• Kim Kardashian: Kanye West Once Ordered Chinese Food From Jail [WATCH]

    In a recent episode of the reality series Keeping Up The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian shares a pretty ridiculous story about her husband Kanye West and his trip to jail a few years ago. Back in 2008, the "Bound 2" rapper spent a day in jail after destroying a paparazzo's camera, but when he was given his customary phone call, he apparently used it not to call his lawyer, but to order take-out from a Beverly Hills Chinese restaurant called Mr. Chows. The story ends before we find out if Mr. Chows actually ended up delivering to West's jail cell, but I'm just going to go ahead and assume that yes, they did, because that's a hilarious image to me.

  • Kanye West Wins 'Coinye' Trademark Infringement Lawsuit

    You may remember that back in January, a new form of digital currency was launched called "Coinye West," which was named, of course, for rapper Kanye West, and featured a cartoon representation of his likeness. Though one would assume that having his name and face plastered on as many products as possible would be Yeezy's ultimate life goal, the "Bound 2" rapper actually wasn't too thrilled about it, so much so that he filed a trademark-infringement lawsuit against the company pretty much immediately. Radio.com now reports that on July 22, the lawsuit had been settled in West's favor by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
