS stuff…
