Watch: Kanye West Auditions for ‘American Idol’ [Full Video]

Published 10 years ago

A few months ago, Kanye West surprised American Idol judges by showing up to the audition room.

Like a normal contestant, the rapper introduced himself and began to rap verses of his own “Gold Digger” — which just so happens to name drop Idol jude Jennifer Lopez.

We’ve seen clips of the audition floating around the Internet, but now the full audition is available to watch.

Check out ‘Ye’s audition below.
