Kanye & Amber Serve The Homeless

In an act of goodwill, Kanye and his boo volunteered at a homeless shelter this weekend in Los Angeles.
For ‘Ye, the deed was self rewarding. “It’s just important [to give back] when you’re very blessed. [It’s nice] to spread your blessings and take time out, especially during the holidays to appreciate people who never get that appreciation,” he said. “It makes me feel really good to come out here, [with] my family, and I just thank y’all [the Los Angeles Mission] for allowing us to be apart of this.”
Spotted: HHNM via The HHC thru The Boombox
Good Look.
It’s only sort of a good look. It’s good to give back, sure…
But why is dude wearing stunna shades in a homeless soup kitchen?
That’s just obnoxious. Flat out.
^
damn, dude just cant win, huh?
Nothing wrong with the shades. I don’t think homeless people have time to investigate the brand of someone’s shades, celebrity or not. I’m sure they were focused on the deed.
ha… word though… we need to institute a “NO STUNNAS” day in hip-hop.
Why the hell is the bald ex-stripper wearing a hair net?…She better off rocking a BDotTM Limited Edition Wave cap if she wanna be all clean and sanitary.
Maybe the shades are a part of his disguise! Ooohh!!!

yea i cosign wordlush
he dont have to dress down becuz that might be the most simplest cheap thing he have in his closet but it is true why are you wearing glasses thats worth more than all of them people earned in a year then its like why are you taking pictures
I hate when artist do stuff like this and they invite the press or they take pics of the event its like its for charity especially this situation by him bloggin and taking pics of this it just shows he is lookin to benefit more than the homeless people do
50 cent said this and he told the truth like if you doing stuff for the needy then you shouldnt expect anything bacc you should do that coming from your heart not thinkin about how its going to help your situation
I just find it funny becuz this dude is like Anti Paparazzi breaking Cameras when hes in front of hollywood hot spots where people who arent celebrities get their pics taken and he just flips out but when its showing him feeding the homeless he dont mind all the pics
like me if i was a celebrity i couldnt take no pics of myself in a homeless shelter Becuz I cant gain positive notieriety off my people doing bad like how do you gain something from somebody doing bad
It takes me bacc to last new years when Diddy was supposedly suppose to give out I-pods to the homeless with his music on there I guess he seen the response from the media and didnt act on that LOL but it still wow how the fucc are you going to try and promote yourself to the homeless
Damn Amber is so fuckin fine.
@Will
Are you fucking stupid? That pic is obviously from a camera phone probably from a fan that asked him. If he had said no then you’d be calling him an asshole for not posing for a fan. Just fucking relax I’m sure the people there were a little more concerned about the meal he was serving up then the glasses on his face.
The shades are definitely not a smart move.
Regardless though, he’s doing a good thing. It’s a good deed whether the cameras are there or not. And him taking pictures publicizes the organization(The Los Angeles Mission) and brings more attention to their cause.
Ya’ll really hating on the shades? damn..
people always judging stfu
hood shit Ye
Dude can’t make one move without someone criticizing something. Shades and all dude contributed more then I(and probably most of the people sayin shit) did. Instead of saying damn “Kanye setting a good example” it’s “Why that nigga wearing them shades, why he taking pictures”. Maybe next time Ye should stay his ass at home.
Damn Kanye cant win for shit. Ngas talkn bout his shades? smh
Pretty sure no one gave s shit about the shades except yalll lmao

