Kanye West’s most recent post to social media is, unsurprisingly, throwing fans off, as people try to guess if there’s a second meaning hidden somewhere.
Just yesterday, on January 15, the controversial rapper shared a throwback—and very explicit—video to his Instagram stories, which showed Pamela Anderson walking around naked as she presented a cake to Hugh Hefner on his birthday, back in 2008.
Kanye West’s post to his Instagram stories of a naked Pamela Anderson is raising some eyebrows
The then 41-year-old smiled as she walked over to the publisher, wearing nothing but high heels after reportedly performing a lap dance for him upon her arrival, as reported by the Daily Mail.
An unreleased West track titled “Hide Your B–tch” played in the background.
Hefner, who passed away in 2017 at the age of 91, was seen in good spirits and could be heard saying, “You’re looking good,” to Anderson as a whole group of people celebrated his 82nd birthday in Las Vegas.
Fans were puzzled — but took the opportunity to express how offensive they thought the post was.
“Kanye is an a–hole,” proclaimed one user on X.
“I don’t think Pamela Anderson is going to like what Kanye did…” one person theorized.
A third chimed in, “Why the f–ck did Kanye West post Pamela Anderson naked in his stories? It’s very difficult to defend this man, I try very hard sometimes.”
“Did Pamela Anderson approve Kanye to post that video or…?” another asked.
Netizens speculated Pamela Anderson would have some things to say about the video
Others brought in Bianca Censori, questioning how she could be okay with those kinds of posts and whether it may affect their current marriage.
“Why is she STILL with this,” one comment read, while another warned, “Run, Bianca, run.”
“He lives in his [own] universe, on his own rules, not caring about the rest of the world thinking of him, his wife and actions,” a netizen voiced.
Other fans speculated that it could hint at a potential Anderson-West collaboration for the music mogul’s upcoming album — although it certainly wouldn’t be a conventional announcement.
This also isn’t the first time the two have crossed paths.
Back in 2018, West and Anderson were linked together when the Foreign Affair star wrote a letter to him, claiming she believed Wikileaks founder Julian Assange was being “tortured” and that “they are trying to kill him.”
In a note originally obtained by TMZ, she wrote, “I support him and I know you value Free Speech — Visibility is good for him especially in America. Where they are trying to put him away for life or worse for exposing corruption in government.’
West and Anderson had previously crossed paths 7 years ago
“He’s been locked in a small room for almost 6 years in London at the Ecuadorian Embassy. And now he can have no visitors. No phone calls or internet. They are squeezing him.”
Anderson later explained that she wanted to do what she could to “share more about his fight” and believed West’s “no filter” mentality could make a difference.
“And you make an impact,” she added. “I’m sure a lot of people feel like you — They just are stuck in what society says is OK to say.”
She concluded the note by writing, “Or just look at his life and writing. How he has sacrificed for the truth. I think you’d admire him. Take care of you.”
According to People, Assange had been at the Embassy for approximately six years after he claimed political asylum to avoid facing extradition in Sweden over a rape allegation he refuted long ago.
Commenters held West accountable for his actions
