Kanye West Accused of Threatening Tyson Beckford In A Restroom

Kanye West remains one of the most iconic and influential rappers in the Hip-Hop world right now and he also has a very good mine when it comes to being a businessman, as the rapper has built his own empire.

However, this doesn’t mean Kanye West doesn’t have his fair share of controversies and accusations. While speaking on the Instagram show “Let’s Go Live! with Sharon Carpenter”, American model Tyson Beckford revealed that Kanye West sent a member of his entourage after Beckford.

As the story goes, it took place in 2018 at Ralph Lauren’s 50th-anniversary party. A few months before that, Beckford had beef with West’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian as he accused her of getting plastic surgery, which led to Kardashian insinuating that Beckford was a homosexual.

“I was standing in the middle of Oprah Winfrey and Hillary Clinton. He [Kanye] was on the other side of the table, and when I tried to make eye contact with him, he wouldn’t look at me.”

When Beckford went to the restroom at the party, he claimed that West sent in a member of his entourage after him in order to threaten him. Beckford recalled telling the man,” I suggest you get out of this bathroom before I wipe you all over the wall.”

“I’m like, ‘You did not want no smoke. I had on my tuxedo. I would have undone my tie and got into it if you wanted to, but you didn’t. I think you didn’t realize how big I was.”

Beckford further claimed that West called him out ‘two weeks’ later in an Instagram video. With Kanye West and Kim Kardashian going through their personal trouble thanks to their ongoing divorce case, it is unlikely West will even care about the accusation made by Beckford.
