Kanye West Spends Over $50,000 on Lavish Paris Dinner Amid Controversy
Kanye West recently hosted an extravagant dinner party in Paris, spending over $50,000 to
entertain friends and associates. The rapper, known for his lavish lifestyle, took a break from
ongoing legal issues and controversies in the United States to enjoy Paris Fashion Week.
The dinner party took place in an exclusive apartment in the Quartier Saint Germain des Pres, with
around 30 guests including friends, French collaborators, and industry contacts. According to an
insider who spoke to The U.S. Sun, Kanye spared no expense, spending over $40,000 on fine wine
alone. The impressive wine selection included five bottles of Pinot Noir at $3,950 each, ten $1,000
bottles of Bordeaux, and $7,440 worth of Dom Perignon champagne, along with six bottles of
Cristal Brut.
The food was equally lavish, featuring 12 portions of Caviar Petrossian costing $320 per 30 grams, $3,100 of smoked salmon, and $1,340 of French-reared steak. The insider revealed that Kanye “always asks for the top meats and products” when in Paris and has a reputation for making excessive demands.
While Kanye enjoyed his time in Paris, controversy continued to brew in the United States. His former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, has filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against him, claiming he demanded she delete her OnlyFans account for $1 million and sent her inappropriate messages. Kanye’s legal team has dismissed the allegations as “baseless,” and sources indicate he plans to file a lawsuit against Pisciotta, accusing her of blackmail and extortion.
Kanye has also faced professional setbacks, with concert organizers around the world reportedly snubbing him due to his controversial internet rants about Jesus and Hitler. Despite these challenges, he remains undeterred, focusing on enjoying life and hosting lavish events.
Kanye’s penchant for extravagance is well-documented. The planner who organized the Paris dinner shared that Kanye “isn’t afraid to spend tons of money on food and drink” and “loves Paris and French cuisine.” The source added, “He is the kind of person that we love. He doesn’t count how much he spends, as long as everyone involved has a great time.”
This isn’t the first time Kanye has splurged on fine dining experiences. The insider recalled an occasion when Kanye paid legendary Italian chef Massimo Bottura $150,000 to host a party in Italy.
Despite the controversies and legal battles, Kanye’s Paris dinner party was a night to remember for his guests. The U.S. Sun reached out to Kanye’s representatives for comment but did not receive an immediate response. As the legal issues unfold back in the United States, Kanye seems determined to live life on his own terms, continuing to make headlines with his extravagant lifestyle and bold choices.
