Kanye West’s ex Amber Rose has recalled her ‘unprofessional’ first meeting with the controversial rapper way back in 2008. The American model, 41, who would go on to date Ye, 47, for two-years before their messy 2010 split, revealed the smitten star flew her thousand of miles in a bid to meet her by offering her a role in a non-existent music video.
During an appearance on the Club Shay Shay podcast she spoke about her long history of working in the music industry alongside the likes of Chris Brown and Young Jeezy who she branded ‘very professional’. She then recalled how Kanye flew her from her home in New York to LA to appear in the video for his song Robocop, but despite filming never materialising she admitted, due to her still being so young, she failed to realise something wasn’t quite right. ‘A day goes by, then another day goes by and we are going out to dinners, we were doing everything but shooing the video!’, she said. Amber said due to her past experiences on sets, she had only brought a small number of clothing expecting to soon be heading home, but as the days rolled she was left without anything to wear before Kanye purchased her outfits.

The American model, who would go on to date Ye for two-years, revealed the smitten star flew her thousand of milesin a bid to meet her by offering her a role in a non existent music video (pictured in 2010) Amber joined Kanye as his date at the 2009 Grammy Awards, where he infamously interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech.
She said: ‘I was so green I didn’t realise that he really flew me out because he sew me in the video and thought I was hot and flew me out, but I didn’t know’. Elsewhere in the interview Amber revealed the moment the rapper reduced her to tears by ‘making her wear’ a revealing dress.
The host commented: ‘I think you did have one of those see-through dresses that Kanye put his wife in at one point in time.’ While Amber admitted: ‘Yes, I did. I cried. I remember crying. I was in like Italy or Paris or something and I remember crying and arguing with him and being like I don’t f****** want to wear this s***, I don’t wanna wear it.’ ‘[He said] You don’t understand, it’s fashion, I’m a genius. You know how he is. It’s like, okay, I still don’t wanna wear it but I went in wearing it, they ate me up on the internet.’ She added: ‘I was like oh my God, I really just don’t wanna do this’ and confirmed she would never wear something like that again.

The model admitted due to her still being so young she failed to realise something wasn’t quite right (pictured together 2009). Amber is thought to be referring to the moment she stepped out in an almost completely see-through distressed dress during Paris Fashion Week in 2010. Amber was later asked what she thought about the way Kanye’s wife Bianca Censori has been dressing, after she showed up to the Grammys red carpet in a completely see-through dress. The model revealed: ‘Kanye is for sure dressing her like that. Yeah, he did the same thing to me and Kim. It’s just who he is. ‘He wants other men to want his woman. That’s what he’s into, he likes that. He likes that men are drooling over his woman. That’s what he’s into. ‘He wants all his friends to want to f*** his girlfriend. He wants everybody that when you walk in a room, that his girlfriend or wife is the most desirable.’ Shannon then asked: ‘And you dressed like that because that’s what he wanted, you wanted to please your man?’ Amber Rose admitted: ‘I was young and I’m gonna tell Kanye now, when I’m that young it’s like okay, you’re buying me this stuff, I do look pretty and cool. ‘But if you look at old pictures of me when I’m dating Kanye but I’m out by myself, I have all his clothes on. ‘I have baggy jeans on, a T-shirt, a big jacket. I raided his closet when he wasn’t home. I would wear all his stuff because I used to hate to dress like a w****.

She was also asked what she thought about the way Kanye’s wife Bianca Censori has been dressing, after she showed up to the Grammys red carpet in a completely see-through dress ‘I used to hate it so I used to rebel when he wasn’t home and go in his closet. I’m in sweatpants usually with some Jordans on, maybe a little dad hat or something. I’m very casual.’ Amber also explained that the ‘𝓈ℯ𝓍y’ image that she had been pushed into while dating Kanye affected her even after their separation. ‘So when I was out on my own, without my first relationship that kind of brought me to the light, that’s what they wanted from me.’ She recalled, ‘I would have producers saying, “We want to do this video for MTV and we want you at the pool, with a bikini on, martini in your hand.”‘ And I’m like, “Ugh, I’m so not her.” Like, I’m so not her and I get what I come off as but I am so not her. And they’re like, “Well I guess you don’t want to do it then.”‘
