Kanye West Explains Why He Brought A Jesus Lookalike On Stage For YEEZUS Tour

Kanye West definitely stepped on toes with his recent Jesus Lookalike stunt which has sparked a lot of criticism. Speaking at Wild 94.9, Kanye explains his decision to bring Jesus on stage during his YEEZUS tour.

"I had a friend of mine that is a pastor and we were discussing how we were going to deliver it. My girl even asked afterwards “isn’t that weird if Jesus comes on stage or something like that?” No we do plays all the time where people play Jesus. What’s awesome about Christianity is that we are allowed to portray God. We'e allowed to draw an image of Him. We’re allowed to make movies about Him. Other religions you can’t do that. And that's really amazing. Michelangelo did it…It’s a painting, it’s a sculpture, it’s a moving opera, it's a play, it’s a message. I’m not even going to do any comparisons with that. God knows where my heart is at," Kanye said.

Kanye West Tries To Mock Christianity By Bringing A Jesus Lookalike On Stage (VIDEO and PHOTOS)

Kanye West took bizarre to another level when he brought out a Jesus lookalike on stage during the first night of his 'Yeezus' tour over the weekend, just hours before the rapper postponed the rest of the dates until October 31.

The 'New Slaves' hitmaker took to the stage at the Key Arena in Seattle on Saturday night where he performed tracks from his latest album 'Yeezus' and it seems that Kanye was on a mission to get everybody talking with the first show after he brought out an extra who bore an uncanny resemblance to Jesus, donning a white cloth and similar long dark hair.

Kanye performed his College Dropout hit, "Jesus Walks." "White Jesus, is that you?… Oh, shit!," he said jokingly, according to MTV News. Kanye', alongside a group of women back-up dancers dressed in white, later bowed to the Jesus look-alike as he stood on the mountain top, while the 'Kanye's faithful gave all praises, shouting "Yeezus" until the house lights came on.

'How Flavour Flavour N'abania And Emeka Morgan Abandoned MC Loph's Mum' - Bianka Johnson

A concern Nigerian citizen Bianka Johnson sent out this letter about how high life crooner Flavour and Morgan Ent. CEO Emeka Morgan, supposedly abandoned MC Loph's mother (pictured above with Bianca) after her son died in a tragic accident in 2011. Flavour and MC Loph were childhood friends while Emeka Morgan is the CEO of the record label MC Loph was signed to before his tragic passing.  Read Bianca's write up below:

My name is Bianka Johnson, I reside in the United States of America. I am from Nigeria, a healthcare practitioner, actors-manager and a goodwill citizen. Flavour Nabania didn't make a tribute song "Iwe", he made a mockery of his friend, the late McLoph. Below is my story.

Tragedy brought us together.... That's how I came to know Mrs. Nwaozor, affectionately known to me as "Mama." Back in November 2011, someone posted a tribute video, "Iwe", by Flavor, on Facebook. On that day I distinctly remember viewing the video on YouTube and sobbing for over an hour after watching this video that paid homage to two siblings who so suddenly lost their lives. I was simply paralyzed thinking about the magnitude of grief one particular mother would have to endure. You see, Mama was the mother who lost those two adult children on the same day, specifically, a son, the erstwhile entertainer, MC Loph, and a daughter, Chinwe.
