Kanye's Controversial T-Shirt Plan

Kanye West, the rapper known for his outspoken nature, has been accused of trying to spread harmful rumors through his fashion line. A former Yeezy designer, Pierre Louis Auvray, shared a troubling story. He claimed that West wanted to make T-shirts with false statements about Pete Davidson. This all happened while Davidson was dating Kim Kardashian. The shirts had nasty messages like "Pete Davidson has AIDS. " Auvray worked at Yeezy from 2019 to 2021. He said that West was at SoHo House in Austin, Texas, when he went on a rant about different groups of people. He made hurtful comments about Jewish people and Davidson. Auvray said West wanted to use his fashion brand to keep spreading these lies. He was asked to make long-sleeved shirts with disturbing messages. He refused to do it. Auvray shared screenshots of his chat with West's general manager, Laurence Chandler. The messages showed the proposed shirt designs. A source close to Davidson called the shirts "despicable. " West started spreading these rumors in 2022. He claimed that Davidson had a serious disease, was a drug user, and was gay. These rumors started after Davidson began dating Kardashian in November 2021. It was less than a year after she filed for divorce from West. Davidson's friends said the rumors were "nonsense. " They also said that Davidson was ignoring the hate out of respect for Kim. In April 2022, Davidson joked about West's claims during a standup show. He said, "I'm not going to address it. It's not worth it. " This shows that Davidson is handling the situation with humor and respect. It is important to remember that spreading false rumors can cause real harm.
