Kanye West paid $57 million for a Malibu mansion, then gutted and abandoned it. Now, nobody wants it.

  1. “Gutted it” sounds like he took out all the furniture, and window treatments. It doesn’t really explain [what he actually did](https://imgur.com/a/iKg5ddC). He tried (and damn near succeeded) ripping out everything: the windows, the flooring, HVAC, electricity, the plumbing. The contractor he hired to do the work refused to continue and placed a 1mill contractor’s lien against the property which impacts it’s sale. He is also suing West for missing payments, alleged disability discrimination, multiple labor code violations, unpaid wages and wrongful termination.

    It’s basically a useless shell and new owners will have to spend millions rebuilding on top of the 40mill price tag West demands.

  2. But he called out Diddy!! I thought we was “right all along” and “totally not insane” now :((

  3. Now he’s just sitting on the side of the road with his chain out.

  4. Why is anyone surprised by this? This person is mentally ill and totally unmedicated and otherwise untreated. Yet everyone still monetizes his illness and its outcome.

  5. It’s really fucking de motivational watching celebrities waste amounts of money that could change literally hundreds of thousands of lives

  6. Sounds like a graduate of the Trump School of Business.

  7. Imagine being able to just throw away 57 million dollars. I feel like most of us really don’t grasp how wealthy a lot of these kind of people really are, not just celebrities but just the whole upper class. It’s like when you hear someone is a billionaire or worth a billion dollars, but then you see those videos that help you visualize just how much a billion is. Similarly I think we sort of underestimate just how rich the rich really are.

  8. That’s the problem with people who think they are designers cuz their friends said they were crazy creative once at lunch.

  9. Not to mention it was a Taodo Ando house. An extremely talented architect. Fuck Kanye.

  10. I’ll go live in it. Make an album. That’d be nice to have a quiet space.

  11. Dude is a hate bating narcissistic idiot. People need to stop mentioning his mental condition as there is no proof of it. We only know about him having the condition because HE himself mentioned it

  12. Street rat will never have class even if he has more than few billions.

  13. Crazy. Would he mortgage that 57 m or would he pay cash? What a waste. Alright so his paper worth is $400m. So about 15% of his worth is in this bomb shelter on the beach.
