Kanye West has been suspended from Instagram for 24 hours after stalking Kim Kardashian, Pete Davidson and Trevor Noah on the social network, Page Six has confirmed.
A spokesperson for the meta community has informed us that the rapper’s recent posts violate the company’s policy on hate speech, bullying, and harassment. He cannot post, comment or send private messages for 24 hours.
We were also told that if West, 44, continues to break the rules, the company will take additional action.
A rep for West did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
TMZ was the first to report West’s Instagram suspension.
After repeatedly attacking ex-wife Kardashian, 41, and her boyfriend, 28, Davidson, over the past few weeks, West most recently hurled a racist slur at 38-year-old Noah on Wednesday.

“Now all together … K-n-bya, my lord, k-n-bya, K-n-bya, my lord, K-n-bya, oooh, master of K-n-bya,” West signed a screenshot from Google search results, naming Noah “South African comedian”.
West taunted Noah by using the offensive slur “kn” to replace the original “Kumbaya” lyrics.
West’s offensive posts towards Noah came in response to the comedian discussing his dynamic with the Kardashians and Davidson on The Daily Show.
“Which [Kardashian is] it’s scary to watch and sheds light on what many women go through when they decide to leave,” Noah said on his Comedy Central series.
Noah compared West’s situation with the Kardashians to his own experiences of childhood abuse. He mentioned that people thought his mother, Patricia, was “exaggerating” before his stepfather shot her in the head. (Patricia survived an attempted murder.)
“As a society, we have to ask ourselves questions. Do we want to stand and watch a car accident when we thought we foresaw it coming? Noah asked on air.

A few days earlier, West had shared an angry video in which he accused Kardashian of intentionally keeping her four children — 8-year-old North, 6-year-old Saint, 4-year-old Chicago and 2-year-old Psalm — from him.
Kardashian previously denied West’s claims, writing on Instagram: “Please stop this story, you were here this morning to pick up the kids for school.”
The reality TV superstar, who was officially single earlier this month, began dating Saturday Night Live star Davidson last fall after she filed for divorce from West in February 2021.
She has since encouraged West to harass her online and post threatening messages about Davidson.
“Divorce is hard enough on our kids and Kanye’s obsession with trying to control and manipulate our situation in such a negative and public way only hurts everyone more,” Kardashian said in a statement in February.
