Kanye West went on a rant about Hedi Slimane, the former Dior designer and current creative director for Saint Laurent, for not treating him like a “god.”
Kanye vented while onstage at MSG Saturday, “He was once a friend of mine, in the time of Christian Dior. And I used to wear his tight-ass jeans when I was on tour and get called names for it . . . And Hedi Slimane was a god who didn’t serve no bull(bleep) . . . But it takes a god to recognize another god. So when he told me you can come to my show, but you can’t come to see Phoebe [Philo] and you can’t come to see Riccardo [Tisci], that was odd. He tried to control me! He tried to tell me where I could go!”
He also gave Google’s Eric Schmidt a shout-out, screaming “Let’s pray he gives me a chance.”
