A number of very famous figures are
shown lying together naked in Kanye West’s provocative new ‘Famous’
video, which premiered on Friday night, June 24 and, according to the
rapper, plenty of other celebrities told him ‘they want to be in the
bed’ when he showed them a preview of the visual.
‘It’s not in support or anti any of [the
people in the video],’ West, speaking to Vanity Fair, said of the
video, which was worked on with various collaborators and took three
months to complete. ‘It’s a comment on fame.’
‘Maybe in some alternative universe me and George Bush could have been friends,’ he commented. ‘I could have been his O.J. Simpson black friend on the golf course.’

Of the visual’s artistic inspiration,
West who, according to Thenetng findings, claims he was inspired by
American realist painter Vincent Desiderio – added: ‘Matthew Barney is my Jesus.’
Despite the nudity featured in his
‘Famous’ video, the rapper says he was ‘very careful with shots that had
[something] sexual to take them out.’
On Saturday morning, West joked, ‘Can
somebody sue me already’ along with the hashtag #I’llwait. He has since
deleted that tweet.
‘Famous,’ is a single off of West’s The
Life of Pablo album, which features a controversial reference to Taylor
Swift in its lyrics.
