Kanye West: I Lied About My Wedding Photo!

Just yesterday, Kanye West stated that he spent his honeymoon Photoshopping wedding pictures . As utterly insane as that sounds, it’s not even the craziest part of the story: Kanye claimed that he had booked famed photographer Annie Leibovitz to shoot the first photos of him and Kim as man and wife, but Leibovitz (who’s shot The Beatles, Bob Dylan and Queen Elizabeth II in the past) backed out because she was “afraid of celebrity.” Oh, Kanye. You wacky compulsive liar, you. So what really happened? Well, it turns out Leibovitz pretty much had no interest in working for Kimye to begin with: Leibovitz’ publicists partnered up with Yeezy’s team to issue a joint statement and they managed to avoid directly addressing the fact that Kanye is a delusional psychopath: “Annie Leibovitz is not known to photograph weddings,” reads the statement. “But Kanye dreams big. He loves and respects Annie as a true artist and he wanted to bring her eye for beauty to the imagery of the wedding.” It goes on to say that Kanye was simply “dreaming out loud” and “referencing Annie as an example of how to merge culture and tech.” In other words, Kanye lied, and when he found out it got back to Annie, he had his people put a spin on it, and she was flattered enough ny his BS to agree to a joint statement. Well-played, ‘Ye. Yeezy may have never had a chance with Leibovitz, but it would’ve been good to have a renowned photographer on hand to capture the weirdness of the fact that Kanye’s groomsmen are all dating Kardashian lookalikes .  Kim Kardashian Wedding Photos 1.

Michelle Obama Death Threat By D.C. Police Officer Prompts Secret Service Investigation

A D.C. police officer has been taken off a motorcycle escort for White House officials after he allegedly threatened to shoot First Lady Michelle Obama. Not only that, the officer “then used his phone to retrieve a picture of the firearm he said he would use,” according to a Washington Post report. The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating and the Secret Service has been told of the alleged Michelle Obama threat, the Post says. The alleged comment came Wednesday as officers from the Special Operations Division discussed threats against President Barack Obama. It was not immediately clear where the alleged conversation took place or exactly how many officers were taking part in the conversation. During that conversation,the officer allegedly said he would shoot the First Lady , then used his phone to show the firearm he said he would use. It was not immediately clear what type of firearm was shown. An officer overheard the alleged threat and reported it to a police lieutenant at the Division, who immediately notified superiors, the officials said. The officer has been moved to administrative duty as the incident is being investigated, but the D.C. police warned against a rush to judgment. MPD Chief Cathy Lanier told WRC-TV/NBC4: “There is conflicting information about what the officer said. … Internal Affairs will get to the bottom of it.” D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray said he hoped that the allegations turned out to be false, noting the current investigations by the MPD and Secret Service. “There’s no room for jokes or frivolity when you’re dealing with the first family,” Gray said, adding that “additional officers may be disciplined.” [Photo: WENN.com]
