Kanye West is taking his generosity to new heights, announcing that his next Yeezy fashion show will benefit the homeless.
According to a TMZ report published on Thursday, January 27, the rapper plans to use homeless individuals to model apparel from his new Skid Row Fashion Week collaboration in an upcoming runway event.
The idea would try to give homeless persons in Los Angeles with jobs with the Skid Row firm.
According to TMZ, the plot began when West met with David Sabastian, the founder of Skid Row Fashion Week, earlier this month and agreed to collaborate on an upcoming apparel line.
According to the story, both companies will donate revenues from the fashion event to the homeless population.
In other news, on Wednesday, January 26, a sculpture of NBA legend Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna “Gigi” Bryant was unveiled at the helicopter accident site where they and seven others died two years ago.
Gigi clutches her father’s hand as it rests on her shoulder in the bronze statue, which depicts Kobe and Gigi wearing basketball uniforms and sharing a loving glance.
Fans who hiked the 2.1km to pay their respects to the sporting star were greeted by sculptor Dan Medina, who was on hand to greet them.
Medina said: “This is all on my own, no one asked me to do it.”
“On this day, the second anniversary of the accident, I decided to bring it up from sunrise to sunset and create a bit of a healing process for fans,” he said.
The names of all nine victims of the early morning crash on Jan 26, 2020 are engraved on the statue’s steel pedestal.
There was an inscription of Bryant’s popular quote: “Heroes come and go, but legends are forever.”
