A Canadian model has made a new claim that she slept with Kanye West while his girlfriend Kim Kardashian was pregnant.
24-year old Leyla Ghobadi told Star magazine that the affair started on July 6th at a Kanye West concert in Atlantic City when he had his security team pick her out of the audience to meet him for drinks after the show.
According to the Daily Mail, they had drinks at HQ Nightclub. Yeezy asked the model if she wanted to head back to his hotel room, but she denied.
"I refused, as I felt it was too rushed," she told the publication.
Kanye gave Leyla and her friends backstage passes for his concert the next night. After the show Kanye reportedly told Leyla that his relationship with Kim was “just for publicity” and to “increase his fan base." The two later headed back to his hotel for a night of sex.
The affair continued until after Kim was pregnant. Leyla claims the rapper contacted her last weekend to see if she wanted to hook up, but she declined because of Kim's pregnancy.
Leyla says she's coming forward now because it's the right thing to do.
"This is going to destroy the Kardashian family. It’s bad. It’s really bad. It’s just embarrassing. But if I were Kim and about to have a baby, I would want to know," she said
**UPDATE**
A rep for Kanye West is shooting down Leyla Ghobadi's claims of an affair with the rapper. In a statement issued to TMZ, the rep says Leyla is looking to make a come up off of Kanye's name. Read below.
This most recent attack on Kanye West and his family is totally without merit. It's a blatant attempt by a misguided individual who is clearly seeking publicity, and another in a series of malicious stories drummed up by non-credible 'news' sources. This is a sad attempt to hurt two people trying to live their lives.
It's a known fact that popular music has cycles. Different genres and artists have had their time at the top throughout the years.
Currently artists like Mac Miller, Macklemore and Robin Thicke are enjoying a rise in popularity and radio airplay. And of course Justin Timberlake is doing his thing, but does that mean black artists have lost the ability to make chart topping soul and rap music?
Today on the latest episode of "The Realness," Peter Rosenberg and Ebro argued that black artists have been moved out of their spot.
"Most black artists wouldn't even make these kind of soulful records because they're so busy trying to make it on white radio," Ebro said. "We're afraid to make our music. So we make jigaboo tunes and goon tunes and strip club anthems."
Check out what Ebro and Rosenberg have to say and weigh in with your opinions on the subject in the comment section below.
