[quote]Don't take too long getting lunch for Kanye West – or he’ll fire you on the spot!
That’s exactly what happened to one of his trusty London drivers when he was sent out with the star’s private chef to pick up lunch from Selfridges Food Hall.
Kanye’s practically been living in London of late, where he’s working on new music and staying at a swanky five-star hotel.
Recently Kanye wanted food quick-smart – and he wasn’t taking any prisoners getting it...
My impeccable source in Camp Kanye tells me: “He employs 10 or so people. Three bodyguards, a number of drivers and his own personal chef Jennifer goes everywhere with him to cook whatever he wants on-site.
“Kanye decided he wanted a Selfridges lunch and sent the driver out. Obviously, he’s never heard of the Tube... and London suffers from horrendous traffic.
“The driver left at 1pm and didn’t make it back until 3pm when the head of security told him: ‘I’m sorry but I’m going to have to let you go. You took too long and Kanye got pissed off. He was really hungry.’”
Now said driver is considering taking Kanye to court.
Nothing we haven’t come to expect from the self-proclaimed “saviour of music”.
And it’s a case of step aside J-Lo and Mariah when diva Kanye comes to town – his riders when he performs have become increasingly amusing. Stories have surfaced in Australia that Kanye insists on organic-only food, Versace towels and that all man-made fibres are banned from being worn in his presence. The Gold Digger singer also lost his rag and had a fan ejected after a business card was thrown on-stage in Washington.
The numpty threatened to have a whole section of the audience booted out after claiming the act was life-threatening. He picked up the card and yelled: “Who’s card is this? We are risking our lives up here. You can’t go throwing shit that we are gonna slip on.”
Sounds like someone needs to come back down to Earth, Kanye.[/quote]
No one man should have all that power.

Stop trippin' he's tripping off the power
He's been waiting all night man, that's how long he's been on him.
Even though this is pretty silly, he hired him, they're his rules.
I bet it was like 10-20 minutes late.
Or only 3 minutes late like in Spiderman 2.

Kanye West is a complete cunt anyway, that's no secret.

He literally sounds like one of those mean celebrities on tv, except he really is a douche.

Hoo boy
I'd be mad if I asked for lunch and it didn't show up for 2 hours, but I wouldn't be a douche and let myself starve then fire the guy who was supposed to bring it to me without even asking what took so long.
Kanye is a douche anyways. Doesn't surprise me.
You would do the same
[QUOTE=Reader;34771137]You would do the same[/QUOTE]

I think taking 2 hours to get food in London can be considered quite fast.
Oh my god it's [I]Kanye?[/I]
Fuck! I've been reading and pronouncing it "Kayne" the entire time!
This is retarded, the driver couldn't get the job done in decent time, and so he got fired. Where's the silliness in this?
So what Kanye was strict and fired the driver? They have a contract that probably allows that. Plus, it's not like "Driving Kanye West" is a stable well remunerated job.
This is news?

If I ever acquire more money than I can possibly spend, I really hope I don't turn into an asshole. Sadly, that's a trend.
Unlike in America, we have laws here that prevent people doing things like this. He could take Kanye to court for unfair dismissal, or even conceivably constructive dismissal.

wrong thread.

Because we fucking care about our workers in this country, as in any EU country, and have regulations ensuring that you can't fire someone over a single, minor fuckup.
