Kanye West<\/strong><\/a> may have some tough times ahead regarding his finances.<\/p>\n

Between Adidas seeking a payout from West, 47, via private arbitration after dropping their $75 million lawsuit against his Yeezy brand last year and Lauren Pisciotta<\/strong>, West\u2019s former assistant, suing the rapper<\/a> for sexual harassment (West has called the claims \u201cbaseless\u201d), West could soon be shelling out \u201cmillions,\u201d a source exclusively reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In addition to his legal troubles, West isn\u2019t bringing in as much money as he once was.<\/p>\n

\u201cKanye doesn\u2019t have any endorsement deals coming in because people don\u2019t want to be in business with him,\u201d says the source, noting that West\u2019s self-financed clothing line isn\u2019t selling like it once did.<\/p>\n

West lost several million-dollar brand deals<\/a> in 2022 after he claimed in a heated X rant that he wanted to go \u201cdeath con 3 on Jewish people.\u201d Balenciaga, Adidas, Gap, Vogue<\/em> magazine and CAA ( Creative Artists Agency) all cut ties with him in the wake of his antisemitic remarks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been beat to a pulp and there\u2019s still no accountability,\u201d West wrote via Instagram in October 2022 after the brands parted ways with him. He also apologized for his comments during an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored<\/em> earlier that month.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like I caused hurt and confusion,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd I\u2019m sorry for the families of the people that had nothing to do with the trauma that I had been through, and that I used my platform where you say hurt people hurt people. I was hurt.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tTaking a stand. Reese Witherspoon, Kim Kardashian and more celebrities spoke out against anti-Semitism amid the growing backlash to Kanye West\u2018s comments. \u201cHate speech is never OK or excusable,\u201d the Skims mogul, 42, tweeted on Monday, October 24. \u201cI stand together with the Jewish community and call on the terrible violence and hateful rhetoric towards [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

West\u2019s financial woes don\u2019t end with his lack of brand deals. \u201cHe\u2019s having real estate issues, too,\u201d the source tells Us<\/em>.<\/p>\n

According to a 2023 report by the The US Sun<\/em><\/a>, West has been living in a West Hollywood penthouse with partner Bianca Censori<\/strong> since last year, and paying $20,000 in rent per month. In addition to the pricey monthly payments, West is sitting on two properties he\u2019s had trouble selling.<\/p>\n

In 2022, West took his Wyoming ranch off the market after failing to sell it. He initially listed the property<\/a>, which he bought for an estimated $8 million in 2019, for $11 million. West is also trying to sell a Malibu home that he paid over $53 million for in 2021, asking for a substantially reduced price of $39 million. He knocked out windows, removed doors and ripped out every fixture and furnishing shortly after he bought the home, but never completed the extensive restoration.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s missing are the interiors,\u201d realtor and Selling Sunset<\/em> star Jason Oppenheim<\/strong>, who is listing the home, told The Hollywood Reporter<\/em><\/a> of the house in January 2024. \u201cIt\u2019s priced to reflect the need for the interior finishes to be replaced.\u201d Oppenheim estimated that the new owner would need to spend several million dollars to redo the inside of the home.<\/p>\n

Despite his money problems, it\u2019s not all bad news for West these days. He and his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian<\/strong>, have been getting along better after previously butting heads in the wake of their 2021 split.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tKim Kardashian and Kanye West have experienced both highs and lows over the years. Kardashian and West met in the early 2000s when he was recording a song with her pal Brandy, a singer who is also the older sister to Ray J \u2014 the KKW Beauty mogul\u2019s ex. The duo reconnected years later after [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cKim and Kanye may not always see eye to eye, but they have managed an amicable relationship<\/a> based solely on their kids,\u201d a second source exclusively told Us<\/em> in February of West and Kardashian, 43, who share daughters North, 11, and Chicago, 6, and sons Saint, 8, and Psalm, 5.<\/p>\n

\u201cKim knows that North has a happy relationship with Bianca and that\u2019s all that matters to her,\u201d the source continued. \u201cWhat happens in their personal life is none of her business, just like she knows that Kanye doesn\u2019t pry into her personal life either.\u201d<\/p>\n
