Kanye West may or may not be heading to jail after being videotaped and photographed assaulting a member of the paparazzi but what is known is that no matter what happens….Cher has his back.
Following Kanye’s scuffle with an overzealous photographer at LAX airport, Cher took to her personal Twitter account to 1. voice her support for Kanye West and 2. spew some vitriol towards paparazzi at large (and 3. remind you she’s Cher): She wrote on twitter,”DEAR KANYE,THANK U,4 TRASHING THOSE LOATHSOME PARASITES,WHO STEAL OUR MOST PRECIOUS GIFTS,”TIME & PRIVACY”WE CAN NEVER GET THOSE BACK!”
On the surface this seems like an odd union but Cher has a documented history of being anti-paparazzi. In a recent June interview, Cher said celebrities are “screwed” when it comes to maintaining privacy during the age of the paparazzi.
Meanwhile according to a statement issued by Los Angeles Airport Police Kanye may have to worry about more than just a financial lawsuit. The Airport Police confirmed that the incident was reported to the LAPD.
“A police report was taken by the Los Angeles Police Department and the investigation is ongoing,” read the statement.
A TMZ report says the matter has been sent to the Robbery Homicide Unit where a file is being put together, and the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office may seek a felony attempted robbery prosecution in the case.
