Former love interest Julia Fox has blasted Kanye West for his treatment of her in the aftermath of the controversial superstar’s divorce from ex-wife Kim Kardashian in 2021. Fox told The Los Angeles Times in a new interview that she felt Ye exploited her to spite Kardashian throughout their months-long romance. “I truly grasp him on a visceral level,” she told me. “I thought I’d be helping a vulnerable situation in the end, but I quickly realised I was being weaponized.” “All I felt like was his little puppet.” Kanye West and Julia Fox’s brief romance started in January 2022 but ended the following month. Fox spoke up about the breakup after The Daily Mail reported that she left Los Angeles

On the music front, the “Jesus Walks” rapper, whose public image is currently suffering as a result of a slew of antisemitic & anti-BLM remarks in 2022, is reportedly preparing a massive show in Reggio Emilia, Italy, next week that will entertain more than 80,000 people. West has supposedly deployed all of the necessary employees to create a stage in preparation for the Friday the 13th event, according to the Italian website ReggiOnline, which bills itself as the “official voice” of the northern Italian city. The outlet underlines, however, that while the ‘Through the Wire’ rapper has despatched the necessary field employees to get the party started, he has not gotten the necessary authorizations required by the Italian governing bodies to officially begin the event on that day and time.
Ex Julia Fox Claims Kanye West ‘Weaponized’ Her Against Kim Kardashian
Kanye West “weaponized” Julia Fox throughout their relationship after his separation from Kim Kardashian, according to Julia Fox. “I really understood him on a visceral level,” the model recently stated to the Los Angeles Times, claiming that she “believed ultimately I’d be helping a precarious situation,” referring to his tumultuous divorce from Skims founder. “But I found out swiftly that I was being weaponized,” she said. “I just felt like his little puppet.” Fox, who said in her new biography, “Down the Drain,” that she “went lightly” in chronicling her six-week relationship with the “Gold Digger” rapper, said she did not sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) during their brief courtship. “On principle, I’m not signing an f-king NDA.” “I’ve never done it, and I never will,” she admitted, before quickly adding, “unless it’s a professional opportunity.” Fox, 33, and West, 46, were first seen together in Miami on New Year’s Eve 2021, 10 months after Kardashian, 42, filed for divorce from the Yeezy founder. The actress from “Uncut Gems” talked out about her romance with Ye the following month, informing Interview magazine that his energy was “fun to be around.”
The couple then made their red carpet debut in matching denim ensembles at the Kenzo Fall/Winter 2022/2023 design show at Paris Design Week. Ye assisted Fox in celebrating her 32nd birthday in February 2022 at the New York City restaurant Lucien, where he gave the actress — and five of her pals — Hermés Birkin bags. The couple had called it quits by the end of the month. “Julia & Kanye stay good friends and collaborators, but they are no longer together,” her spokesman stated at the time to Page Six. Later, the “No Sudden Move” star revealed that she was simply seeing the Grammy winner to “get him off Kim’s case.” “Like, ‘Maybe I could divert him, like, just get him to like me,'” she stated in a TikTok video from November 2022. “And I knew if anyone can do it, it’s me since when I put my mind to something, I do it,” Fox admitted in September 2023 that she and West did not have sex throughout their relationship. West has already moved on with his “wife,” Bianca Censori, whom he married in January in a non-legally binding ceremony.
