So Ikea mocks Kanye West, who wants a collaboration

Ikea x Kanye West

Ikea responded to Kanye West's request for collaboration. In March, the American rapper tweeted that he was greatly inspired by a visit to Ikea, and recently expressed his desire to collaborate on the radio. After a few days, Ikea herself responded to the request, being "enthusiastic" about West's proposal and telling him that she could make him famous. But the sentence must be read in English, otherwise we do not know that it is a clever play on words. "... we could make you famous" is a reference to his infamous video with naked celebrities. Well, Ikea also added an interesting design for a bed and a chair, specially adapted for his wife Kim Kardashian.

Kanye West he cooperates with many different companies, as he is involved in many fields, not only music. With his wife Kim Kardashian one way or another, they make sure that they are constantly being talked about and written about.

Months ago, Kanye threw a bone to Swedish furniture giant Ikea when he sang praises on Twitter. But it doesn't stop there. Then he posted more sketches of a double bed and recently stated on the radio that he would like to design with Ikea interior furniture.

Then he also called Ikea (or she did Taylor Swift hacked into the account), since Kanye West was "courting" her after all. But her answer was far from expected in terms of "Of course, we look forward to our cooperation.” or "Unfortunately, we currently have no vacancies for the position of designer." No, her answer was quite sarcastic (Ikae has been quite 'naughty' lately, just look at this one advertisement) and is up to famous rapper and approached the proven fashion designer as if she was dealing with a relatively unknown up-and-coming furniture designer. His she didn't take the request too seriously, what's more, it's all even turned into a joke by posting the following text on Facebook:

Hi Kanye! We'd love to see what you've created…we can make you famous.” By being verbally 'famous' (famous) capitalized because this is the title of his song for which he recorded controversial music video, where he lies on a giant double bed with naked celebrities. They also included a fake design for the Yeezy bed, a double bed of epic proportions.

And speaking of epic proportions. For his wife Kim Kardashian and hers buttock they designed it right at Ikea special chair – Kardash, which has room for each ass separately.
