Kanye West is tipped to feature Kim Kardashian in his new video.
The rapper will premiere new visuals for his latest single "Bound 2" on the Ellen DeGeneres Show and the show's website suggested his fiancee - with whom he has daughter North West - "may or may not" make an appearance when the video streams exclusively on Ellentv.com on Tuesday.
The love song features R&B singer Charlie Wilson and is the second track to be released from Kanye's Yeezus album, which debuted at No.1 on the US Billboard 200 in May. "Bound 2" received general acclaim from critics, with the track's soul sample-based production often being compared to Kanye's early work from his debut studio album The College Dropout in 2004.
The news comes after American singer Ronnie Spector recently described Kanye West as "a d**k," but admitted that she favored his fiancee, Kim. Ronnie - who previously fronted the girl-group The Ronettes - told Noisey.com, "I am not a fan of Kanye West. I don't mind Kim, but I just don't like that guy. I'm not a fan of how he speaks. He's a d**k. I'm sorry. I don't like him. I'm just being honest."

Kanye West has been giving advice to students at Harvard.
The "Yeezus" rapper made his debut as a guest speaker at the prestigious Harvard School of Design yesterday, before his concert in Boston, and he explained why he's being doing two-hour interviews with the likes of Oprah Winfrey recently.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, he said, "The reason why I turn up so much in interviews is because I've tasted what it means to create and to be able to impact and affect in a positive way, and I know there is more creativity to happen. I know there are traditionalists that hold back the good thoughts and there are people [in] offices that stop the creative people and are intimidated by actual good ideas. And I believe, like, utopia is actually possible. But we're led by the least noble, the least dignified, the least tasteful, the dumbest and the most political. In no way am I a politician; I'm usually at my best politically incorrect and very direct. I really appreciate you guys' willingness to hone your craft and not be lazy."

Kris Jenner hopes Kim Kardashian and Kanye West will marry next year.
The couple - who have five-month-old daughter North together - got engaged last month after the rapper proposed at the AT&T Park baseball stadium in San Francisco in front of her family. Kim's mother Kris is very excited about the nuptials but has no idea when they will happen, although she is hoping for a 2014 ceremony.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight correspondent Cheryl Woodcock Kris was asked if she knew when the wedding will take place, to which she replied, "As soon as I know, I'm going to let you know. Hopefully, probably, next year." Kris also revealed Kim is yet to pick her bridal gown when quizzed by Cheryl, only answering, "Not yet."

Eminem Tries to Top Kanye West Interview
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Hip-Hop & Rap,
Eminem threatened to urinate in his interview.
The "Bezerk" rapper said he wanted to "pee on the floor" during a short teaser posted online ahead of his chat with BBC Radio 1 host Zane Lowe on Monday during which he insists on upstaging fellow rapper Kanye West's controversial interview with the host. Eminem figured the action would top the publicity generated after Kanye declared himself as "a God" when being quizzed by Zane last month, which later resulted in a spat between the "New Slaves" rapper and Jimmy Kimmel after the talk show host spoofed the interview.
"I was trying to figure out how I was going to top the publicity of yours and Kanye's interview. So I decided I was going to walk in here, pee on the floor and leave. I'm peeing right now. See you guys later," Eminem joked.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West to Move to UK?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Rumors,
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are planning to move to London.
The couple are planning to settle down in an upmarket area of the UK capital in a bid to give their five-month-old daughter North an "elite" education and social circle. "Kanye talks a lot about how he wants his kids to attend the same boarding schools as Kate Middleton and Prince William did. He wants them to go to Oxford, grow up alongside royalty and be part of the elite. They'll be buying a place and love the idea of Chelsea or Kensington," a source said.
The couple also see the move as a good chance to broaden their respective careers. "Kim and Kanye see London as the next phase of their empire growth. The US is pretty much a saturated market for them now, but their business people reckon that London could be their new LA," the source added.

Azealia Banks: I’m the Female Kanye West
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Hip-Hop & Rap,
Azealia Banks thinks she's the female Kanye West.
The "212" rapper believes she shares a spiritual connection with the hip-hop star and thinks no one else can even come close to their musical "genius." She told ELLE magazine, "Kanye is a genius. Kanye and I are like the same person but boy and girl. We're pulling from the same cloud, the same inspiration. We're both Geminis, we're the two premier avant gardists in hip hop music. It's just me and him. I think our consciousnesses are swirling around each other in some weird kind of way..."

