Ye performed two shows at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles last week.
“Now why wouldn’t you share with Twitter that you went to see Kanye 2 nights in a row?? all that hootin and hollerin about Diddy‘s abuse, but you fail to keep that same energy with Kanye. f–king hypocrite,” a fan wrote to her on X.
“I can hold two truths at once,” she responded.
I can hold two truths at once.
I’ve been vocal about abuse because I’ve lived it, and I don’t excuse it, ever. That hasn’t changed.

Kanye‘s former personal assistant accused him of drugging her at a studio session cohosted by Diddy, among other things.
Ye also took out an ad back in January in an issue of The Wall Street Journal, where he addressed those he has hurt. If you don’t know, he’s made antisemitic statements in public in recent years, and as recently as 2025 was selling swastika t-shirts.
