How are either of these two shitstains still relevant to anyone?

Cause there’s a lot of nosey gossipy bitches out there.

It's just stupid gossip but...

Morgan attempted to get back to his questions and started to ask about Ye's controversial social media posts. "I watch what you put out on X, you have 32 million followers," the host began. "You're one of the most followed people —"

"Now, look, right now you're not going to take inches off my dick, bro," Ye interjected. "Like, how many followers do I have?"

"Well, how many is it?" Morgan asked.

"You can do the study, you got a whole staff over there," Ye countered.

Morgan then checked the number with a staffer and corrected himself: "I'm told it's 33 million," he said. "So congratulations, you have a slightly bigger following than I thought."

"No, congratulations [that] your information is correct," Ye said, then launched into a rant[...]

that's not even 10% of the US Population yet Kanye thinks he is big fish. Not even a tenth listens to his rants on a fascist platform. What a big baby.

He's not big fish but definitely a gay fish.

Do you like fish sticks?

10% still makes it sound like a lot, but a big chunk of those have to be outside the US (if they're even all active accounts).

Ye? Did he donate the K to the kkk the A to the Aryan brotherhood and hide the N for ....

Seriously what's with Ye

He's both addicted to attention, and mentally ill.

I suppose after the whole South Park thing it's hard to come back.

Wow, 3% wrong... But I feel this isn't even going to make a footnote in the list of controversies on his (Ye/Kanye West's) Wikipedia article.

clearly Kanye West has small dick energy.

That’s why he identifies as white

jesus christ stop giving Ye attention. That means you, reader. Stop clicking on these articles.

One of the symptoms of bipolar disorder is "delusions of grandeur".

...But Ye is rich as fuck, and everyone keeps giving him attention, even if it's just to gawk at him. Everyone is feeding his neurosis.

This disease unravels people. It changes their personality. It robs them of their ability to sleep. It rewrites their memories. **If ** (with emphasis on "if") there is good in Ye we might never see it, because in order for him to truly get help he has to see himself as the problem.

Stop giving clicks to this mentally ill Nazi fuck, and stop giving clicks to people who platform him. Piers Morgan is a vulture.

That is so ridiculous of Ye.
