KANYE WEST PLANS TO INTERN IN THE FASHION WORLD
According to the New York Times, Mr. West has his sights on joining the likes of Louis Vuitton or Raf Simons, with an internship as his starting point. As odd as it would be to see a multi-platinum artist begin another career from the bottom, it was equally astounding when West contacted Simons himself.
“I was blown away from the planet when he told me,” the 40-year old Belgian designer told the Times. In disbelief, Simons continued, “I know he’s very serious about this — I don’t take it as a joke — but how can I imagine him being my intern? It’s a very extreme situation.” Simons, who has gained notoriety as one of fashions’ current leading innovators, draws his inspiration significantly from youth culture.
While he awaits an answer, 'Ye still has other ventures to keep him busy including his own Pastelle line, which is three years in the making and counting.

OJ SIMPSON SENTENCED TO AT LEAST 15 YEARS
In case you didn't hear the news, OJ Simpson was sentenced to at least 15 years in prison yesterday.
The 61-year-old football Hall of Famer stood shackled and stone-faced when the Judge sentenced him to at least 15 years in prison for a hotel armed robbery.
Simpson and co-defendant Clarence ‘C.J.’ Stewart were sentenced on 12 charges, including felony kidnapping, armed robbery and conspiracy related to a 2007 confrontation with sports memorabilia dealers in a Las Vegas hotel.
The judge said several times that her sentence in the Las Vegas case had nothing to do with Simpson’s 1994 acquittal in the slaying of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman. And she rejected his apology stating, “It was much more than stupidity.”
Guess he should have had this guy representing him...
