Kanye West Interns at Gap
Well, we knew he was serious about fashion, but it looks like the Louis Vuitton Don has scored an internship at retail chain the Gap. Initially reported by Us Weekly, the rap star has been "quietly" interning at the apparel giant in an effort to gain some insider's experience.
"He works all the time, and one Friday night recently, he stayed until 12 a.m," Us Weekly reported. "He's learning the fashion business from the inside and trying to do it quietly."

StyleList spoke with a source who confirmed the rumors. "Kanye's been spending time working in Gap's offices, working with Patrick Robinson, as he's interested in gaining more firsthand experience of the fashion industry," the unnamed source told StyleList.
It was reported back in December that West planned on taking time away from his music career to intern at a fashion house. Louis Vuitton and Raf Simons were said to be the rapper's top choices, but it looks like Yeezy went for a more mainstream outlet.
