    Fan opens GoFundMe page for Kanye West

    After hearing Kanye West was a massive $53million in personal debt, a fan has decided to take over and help out.

    I write this to you my brothers while still 53 million dollars in personal debt… Please pray we overcome… This is my true heart…

    Oddly enough, Kanye has been asking the creator of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg for help with his money problems, asking for him to “invest $1billion into Kanye West ideas after realising he is the greatest living artist and greatest artist of all time”.

    When Zuckerberg gave no indication of investing, fan Jeremy Piatt created a GoFundMe page with a target of $53million to help the artist through his struggle, sending him all the proceeds.

    “Recently, Kanye let us in on his personal struggle. He is $53million in debt and it doesn’t look like he’s going to get Mark Zuckerberg’s help that he desperately needs,” he says. “Since he is such a high-profile public figure, I would prefer to have GoFundMe transfer all funds to his people directly.”

    Despite having raised over $3,000 in just two days, it is after reading only 25 comments that many people disagree with the appeal and have other ideas of what to say.

    “I paid $5 to say I am disgusted at the thought that this is even real. There are so many things wrong in our country than the money problems of this young irresponsible spoiled man. There are homeless and elderly who could use this money so much more.” – Joy Acri.

    “How about putting money towards things that benefit cancer research instead of this clown?” – Anonymous.
