The full Piers Morgan x Kanye West interview isn’t out till Friday, but they did drop a snippet earlier in which Kanye West apologises for the comments he made about Jewish people last week (after initially refusing to do so), but not before calling Piers Morgan a ‘Karen’ and making other bizarre comments and analogies.
Watch below:
According to Piers, Kanye eventually walked out of the interview so I guess things got a lot worse from where this snippet leaves us. I suppose it’s never going to end well when two egomaniacs and serial interrupters try to have a serious conversation with one another, but at least Piers knows what it feels like now to never be allowed to finish a sentence.
As great as it is to see Kanye bulldoze Piers Morgan like this, it’s clear the guy is going through some kind of manic episode where he’s just saying things to be controversial and get a rise out of people. I don’t know that getting Piers Morgan to morally shame him and try to force an apology on TV is the best idea, but I guess your options are limited when the guy is off his meds and refusing therapy. I’m sure he’ll be back with another insane take before the week is up anyway.
Meanwhile, George Floyd’s family is suing Kanye for $250 million after he said Floyd died from a fentanyl overdose. Not great.
