NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – In an effort to repair his image resulting from his shenanigans on live television awards shows– including the last Grammys — rapper Kanye West, a.k.a. Mr. Kim Kardashian, is throwing his money and artistic skills into the world of fashion.

West has just launched his own new clothing line for men which will be distrbuted exclusively by the GAP store. The new line is called ‘Bridging The GAP by West.’

For his signature design, West has introduced the Manskirt, inspired by the Scottish kilt. He describes it as the “ultimate comfort in men’s wear, symbolic of the equality between the sexes.”

“The time has come for real men like myself to be comfortable in wearing women’s skirt,” West said.

The Manskirt comes in black or white and is made from 500-thread, 100% cotton, for $199. The bottom half of the long sleeves can come off to convert into short sleeves, ideal for the hot summer months.

A fake fur version can be special ordered for $399.

KANYE WEST BARRED FROM ALL FUTURE AWARDS SHOWS

imageLOS ANGELES, California ( The Adobo Chronicles) – He did it again. Rapper Kanye West reprised his most infamous stunt at Sunday night’s Grammy awards, taking the stage as Beck was accepting the album of the year award. West popped up on stage and moved toward Beck as if he was about to take the trophy from him. Instead, West turned away and quickly jumped down.

Beck beat out both the night’s top winner, Sam Smith, and the category’s expected winner, Beyoncé.

The incident was a repeat of the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, when West accosted Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech after Swift’s “You Belong With Me” beat Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies” for Female Video of the Year.

“Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’ma let you finish,” West said after taking the microphone at Radio City Music Hall, “but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!”

West was roundly criticized for his action and was even called a “jackass” by no less than President Obama.

After this latest incident, organizers of the major awards shows like the Grammys, MTV Video Music Awards, People’s Choice Awards and the Oscars have unanimously agreed to disinvite and bar West from their respective ceremonies. The television networks that air these awards programs also joined in the ‘West boycott.’

No more Kanye West on live TV! And Beyoncé just lost her most loyal cheerleader.
