Amber Rose Forgives Kim, Kanye for Alleged Affair
Amber Rose is sticking to her story: Kanye West cheated on her with Kim Kardashian.
But the model and aspiring artist is just keeping it real and being honest, she says. She isn't actually angry at either party. At least not anymore.
"I forgive her," Rose told TMZ last night. "And I forgive Kanye too... it's not a big deal, you know?"
Amber even says she made a mistake in referring to Kim as a "homewrecker" in her initial interview with Star.
"That was kind of mean," Rose admitted yesterday, adding: "I'm not a mean-spirited person... I just acted on my emotions when I said it."
Kanye West to Launch New Production Company, Likens Self to Steve Jobs
Watch the throne ... Steve Jobs.
Kanye West, who has never been accused of thinking small, or having a modest opinion of himself, detailed plans for a new production company on Twitter Wednesday.
In a three-hour rant, the 34-year-old rapper / hip-hop mogul outlined his plan for Donda, a brand-new, far-reaching company named after his late mother Donda West.
Donda will "pick up where Steve Jobs left off," West said of the late, visionary Apple CEO / founder. Way to set manageable expectations. How will it do that, exactly, Kanye?
With 22 divisions of writers, DJs, publicists, designers, musicians, scientists and SO much more, the company headed by the musician will strive to "make products and experiences that people want and can afford," West Tweeted.
He will "help simplify and aesthetically improve everything we see hear, touch, taste and feel," and "dream of, create, advertise and produce products driven equally by emotional want and utilitarian need... To marry our wants and needs."
Again, no baby steps for Mr. West.
Did Kim Kardashian Steal Kanye West from Amber Rose?
Amber Rose drops a bombshell in the latest issue of Star Magazine.
The short-haired model, who rose to fame by dating Kanye West, tells the tabloid there's a major reason why she split from the iconic rapper. A major, untalented, money-starved reason, that is.
“[Kim Kardashian] is one of the main reasons why me and Kanye are not together,” Rose tells the tabloid. “She’s a homewrecker!”
Amber Rose is not the first person to accuse Kim Kardashian of kozying up to Kanye West.
Rose adds that her relationship with West was not the only one affected by Kim's cheating ways.
“They were both cheating,” Amber says of Kanye and Kim, alluding to the latter's commitment to Reggie Bush at the time and adding that Kardashian sent West photos of herself, never responding to Rose's request for her to not be "that person."
But Amber is rumored to be engaged to Wiz Khalifa and there has a message for the talent-free reality star:
“I want to thank her. Because if she was never a homewrecker, then I never would have met Wiz, and I wouldn’t be as happy as I am now.”

Kanye West and Jay-Z Rock the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show
The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show did not lack for star power Tuesday night, on the catwalk or off. Among the big name acts to perform: Kanye West.
West gave a short, sweet tribute to his late mom before performing "Stronger" and later on teamed with Jay-Z to perform their song ”N!ggas in Paris.”
"In 2007 I was supposed to perform this song on this show, and I lost my superhero. Now she is my super angel," said Kanye of the late Donda West.
The Victoria's Secret angels proceeded to walk the runway as West performed. Symbolism, people. Deep stuff. Then he and Jay rocked the house.
Watch both performances below:

Down Goes Kanye!!!
We really have no idea why people treat Kanye West like Hitler. The two couldn't be less alike. For example:
No way would Hitler ever fall in his face in front of thousands of people. They'd never fear him if he acted like such a klutz.
But that's exactly what happened to Kanye during a performance in Norway last night. The following video speaks for itself. Its hilarious, hilarious self...
Kanye West Rants: I'm Treated Like Hitler!
Kanye West is at it again.
At the Big Chill music festival Saturday night, the 34-year-old rapper ranted in the middle of his set about being misunderstood and unappreciated.
"I walk through the hotel and I walk down the street, and people look at me like I'm f*%king insane, like I'm Hitler," he lamented, adding, "One day the light will shine through and one day people will understand everything I did."
West was greeted by boos and confusion.
The erratic performer also defended his "Monster" music video, which features, among other things, cannibalism and girls hanging from their necks.
"Who saw the video before it got banned, before they took it down and before women's groups starting saying that a person that lost the most important woman in his life is now against women in some way?" asked West.
West, who started 30 minutes late, likened himself to Michael Jordan.
"[Jordan] changed so much in basketball, he took his power to make a difference. It's so much f*%king going on in music right now and somebody has to make a f*%king difference," he said, explaining his tardiness.
Amen. Highlight of the above clip? The fan yelling after the 7:00 mark.

Justin Bieber Defends Kanye West: Not an A-Hole!
Kanye West isn't exactly known as the most magnanimous man in Hollywood. His Tweets are epic, his concert rants controversial.
But Justin Bieber has worked with the rapper and said of Kanye in a recent interview with hip-hop magazine XXL: "He's not really an asshole like everyone makes him out to be."
Whoa. Dropping the A-bomb! Justin must be serious.
Granted, Bieber admits, West "can do bad things" and, yes, he can "make bad decisions." Overall, though? "He's really generally a good guy," Bieber said of the artist with whom he collaborated on "Runaway Love."
Give the Biebs credit - or scoff at his decisions - for being unafraid to align himself with stars who don't fit his squeaky clean image. There's Kanye here. And then there's the duet he produced with Chris Brown.
