Kanye West Shows Up At Son’s Basketball Game In A Jason Voorhees Inspired Mask
West brought a touch of horror to a family event in Los Angeles by donning a hockey mask reminiscent of the famous fictional horror movie character Jason Voorhees. Voorhees is the iconic villain from the Friday the 13th series.
Choosing this chilling accessory at his son Saint’s basketball game, West appeared in a black leather jacket and faded denim.
The “Gold Digger” rapper had previously made headlines when he arrived at another of Saint’s basketball games with a “666” license plate on his Land Rover.
At the time, he donned a black T-shirt, distressed jeans, and chunky white boots. He completed his outfit with diamond accessories and multiple chains.
At the basketball game, West engaged in a brief conversation with his ex-wife, SKIMS founder Kim Kardashian, before taking a seat to watch eight-year-old Saint play.

Kanye West Apologizes For Anti-Semitic Lyrics In ‘Vulture’
West’s upcoming album “Vultures,” a collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign, faces controversy due to the title track’s offensive lyrics. The song includes lines like, “How [am I] anti-Semitic? I just f—– a Jewish b—-,” drawing criticism from Jewish organizations.
In response, West allegedly recorded a 40-minute public apology, influenced by his partner Censori. His previous apology, written in Hebrew, came after a series of offensive incidents, including anti-Semitic remarks in Dubai and praise for Hitler in Las Vegas.
Sources who spoke to the Daily Mail claimed Censori, concerned for their safety, pressured West to apologize.
“Kanye was pressured by Bianca to make this video because she was extremely worried that he was putting their safety at risk,” the insider said. “They have had threats, and her friends have expressed their fear in several text messages to her.”
The 29-year-old model and architect was allegedly worried that a “Jewish extremist” would hurt her and West if he continued making anti-Semitic remarks.
