Kenya Moore Told Wendy Williams About Her Disastrous Date With Kanye West
For myself and other Real Housewives addicts, we are currently living in a Golden Age: Potomac is ending a near-perfect season, Salt Lake City’s an instant classic after just four eps, Atlanta premiered just last night (sans NeNe Leakes), and, uh, the less said about Orange County the better. Last Friday Kenya Moore appeared on Wendy Williams’ show to promote Atlanta’s thirteenth (!) season, and she dished about her kinda shitty marriage, her two-year-old baby genius, and that alleged Housewives stripper threesome. Then Wendy put Kenya in the Hot Seat and asked her if she ever went out with a celebrity. Kenya said yes, she had gone on one date with failed Presidential candidate Kanye West, but it was a “disaster.” Kenya ended up ditching when she found Yeezy watching porn. Ah, romance.
Kenya said (via Page Six):
“Somehow, we ended up going to his house and there was, like, some very explicit things on TV,” Moore shared through an awkward smile. “I was lost, he left me alone, I was just there for like five minutes, wandering around his house. When I followed the noises, he was watching something on TV that he probably shouldn’t have been. So, that was my exit!”
“As much as I love him, it was just the craziest thing.”
Here’s the clip:
Now, as someone who went on approximately fifty-ish online dates from 2012-2020, Kenya’s tale isn’t that wild. Have I dated Kanye West? No, but once I went out with a fedora-wearing moron who did editing work on Orphan Black, and repeatedly referred to Tatiana Maslany as “my girl Tats!” (ugh). Have I got lost in a dude’s (err, his parent’s) mansion? Yes. And then locked outside. I had to jump a gate like Kristen Wiig in the opening scene of Bridesmaids. Finally, have I come back from the bathroom to find my date watching porn? Twice. This is modern dating. It sucks big, and the only way to survive is to pretend everything’s A-OK and your soul isn’t slowly being Horcruxed by the indignity of it all.
Kenya didn’t specify what year they went out, but it was presumably before Kanye’s marriage to Kim Kardashian. Hell, maybe he was watching Kim’s sex tape on the TV, and Kenya got jealous! If anyone’s ego is as big Kanye’s, it’s Kenya’s. Actually, now that I think of it, these two would have been a perfect love match. I mean, flip the vowels, and they even have the same name! Imagine the confusion during the wedding vows? “I, Kanye, take you, the most beautiful, talented genius in the world, Kanye…damn, I mean Kenya! KENYA. To be my lawfully wedded super-wife. I love you, Kanye.”
