Kanye West Loses His Luxury Vehicle In Embarrassing Scene After Diddy Backlash
recently suffered an embarrassing fail after his vehicle was reportedly seized in Los Angeles.
The controversial rapper has been on the receiving end of fans' wrath after he showed support for , who is on trial for sex trafficking and racketeering charges.
West appeared at the New York courthouse, where the case is ongoing. Now, days later, a six-figure asset was taken away with no explanation.
On Tuesday, West's custom Maybach vehicle was seized in the parking lot of the Château Marmont. The Donda Academy founder is a regular at the 5-star hotel where A-listers in Hollywood often reside.
Photos taken and shared online show the chrome-plated luxury vehicle being placed on the back of a tow truck and taken away. One hotel staff member could be seen standing by while the Maybach was being strapped onto the truck.
The reason behind the seizure remains unknown. However, the Daily Mail reports that the Château Marmont is known for having a limited parking space problem.
It could have been an illegal parking situation or a more serious issue, such as repossession of the luxury vehicle, which is reportedly worth around $450,000.
West's camp is yet to address the incident, and the towing company hasn't responded to requests for comments.
Hours after the incident, West received an unlikely visitor in the person of Christian Combs.
The son of disgraced rapper Diddy was photographed with his entourage outside the Château Marmont. Per the publication, the 27-year-old looked in good spirits, donning a red shirt with camouflage three-quarter shorts.
In one image, Christian was seen making a call, but West was not pictured during the meeting.
Amid his vocal support for the Bad Boys Records founder, Ye often offers public encouragement to Diddy's son. The pair seems to have formed a bond, sharing a hug outside the courthouse last week.
In the March 2025 song, "Lonely Roads Still Go To Sunshine," the incarcerated rapper appreciated West for his support, saying:
"I just wanna thank you so much for just taking care of my kids, man. 'Cause ain't nobody reach out to me."
West backed his support with action when he unexpectedly showed up at Diddy's sex trafficking trial last Friday.
Causing quite the scene, he arrived with Christian, dressed in an all-white ensemble and black sunglasses. Ye, as he is fondly called, even stopped to shake hands with a fan before heading inside the Manhattan federal courthouse.
When asked by reporters if he was there to support Diddy, the former husband of Kim Kardashian answered "yes." Unfortunately, West was restricted to watching the trial on a TV screen in one of the overflow rooms.
According to reports, the "Gold Digger" rapper wasn't listed among the approved names of Diddy's family and friends allowed to be in the trial. It seems that prompted him to leave the court less than an hour after his arrival.
West's unexpected appearance sparked backlash, with 50 Cent being one of the most vocal critics.
The "Candy Shop" rapper, known for his trolling expertise, shared an A.I. image mocking the Yeezy founder. Trying to imitate West's outfit, the doctored image showed 50 Cent in an all-white suit ensemble.
In the accompanying caption, 50 Cent took a jab at his colleague's wife, Bianca Censori, referencing the obscene outfit she wore to the Grammys.
"We are wearing white in honor of the freak offs. Damn Ye, you should have brought your dirty little wife with that Grammys outfit! @50centaction," it read.
Before West's New York appearance, he had been holed up at a high-end wellness facility in Mallorca, Spain, sources say.
As The Blast reported, the "Can't Tell Me Nothing" artist and Censori have been retreating at The Balance Rehab Clinic for a reported fee of $170,000 per week.
The luxury wellness center is described as "a safe haven where you can find recovery, peace, rest, and happiness" on its official website.
Insiders say the couple's stay is linked to a wrongful termination lawsuit filed against West by former employee Benjamin Provo.
"He's bleeding money and credibility," a source alleged. "He needs to prove to fans and the corporate partners he has left that he was off his rocker when spewing such filth and going to rehab seems like just what the doctor ordered – literally."

