Kanye West had the unmitigated gall to wear a ‘White Lives Matter’ t-shurt during his YZY SZN 9 fashion show in Paris on Monday.
via Complex:
Ye, who was also wearing his pair of previously-headlined diamond-studded flip-flops, wore the shirt early into the livestream experience. At the time of this writing, the full design of the t-shirt in question had not been disclosed. However, several models in the presentation were also seen wearing variations of the shirt.
During his opening remarks on Monday, Ye touched on a variety of topics, including how certain outlets focused on the delayed start time of his prior events when such delays were (in Ye’s words) merely a side effect of trying to “present the best idea.”
As for the “White Lives Matter” design, the phrase itself, of course, is often associated with various far-right ideologies and is frequently used (as is “All Lives Matter,” et al.) among fervent Trump supporters. In the past, Ye has expressed support for Trump and related assertions.
Yuck.
