Kanye celebrated the release of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy with a secret NYC concert yesterday. We've got the deets and pics when you read on...
Ye' took the stage right after midnight at the Bowery Ballroom in Manhattan. He performed the CD's intro 'Dark Fantasy' with Bon Iver's Justin Vernon and Teyana Taylor, who sang the chorus. Kanye went through several songs off the album including, 'Gorgeous', 'Power', and 'All of the Lights.'
Nicki Minaj joined Yeezy on the stage to perform 'Monster', although Jay-z didn't show. Rick Ross joined Kanye to perform 'Devil In A New Dress' and Pusha T hit the stage for 'Runaway'. Some celebs in the audience included Diddy, Selita Ebanks, and Lyor Cohen.
Kanye performed for over an hour and then talked to the audience. The Chicago rapper said,
"As you know, it's been an extremely hard year for me," he began. "But getting back to music, G.O.O.D. Fridays, and the album ... I never thought I'd say this, I wanna thank the magazines for perfect scores across the board. I always felt like I could do anything."
"To do 100,000 digitally," Ye continued, "And slated to do 600,000 the first week. I'm not here to do mother----ing politics. I'm here to make music. I'm not here to talk in no interviews; no one ask me any stupid f---ing questions."
SMH. That's our Kanye.
On a fashion note, whomever styled Willow Smith for the 2010 AMAs is accused of stealing...the design that is. Willow wore a funky yellow harness that Mother of London designer Mildred Von Hildegard says is a rip off of her original idea. She spoke to website Haute Macabre saying:
"I'm disappointed and saddened that this will negatively impact my business. My original design is now recognized in the mass media as someone else's work, and it's very hurtful on both...personal and professional levels. I hope this can be resolved, and I wish nothing but the best to Willow."
So who ripped off Mildred? No one seems to know because Willow worked with a new stylist that night and no one is fessing up. According to Mariel Haenn, Willow's sometimes-stylist, she tweeted,
"Just an fyi, we only dressed Rihanna last nite. I don't like when people try to credit me for work that's not mine."
She then emailed COILHOUSE Magazine:
"To be honest I have no idea who 'styled' her or the designer. Wish I did. I don't ask my clients who they used when I'm not available."
So check out the outfit for yourself.....
Willow wore the above look. And here's the Mother of London design:
