In the picture, which the site claims they received Friday morning, West is shown sitting on what appears to be a couch or chair, shirtless and wearing sunglasses and a chain necklace. The bottom half of the uncensored photo, posted as a separate image, reveals West wearing black boxer-briefs with his penis exposed, says the New York Daily News.
According to RadarOnline.com the “self-snapped” photos were “sent to a number of women, and are now for sale and being shopped to various media outlets.”
A source told the site, “These pics have been floating around since he hit so many girls up on MySpace. He probably sent them to many, many women.”
Some have speculated that Kanye, whose album is due to drop late November, was trying to whip up some pre-launch dust in order to deluge the airwaves with his brand. But this is most likely the case of Kanye flossing his endowment to a fling he was messing with. And when the relationship ended, probably to the woman’s great chagrin, she used this photo to humiliate Kanye in retaliation for feeling scorned.
Our inside source informed us that members of Kanye’s team were attempted to file a cease and desist order with mediatakeout.com.
The original artwork for Kanye’s upcoming album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy was allegedly banned, Kanye claims, for featuring a naked woman, with bird-like features, in a sexual position with a male, possibly a visual representation of West himself.
“They don’t want me chilling on the couch with my phoenix!” Kanye complained on Twitter. Later, Kanye gave a tongue-in-cheek mea culpa, tweeting, “I’m deeply sorry if I haven’t offended everybody.” — terry shropshire
