Kanye West shares 'Skete Davidson is dead' hoax

msn.com:

Kanye West has shared a fake newspaper cover which claims Pete Davidson is dead. The 'Stronger' rapper has not directly addressed his ex-wife Kim Kardashian's recent split from the 'Saturday Night Live' star - who he made multiple jibes at via his social media accounts in the early months of the former couple's relationship - but has targeted the 28-year-old comic with a cruel hoax.

The fake newspaper shared to his Instagram account had the headline: “Skete Davidson Dead at Age 28". Last month, Kanye pulled out of Rolling Loud Miami at short notice, with Kid Cudi stepping in to replace him as headliner.

However, during his set, the 41-year-old rapper walked off stage after repeatedly having objects thrown at him by the crowd, and Kanye also made reference to the incident in his post.

The bottom of the folded fake paper had a sub-heading which stated: “Kid Cudi meant to play funeral but fearful of bottle throwers. " In March, Kanye released a shocking animated music video for his song 'Eazy', in which he decapitated and buried Pete.
