Kanye West’s chief of staff Milo Yiannopoulos abruptly resigns from Yeezy: ‘Some concerns about his new team’



Kanye West has parted ways with his longtime Yeezy chief of staff in a rumored mass exodus at the company, Page Six can confirm.

Milo Yiannopoulos, 39, walked away from the 24-time Grammy winner after more than 2 years over his latest plans to venture into the porn industry.

“I wish Ye every success in the future. I have some concerns about his new team, and hope he proceeds with caution,” he told TMZ.

Milo Yiannopoulos, 39, walked away from the 24-time Grammy winner after more than 2 years.

In his resignation letter, which he shared with the outlet, Yiannopoulos detailed concerns over West’s plans to launch a “Yeezy Porn” studio.

The far-right political commentator said he’s not willing to participate in the production of pornographic material, because it can be “an imminent danger to my life as a recovering addict and an unacceptable risk to my spiritual and physical health as a former homosexual.”

Still, Yiannopoulos clarified that he would be willing to return if the “Jesus Walks” rapper scrapped the X-rated business idea, adding that “it would be an honor to serve you again.”

It’s not just the rapper’s chief of staff who is leaving the company.

Multiple sources told the outlet that several key staffers have exited in past weeks, however their reasons are unclear.

The news came as a surprise to some, as he previously admitted porn “destroyed” his marriage to his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, with whom he shares four kids: North, 10, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 5.

“Hollywood is a giant brothel Pornography destroyed my family,” he wrote on Instagram in September 2022. “I deal with the addiction [and] instagram promotes it.”
