Gold Kanye Statue will make you pee in fear

Of COURSE I love this.  How can you not?  Ahead of Oscars weekend, a gold-painted statue $depicting Kanye West as Christ on the cross popped up yesterday near the Dolby Theater in
Hollywood where the Oscars are held.

Complete with thorn crown, nailed hands and, just as in biblical times, Yeezy sneakers.  The work is titled ‘False Idol’ and its by a local LA artist that goes by Plastic Jesus.  A third rate provocateur artist who finally got my attention. (which, clearly, is the goal of all artists)

 

Says PJ:

“He’s a genius at writing and producing but he’s not a God, and that’s where we put him. Until there’s an issue in his life or a hiccup in his career, then we crucify him…We’ve seen it before with people like Britney Spears or Lindsay Lohan. The same people who put him into a God-like place are the same yapping at his heels for a piece of flesh when something happens.”
