Kanye West may not be able to win Kim Kardashian back despite his obsessive efforts, so he will have to make do with a look a-like version.
The “Donda 2” rapper is turning heads with Instagram model Chaney Jones, who bears a striking resemblance to Kim.
Chaney began popping up on Kanye’s radar in early February after she attended his “Donda 2” album listening party at Nobu in Malibu, CA.

Kendall Jenner and Travis Scott were also in attendance that same night.
The Blast previously reported on Ye’s valiant social media efforts to try and win his family back, but it seems he’s cutting his losses and moving on from both Kim and Julia Fox with Chaney.
Kanye and Fox broke things off last month after almost two months of dating.
Chaney seemed to hint at her budding romance with Kanye by posting a photo of them together on Monday, February 28. She topped off the photo with a black heart emoji.
Kanye & Chaney Are Just Having Fun. It’s Nothing Serious!
However, TMZ reported that the two are not “officially official,” not yet at least.
Sources close to Ye and Chaney told the outlet they’ve been together for a couple of weeks and have been having fun.
Kanye is reportedly attracted to the social media model due to her physical similarities to Kim.
It was Chaney who made the first move and slid into the rapper’s DMs and things took off from there.
Kanye sources told the outlet that he isn’t looking for anything serious right now.
Chaney Slid Into Ye’s DMs
After all, he is tied up in a bitter divorce from Kim and continues to deny her petitions to speed up their divorce.
Last week, The Blast reported on the rap star’s latest attempt to halt the divorce process.
On February 24, we reported that his ex continued to push for her divorce from him.
Kim petitioned for them to be legally separated, and Kanye objected to her petition. Kim continued to push by citing “emotional distress” in new documents, and Kanye objected that too!
Kanye’s lawyers filed a motion to reject Kim’s petition to be declared legally single before their property and custody disputes could be resolved. Kim first asked the judge to declare her single back in December, even while Kanye made it known publicly that he was still trying to work things out.
Kanye’s lawyers are arguing that declaring Kim single may complicate the custody and property issues that the couple is currently facing. Kanye’s lawyers claim that if she remarries, she may move some of their shared assets to a personal account.
His attorneys say that there are three conditions that Kim would have to meet in order to be declared single.
First, if either of them dies, he wants to make sure any money that might be owing to either gets reimbursed. Second, Kanye wants to stop Kim from transferring assets out of any trust they created. Third, Kanye is requesting that Kim waive their marital privilege pending a final custody decision to ensure that any communication between them can be included as part of court records.
Kanye also added that if Kim does remarry, any spousal privileges between her and her new husband should be waived. However, Kim rejected all of these conditions.
In a recent update to the divorce drama, the SKIMS founder filed a new motion citing “emotional distress” as a reason for her to be legally declared single. In the documents, Kim writes, “I very much desire to be divorced.” She has said that her “emotional distress” results from the fact that she had asked Kanye to keep their divorce private, which is something that he has not done. Kanye has gone so far as to post private text messages between the pair on Instagram, although all of these text messages and private exchanges have all been deleted.
Kim Says Kanye’s Caused Her Emotional Distress
Although they have been deleted, they have all been well-documented and reported on by the Internet. Kim has cited these social media rants as a reason why they need to finalize the divorce independently. In the documents, Kim states, “Kanye has been putting a lot of misinformation regarding our private matters and co-parenting on social media which has created emotional distress.”
Their messy divorce is far from over and we will continue to keep you updated as Kanye and Kim pop off on social media!
