So this is why Kanye West wasn’t at the Met Gala

Yikes.

The Met Gala took place in New York on Monday night and all the A-list celebrities were there. However, Kanye West was nowhere to be seen, even though his wife Kim and her sisters were there.

According to The Sun, Kanye didn’t go because he’s still angry over the pictures of Kim on holidays in Mexico with her sister Kourtney.

Last week the internet went into a frenzy after the pictures surfaced, which showed Kim with cellulite on her bum. Shock horror, a woman having cellulite.

Anyway, media all around the world went to town on the photos, sharing every angle possible.

Now it seems that Kanye is more annoyed with Kim and Kourtney than anyone else over the whole thing. A source said:

“Kanye has helped turned Kim into a fashion icon and he feels those pictures with Kourtney have made her look cheap, damaging her brand.

He’s angry with Kourtney for seemingly leading her on, as she clearly revelled in turning their session into a photoshoot.

Their behaviour completely detracted from Kim’s current standing in the industry.”

Speaking about how he snubbed the Met Gala the source added:

“It’s a huge deal not to attend. Turning down an invite means he might not be asked back again.

It also risks the wrath of Anna Wintour.

But after the year he’s had, given his breakdown after the Paris robbery and his anger over Kim’s snaps, he just didn’t feel attending the right thing to do.”
