Reports are surfacing from Hip Hop Wired that Kanye West was not allowed entry to the Louis Vuitton show during Paris’ Fashion Week – quite ironic considering he is the self-professed “Louis Vuitton Donâ€.
He was also reportedly denied entry at the Balmain and Alexander McQueen shows.
Vibe is reporting that Kanye showed up uninvited, which resulted in him being denied entry. He has previously designed shoes for Nike and Louis Vuitton and has attended previous runway shows.
A representative for the Balmain show organizer KCD is quoted as saying, “Mr. West requested to attend and we let him know we would not be able to accommodate him. He chose to come to the door anyway and we kindly let him know we could not accommodate him.”
Kanye did reportedly attend the Valentino, Givenchy and Vivienne Westwood shows with no problems gaining entry.
