She’s opened up on their relationship.

Julia Fox has made claims about the way in which Kanye West allegedly took control while they were dating.

The pair were linked for a pretty brief stint back in 2022, a relationship the model has previously said she regrets ‘so much’.

West began dating Fox not long after his divorce was finalised with Kim Kardashian, with the pair quickly photographed together.

And the Italian American actor has said in her memoir Down the Drain that she felt like a ‘prop’ being used for a ‘publicity stunt’.

Fox said there was a ‘weird, twisted game’ on the rapper’s side and their short-lived romance left her feeling ‘used’ and ‘dirty’, referencing the say he had over what she wore.

It’s said that just days after meeting, Ye had signed two of her best mates up to be her stylists. They would apparently then take direction from him over what Fox could be seen wearing in public.

When the pair were linked, her son was only just coming up to one year old, sharing him with ex-husband Peter Artemiev.

And in one conversation, West allegedly offered to get Fox a boob job because the little top he had dressed her in didn’t sit right.

She wrote in her memoir: “The artist’s words cut through the air, sharp and unexpected. I look at myself in the mirror, taking in my post-baby body. ‘They’re not so bad,’ I think to myself.”

Claiming the Yeezy designer would decide all aspects over her public image, the mum felt like she’d lost any control over herself.

“I watch powerless as my life shrinks to fit inside cardboard boxes,” she added. “The new clothes he got me won’t fit inside my small place.”

Fox has previously claimed that West went public with their relationship without her approval and in the memoir claims he’d only ‘grab’ and kiss her when they were in front of cameras.

She also alleges that she was urged to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) after going their separate ways but refused.

In what has become a famous excerpt, she commented on the relationship for The Times’ Weekend Magazine, saying: “I regret that relationship so much. I hate it! It was only a few weeks but enough to last me a lifetime.

“I was in probably the most uncomfortable position in my life and that’s saying a lot. I don’t want to be known for being anyone’s girlfriend.”

Kanye West boldly shares his staggering confirmed net-worth two years after nearly going bankrupt

Kanye West boldly shares his staggering confirmed net-worth two years after nearly going bankrupt

“I miss the old Kanye… the nearly broke Kanye”

Kanye West has revealed the staggering amount he’s worth – just two years after allegedly losing $2 billion (£1.6 billion) in one day.

It’s fair to say the rapper – who reportedly changed his name to Ye in 2021 – has had a rollercoaster couple of years when it comes to finances.

Being the mastermind behind hits such as ‘Stronger’, ‘Gold Digger’ and ‘American Boy’, you’d think that Ye was set for life several times over when it came to money.

However, the rapper found himself in a sticky spot a few years ago when he came two months away from filing for bankruptcy.

Back in 2022 the rapper embarked on a series of shocking anti-semitic rants on social media, leading to brands such as Adidas, Balenciaga and Gap ending business partnerships with him. The move meant that Ye faced huge financial losses, with the Adidas partnership – who were the former distributors of his Yeezy brand – estimated to have been worth around $1.5 billion (£1.31 billion) alone.

The rapper would then claim that he ‘lost’ 2 billion dollars in one day in a social media post aimed at businessman Ari Emanuel, who had previously urged brands to stop working with him.

Ye opened up further about his financial woes to TMZ last year, revealing that he was ‘two months from going bankrupt’ at one point.

“I’m just be honest with y’all. I was two months from going bankrupt, and I put everything I had into it [the album and the Super Bowl advert],” he told the outlet, adding that he relocated to Italy with his wife Bianca Censori during the chaos.

“We moved to Italy. We moved to the factories, and we survived. We survived through the cancellation. We’re back number one.”

So how are Ye’s finances doing now?

Well, if the rapper’s most recent Instagram post is to be believed, he’s officially regained his billionaire status.

Sharing a screenshot of a valuation from US business valuation services Eton Venture, Ye revealed that his current net-worth stands at a staggering $2.77 billion (£2,22 billion).

“In 2025, Ye’s net worth stands at $2.77billion USD as confirmed by Eton Venture Services,” the statement read.

“The valuation is based on his music portfolio and his sole ownership of the Yeezy mark.”

Ye seemed more than happy with the news, captioning the post with: “LAA LA LA LA.”

Looks like Ye and Censori can go back to subjecting the public to their bizarre outfits, safe in the knowledge that being cancelled doesn’t matter when you’ve got a huge back-catalogue of music and billions of dollars to fall back on.

Kanye West refuses to sign autograph after seeing what fan has in her hand

Kanye West refuses to sign autograph after seeing what fan has in her hand

The rapper wasn’t vibing with the fan’s taste

Kanye West wasn’t going to be signing an autograph after seeing what the young fan had in her hand.

West – who legally changed his name to Ye – is well known for standing firm on his opinions and beliefs, and this recent interaction with a fan only went and further proved this.

When the rapper stepped out on in the rain to meet some of his fans while attending Paris Fashion Week 2024, he posed for snaps with fans as a young girl asked him to sign her little note pad.

But she’d gone for a choice of pen that wasn’t exactly in line with the star’s brand as he stood in a black anorak, Nike gloves and titanium grills.

In the viral video, he asked her: “Is that a pen?”

And in her hand was a small bunny-shaped, pink and white pen.

West shares four kids with ex-wife Kim Kardashian, North, 10, Saint, eight, Chicago, six and Psalm, four. But he wasn’t a fan of the youngster’s choice of stationery and refused to use it.

The ‘Jesus Walks’ rapper said: “Y’all gonna make me hold a bunny pen?”

He laughed with the crowd of fans as he asked them: “Nobody else got a pen another pen.”

It did seem a little like West wasn’t going to sign the autograph at all but luckily, someone offered up a more, well, standard pen for him to use.

TikTok users joked they were surprised Ye isn’t ‘rockin with bunny pens’ as his fans added: “I don’t like bunny pens anymore.”

Another added “Bro got beef with bunny pens,” as one put: “Justice for the bunny pen.”

Others wrote on X: “I know Kanye is unique asf but what’s wrong with bunny pens?”

Some simply slammed: “I would’ve used the bunny pen,” as many said: “It is still a pen.”

And one joked: “Kanye secretly liked the bunny pen. He should embrace the aesthetic of the bunny pen.”

He eventually signed the autograph with a different pen.

Miley Cyrus had an autograph signing slip up of her own recently when she asked a fan if they had a pen.

The singer ended up going viral as she met an excited fan who wanted her to sign their copy of The Last Song – the novel that inspired the movie where she met ex-husband Liam Hemsworth.

And Cyrus got her words mixed up as she initially asked: “Do you have a lighter on you?”

But she ended up laughing as she hilariously corrected herself: “You know where my mind is… Can I have a Sharpie?”
