Kanye poses in a swastika chain with white supremacist Nick Fuentes
Kanye West's latest outrageous stunt is a video featuring him posing in a diamond-encrusted swastika necklace next to infamous white supremacist Nick Fuentes.
The controversial rapper, who has made numerous public antisemitic comments, introduces a smiling Fuentes on the video as his 'white supremacist homeboy.'
In the now-deleted video, which was posted to X, West, who has legally changed his name to Ye, is seen standing next to Fuentes inside some kind of large venue, with loud music blaring nearby.
'Yo,' West says to the camera. 'You know I'm here with my white supremacist homeboy Nick. We're back.' The rapper is wearing the large Nazi symbol on his chest and jewel-encrusted grills.
The pair are known to be friendly, having been photographed together at dinner with Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago residence in 2022 — resulting in a backlash against the president.
Shortly afterward, West appeared on far-right media network InfoWars and sang the praise of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.
In recent weeks, West has displayed a bizarre infatuation with the swastika and other Nazi imagery. In another now-deleted post West claimed to be teasing a new artwork for his Sunday service choir that bore a striking resemblance to the logo of the SS.
In February, the rapper appeared in a 60-second ad at the Super Bowl, in which he directed viewers to his website to sell T-shirts bearing a swastika. The shirts cost $20, though the sales website – yeezy.com – later stated that the store was 'unavailable.'
Last August Fuentes claimed West had floated the idea of somehow legally changing his name to a swastika.
Fuentes is a Holocaust denier and has previously called for non-Christians to be executed.

There's only one Jordon Hudson confidant willing to talk about her — here's what he said
There have been many descriptors added to Jordon Hudson's name over the past 12 months as her relationship with Bill Belichick has come under intense scrutiny. For the lone Hudson confidant who has spoken publicly about the former college cheerleader, one label transcends new heights. 'I consider her a supernova,' celebrity hairstylist Dougie Freeman, who likened his one-time employee to the phenomenon described by NASA as the 'extremely bright, super powerful explosion of a star,' said in a new interview with The Athletic. Advertisement 5 One Jordon Hudson confidant is opening up to The Athletic about Bill Belichick's 24-year-old girlfriend. Getty Images 5 Bill Belichick's romance with Jordon Hudson became public in 2024. Getty Images for the American Museum of Natural History 'Our motto here at the salon is, 'Let us help you use what you've got to get what you want' … and maybe Jordon Hudson is a good example of that.' Advertisement Hudson, who shot to fame in the summer of 2024 when her romance with the 73-year-old Belichick became public, began working at Freeman's West End Salon & Spa in Provincetown, Mass., when she was still in high school. 5 Dougie Freeman worked with Jordon Hudson. Facebook/West End Salon and Spa Freeman believes the Massachusetts town, regarded as one of the most welcoming and friendly LGBTQ+ locales in the country, helped to broaden Hudson's horizons. 'Growing up in this town, she saw how alternative relationships work. They can work,' Freeman said. 'I think that validated it for her.' Advertisement Freeman is one of the few connected to Hudson who has opened up about the Miss Maine USA contestant, with The Athletic noting the 'dozen-plus friends of Hudson' whom they reached out to did not get back to the outlet. 5 Jordon Hudson's profile has continued to rise amid her relationship with Bill Belichick. WireImage 'She seems to be doing fine,' said Freeman, who 'last spoke to Hudson via a series of internet DMs,' per The Athletic. 'She said, 'I understand you're going to do an interview with the Washington Post.' And I said, 'I said a lot of nice things about you, I think you'll be pleased with it.' And I assume she was.' Advertisement Hudson has been by Belichick's side as he prepares for his first season coaching North Carolina's football team. 5 Bill Belichick with Jordon Hudson in March 2025. Getty Images Although there has been much speculation about Hudson's role in Chapel Hill — much of which began after a disastrous 'CBS Sunday Morning' appearance in April, when she punted a question about the origins of the Belichick relationship — the eight-time Super Bowl winner clarified her position in an ESPN interview last month. 'That's really off to the side, it's a personal relationship. She doesn't have anything to do with UNC football,' Belichick said. With the Tar Heels' season opener against TCU approaching on Sept. 1, all eyes remain on Belichick and Hudson — something Freeman cautioned as her star continues to rise. 'Fame comes with some barbs,' he said. 'And it doesn't always come with fortune.' Hudson and Belichick first crossed paths aboard a flight in 2021. They celebrated their four-year meet-iversary in February.

‘Hamilton' Tonys Reunion Misses the Mark: Here's Why Fans Are Ticked Off
'Hamilton' Tonys Reunion Misses the Mark: Here's Why Fans Are Ticked Off originally appeared on Parade. The original cast of Broadway's Hamilton returned to the Tonys stage for a special 10th anniversary performance, delivering a medley of the musical's most iconic songs. But some viewers felt the performance missed the mark. Here's why. It was a reunion a decade in the making as the original company members of Hamilton performed a tribute to the musical that reinvigorated Broadway in 2015. Midway into the 78th annual awards show, the cast didn't throw away "their shot" as they gathered onstage at New York's Radio City Musical Hall for a performance that brought the audience to its feet. Participating in this landmark performance were Carleigh Bettiol, Andrew Chappelle, Ariana DeBose, Alysha Deslorieux, Daveed Diggs, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Jonathan Groff, Sydney James Harcourt, Neil Haskell, and Sasha Hutchings. Also appearing were Christopher Jackson, Thayne Jasperson, Jasmine Cephas Jones, Stephanie Klemons, Morgan Marcell, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Javier Muñoz, Leslie Odom, Jr., Okieriete Onaodowan, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Jon Rua, Austin Smith, Phillipa Soo, Seth Stewart, Betsy Struxness, Ephraim Sykes and Voltaire Wade-Greene. The original cast performed a medley of songs from the Broadway musical at the 2025 Tony Awards. They started with "Non-Stop" and "My Shot", then moved into "The Schuyler Sisters," "Guns and Ships," "You'll Be Back," "Yorktown (The World Turned Upside Down)," "The Room Where It Happens," and ended with "History Has Its Eyes on You."

Here's what they had to say. "Wishing it was longer but I absolutely loved it," wrote one Tonys viewer on Instagram. "I cried when it ended because it wasn't enough!. Need more!!" penned a second fan. "Also, no actual singing from Jonathan Groff? Come on!" a third claimed. Other fans noticed the omission of one key cast member from some of the tribute's most pivotal moments. "Nice arrangement, but I would have loved to hear/see Anthony Ramos too," a viewer said. Ramos played John Laurens in the original cast. Another fan agreed, writing, "So sad that Anthony didn't have a solo but it was an amazing performance." Hamilton debuted off Broadway at the Public Theater in 2015, transferring to the Richard Rodgers Theatre that year. At the 70th annual Tony Awards, the musical made history with a record-breaking 16 nominations and 11 wins including Best Musical. The musical went on to receive the Grammy Award, Olivier Award, Pulitzer Prize for Drama and a special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors. Its Original Broadway Cast Recording became the first in history to be certified diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America.
