Kanye West flies to Moscow for private stay amid ‘financial crisis’; Russian fans gather outside hotel chanting his name

Kanye West’s recent move has shocked many, especially in the US. The American rapper is reported to have arrived in Moscow in what is a potentially controversial visit. However, he has not yet made a public appearance. If confirmed, he will be the first major US celebrity to set foot in Russia since the war in Ukraine began. Footage shows thrilled Russian fans chanting Ye’s name outside the luxury hotel where he is believed to be staying.

Kanye West has arrived in Moscow

Music producer Yana Rudkovskaya shared on social media, “Kanye West is already in Moscow! This is great news! To be right in the heart of the capital!” She expressed her hopes for a concert at the Luzhniki Stadium. She also posted a short video showing West back in his usual loose clothing as he walks into a room, with security guards behind him.

Rudkovskaya previously claimed that the Vulture rapper would fly to Moscow for his scheduled concert in the autumn. However, there has been no official confirmation yet. According to CNN, she now said, “According to my information, tomorrow he and the team will go to see Luzhniki (Stadium).” Meanwhile, the news outlet confirmed that no such concert is scheduled at his venue in Luzhniki Stadium.

According to CNN, the general director of Talent Concert International told TASS, “The information that Kanye West may hold his concert in Moscow is propaganda and fake.”

Russia-based outlet Moskvichka Showbiz said Kanye’s visit was not for a concert but to celebrate the birthday of Russian designer Gosha Rubchinskiy. A video has also reportedly surfaced showing him in the Moscow metro.

Russian fans wait for Kanye West outside hotel

Several videos of fans waiting outside Kanye’s hotel in Moscow have surfaced on the internet, showing them chanting Kanye’s name and waiting for almost 6 hours to catch a glimpse of Ye. While his wife Bianca Sensari who mostly accompanies him on his international trips was not seen, Ye’s visit to the Russian capital comes at a time when most international stars have boycotted the country due to the ongoing conflict with Ukraine.

The trip to Russia comes at a time when reports emerged a few days ago that Kanye is facing a financial crisis after major brands cut ties with him amid the growing controversy. The report also suggests that he has approached his ex-wife Kim Kardashian for help. A source had earlier told InTouch, “Kanye is spending his savings at an alarming rate and it’s starting to have a very real impact on his bank balance.”

“He still has some money coming in, but since he lost that deal with Adidas, his net worth has dropped by several zeros,” he added.
