OMG! KANYE A FASHION DESIGNER?
Hip-Hop superstar Kanye West has reportedly publicized plans to take a hiatus from music and concentrate on delving into fashion as an intern.
According to the New York Times, the mega producer is looking to branch out into style and clothing design by contributing his services gratis at Raf Simons.
“I was blown away from the planet when he told me,” Simons told the New York Times. “I know he’s very serious about this — I don’t take it as a joke — but how can I imagine him being my intern? It’s a very extreme situation.”
While no authorized word or statement from West has been released yet, the rapper has only implied his intent of following a more focused course to the fashion world.
BEYONCE’S ELLE COVER

Check out these snippets from her interview:
On marriage to Jay-Z: It’s a power struggle. But if I didn’t respect someone and they didn’t have that strength, then I would be bored. I wouldn’t be attracted to them.”
On having kids: I’m terrified of having a child. “No way! I’m terrified of delivering a child because I saw my nephew being born. That traumatized me. I’m only 27. I’ve got time”
How her latest role, playing Etta James in “Cadillac Records,” took an emotional toll on her personal life: “My mom had to leave the set. I don’t normally curse. Maybe twice a year. I have to be really livid. Somebody saying things or scheduling something where I’m not in control. It was freeing, but it was also the most emotionally draining time of my life. Every day I would come home; my eyes would be completely swollen”
