AceShowbiz - Charli XCX appears to be on Kanye West's side. Following the 38-year-old rapper's Twitter rant, the "Boom Clap" singer defended him, saying that everyone had "the right to speak their own minds."
"I think artists have the right to speak their own minds, always," Charli said. She also pointed out that it's free for everyone to express their feeling without being censored. "You know. I don't think anyone should be censored," she added.
At the same time, the 23-year-old songstress explained her opinion on wearing fur. Despite attending Yeezy's fur-heavy New York Fashion Show last week, she hinted that she strictly disagreed with people who wore fur. "I don't wear fur. I've become more educated about fur. When I was younger I probably would have worn it in shoots without realising the ethics behind it," Charli shared.
"But now, I actively don't. There are some things I've heard that have been really upsetting. So I'm still learning but I actively try not to wear it," she added.
Earlier this month, Kanye insulted his ex-girlfriend Amber Rose during his feud with Wiz Khalifa on Twitter. Kanye slammed Amber, who was also Wiz's ex and his baby mama, and mentioned her son Sebastian. A few days later, Kanye claimed Bill Cosby was innocent before declaring that he had $53 million debt.
