Kanye West’s Online Meltdown Ends in Sudden Disappearance
New York (CNN) — Rapper and designer Kanye West, also known as Ye, has once again found himself at the center of public controversy following his latest actions on social media and in public appearances.
Grammys Red Carpet Drama
The 47-year-old musician made headlines after attending the Grammys, where he controversially instructed his wife, Bianca Censori, to remove her black coat, revealing a transparent dress for photographers. The unexpected request quickly became a hot topic, with many debating Bianca’s bold fashion choice. West later claimed that her online search volume had even surpassed that of the Grammy Awards itself, emphasizing her widespread impact.
West Denies Bipolar Disorder, Claims Autism Diagnosis
In a recent podcast interview, West dismissed prior reports about his bipolar disorder, instead claiming that he is on the autism spectrum. This statement has been met with widespread skepticism, further fueling concerns about his mental well-being and erratic online behavior.
Controversial Social Media Activity
West’s X account (formerly Twitter) became a platform for his unfiltered thoughts, sparking massive backlash. Over the past week, he posted a series of incendiary remarks, including antisemitic, misogynistic, and racist statements. The rapper even went as far as to declare himself a Nazi, insult Jewish communities, and advocate for the release of Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs from prison.
Additionally, he faced criticism for selling Nazi-themed clothing on his official website, further deepening the outrage. His posts also included derogatory comments about overweight women and explicit content, leading to widespread condemnation from public figures.
Calls for Suspension and Musk’s Response
Prominent figures like David Schwimmer and Piers Morgan publicly called for his X account to be suspended. Amid the growing backlash, West posted:
“Elon stopped following me, so I don’t know how much longer I’ll be on Twitter/X. If I’m deleted, go to [his merchandise page].”
He later added:
“I’m logging out of Twitter. I appreciate Elon for allowing me to vent. It has been very cathartic to use the world as a sounding board. It was like an Ayahuasca trip. Love all of you who gave me your energy and attention. Until we connect again. Good afternoon and good night.”
West’s Account Deactivated After Super Bowl Rant
Before his account was deactivated, West launched into a tirade about Taylor Swift during the Super Bowl, further stirring controversy. Shortly after, his account was taken down, marking yet another social media fallout for the rapper.
Elon Musk later confirmed that West’s account had been labeled as “NSFW” (Not Safe for Work), preventing the public from viewing his content due to its explicit nature.
Ongoing Fallout and Industry Reactions
As the controversy surrounding West continues to escalate, brands and industry figures are distancing themselves from him. His past inflammatory statements have already led to the collapse of major business partnerships with companies like Adidas and Gap, and his latest actions may further isolate him from mainstream platforms.
Despite the public outrage, West appears unapologetic, continuing to push boundaries and provoke reactions. Whether this latest scandal will have long-term repercussions on his career remains to be seen, but for now, the backlash shows no signs of slowing down
