Kanye West comentou publicamente, via Instagram, o seu divórcio de Kim Kardashian.
Numa imagem partilhada no Instagram, que contém um longo texto, Kanye compara o divórcio a outros dissabores: “Divorciar-me é como ter covid em grande escala, é como quando o teu médico não percebe nada, como se estivesse a pisar vidro, a levar pancada na escola, a ser agredido no centro comercial, a queimar a mão no forno”, pode ler-se.
Outras passagens: “É como atirarem-te às chamas por dizeres a verdade, e chamarem-te mentiroso. É como o Michael Myers [referência ao assassino mascarado da saga de cinema “Halloween”]. (…) É como cravarem-te unhas nas mãos. (…) É como um funeral, um aborto espontâneo, uma perna partida”.
“O Michael Jackson explicou-o bem: sentes-te um vegetal”, completou, numa referência à letra de ‘Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin”.
