Kanye West went nuts on a photographer in Los Angeles earlier today. Yeezy was walking with his girlfriend Kim Kardashian as paparazzi snapped photos of the couple. West had his head down, oblivious to the street sign directly in his path and walked head first into it.

After checking his head, West was fairly calm as he told the photogs to stop taking pictures while he and Kim walked into a restaurant. Moments later he emerged from the restaurant and started cursing loudly at a photographer who said he had just arrived on the scene.

"Don't take another f*cking photo man! Don't take no photos, stop it!" Kanye yelled "All of you motherf*ckers stop it!"

Chief Keef many only be 17-years old, but he's dealing with adult problems that come along with being a star with a child.

Keef was sued for child support in January by a middle school aged girl he got pregnant when he was 15. The baby was born in 2011.

Mark Konkol of DNAInfo disputes TMZ's claims that the mom is in middle school.

"TMZ is all rumors and I went and checked out the court filings and found out she's in college now," Konkol told 107.5 WGCI’s The Morning Riot back in January. "She's only two months younger than Chief Keef and it wasn't as scandalous as everyone said it was."

TMZ is still sticking by it's initial story.

TMZ reports that Keef has been ordered to pay $2,600 a month based on his monthly income of $13,000. He also has to cough up $10,400 in unpaid support.

A hearing is set for next month to finalize the financial agreement.
