The ‘Jesus Walks’ rapper is no longer scheduled to appear at the April 3 music awards due to his “online touching behavior,” an insider told The Blast.

The show will be hosted by Trevor Noah, who was targeted by Kanye with harsh racist criticism and was subsequently banned from Instagram for at least 24 hours earlier this week.

The news outlet claims that the decision was made in part because of fears that the couple could fight at the celebrity party.

His racial slur came after standup accused Kanye of stalking his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, with whom he has North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two, since she filed for divorce. .

Speaking on The Daily Show, Trevor said: “I’ll be honest with you – I see in this situation a woman who wants to live her life without being harassed by an ex-boyfriend, ex-husband or ex-whatever.

We’re sorry, but this video couldn’t be loaded.

“You can feel sorry for Kim because she is rich and famous because she appropriates black culture… but what she goes through is horrifying to watch and sheds light on what many women go through when they decide to leave.”

Rapper “Stronger” also insulted the boyfriend of his ex-wife Pete Davidson on the app.

A Meta spokesperson told TMZ that the 44-year-old star will not be allowed to post, comment or send direct messages – and more – on the app.

They explained that they would take additional measures if necessary.

Trevor tried to make amends with Kanye, who legally changed his name to Ye.

The 38-year-old star commented on the insulting post, “You are an integral part of my life, Ye.

“That’s why my heart breaks when I see you like this. I don’t care if you support Trump, and I don’t care if you fry Pete. However, I care when I see you on a path dangerously close to danger and pain.

“Never forget that the biggest ploy the racists ever played with blacks was to teach us to rob each other of our blackness whenever we disagree. Deceiving us so that we would be divided into fragments, so that we would never unite into a mighty rod.
