Good afternoon, everyone! I’m here to deliver some very confusing news that will most definitely gross you tf out: There is a video of Kanye West appearing to pick wax out of his ear and then eat it.
Here’s a little piece of information that may disturb you:
A video exists of Kanye West picking something out of his ear and then touching — whatever it was — to his mouth.
Although it’s not totally clear wtf is going on in the video, people are concluding that Kanye is doing the unspeakable; putting his own earwax into his mouth.
I’ve watched the video about 50 times trying to justify what went down. But it just doesn’t make any sense.
Kanye has been called out online countless times for questionable things he’s done.
I’ll start with the most famous one: The time he snagged the mic from Taylor Swift at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards after she won Best Female Video for “You Belong With Me”, and complained that Beyoncé should have won instead.
“I’m sorry, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!,” he uttered into the mic while Taylor stood awkwardly next to him in disbelief.
Obviously, the internet had a field day with that one.
Then there was the time he demanded that Twitter take down all of the fake Kanye accounts.
“I DON’T HAVE A [expletive] TWITTER,” he wrote in all caps on his blog in 2009.
“HEY TWITTER, TAKE THE SO CALLED KANYE WEST TWITTER DOWN NOW … WHY? … BECAUSE MY CAPS LOCK KEY IS LOUD!!!!!!!!!”
Ironically, Kanye ended up becoming quite the spectacle on Twitter years later.
He really could not be stopped.
People were genuinely questioning Kanye’s sanity as one-sidedly tried to feud with Drake.
Even his wife, Kim Kardashian , admitted that she wanted him “off Twitter”.
At the time, Ariana Grande had just released new music and asked the world to stop paying attention to Kanye’s antics and listen to her song instead. Kanye didn’t like that very much.
“Guys, i know there are grown men arguing online rn but miley and i dropping our beautiful, new songs tonight so if y’all could please jus behave for just like a few hours so the girls can shine that’d be so sick thank u,” Ari wrote in a since-deleted tweet that set Kanye off.
So, I rest my case. Kanye has done plenty of questionable things that have caused outrage from fans online.
The list really goes on and on.
Don’t even get me started on his love for Donald Trump — that’s a whole other can of worms.
The point is, Kanye has a long, long history of doing things that we can’t always rationalize.
But this, by far, is the grossest thing he’s done.
The video shows Kanye scratching the inside of his ear, then putting his fingers directly to his mouth before someone — presumably, Kim — walks up and gives him a kiss on the cheek.

Fans are trying to figure out what Kanye was doing exactly.
And while some people have tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, the consensus is that he ate his own earwax.
Even IF Kanye wasn’t eating his earwax, was it really necessary to put your fingers in your mouth immediately after scratching your ear?
If he had just waited a few seconds in between those two actions, things may have been different.
This fan hilariously referenced Kanye’s 2009 Taylor Swift VMA stunt.
He is really never going to live that moment down — there is no coming back from that.
But as I said, some fans are still trying to make sense of it all — insisting there’s no way Kanye was eating his earwax.
I’m really hoping that there is, in fact, a better explanation for what we’re seeing in the video.
Here’s the full video once more. Watch it a few times and place your votes!
Do you think Kanye snuck a taste of his own earwax?
Or do you have a more reasonable explanation for what was really happening?