If there was paparazzi there your gonna want shades cus they camera flashes bright as hell… in the end Kanye did somethin good; why erryone gettin upset at tha shades?
Them niggas look like clowns. Is Kanye posin’ for a photo shoot or some shit. Is he makin’ pop culture history in this pic? When someone does something, there is also an angle. These niggas just want some good PR, like damn. Why you gonna tell the world you’re giving? Guility conscience?
amber rose in a hair net?
good to see that,
BUT A KANYE / JAY / G.O.O.D ROC NATION / FONDATION
will be better to help those people for the next damn crazy years
ps: don’t blame yeezy to do that, even with gucci & lv clothes on him.
peace
The reason people have a negative reaction is not just in the shades (which are a bad move) but also because what you see in this picture is posing. Three of them are posing for a picture. This isn’t a picture someone took on-the-fly where you can see them working, but a pic of them standing there like some models or something. Now that’s what makes this fake, and a publicity stunt. They wanted you to clearly see their faces, cuz if it was a pic of them giving bread the angle might not be right, then photoshop dudes would have to work hard to make it right. At the end of the day charity is something you do because you want to, not for publicity, and if you do it for the wrong reasons like them, people will recognize and criticise.
@ sideshow raheem dude dont need to be taking no fliccs if he has turned down taking pics before and broke niggas camera he couldve been like maybe after we get done feeding these people but rite now aint a good time
this is like if Paris Hilton was feeding the homeless and all we see is her smiling with prada and shit on and the lil dog in her right arm yall would lynch that lil white girl if this was her but since its kanye naw everybody hating nobody is hating
all we saying is why the fucc are taking pics when you suppose to be handing out food my nig and why are you wearing shades when its winter in LA and you are inside Its not like the nigga at the Grammys or some shit more than half the motherfuccas he feeding dont even know who he is you think they going to be whipping out they samsungs flashing pics of that Nigga LOL c’mon son what he did was a good thing but it just look like it wasnt in good motives posting and blogging about the shit like he just gave away all his money to the negro college fund or some shit its people celebrities out there that do shit of this nature almost every week and they never go around talkin about it to get props and get pats on the bacc they just do it becuz its the right thing do no Blog And Twit Pics just going in there doing they job and thats it hell i bet if he gave dude an autograph or them glasses he wouldve been equally satisfied but the picture
@ Will
SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!! U WRITE LONG ASS BLOGS N DON’T BE SAYIN’ SHIT!!!! WHO GIVES A FUCK WUT HE WEARS!!!! WHO GIVES A FUCK HE TAKIN’ PICTURES!!!! WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME U FED THE HOMELESS?? GET A LIFE U DUMB FUCK!!!! GOOD SHIT KANYE!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
I’m not really hatin’ on the wearing of the shades… I got more of an issue with the fact that he was wearin’ em indoors on a fukkin’ winter day…
Oh wait… it was in L.A. Nevermind! Good deed, ‘Ye.
-D!
@WIll
As you can see here: http://tweetphoto.com/7383057 the pic WAS taken by a fan who was also helping out that day. The bottom line is Kanye obviously wans’t seeking publicity if he wanted that he could have just had some of his people call all the various news outlets and there would be a lot more then this one picture floating around. Get off the dudes nuts I’m sure Ye has done a lot more to help people out there struggling then you.
@sideshow raheem
who do nuts have to do with ..im not even going to go into that yall niggas is homo everytime somebody say some shit yall dont agree with yall go into these homo raves succ a dicc get off his nuts nigga get a Life thats a Mac Diesel too i dont understand that how can I be hating on a nigga in one post and the next im on a nigga nuts like I said you youngstas these days Cuz im not even going to waste anymore time this comment posting shit is getting old anyway
better question for people who have an issue with him wearing the shades. what did you do to give back?
@Will
LOL, dude your represent everything thats wrong with internet culture. It’s pretty obvious Kanye tried to do something nice but people like you(fucktards) go out of your way to point out something meaningless and make a negative comment. Nobody at the event cared what the fuck that nigga was wearing only somebody swinging on his nuts would give a fuck so don’t get mad at me for pointing it out.
your not worth it no more im no going to this ethuggin shit you represent whats wrong with kids these days nigga when all you can do is sit your overweight ass at a computerdesk and go bacc n forth about another man on another mans nuts as a metaphors
You niggas thats how you are argue somebody dont agree with you and you response is something about another males privates parts
this is an argument between niggas like you
Raheem :”I like Orange”
Will:”I like red i thinks better than Orange becuz it comes from red”
Raheem :”Nigga Succ a Dicc”
Like wtf is wrong with you nigga im on a nigga nuts buts thats your idea of winning an argument is for diccs to come out yo mouth LOL Nigga Im done
it’s just a good deed…..the fuck?!!!!
i take it busy people dont get much sleep, id put on shades any time i get photographed if i looked all fuckd up

