Rapper Kanye West has been seen in public for the first time since being hospitalised in a psychiatric facility on November 21, but all anybody wants to talk about is his hair.
The now-blonde 39-year-old attended an exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles on Thursday night, and promptly sent social media into a spin.
The image of the father-of-two seated on a wooden chair was originally posted to Instagram by Italian artist Giovanni Bassan, and has been widely shared by relieved fans.

Kanye manages a diagnosed mental illness - which they have not made public. And chose to moderate his meds without consultation with his medical team. This lead to a significant change in his choices and behaviours. The sleep deprivation and paranoia has been part of that. All of this is what has been reported and confirmed in the media. To suggest what mental illness he has, would be speculation. The rest has been confirmed.
For me personally, this has produced compassion and empathy for a personality I have previously found immensely unlikeable based on what comes out of his mouth. I guess appreciating he is managing a mental illness does provide more context to his often jaw dropping mouth pieces.
Same. Dismissed him as a narcissistic jerk, now realise mental health issues are at the root of his grandiose presentation.
