Kanye West Hooks Up With Roxy Music's Bryan Ferry In Paris

January 26, 2009
Kanye West Hooks Up With Roxy Music's Bryan Ferry In ParisUS rapper Kanye West posed for photos alongside Roxy Music's Bryan Ferry at Paris Fashion Week today (January 26th).

The rapper, who arrived in the French capital last week to launch his trainer collaboration with Louis Vuitton, met Ferry following fashion house Lanvin's catwalk show.

West later moved onto the unveiling of Dior Homme's fall collection, where he sat alongside Lily Allen and met Christian Dior designer Karl Largerfield.

Writing on his blog about the encounter, West described Largerfield as "really cool".

As previously reported, West published a video on his blog yesterday (January 25th) in which he joked that fans should call him Martin ‘Louis’ The King Jr. in future.

The rapper said he had been “forced” to adopt a new pseudonym following the successful launch of his Louis Vuitton trainers.

West's creation for the fashion house, which is part of an extensive line of trainers, won high praise from the fashion world.
