Kanye West, a musician and fashion designer, entered Skechers’ corporate offices in Los Angeles on Wednesday “unannounced and without invitation,” and executives escorted him out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The footwear company stated in a statement following the event that it “had no intention of collaborating with West” and that the musician, who is now known as Ye, was involved in “unauthorized filming.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After a “short dialogue,” “he and his companions” were expelled from the building, the business stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The remarks from Skechers came a day after Adidas discontinued their lengthy partnership with Ye as a result of a slew of antisemitic remarks Ye made in recent weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Skechers stated, “We do not allow antisemitism or any other type of hate speech and we deplore his recent inflammatory statements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ye has been circulating antisemitic conspiracies on social media and in interviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additionally, he caused controversy earlier this month by displaying T-shirts at Paris Fashion Week with the slogan “White Lives Matter,” which is connected to white nationalists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ye has gotten more and more alone as many brands turn away from him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gap is taking urgent action to remove Yeezy Gap goods from its shops and shut down YeezyGap.com after terminating its partnership with Ye in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ye is supposedly no longer a billionaire due to the breakup of his lucrative Adidas contract and the breakup of Balenciaga’s relationship with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He is reportedly no longer represented by his longstanding talent agency CAA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following this week’s antisemitic occurrences in Los Angeles, some of which clearly referred to Ye’s remarks on Jews, citizens in California joined the chorus of those denouncing Ye’s behavior.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
