The incident unfolded on Monday when Kanye West was en route to attend the Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony honoring R&B singer, Charlie Wilson.
A female photographer from TMZ approached the rapper, posing a question that touched a nerve: “People want to know if Bianca has her free will. Some say you are controlling her.”
Clearly agitated by the question, Kanye West snatched the phone from the photographer, deeming the question “disrespectful.”
The rapper launched into a three-minute rant toward the reporter, asking her, “Are you crazy?”
He accused the paparazzo of feeling entitled due to her race and insisted on receiving the same respect he is expected to provide.
Kanye West, “You think because you’re a white woman, you can walk up on me like that and ask me some dumbass s**t like that asking me about my wife, if she has free will? Are you crazy?”
“You got free will, or you work for the devil?” West asked the reporter, demanding she tell him her full name and address.
“You asked me does my wife has free will. Was that a d*mb-a, disrespectful question to come to ask a grown-a superhero?”
Despite the reporter’s attempts to apologize, Kanye West persisted, questioning the appropriateness of delving into celebrities’ private lives.
“Is that your job to go up to every celebrity and ask them some dumb ass shit about their wife?” the rapper asked.
“Answer the question. I am supposed to answer your questions, answer my questions.”
The altercation concluded with Kanye West asking about the reporter’s earnings and offering to double her pay if she would leave him alone.
