Accepted Earlier than Yeezy.com Went Full Nazi
Revealed
Kanye West pulled some very costly, very antisemitic wool over the eyes of FOX when he bought his Tremendous Bowl Sunday TV advert … TMZ has discovered.

Sources with direct information inform us FOX really authorised the advert Friday to air Sunday in 3 markets — L.A., Philly and Atlanta — however that course of was purely primarily based on 2 issues … the content material of the advert, and the web site it was selling, yeezy.com.
We’re advised the video of Ye — sitting in a dental chair speaking about his new grill and saying nothing else, however “Umm” time and again — handed muster with FOX, and once they checked his web site Friday there was nothing offensive on it … simply regular Yeezy athletic and athleisure gear.
In some unspecified time in the future on Sunday, although, he lowered the location choices to only one merchandise … a white T-shirt with a giant swastika on the chest.
The actual fact Ye was spewing all kinds of hate on social media late final week didn’t come into play — we’re advised FOX authorised the advert purely on the idea of its content material.
Our sources say Ye purchased the spot — which price him $8 million — by a third-party promoting company. It is unclear when he made the acquisition or when he shot it, however we’re advised it is generally the company’s job to vet the shoppers it is pitching to networks.