Orlando Bloom's Alleged Outburst About Katy Perry's 'Cringeworthy' Space Stunt
Things may be rockier than ever between and , as a new report claims the "Pirates of the Caribbean" actor found his fiancée's recent Blue Origin space flight "cringeworthy" and "embarrassing." The couple, who've been together since 2016 and share a four-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove, have faced relationship hurdles before, including a brief split in 2017 and a delayed wedding due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But recent signs point to deepening cracks in Orlando Boom's relationship with the "Dark Horse" singer. According to Daily Mail, the brutal comment came "in the middle of a fight" between the couple, with Orlando Bloom allegedly telling Perry the whole thing "looked ridiculous." "It hurt her feelings," an insider said. "Of course, she was hurt. Imagine going to space, motherf-cking space, and your partner isn't impressed." These latest claims come after insiders alleged that Orlando Bloom "did not approve" and never felt "going on the mission was a good idea." The actor reportedly anticipated the "Teenage Dream" singer would receive negative reactions. "He always thought it was a stupid idea, and she wouldn't get anything positive out of it," the source shared, noting that the 48-year-old ultimately became "frustrated." Katy Perry's brief but headline-making journey featured an all-female crew that included Perry, Lauren Sánchez, Gayle King, Aisha Bowe, Amanda Nguyen, and Kerianne Flynn. Lasting approximately 11 minutes, the flight reached an altitude of 100 kilometers, crossing the Kármán line, which marks the boundary between Earth's atmosphere and outer space. During the mission, Katy Perry sang "What a Wonderful World" and held up a sheet of paper featuring the set list for her new tour. While the spectacle sparked mixed reactions, some labeling it a celebrity-driven stunt, others hailed it as a historic moment for female representation in space travel. The pop star had reportedly hoped her longtime partner would be more supportive of the monumental experience. Instead, sources claim Perry is now "struggling to accept" that Bloom plans to attend the Italy wedding of Blue Origin's own Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez, the very people who made her spaceflight possible, without her. "They're already spiraling," the source said. "And now the wedding is another thing that they have to fight about." Katy Perry will be absent from the lavish Italian nuptials due to her commitments on the road with her "Lifetimes" tour. But insiders allege Orlando Bloom's eagerness to attend without her "feels like a 'f-ck you' to her," especially since he's not particularly close with Bezos or Sánchez. "They're really her friends more than his," the insider noted. "And yet he's the one going." Sources told PEOPLE earlier this month that Perry's latest album, "143," received a "devastating" response from fans and critics alike, with some calling it "AI-generated." That blow reportedly left Perry "deeply frustrated" and caused tension between her and Orlando Bloom. "She was also disappointed in some of the tour reviews," another source told the outlet. "It's put stress on their relationship." Insiders have since told Page Six that the romance may already be over, and the only thing holding them together is her tour schedule. "It's over," a source bluntly stated. "They are waiting 'til her tour is over before they split." Katy Perry has been candid in the past about their fiery dynamic. "Orlando and I, when we argue, we argue kinda hot and fast and then cool really quickly," she said in a 2024 interview. "It's like, 'La la la la la, I love you. All right, let's move on.'" As The Blast previously reported, the disappointing reception of the pop star's "143" album may have been the final straw. Meanwhile, Perry is trying to push the negativity aside. "You shouldn't read it when it's good. You shouldn't read it when it's bad," Perry said of the social media comments. "My therapist said something that really changed my life. What anybody thinks about you is none of your business. It's what you think about yourself." Whether this latest fight is a bump in the road or the beginning of the end remains to be seen, but for now, it looks like the only thing orbiting Katy Perry is drama.

Sean ‘Diddy' Combs kept precious stash of baby oil, lube in apparent humidity-controlled case: photos
Sean 'Diddy' Combs kept his shockingly massive supply of baby oil and lubricant in cabinets, drawers and an apparent humidity-controlled case — similar to a cigar humidor, according to new photos. The evidence, which comes from the FBI's March 2024 raid on Combs' Los Angeles home, was shown during the disgraced music mogul's sex trafficking case on Friday, giving jurors an inside glimpse at Diddy's drug-filled 'swinger' lifestyle. Officials uncovered an array of weapons along with an overwhelming 200 bottles of baby oil and 900 bottles of lubricant that appeared to be kept in multiple corners of his home, including his bedroom. In addition to Combs' Los Angeles home, officials also raided his Miami mansion around the same time last year — the results of which were shown to jurors on May 20. The FBI discovered a slew of weapons, several boxes of high-platform heels typically worn by exotic dancers and lingerie, bottles of baby oil and lubricant, and various bags filled with narcotics. Most of the sexual-natured items were allegedly used to serve his infamous 'freak-off' parties. Jurors previously heard graphic testimony regarding the wild parties last month as Combs' ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura took the witness stand. The 'Me & U' singer, 38, shared that Combs introduced her to the wild, drug-fueled sex marathons when she was 22 years old and claimed that Combs viewed the sex performances as 'voyeurism.' She also alleged the 'freak-offs' would take place weekly and the longest one lasted up to about four days. Large amounts of baby oil would be used for the the events, which involved Ventura engaging in sexual behavior with various escorts while Combs would masturbate as he watched. Diddy was arrested in a New York City hotel on Sept. 16, 2024. Upon being taken into police custody, authorities revealed Combs had bottles of baby oil, pink ketamine and $9,000 in cash in the hotel with him. They also found a prescription bottle of clonazepam that was made out to Frank Black — an alias that Combs often used, according to Ventura and the Bad Boy Records founder's ex-assistant. A second prescription bottle that was recovered from the room had the name of the recipient scratched off. Homeland Security also took photos of the hotel room lamp, which Security Agent Yasin Binda explained to jurors was a 'lighting device' that was used to create 'mood lighting' in the living room. Combs, 55, has pleaded not guilty to charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution. If convicted, he faces up to life in prison.