@Will
First off I’m not a kid I have a full time job and a mortgage, second you the nigga sitting at home taking shit about somebody who did something positive while you did NOTHING. BTW, you still haven’t responded to any of my actual arguments probably because you know you’re dead wrong….so I guess uh ”Nigga Succ a Dicc”!……..lmao
@ Nathaniel

DON’T HATE ON MY OPiNION!!!!
@sideshowRaheem PLEASE EVERYONE LOOK AT THE PHOTO CAPTION PER SIDESHOWS POST “Me, Amber, and Kanye Thanks @PR_Mari for bringing us out 2 feed the homeless a very rewarding and humbling experience”
IF YOU LOOK UP http://WWW.TWITTER.COM/PR_MARI YOU WILL FIND THE REAL ANSWER TO THIS…..SHE IS A PR PERSON!!! WTF? YOU GAVE THE LINK! DONT YOU SEE THROUGH IT? BULLISH ON BOTH OF THEIR PARTS.
This is what kills me about the internet. Muhfuckas be arguing over the dumbest shit out like it makes a difference. Lets be honest, alot of celebrities do a whole bunch of extra shit when it comes to the holidays, just like so many of these corporations for PR. How many of you actually donated time for a worthy cause? If I was Ye’ I would prally be fuxin the dog shit out of amber rose instead of being at a shelter trying to please the blog god for their worthy praises. I think he really wanted to do the right thing. Aint this the first holiday without his moms tho?
OK…So now Kanye’s trying to pretend like a “Seasonal” Saint.
I guess it is news for Kanye of all people to be doing something like this. It still doesn’t shime any light on his tarnished and self-elevated ego.
This was abviously more of an act of PR rather than an act of Good Will. When else has Kanye ever shown any Good or Willing intentions toward anyone in need? Up until this most recent PR attempt, he’s made it so very crystal clear that he is much too good for this?
And besides that, there are plenty of “Normal” people that give to the needy everyday. (celebrities & non-celebrities)
Homeless shelters are openevery day. People are hungry and cold every day. There are plenty of charities that are open to accepting random acts of Sincere Good Will from every day people everyday.
Holiday Season “Goodwill” Bullshit is exactly that….Goodwill Bullshit!!
And poor Amber. She’s got to be a pretty good friend to stand by him and his egotistical bullshit.
She’s either smart as hell and in it for the money, or she’s a good friend that feels sorry for his soul and is still trying to hold a faithful torch for his crazy ass…
This dude is a trip.
He’s a disgrace to his mother (may she rest in peace), his family, his friends, his girl and his fans, (whats left of them). Hell, for that matter, He’s a disgrace to himself.
He just annoys the hell out of me!!
He probably annoy’s the hell out of himself while he’s sleepless and thinking about all of the blessings he’s been given and how he abuses them and takes them for granted.
Kanye is such a waste!!
Ummmm…the Kanye West Foundation was around before the incident of Sept. ’09. Has any of the work related to that gotten extensive internet discussion? Don’t think so.
smh@ regina
how do you know whats on that man’s heart??
wtf is wrong with people???
once again the internet provides a venue for folk to showcase how miserable their life is
man kanyes publicist told him to do this to make up for taylor swift so obvious man
Bottom line, if you sat in your house and did nothing while Kanye was out feeding the homeless you have no right to judge that man.
id raw amber rose so bad damn it
@sideshowRaheem:
So one act of kindness after a year’s worth of douchebaggery and now he gets a pass? STFU with that stupid shit.
@anon1:
your wisdom is unparalleled. thanks for the wise words. we can never do enough in the way of undervaluing random acts of kindness like this. keep up the good work.
yall niggas talk to much…good loook…good deed…fine girly
