Kanye West has now gone to a state where even 'momager' Kris Jenner is finding it extremely difficult to "control" him, it is being reported. Kris, who recently made an appearance on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show', said that she was unable to control the rapper's political outbursts sometimes.
Ellen, who was clearly neither impressed nor satisfied with the answer, wanted to know what the Kardashian-Jenner matriarch thought exactly of her son-in-law's recent visit to the White House in order to attend to a meeting with POTUS Donald Trump.
During Kanye's controversial visit to Washington D.C., he brought up abolishing the 13th amendment, said his MAGA hat made him feel like “Superman,” and voiced his admiration of Trump’s “male energy,” amongst other things.
“It was surprising that he was able to have that, you know…it was very spontaneous,” the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star admitted. “And the stuff that they were talking about — ” Kris trailed off, laughing.
She continued, “When they got to the airplane, I was like oh my gosh. That’s so — that is so Kanye.” Here, Kris was referring to “iPlane 1,” which is essentially Kanye's idea of a hydrogen-powered airplane that could replace the president’s Air Force 1.
However, the powerful matriarch soon dropped her lighthearted tone and went on to make a very serious confession in front of the cameras. “He was sharing thoughts and things of himself that I would rather he share some of that stuff privately,” the mother of six admitted to Ellen.
Before even getting to the topic of Kanye's visit to the Oval Office, Kris mentioned to Ellen how she wanted to desperately help the rapper. After calling him an “amazing son-in-law,” she explained, “You can’t control what someone else is doing. I can’t always control what any of them do at any time." She added, "But I think what I really want to do is be there to help him and be the best version of himself that he can be. And he knows that we’re there if he needs us."
Further referring to the intense drama caused over Kanye's original comment about slavery sounding “like a choice”, which brought the rapper a tidal wave of bad press, Kris told Ellen on the show, "You’re always concerned when there’s controversy and drama and things are going on and it’s sometimes worrisome, you know.”
