Kanye West has been desperately trying to stage an arena tour for his joint album with Ty Dolla $ign, "Vultures II," without much success [click here if you missed that].
Now Ye has been denied his ambitious attempt at staging shows on the sites of the seven wonders of the world...
From The Sun
The U.S. Sun has already reported that the controversial rapper's recent efforts to organize concerts in Europe, South America, the Middle East, and Asia have all ended in failure.
Insiders even claim he's trying to buy land to stage his own festivals.
And now, according to two well-placed sources, Ye has been advised to abandon ridiculously ambitious plans to perform at all seven wonders of the world sites, such as the Great Wall of China and India's Taj Mahal.
The 46-year-old rapper, who has faced widespread criticism and lost sponsorships following an online rant about Jesus and Hitler, was reportedly prepared to offer up to $6 million to secure these locations, say the insiders.
However, UNESCO, the governing body that protects the prestigious sites, and various cultural agencies swiftly rejected these "insane" proposals, with one individual who has worked for over 15 years in managing and conserving world heritage sites deeming the offers "impossible to accept."
"Kanye is a superstar and loves to undertake grand, unconventional endeavors, but requests of this nature are simply unfeasible," remarked a UNESCO consultant.
"Imagine staging a show or event at the Colosseum in Rome? Or at the Taj Mahal in India? Or even at Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro? It would be utter chaos. These sites are not intended for events of this nature."
