Kanye West Takes A Break: Pastelle / LV Internship

kanye pastelle


Kanye West who is no stranger to making headlines with shocking announcements has just dropped another bomb. West has decided to take a break from music and focus on fashion and more interestingly, he has decided to do it by becoming an intern.

The Stronger hitmaker - who last month said he "will go down as the voice of this generation" - is looking to diversify his portfolio by expanding his knowledge of style and clothing design by offering his free services at a fashion house - preferably Louis Vuitton or Raf Simons.

"I was blown away from the planet when he told me," Simons told the New York Times. "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."

Although Kanye, 31, is yet to confirm the reports, the star has hinted at his intention of pursuing a more focused path in the fashion world.

"I want to and will be the real thing," he previously wrote in a blog entry. "I will not just be a 'celebrity designer.'"

Now, THIS is a good premise for a reality TV show. Can someone please make this happen?!
