Shocking footage shows Kanye West storm out of interview 'like a big baby' for bizarre reason

Piers Morgan has branded Kanye West a 'big baby' after the rapper abruptly called time on an interview just minutes after it began.

Morgan took to Twitter to announce that his new interview with Kanye 'didn’t last long or go well', though the chat show host admitted it wasn't much of a surprise after the pair previously clashed during a 2022 interview as they discussed Kanye's comments about Jewish people.

That conversation took place after West wrote online that he wanted to go 'death con 3 On Jewish People', but Kanye 'adjourned' the interview mid-way through when Morgan challenged him on the controversial remarks.

Fast-forward to this week and Morgan met Kanye again as they took part in a virtual interview, in which Morgan welcomed 'Ye West' to his show, Piers Morgan Uncensored, alongside the rapper's friend Sneako.

Morgan had only just asked Kanye how he was doing when the rapper indicated he had issue with one of Morgan's comments, saying: "I don't use the term West."

Once Morgan clarified that he would call him by the name 'Ye', Kanye went on to discuss how he was doing, his social media following and his music - topics Kanye touched on in quick succession as he hit out at Morgan.

Kanye corrected Morgan after he claimed the rapper had '32 million followers on X', rather than 33.3 million, to which Kanye said: "You’re not gonna take inches off my d*ck, bro."

The rapper's criticism of Morgan prompted the host to ask: "With all due respect, Ye, what are you talking about? I haven't said anything."

Kanye then accused Morgan of failing to 'take accountability' for his mistake, after which he walked off the set.

Morgan was left shocked by the abrupt departure, and later took to Twitter to describe what had happened.

"So, I interviewed Kanye West again today," he wrote alongside a screenshot from the interview. "As I expected, given what I’ve said about him recently, it didn’t last long or go well. This was him right before he stomped off like a big baby."

Another Twitter user pointed out that things started to go down hill after Morgan referred to Kanye as 'Ye West', writing: "Piers Morgan calling him 'Kanye West' is exactly why Ye left the interview."

However, Morgan hit back with a reference to Kanye's Twitter handle, writing: "His X account name is @kanyewest …."

Kanye's unimpressed attitude towards Morgan is the latest in a series of criticisms that the rapper has voiced against fellow celebrities recently, including Jay Z and Beyonce.

In a since-deleted tweet, Kanye appeared to question the mental capacity of the couple's seven-year-old twins, Rumi and Sir Carter.

Kanye later issued an apology for his comments, saying: “I’m sorry Jay Z. I be feeling bad about my tweet but I still feel I gave my life to this industry and thought so many people were my family but when I needed family on some real sh*t none of these rap [n-word] had my back.”

Also this year, Kanye was hit with legal action from Taylor Swift after he alleged she'd had a threesome with Justin Bieber and Harry Styles - prompting Swift to file a 'cease and desist' against the rapper.
