Kanye West denies being kicked out of Super Bowl

-

Kanye West has professed that he’s been “more helpful” to Taylor Swift’s career “than harmful”.

After it was claimed the Cruel Summer hitmaker, 34, allegedly had the controvers­ial rapper thrown out of the Super Bowl VIII in Las Vegas last Sunday, the Good Morning star has denied this to be true and insisted he and his wife, Bianca Censori, 29, simply went to a different part of the Allegiant Stadium to catch up with their friends.

The 46-year-old music star — who has feuded with the pop superstar in the past — reflected on being cancelled and dropped from brand deals after he made a series of anti-Semitic remarks.

He wrote in a lengthy Instagram post: “Last year was incredibly challengin­g for me, my wife, my children, friends and family.

“I’ve been banned from hotels, kicked out of companies, and even not allowed to eat in some restaurant­s.”

He then turned his attention to the Super Bowl and claimed he was on Taylor’s “side” when she got into a row with Scooter Braun over the rights to her masters.

He went on: “Remember I was on Taylor’s side when Scooter bought her masters behind her back.

“She and Beyoncé are big inspiratio­ns to all musicians, we always say how both sell out tours and movies.

“Also, I’m sure I’ve been far more helpful to Taylor Swift’s career than harmful.

“To all Taylor Swift fans, I am not your enemy; uuum i’m not your friend either, though lol (sic).”

He added: “Also, I didn’t get kicked out of the Super Bowl. We left our seats to go to YG’s box and see different friends.

My wife had never been to a Super Bowl, so I wanted to walk around and have a nice time, we had such a fun day.”

Former NFL player Brandon Marshall made the claim on February 12 on his Paper Route podcast.

He said: “So Kanye West pulls up to the Super Bowl. Kanye West buys a ticket right in front of Katy Perry’s booth, so any time they are gonna be showing Katy Perry, Kanye’s face was going to be there - he had a mask on with his logo on the mask.

He then clarified that he meant Taylor, adding: “So Taylor Swift gets [annoyed] and she makes a call or two — everybody is involved — [and] he gets kicked out the stadium.” Taylor was in the VIP box cheering on her Kansas City Chiefs tight end boyfriend, Travis Kelce, 34, whose team beat the San Francisco 49ers at the sporting spectacle.
