We Are Celebrities Not Illuminati – Kanye West

For as long as I can remember there has been this theory that most American celebrities are Illuminati – Well, Kanye West has laughed off that notion as totally ridiculous and untrue – He revealed this, in an interview in the new edition of PAPER Magazine – West, spoke out about music streaming service Tidal, insisting that the site is not part of a conspiratorial shadow government known as the Illuminati.

In his interview, the rapper cum desgner said that he heard a comment likening the Tidal relaunch press conference to the Illuminati.
Jay Z acquired Swedish music streaming company Aspiro, in March for $56 million, and relaunched its Tidal streaming service with a star-studded press conference in New York. Stars like Beyoncé, Nicki Minaj, Jack White, Madonna and Daft Punk all showed up to support the new streaming site.
However, some folks have dubbed the press conference as a meeting of the Illuminati, even Twitter users joked that it was “the closest we are getting to an Illuminati meet with our faves.”
West, reacting to this said:

“if there was actually an Illuminati, it would be more like the energy companies.” He goes on to say that musicians are merely “pinpointed as decoys for people who really run the world. I’m tired of people pinpointing musicians as the Illuminati. That’s ridiculous. We don’t run anything; we’re celebrities.”
