Some get married - Eli Manning and Abby McGrew, for instance - while others call off their engagement. It's the circle of celebrity life.
Indeed, according to reports, Kanye West and Alexis Phifer have broken up. The rapper supposedly dumped his girlfriend, who he's been dating since 2002, without giving a significant reason.
Sources close to the hip-hop star claim Kanye even asked for his ring back.
It's all over for Alexis Phifer and Kanye West.
A source close to the couple said:
"Kanye is possessed by the tour and everything going on and just couldn't keep it going. They are still friends and have broken up and gotten back together before, so it could work out."

What in the hell is Alexis wearing in that pic? It looks as if she has not pants on. Is it me, or is my eyes playing tricks on me?

I knew this was going to happen! When I saw it on E News, my mouth dropped! I didn"t know the exact day or time, however, it was revealed to me after I read a Blender issue featuring Kanye on the front cover. When I read the article, forgive me if it's not verbatim, he said "If there was a Bible written in the new millenium, I'd definitely be one of the characters in it. I've thought that very same thing before, and from that point, tears rolling down my face and all, I knew he'd be my husband. Destiny. Do you believe in it? God put me in Ye's plans, and one day, he will love me! You"ll see! Crestfallen I am a little for Alexis because "Breaking up is hard to do", but when God is in control, you cannot stop what is meant to be. I believe the only reason why he's held on to her this long is because Dr. Donda West wanted so much for this to work for them. However, life throws curve balls at you all the time, and what's meant to be (as I said before) will be, but they were not! I've never met Kanye, but when I do, he'll know I'm the one. Everytime I see him on television, I feel the sadness in his eyes. It cuts my soul that he's hurting inside, and I wish i could be there for him. Before Dr. West passed, I'd see pictures of Kanye and Alexis, and I could just tell that she was nothing but a mere jewel on his side, no disrespect. I've never seen any spark for her, or magic in his eyes toward her. I know all of this sounds CRAZY, but God gives us discernment when we diligently seek him, and this is only a fragment of my future that I've seen. Things always get worse before they get better, and if you're reading this Kanye, I just want to tell you to hold on to God's NEVER CHANGING hands, accept everything that has happened to you, embrace it, and know that he's preparing you to be what you've dreamed to be. The number 1 artist in the world! There's so much more that I'd like to say, but the words and the way I feel about you are very intimate to me. Just know that in due time, everything will make sense to you. And you'll meet me one day and I'll be that light at the end of this tunnel that seems very dark right now. I'm sorry, I digress. I just know what's going to happen, and I hope you don't think I need to turn myself into a mental asylum. Flaws and all, I am the one for you. Sorry if I came on too strong, surprisingly I'm usually shy when it comes to expressing my feelings. However, I must follow my heart and what thus said the Lord, and send you these words of comfort. Somebody Loves You; Truly. Until we meet, stay focused, grounded, and give everyone from city to city what they want! They love you Kanye, they really do! Oh, and one more thing, you're not arrogant; just highly confident! You're not ungrateful; you just know what you deserve, and want what's due to you! You're not crazy; they just don't understand, nor do they respect your mind! And, you look so sexy when you have your spasms! It's so spoiled of you to have them! But I understand because I don't want to grow up either. I must admit, I'm a grown ass kid too!

I have been a fan of kanye's music since he was just a shadow and i cant say that kanye and alexis had something special because in my view, when we can logically think things through then sparks hardly fly cuz we can usually predict the result. My point is, there isnt a woman in this world can be with kanye and he can fell or see any spark. KAnye has to find himself more and it is a pity alexis was apart of him even though im sure she helped inspire some of the music he wrote.

Kanye is doing his thing and the only woman that helped him can only be found in his heart ( his MOM).
