Kim Kardashian West is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful women in the world and her husband Kanye West would be the first person to vouch for that. However, even this knowledge cannot get a mere mortal such as Ye to resist the raw sexuality, ethereal beauty and unparalleled talent of Rihanna. 

A video clip of Kim and Kanye from the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards has gone viral across social media platforms leaving their fans in splits. In the clip, Yeezy can be seeing gawking at Riri, before getting caught by his gorgeous wife Kim K - awkward! The queen of reality TV was busy snapchatting (as one does during a performance by Rihanna) when she spotted her husband staring dreamily at the women on the stage. 

She abruptly stopped recording, because if you don't keep your man in check during these moments, when else you do it? The internet has been going berserk since the video went public, with one stating, "see how fast Kim stoppped snapchatting when she caught Kanye eying up rihanna 😂😂 [sic]" and another commenting, "Find someone who looks at you the way Kanye looks at Rihanna 💜 [sic]"  



We are glad to see Kanye could see the other stars during the night because all anyone could talk about after the night of 2016 MTV VMAs was the speech Ye gave announcing his intent to run for President in 2020. Of course, he has since retracted the statements, but his actions have not been any less confusing in the recent days.  

He has turned into a very vocal ally of President Trump, which has, of course, upset many black Americans who are tired of the seemingly racist regime of the current president. He showed off his signed "Make America Great Again" cap, which triggered many. He also went on to suggest that slavery was a choice. To say his fans were not amused would be an understatement. 

Then again, Kanye has been an artist who has quite a few controversies to his name and the one who at oftentimes pushed the boundaries of what is considered normal and other times because he is Kanye f*****g West.  

Remember when he grabbed the microphone from the hands of a young and innocent Taylor Swift at the 2015 VMAs, because he thought Beyoncé should have won the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award? Well, that is Kanye for you. 

At least we can rest assured in the knowledge that if you want Kanye to pay attention all you have got to do is bring Rihanna into the room.
