Kanye West Gold Statue

Three are a lot of people who feel strongly about Kanye West right now. Recently there’s a video floating on Twitter of poet Jasmine Mans sharing a message to Kanye and it is being tagged as he is ex, even though it’s not. But in Los Angeles, there is an artist, Plastic Jesus, who debuted a “False Idol” statue of Kanye West mid-Oscar Week.

If you are in Tinseltown you can get a glimpse of the statue at Hollywood Blvd and La Brea Ave. The piece is gold like the statue act will be handed out on Sunday but brings Yeezus in for the figure that is modeled after Jesus, with spikes through the hand but sans the cross.

“He’s a genius at writing and producing but he’s not a God, and that’s where we put him. Until there’s an issue in his life or a hiccup in his career, then we crucify him,” Plastic Jesus shared with The Hollywood Reporter. “We’ve seen it before with people like Britney Spears or Lindsay Lohan. The same people who put him into a God-like place are the same yapping at his heels for a piece of flesh when something happens.”

Plastic claims that he isn’t looking to attack Ye but is targeting the media and consumers for how we treat celebrities.
