Kanye West disses Jay Z's Samsung endorsement deal at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity…
From Page Six
Kanye West may have been at Cannes to talk about music and celebrity endorsement deals — but he first demanded that all labels be removed from water bottles ahead of his session.
A festival source told us, “Kanye said he wasn’t going to be photographed promoting a brand if he’s not being paid for it. Organizers had to scramble to rip off the labels before his session started.”
When the discussion turned to celebrity and branding deals, as well as Jay Z’s deal with Samsung, Kanye quipped, “I am not a fan of Samsung, by the way.”
He added, “The reason I said I didn’t like Samsung is because throughout my entire life … I have to work with the No. 1, I can’t work with anyone but Jay Z, I can’t be with any girl but Kim because that’s the girl that I look at her pictures the most and get turned on the most. I am not going to represent any company except Louis Vuitton because that’s the best.”
