I’ve been going back and forth on whether I believe that Kanye West is truly desperate to reunite with Kim Kardashian. Kim was done long ago, and she hoped that Kanye would be done too, but she was still the one to file for divorce. For a while, Kanye seemed okay with all of it, and reportedly, they weren’t even speaking for months (they communicated through third parties). But Kim made the effort to work on their co-parenting situation and we’ve heard a lot of stories about how Kanye – or Ye – believes that he can win her back, or publicly plead with her to come back to him. How much of that is real and how much of it is just Ye being Ye? I don’t know. But he did it again last night at the Free Larry Hoover Benefit Concert.
Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, teamed up with his enemy-turned-collaborator Drake for the Free Larry Hoover Benefit Concert. With a combined 26 Grammy wins, the two rappers put their mics together for a one-night-only event Thursday at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
The concert, Ye’s first headlined show in five years, was orchestrated to spread awareness about prison reform and to support organizations including Ex-Cons for Community and Social Change, Hustle 2.0 and Uptown People’s Law Center, according to a release.
The concert continued with what fans consider the “old Kanye,” with Ye performing his early hits “Gold Digger” and “Jesus Walks,” but it was an altered version of “Runaway” that got cheers from the audience as the rapper seemingly dedicated to his ex, Kim Kardashian West, calling her by name.
“I need you to run right back baby — more specifically Kimberly,” Ye sang.
Kim was actually at the concert, with some or all of their kids. So she was there and she heard that. Which is why everyone is clowning on Pete Davidson this morning, because Pete is now with Kim. Would Kim ever go back to Kanye? That’s another question I can’t answer. Part of me thinks she might, just because of the kids and because maybe the divorce was some kind of “wake up call” for Kanye. But I doubt it. I think Pete’s position as BDE Boyfriend is safe for now.

I feel like she’s offering to give him x dollars for him to beg her in public like this, because most people can’t buy this kind of publicity.
I’ll admit that this marriage never made sense to me & I know little about Kim (never watched the show). But I think she’s done. After years of putting up with his nonsense, I doubt she would have filed if she saw a way of working things out.
I’ve seen this before, where one spouse gets to make a mess of the marriage & assumes the other will put up with it indefinitely. And then one day, the other spouse is just done & decides that anything is better than the current reality. And *then* the mess-maker suddenly begs for them to come back. It rarely works once someone has made up their mind.
Is Pete considered a home wrecker?
No. They only recently started dating and she’s divorcing Kanye. I hate the term homewrecker. If anybody is a homewrecker is this situation it would be Kanye. A third party can’t wreck a home, the person in the committed relationship having the affair or whatever would be the homewrecker.
EXACTLY THIS BRYN!!! I hate the term too and it’s mostly used in misogynistic slut shamey ways.
Get a grip Kanye. The dude said publicly that he was looking to divorce her since 2 years. How embarrassing. Now that she is publicly with someone else, he’s trying to get her back or something. You know, Kim might take him back becuase of the kids, but with the amount of fun she’s probably having with Pete, it’s going to feel like going back to prison. I give it 2 more years if she doesnt divorce now. It’s written in the stars this is not going to work out. Better to get done with it now and move on.
It’s a little creepy if you ask me. Putting public pressure on her is wrong IMO. If he really wanted her back he would work on his issues and get help and try to better himself for her and the kids sake – has he ever even mentioned the kids?
Why would she go back? She got what she wanted from him: babies and publicity. She gets more press with him begging her to come back plus her new fake relationship. She doesn’t need him anymore.
He’s singing her a song he wrote for another woman.
That’s a no.
Kim seems like the type of person that when her mind is made up thats it. If she had any sense she wouldn’t be going to his shows, especially with the kids. Divorce and separation is tough on kids, hearing this is definitely not good for them. Hes been screaming for years about wanting to divorce her, now all of a sudden they are meant to be back together. Kanye is totally bi polar or something and most likely not on medication.
