Kanye Hiding In India?
Dirty Whorelebrity News —
... that ya boy Kanye is seeking refuge in India. Hopefully he’ll emerge with a 30~year~old Bollywood virgin. A pimp can dream.

Following his no-show at Saturday's BET awards, multiple sources report that Ye has decamped to an ashram in Pondicherry for a month, where he'll meditate and, we hope, find the inner peace to recover from Taylor Swift's outrageous victory over Beyoncé for Best Female Video last month.

His latest pet project is a short film entitled We Were Once A Fairytale, directed by Where The Wild Things Are director Spike Jonze. And it's riveting. No, seriously, I wasn't able to take my eyes away from the screen, never knowing what in the hell 'Ye would do next.
