Kanye West Is the Abominable Snowman We Deserve

No one is sure how or why Kanye dressed like an abominable snowman last night in Atlantic City. Seriously, Kanye dressed in an all-white costume complete with scary mask last night for his show at Revel in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Complex, Oh No They Didn't, and Consequence of Sound are all struggling to explain why Kanye dressed the way he did. It's not offensive or anything. Like most of Kanye's style decisions, it's just weird. The man has entered the zone where nothing he wears can surprise us anymore. His latest bloggable meme outfit was a leather skirt he wore for the December 12 Hurricane Sandy benefit
