Just when we thought we’d heard everything there is to know about Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s alleged divorce, another rumor has surfaced. When it comes to the bombshell claim about Jeffree Star and Kanye’s relationship, Kim reportedly wasted no time doing damage control, quickly laying the rumor to rest. Or at least, that’s what a report is saying.
As reported by Pop Crush, the reality starlet allegedly asked Jeffree Star to deny those recent rumors that he was hooking up with her husband. As noted by the publication, a source allegedly close to Kim told to The Sun that she’d “made it clear” that Star needed to “stop fueling the rumors with his social media posts.” With that said, he also seemed pretty shocked himself about the Kanye claims.
According to the source, however, Jeffree was asked “to set the record straight” and reportedly, that’s how his “Addressing The Kanye situation” YouTube video came to be. The source added, “He loved the attention and otherwise would’ve kept fanning the flames as long as he could have.” But of course, the video could’ve very well been Jeffree’s choice entirely.
In the lengthy video, Star said he woke up very confused that allegedly he and West were “sleeping together” and that was the reported reason Kim and Kanye were getting a divorce. As he set the record straight for his following, it seemed obvious that Jeffree was just as dumbfounded by the news as everyone else was, even if it’s not clear if Kim had anything to do with him posting it or not.
As we previously reported, the rumor of West and Star’s affair appears to have been concocted by a TikTok user named Ava Louise. Pop Crush notes that “the only basis for her claim was the fact that they both owned ranches in Wyoming.” And while an interesting coincidence, that factoid isn’t enough “evidence” to confirm or even really hint at an affair.
Although Ava Louise has since come out to admit she made up the rumor, it still allegedly was one rumor that Kim was lightning quick to shut down. Of course, we have to take this new report with a grain of salt.
Kim Kardashian has yet to address, confirm, or deny if she actually asked Jeffree Star to deny the Kanye West affair speculation or not. But as for the makeup mogul’s video about Kanye, consider those rumors fully denied.