Please don’t let him do a Robin Thicke album begging for her back. Neither she nor the innocent radio listeners of America need that.
The Creepiest part of that situation is he is engaged to a Paula Patton doppelgänger. Yikes everywhere.
😳 omg that is creepy
If this is all for publicity and they’re both in on it that’s one thing, but if Kim is truly done then she should keep herself and her kids well protected around him. Let’s not forget domestic violence is the most common killer of women. If this was any “regular” man we’d be talking about how creepy and concerning these stunts are. Kanye has a history of mental instability and an unwillingness to get help for it. What happens when he realizes he can’t actually “win” her back??
Eww. This reads as mental health issue = violence. He hasn’t been accused of violence toward women or anyone else so let’s not go there. He’s got enough shitty qualities that we’ve seen in display for us to talk about.
He has been accused of violence against a partner before by one of his exes, Alexis Phifer.
Kim wins again. She has two men giving her all the publicity she needs. Why would she want this to ever end? She couldn’t pay for this type of pr ! I feel bad for the kids seeing their dad beg publicly like this. Do any of these a$$holes think about their kids and what this is doing to them?
Translation: Travis’ Astroworld interview must have backfired because now Kris is trying to distract from the lawsuits with Kim, Pete, and Kayne drama.
Why is the press always falling for Kris’ cons? Just the other day, I pointed out how Kris manufactures drama between her daughters’ former and current partners. This is just another example of how Kris and her daughters will exploit everything(this was supposed to be about prison reform and it got turned into a personal concert for Kim) and anyone (men with mental illnesses and drug addictions).The press really needs to do better.
If Kim was done with Kayne a long time ago, she wouldn’t have added 2 more children to the family, leaked stories about how she has moved on and is being pursued by a wide variety of men every time Kayne is papped with a new muse(Based on the type of stories that Kim and Kris were leaking to the press about Kayne and his muses, Kim was always in some form of contact with him.) , kept his last name, attach herself to whatever project he is promoting at the time, exploit his mental episodes(Kayne’s public contact with Kim and her family is low when he isn’t in a manic episode and increases when he is having one) , and leak stories about how Kayne just won’t move on even though it’s clear that she is the one initiating these reunions with him because she recognizes that he in the middle of manic episode and much more easier to manipulate(it started with the speech that she gave at PCA).
Of course Kim was there, she and her family have to stay attached to Kanye because the businesses that Kris has in their names aren’t as successful as they claim; Kris is still having trouble finding someone to date Kim even after spinning the Pete and Kim “romance” in the press; Kanye opens doors for them that they can’t access on their own; and Kris needs to distract from Travis interview and lawsuits.
I assumed that Kris was leaking these “Kayne wants Kim back” stories to distract from Travis’ interview and Astroworld lawsuits, but it just broke that Kayne’s publicist was involved in the harassment of Ruby Freeman. Trump used twitter to falsely accuse Ruby and her daughter of election fraud and it lead to Trump supporters stalking, threatening, and harassing Ruby and her family. She recently filed a lawsuit against Trump.
The the concert wasn’t really about prison reform, it was just a way for Drake to distract from the Astroworld lawsuits and Kayne to distract from what his publicist did to Ruby.
Yup, Travis and Astroworld continue to be a hot f-ing mess. Let us not forget the video of the ambulance trying to get through the crowd that Kylie posted because she’s that DUMB. And it’s all about getting likes and followers on social media. This family makes me so sick.
Yeah run kim…. Run far away. Keep running. He’s so exhausting
These two are tiresome. I feel sorry for their kids having to sit in the front row of the sh**show that is their parents.
Pure poetry Mel.
Two megalomaniacs do not a well couple make.
This relationship has three. Not good odds.
Kanye is just going to get sicker so unless Kim wants to be a full time caregiver she needs to finalize the end of their relationship. Neither one are exactly mentally stable but at least Kim puts on a more convincing show. Their poor kids are the real losers.
