“Yo Kanye, F you, and I mean that with everything inside of me. We’ve got to cancel him, and I know we do not try to be in cancel culture, but we have to hit him in his pockets now because he obliviously does not care about African American culture,” Fox can he heard saying in the video.

The actress responded to the ad in a tweet, stating, “Now dawling if u gonna use a clip featuring me it should be accurate! I was not happy with you 4 saying George Floyd wasn’t murdered, but hey THANKS 4 watching my @foxsoultv show #CocktailsWithQueens & know 2 Can Play That Game!”

In another video posted to Twitter, Ye discussed his recent meeting with former President Donald Trump and said he asked Trump to be his vice president. Ye also said he told Trump “that’s the mother of my children” after the former president made a comment about his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian.

West previously ran for president in 2020 but only brought in about 67,906 votes, according to Ballotpedia.org.
