Kanye West told an audience that he had contemplated suicide during a Los Angeles premiere screening of his “Runaway” short film.
“There were times that I contemplated suicide,” Yeezy told the crowd. “I will not give up on life again.”
Don’t worry Kanye! It gets better.
Yahoo News was at the premiere and gives a thorough description of the film.
After a prelude featuring narration from rapper Nicki Minaj, West’s character, Griffin, is seen driving a black MTX Tatra supercar down a country road. Lying next to a hole in the pavement is a phoenix fallen to Earth, played by model Selita Ebanks in pink, gray and brown feathers.
He takes her home and offers this advice: “First rule in this world, baby: Don’t pay attention to anything you see on the news.”
The phoenix sits on a lawn with a deer, rabbit and sheep, then joins West at a private parade featuring fireworks, a marching band and a float depicting Michael Jackson.
Playing over those visuals are West’s next single, “All of the Lights,” which he said features Elton John on piano and an all-star chorus including Alicia Keys, Rihanna, Fergie and John Legend.
Ballerinas in black tutus perform in a scene featuring his current single, “Runaway.” When the tune ended, there was applause from both the on-screen and live audience.
Kanye’s new album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, drops November 22nd.
