		</div><p>The Balenciaga fashion house has cut ties with Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West, according to a news report.</p>
<p>The move came after several offensive comments from Ye, including antisemitic posts that earned him suspensions from Twitter and Instagram.</p>
<p>“Balenciaga has no longer any relationship nor any plans for future projects related to this artist,” parent company Kering told Women’s Wear Daily in response to a query.</p>
<p>The company did not respond to multiple emails and calls from The Associated Press requesting comment. A representative for Ye also did not respond to a request for comment.</p>
<p>Ye had collaborated in several areas with Balenciaga and its artistic director, Demna Gvasalia.</p>
<p>The label has also had an active relationship with Kim Kardashian, Ye’s ex-wife, who has appeared in their advertising campaigns and credits her former husband with introducing her to the brand.</p>
<p>Ye was recently blocked from posting on Twitter and Instagram over antisemitic posts that the social networks said violated their policies.</p>
<p>He has also suggested slavery was a choice and called the Covid-19 vaccine the “mark of the beast”.</p>
<p>After getting locked out of the social media platforms, he has offered to buy right wing-friendly social network Parler.</p>
<p>During Paris Fashion Week, the rapper walked as a model in Balenciaga’s ready-to-wear show — what designer Gvasalia at the time called an “iconic moment”.</p>
<p>He was then seen at Givenchy’s collection wearing a Balenciaga-branded black tooth brace.</p>
<p>Ye was also criticised that week for wearing a “White Lives Matter” T-shirt to his Yeezy collection show in Paris and the shirt made an appearance on the runway itself.</p>
<p>According to the Southern Poverty Law Centre, which tracks hate groups, White Lives Matter is a neo-Nazi group.</p>
<p>In recent weeks, Ye has ended Yeezy’s association with Gap and has told Bloomberg that he plans to cut ties with his corporate suppliers.</p>
<p>Adidas has placed its sneaker deal with Ye under review, and JPMorganChase and Ye have ended their business relationship — although the banking break-up was in the works even before Ye’s antisemitic comments.</p>
