Kim Kardashian TRAPPED In Divorce Battle Due To Kanye West's Anti-Semitism

Kim Kardashian may never, ever be completely divorced from Kanye West.
The rapper’s month-long anti-Semitic tirade continues and NO ONE in a position of power wants to be linked to him.
In a (not so) shocking turn of events, the Yeezy fashion designer’s newest legal team has said “NOPE, we are not representing Kanye anymore.”
Kanye's Newest Divorce Lawyers Call It Quits With Him
Less than a month after hiring big brass attorneys in both Los Angeles and New York City, the rapper is once again flying solo.
Yes, his divorce lawyers have called it quits with Kanye.
In late September, the Yeezy designer hired not one but two heavy-hitting divorce lawyers.
Ye hired Melinda Gates’ divorce attorney, Robert Stephan Cohen, of Cohen Clair Lans Greifer Thorpe & Rottenstreich LLP, per reports.
A source revealed to Page Six, “The firm is no longer representing Kanye West.”
It Looks Like Kim Will Never Get Away From Kanye
TMZ reports the “Yeezy” designer has enlisted the legal guidance of Nicholas A. Salick of Salick Family Law Group, APLC in California.
It’s unclear if his west coast divorce lawyers are still representing him or not.
Kim filed for divorce in February 2021 and while the former couple are partially divorced, they still are fighting on the custody of their four children.
In addition to losing his legal team, Kanye has been cut off by Gap, Vogue, Balenciaga, his talent agency CAA, Camille Vasquez, and most recently…Adidas.
No One Wants To Be Associated With Kanye West
After much public outcry from celebrities and social media, the sporting goods company has FINALLY ended their business relationship with Kanye.
In a statement released on Tuesday, October 25, the German company said, "Adidas does not tolerate antisemitism and any other sort of hate speech," the company said. "Ye's recent comments and actions have been unacceptable, hateful and dangerous, and they violate the company's values of diversity and inclusion, mutual respect and fairness."
“After a thorough review,” Adidas terminated its partnership with Kanye, and promised to end production of Yeezy-branded products and stop all payments to Kanye and his companies.
Interestingly enough, Netflix is refusing to take down his “Jeen-Yuhs” documentary.
The streaming giant has decided to keep the three-part docu-series up given they are not in direct business with the rapper and the film didn’t contain any anti-Semitic rhetoric.
Netflix also made it a point to note they haven’t taken down any other films involving high-profile stars that have gotten into hot water.
The Blast recently reported on MRC Studios shelving their documentary about the rapper’s life.
MRC studio executives Modi Wiczyk, Asif Satchu and Scott Tenley announced the doco has been shelved in a memo on Monday, October 24th.
“This morning, after discussion with our filmmakers and distribution partners, we made the decision not to proceed with any distribution for our recently completed documentary about Kanye West. We cannot support any content that amplifies his platform,” they wrote. “Kanye is a producer and sampler of music. Last week he sampled and remixed a classic tune that has charted for over 3,000 years — the lie that Jews are evil and conspire to control the world for their own gain.”
The statement continued, “The silence from leaders and corporations when it comes to Kanye or antisemitism in general is dismaying but not surprising. What is new and sad, is the fear Jews have about speaking out in their own defense.”
