Fans cannot believe they saw Kanye West in Knives Out

While James Bond actor Daniel Craig already stole the show in Knives Out, some fans spotted Kanye West in the movie. If watched carefully, one can see a painting in the background in a scene about a pseudo-Elon Musk character in the film. It is of none other than the Donda singer. While the sets are supposed to have classic-era paintings, they are all apparently a piece of fiction.

Ye’s painting seems to have a torch in one hand, as he is dressed in periodic clothes, with a drape on one arm. While it has left people in splits, fans have been making hilarious ideas depicting his painting. While controversies surrounding West were likely not as rampant during the making of the movie, it is highly unlikely that he will be getting a platform or representation in near future.

While some are also criticizing the flick for giving Ye more recognition and platform. The rapper has taken social media by storm due to his controversial statements. Many people want him banned from any coverage. But the shooting was most probably wrapped before Ye made anti-Semitic comments.
