Add Kanye West to the ever growing list of men who entered the Kardashian women’s world and promptly crashed and burned. West, like so many before him, has officially melted down and is reportedly receiving treatment in hospital just a day after cancelling his entire Life of Saint Pablo tour.

The rapper was transported to a undisclosed Los Angeles hospital after police responded to calls for a welfare check on Monday afternoon. So far, docs will only say the Fade artist is getting treatment for sleep deprivation and exhaustion, which may be code for drug abuse.

Kim Kardashian West cancelled an appearance at the Angel Ball in New York City this week, which would have been her first public appearance since falling victim to a robbery in Paris. Continue reading →

LIFE OF WACKO? Kanye West HOSPITALIZED After Bizarre Series Of Rants & Canceling Tour

November 21, 2016 by "You Heard It First!" On THECOUNT.COM - Since 2005

Sources say Kanye West was transported to a LA hospital and is currently “under observation” late Monday after a bizarre series of rants and the abrupt cancellation of his national tour.

The hospital stay followed a week of strange incidents during which the rapper publicly threw shade at Beyoncé and Jay Z and retroactively endorsed President-elect Donald Trump while admitting that he didn’t bother to vote.

A source familiar with the case said Los Angeles police responded to a medical welfare call about 1:20 p.m. (4:20 p.m. ET). No criminal activity was involved; the decision to hospitalize West was for his own health and safety, the sources said. West’s concert promoter, Live Nation, said earlier in the day that the remaining dates of his Saint Pablo Tour had been called off. No reason was given. The cancellation of West’s tour comes on the heels of a rough week for the rapper, who has made controversial statements and feuds with fellow celebrities a centerpiece of his art and persona.
