Kim Kardashian Thinks Kanye' Trevor Noah Post Was 'Unacceptable'
Kim Kardashian responded to Kanye West's "unacceptable" Trevor Noah post and The Kardashians star thinks the Grammys host is owed an apology. Kanye has been ousted from the Grammys after he was slated to perform, but with Trevor Noah serving as this year's host, producers thought it would be best to keep Kanye far away from the televised event. Kanye's recent social media behavior has only heightened concerns about how he will behave during major industry events.
Kanye has eased up on his erratic posting on Instagram after he was banned from posting on the social network for 24 hours. The ban came after Kanye went on a tirade blasting Kim's boyfriend Pete Davidson and other comedians who spoke on Kanye's "harassing" behavior against Kim. Among the comedians on Kanye's hit list are Pete, DL Hughley, and Daily Show host Trevor Noah. Hughley and Noah became new targets after speaking in defense of Kim and against Kanye's behavior since she started dating Pete. Many have expressed concern about Kim's safety because of Kanye's disturbing online behavior.
When responding to Noah, Kanye sent out an insensitive post that used a racial slur against the South African late-night talk show host. Insiders say Kim was also offended by the post and how Kanye is allowing his bitterness over her dating Pete to affect his legacy. “Kim only wants for Kanye to leave Pete alone and not go after him on Instagram," a source told Hollywood Life. When it comes to Kanye's racist post about Noah, "Kim also believes that Kanye owes Trevor an apology because his remarks directed at Trevor were unacceptable," the insider said. Kim watched Noah's comments on her divorce drama and appreciated the comedian's support. "She found what Trevor said on her behalf to be so heartfelt and she thinks that he expressed her sentiments perfectly," the source added.
On the Daily Show, Noah opened up about his past experience with domestic violence and how it impacted his family. Noah expressed his concern with Kanye's behavior in wake of his divorce and believes more people should also be alarmed. After catching wind of Noah's support for Kim, Kanye attacked him in a post that used a racial slur. As a result of Kanye's recent Instagram activity, the rapper was barred from performing at the upcoming Grammys. A rep for the Yeezy founder said it was Kanye's “concerning online behavior,” that got him pulled from the Grammys, Variety reports.
Kim has been trying to move on with her life after being declared legally single. However, Kanye has not made it easy. Their recent joint custody issues are what led to Kanye taking to Instagram last weekend to blast Kim. It resulted in a heated text message exchange between Kanye and Pete and a series of more erratic Instagram posts. Kim is set to open up about her divorce and new romance with Pete when The Kardashians premieres next month.
