Kanye West 'no longer billionaire' after Adidas drop partnership over antisemitic comments
Kanye West is no longer a billionaire after several companies cut ties with him after he made antisemitic comments, according to Forbes.
Adidas ended their partnership with the rapper, 45, on 25 October after he claimed in a since-deleted interview with the Drink Champs podcast that he could make antisemitic comments and he would still have the sports brand's support.
