We don’t know whether to laugh maniacally or feel sorry for Kanye West. Right after the controversial rapper’s feud with Taylor Swift, he’s now the face of IKEA’s products – but not in the way that he would like to be (at all!).
You see, back in March this year, Kanye paid a visit to the IKEA headquarters and decided that he wanted to design furniture with the Swedish superstore. He was not very subtle with his intentions on Twitter:
He even threw in some of his drawings:
IKEA Australia got the hint, and courteously replied Kanye, but this is perhaps not how the 39-year-old entrepreneur imagined the partnership would go:
Yep, that’s the huge bed featured in Kanye’s Famous music video, and yep, he just got trolled big time by IKEA. If that was not hilarious enough, the rest of the Internet later jumped on the bandwagon and created their own Kanye-themed furniture designs. We have to say, there’s some serious talent out there (wink!). Here are some of our favourites:
KARDASH
Designed for one, can fit two.
REKANYER
Apparently this was created to glide nicely under the Kardash.
MIRRORYEEZY
Because everyone wants to look like Kanye.
HOLD MY LIQUOR
This is actually a pretty nifty IKEA hack!
KANYE HOLDING KANYE MUG
So that you can hold Kanye holding Kanye holding Kanye…
YEEZY FISHSTICKS
These are currently world-famous.
KANYE FRAMYE
He makes a pretty good generic photo frame model, eh?
WAKE UP, MR. WEST ALARM CLOCK
This one’s a little mean but lots funny!
THE ALL TYME COLLECTION MIRRORS
He has to pay homage to Beyonce even through furniture, of course.
KANYE SHOWER CURTAIN
We adore that IKEA swimhat
And finally, Kanye even gets his own logo:
