Kanye West says he can't be mad at Spanish fashion house Balenciaga for turning down his request to attend its exclusive show during Paris Fashion Week, which ended on Sunday, March 2.
According to reports, the designers didn't feel his hip-hop swagger fit in with the tone of the runway show. The snub, however, didn't bother the rapper one bit.
He wrote on his blog: "I totally love and respect any designer that won't let me come 2 there show... it's their show... they don't owe me anything... Balenciaga is one of the illest lines right now and I don't feel any type of way about not getting in! There's always a catch 22 in being a celeb ... your motives are always questioned... but only time will show my true love MY FIRST LOVE is for fashion and I appreciate just being in a position 2 afford 2 be able 2 spend a week in Paris visiting shows."
He continued: "I never use my blog 2 clear stuff up... but this is so close 2 my heart I had 2 say something... Anyone saying something negative has it wrong, they've got me wrong... I just want 2 make great art on every level and fashion shows are one of the best forms of art in the world. Thank you Paris again for the inspiration!!!"
