Kanye West Storms Out Of Explosive Piers Morgan Interview: Here’s Why

The rapper abruptly ended the conversation after clashing with the host over antisemitism, media bias — and a follower count misquote.

Los Angeles | May 6, 2025 —
Kanye West, now known as Ye, once again walked out of an interview — this time during a heated segment on Piers Morgan Uncensored. The rapper, appearing remotely from Mallorca, stormed off after a contentious exchange that began with criticism of his public image and escalated over a minor numerical error: the host quoted his X (formerly Twitter) follower count incorrectly.

Piers Morgan opened the segment by referencing West’s declining reputation in recent years, prompting the rapper to immediately push back. What followed was a tense, sometimes incoherent, back-and-forth that took an unexpected turn when Morgan mentioned West’s follower count as “32 million.”

“That’s 33.3 million — don’t take inches off my d—k,” Ye snapped, accusing Morgan of deliberate bias and disrespect.

From Debate to Departure

The Grammy-winning artist railed against “media hate” and claimed his artistic contributions were overlooked, eventually tearing off his mic and leaving the interview mid-stream.

Morgan, visibly unfazed, later described Ye as a “big baby” and “massive d–k” in a follow-up post on Instagram. He also said he planned to confront West over his repeated antisemitic statements and praise of Adolf Hitler.

“This was him right before he stomped off like a big baby before I could ask why he’s become a vile, Hitler-loving, Nazi-slathering, anti-Semitic p–k,” Morgan wrote.

History of Conflict

This isn’t the first time Ye has clashed with Morgan. In a previous interview, he also refused to apologise for inflammatory remarks. Morgan has repeatedly criticised Ye for breaching X’s content policies while continuing to enjoy platform access.

“I don’t think anyone holds him to account,” Morgan said. “He deliberately breaks all of X’s rules and gets away with it.”

Unanswered Questions

While West didn’t stay long enough to address deeper concerns, including his repeated attacks on Jewish communities online, Morgan said he has no regrets about the invitation.

“I wanted to hold him accountable for the hate he spreads,” he said, signing off by calling the rapper a “snivelling little coward.”
