Kanye West Speaks Out

Kanye speaks out in reference to 50 cent (who is coming out with a men's beauty line) and others who claim he is gay because of his recent involvement with fashion. Fashion does not imply homosexual, and we shouldn't limit fashion to one group of people. Like I always say, if its a crime for a straight man to have a shoe closet and invites to Fashion Week, then SUE ME! Well, don't sue me, but you know what I mean...

....Did you catch the part that 50 cent is calling Kanye gay, yet he is creating a men's care line with moisturizers, and hair care products? The irony.. Anyways, here is Kanye's response:

Your dress don’t give away whether or not you like a man. Think about actors that straight dress up like a woman or something like that. People wanna label me and throw that on me all the time, but I’m so secure with my manhood. And that’s the reason why I can go to Paris, why I can have conversations with people who are blatantly gay. ‘Cause I used to be scared to talk to a gay person. It’s designers that’s scared of people in hip-hop. And in hip hop, there’s people — and let’s not even say scared like homophobic — but they’re scared of the way people gonna look at them. If you see a person be like, “I don’t wanna stand next to Marc Jacobs ’cause I don’t want that to bear on me because I’m just so cool.” One of the reasons why, the perspective I come from with my raps and my songs, the reason why can’t nobody dis me — no gangsta rapper, nobody can really dis me is ’cause it’s so authentic.And you know what? That’s when I was ignorant to gays. ‘Cause there’s a lot of gay people who don’t dress good at all. There’s a lot of gay people that I dress way better than.

--- I second his last sentence....
