Kanye West Faces Backlash for Disrespectful Comments About Michelle Obama on Podcast
In a new tirade that has ignited social media fury, Kanye West sparked outrage with a ‘disrespectful’ comment about the former First Lady, Michelle Obama. The American rapper , no stranger to controversies, made the remarks during his appearance on musician Justin Laboy’s show. The comment, widely condemned as sexist and uncalled for, has left netizens seething and demanding an apology.
Ye, who is currently married to former Yeezy model Bianca Censori, was blasted over his viral comment about the former president’s wife after a sneak peek of the premiere episode of Justin LaBoy’s The Download podcast was posted online.
“Who’s one other woman y’all gonna have a threesome with? You could pick anyone in the world,” the host asks the Vultures rapper, seemingly including Bianca Censori in his question. After taking some time to think and then laughing his mind out, Kanye responded, “ Michelle Obama ! You gotta f— the [former] president’s wife!”
His comments were met with criticism on social media, with one user writing, “This is sick.”
“Kanye, I’m sure Michelle is flattered but that invitation seems a little unrealistic. Maybe start with something more achievable, like learning to chew with your mouth closed.” Wrote another sarcastically.
The rapper faced cancellation earlier over his antisemitic rants before making a comeback with Vultures earlier this year.