Kanye West Pleas Not Guilty

Kanye West has pled "not guilty" after being charged with allegedly attacking a paparazzo.
The 36-year-old rapper - who was caught on film reportedly assaulting photographer Daniel Ramos at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) in July, was charged with criminal battery and attempted grand theft stemming from the incident last month but did not appear in court for the latest hearing on Thursday, and his lawyer Blair Berk entered the plea on his behalf.
If convicted of both misdemeanors, the "New Slaves" hitmaker could be sentenced to one year in jail.
Speaking outside the court afterward, Ramos' lawyer Gloria Allred criticized the rapper for not being present even though he wasn't legally required to be. "It's just interesting to me that one of the most visible people in the entire world, Kanye West, who seems to love the press when it comes to promoting his music, when it comes to his relationships, especially family relationships, doesn't appear to want to at least come to court," she told TMZ. "I understand that his tour was cancelled so I don't see a reason why he couldn't be here, he certainly had a right to be here today," she added.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Are Suing YouTube Co-Founder

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are suing YouTube co-founder Chad Hurley.
The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star and the rapper claim the billionaire "manipulated" his way into AT&T Park in San Francisco and released unauthorized footage of the moment the "New Slaves" hitmaker proposed to her on her 33rd birthday on October 21.
According to court documents, obtained by gossip website TMZ.com, the couple are accusing Hurley of scheming to post the video of the intimate moment on his new Internet venture, MixBit. Their lawyer Eric George also trashes the entrepreneur, claiming Hurley is desperate to find a "second act" because two of his other businesses have flopped since he sold YouTube for $1.65 billion.
It was previously reported that Kanye invited Kim's close family and friends, along with several well known Silicon Valley founders to watch his surprise proposal, but Hurley wasn't invited and they only let him stay after he signed a confidentiality agreement. They attached a picture of him holding the agreement to the lawsuit, which also states, "Hurley proceeded to try to turn the event into one starring himself, broadcasting the images he knew were the exclusive property rights of someone else."

Lana Del Ray Turned Down Kanye West
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Engagements,
Lana Del Ray refused to perform at Kanye West's surprise proposal to Kim Kardashian. The 36-year-old rapper popped the question to the reality TV star at AT&T Park in San Francisco on her 33rd birthday on October 21, and was forced to pay an orchestra $50,000 to play Lana's hit "Young & Beautiful" after the 27-year-old singer "politely declined" his request to sing the track, which is one of Kim's favorites, live.
"[Kanye] asked Lana to perform for Kim at surprise marriage proposal in San Francisco. Lana politely declined, and didn't give any reason for not being able to perform. It was a very firm no from Lana and her camp. Kanye did try to push it, but didn't get anywhere. Kanye decided to hire an orchestra to perform the song for Kim, and he was much happier with how it turned out," a source said. "Kim was bummed that Lana didn't perform for the big event, but she is still a huge fan. She just loved that Kanye tried to make it happen. Kim is jokingly saying Lana will want to perform at their wedding," the insider added.
Kanye West Is Becoming a ‘Bridezilla’

Kanye West is allegedly turning into a "bridezilla."
The "Blood On The Leaves" hitmaker - who has already vowed his wedding to Kim Kardashian will be the "biggest show on earth" - plans to oversee every aspect of their nuptials as he doesn't want it to be anything like the reality TV star's lavish wedding to Kris Humphries in 2011, whom she split from after 72 days.
"Kanye has a very specific vision of what the ceremony should look like and this won't be an understated or intimate event. Kanye wants the wedding to take place in Paris and has even indicated that he is willing to fly over Kim's family on his dime. Kim is just letting Kanye take charge, as she has done with all other parts of her life. She is being consulted on everything, but it's very different from how Kim handled her wedding to Kris. That was Kim's wedding. This is going to be Kanye's wedding," a source said.
The 19-time Grammy Award-winner, who has a four-month-old daughter North West with the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star, also plans to "see sketches of Kim's wedding dress, even though it's considered taboo for the groom to see it before!"
