Ralph Lauren took to their Twitter to post a backstage photograph of Kanye West meeting the American fashion God that is Ralph Lauren. The two met each other backstage at a runway show during New York Fashion Week this morning and Kanye looks like a kid on Christmas morning. If you don’t know just how much Kanye idolizes Ralph, you might need to re-watch Kanye’s infamous “It ain’t no Ralph tho” interview with Sway (also below). The respect is mutual though as Lauren made comments, during his Style.com interview, on Kanye’s “it ain’t Ralph tho” moment. “That’s very cool. Well, that’s great. If I were to cater to Kanye, he would know that I’m catering to him. The fact that I make what I make—he gets it. He gets the quality and he respects it. And I think that’s the key, why I work all the time is to do that. That’s the fun.” Check out the photo of the two below.

Showing a total lack of class, Amber Rose today took shots at her ex-boyfriend Kanye West’s wife Kim Kardashian-West on Twitter, over comments that were not even made from Kim herself. Less than an hour ago on Twitter, Amber Rose tweeted (which has since been deleted) to Khloe Kardashian “I’ll be that lil whore to support my family like ur older sister is a whore 2 support hers. We’re even,” referring to Kim’s sextape with singer Ray J and Khloe Kardashian’s recent comments about Rose. Khloe soon responded telling Rose, “well damn,I didn’t realize I called you a whore,” a tweet which has also since been deleted. A low blow to take shots at someone who didn’t instigate the beef in the first place (whether or not Khloe called Amber a whore), but we guess given all of Kanye and Kim’s recent success, it’s natural to be jealous. Check out some of the fan RTs of the original tweets below.
