Controversial rapper to launch adult entertainment division of Yeezy brand, reportedly in talks with Stormy Daniels’s ex-husband
Kanye West, now legally known as “Ye,” has seemingly confirmed reports about his plans to establish a pornography studio under his Yeezy brand.
TMZ initially reported that West was discussing the launch of an adult entertainment division of Yeezy with Mike Moz, the ex-husband of Stormy Daniels.
In a tweet posted on Wednesday, West shared a video with the caption “Yeezy Porn is C***ing,” along with a link to Yeezy.com. However, the website currently does not host any pornographic content.
Representatives for West and Moz did not respond to The Independent’s requests for comment, but TMZ previously reported that West was determined to pursue the project, aiming for a potential launch this summer.
The Yeezy brand, originally a collaboration between West and Adidas, gained immense success with its line of sneakers and apparel. However, Adidas terminated its partnership with West in October 2022 following his series of antisemitic remarks in the media.
In a controversial incident, West played a porn film for Adidas executives during a meeting, raising eyebrows and drawing criticism.
Despite West’s past statements about the destructive impact of pornography addiction on his family, he seems to be moving forward with this new venture.
The announcement of West’s latest project comes amid ongoing legal battles related to his antisemitic behaviour. Former Yeezy employee Trevor Phillips has sued West, alleging discrimination, a hostile work environment, whistleblower retaliation, and unsafe working conditions.
West faces further allegations of suggesting extreme disciplinary measures, such as shaving students’ heads and locking them in cages, at his Donda Academy in California. Additionally, he claims Adidas is suing him for $250 million
