Kanye West, 45, puts on a rare display of PDA with girlfriend Juliana Nalu, 24, after storming out of explosive interview where he insisted he DOES NOT regret his anti-Semitic tirade
He’s been spotted over the last few weeks enjoying a burgeoning new romance with Juliana Nalu.
And Kanye West appeared loved-up on Wednesday as he enjoyed dinner with the model at at E Baldi restaurant in Beverly Hills, putting on a rare display of public affection.
The rapper, 45, who is currently embroiled in controversy for his repeated anti-semitic rants, wrapped both arms around Juliana, 24, as he beamed during the night out.
The outing came after he sat down with Piers Morgan for two hours to pre-record an interview in which he branded President Biden ‘f**king ret***ed’ for not meeting Elon Musk and insisted he has no regrets regarding his anti-Semitic tirade.

Kanye and Juliana were seen holding red roses as they enjoyed the dinner, with the latter later leaving carrying the flowers.
The beaming Yeezy founder appeared in his element during the meal as he tightly squeezed his girl, with the model resting her head on his shoulder at the table.
Joined by pals during the evening, the pair donned matching all-black ensembles in plain vest tops.
Instead of her lengthy locks, Nalu rocked a cropped raven wig for the high-end dinner.
Kanye sported his signature black space boots, which he styled with a black sleeveless top that showcased his muscular arms.

The outing came after Kanye branded President Joe Biden ‘f**king ret***ed’ for not meeting with world’s richest man Elon Musk in a foul-mouthed rant.
The rapper, who was being interviewed by Piers Morgan, apologised for his bad language, but excused it by saying he has ‘mental health’ issues.
Also in the interview, Kanye addressed the Jewish community after his anti-Semetic Twitter tirade, and doubled down on some of his antics.

Despite offering up a half-hearted apology, Kanye (now known as Ye), said he ‘absolutely’ does not regret his comments – which resulted in a huge backlash, with some of his social media accounts being suspended and sponsorships canned.
The apology came two hours into the interview in which West mocked Morgan by calling him a ‘Karen’, while offering him advice on how to become as rich as he is.
He also stormed out of the interview mid-way through, The Sun said.
‘You know, one percent of the world are placed in power, and ninety-nine percent of the world are the audience,’ Kanye said. ‘So that one percent of the world – this idea of a united nations – this is the world that needs to come together […].
‘Here’s the obvious go-to: Biden doesn’t listen to Elon Musk. The President of the United States does not have meetings with Elon Musk,’ he said.
‘That is f***ing,’ Kanye said, before gesturing to the camera saying ‘here, come, come, come get me,’ in an apparent challenge, before saying: ‘That’s f***ing ret***ed.’

The screen cut to interviewer Piers, who looked confounded by Kanye’s comments and appeared to be holding back from responding.
‘I know I’m not supposed say that Biden, but that’s that’s f***ing ret***ed Biden,’ Kanye continued. ‘And obviously because I’ve been deemed with mental health, all this, I have a right to use whatever words that I like to use.’
The clip did not show Kanye elaborating on why he thought Biden should be meeting with Musk. In April, senior officials within the Biden administration held a meeting with the Tesla CEO and other major leaders of America’s car industry.

At another point in the interview, that will air fully on Friday, Piers challenged Kanye over his anti-Semetic comments on Twitter.
‘I will say I’m sorry for the people that I hurt with the ‘death con’ [comments],’ Ye said on the show with the British talk show host.
‘I feel like I caused hurt and confusion. And I’m sorry for the families of the people that had nothing to do with the trauma that I had been through, and that I used my platform where you say hurt people hurt people. I was hurt.’
The rapper and clothing designer said on ‘Piers Morgan Uncensored’ that he was only referencing certain Jewish people who he believes have screwed him over.

Less than two weeks ago, the rapper wrote in a tweet: ‘I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE.
Deafcon – also known as defense readiness condition – is an alert used by the US Armed Forces to indicate how quickly the military can be deployed during deadly emergencies and attacks.
Ye was pressed by Piers on whether his anti-Semitic remarks were racist, and he says they were, although at one point, the rapper says ‘it’s not racism’ when asked about his comments.
‘When you insult the Jewish people and say you’re going ‘death con 3′ on the Jewish people, that is as racist as anything you say you’ve been through,’ Morgan said. ‘Racism is racism and you know that I think. Don’t you.’

Despite storming out of his interview, Kanye seemed in good spirits later in the evening as he enjoyed a romantic dinner with Juliana.
The duo have been romantically linked since early October after they were spotted on several dates in the LA area.
Earlier this month, the former husband of Kim Kardashian and the Brazilian beauty were captured checking into a hotel in Beverly Hills.

Two days later, they enjoyed a Saturday night dinner date at the celebrity hotspot Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica.
Nalu appears to have met West through his brand Yeezy; she previously shared a snap of herself rocking the Yeezy sunglasses and a Gap by Yeezy shirt, adding the caption: ‘YZY SHDZ.’
A few weeks ago, the model posted a video showcasing her outfit to music by Kanye West; she had his song I Wonder, from his 2007 album Graduation.
Juliana hails from Rio De Janeiro, Brazil and has been modelling since her teens.
She first told her mother she wanted to become a model at age six and was selected to be part of L’Oreal Brazil campaign when she was 18.
The following year, she flew to Los Angeles and signed with top modelling agency Elite Models.
She has been building a profile for herself ever since and currently boasts 670,000 followers on Instagram and almost half a million on TikTok.

Kanye has had a string of short lived flings, including with Uncut Gems star Julia Fox and model Chaney Jones, since splitting from ex-wife Kim Kardashian last year.
The reality superstar filed for divorce in February 2021 just before what would have been the pair’s seventh wedding anniversary.
Kanye and Kim share four children: North, nine, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, three. The rapper previously stated that his ex-wife ‘basically 80 percent of the time, raise[s] those children.’
The budding romance comes amid a swirl of controversy surrounding Kanye and his continued anti-Semitic rants, as well as his choice to debut a White Lives Matter tee at Paris Fashion Week earlier this month.
He also reignited tensions between himself and ex-wife Kim by airing out their custody issues and making claims about her in the media.
She has reportedly distanced herself from the rapper and ‘isn’t answering Kanye’s calls,’ according to TMZ.

Kim, who was represented by divorce attorney Laura Wasser, was declared legally single this past March while in the midst of a hot and heavy romance with SNL alum Pete Davidson.
Kanye attempted to oppose Kim’s efforts to be declared legally single – however a judge granted her request.
The Blast recently reported that Kanye is preparing to finally settle his divorce with Kardashian, over a year after she first filed paperwork to end their marriage.
It was claimed that Kanye’s lawyer has filed a ‘declaration of disclosure’, a sign that their case is on the verge of coming to a close.
According to the documents, the rapper has turned over all of his financial information to his estranged wife’s legal team, and has also reached an agreement with her on how to divide their finances and property.

In an interview with Latina magazine, Juliana spoke about her ambitions and credited her mother with helping her get to where she is.
She said: ‘I wanted to do big things outside of Brazil, but I had no idea how to… the dream sounded too far for me, but I knew that I could try to reach [it],
‘My mom was helping me follow my dreams, travelling to agencies with me, and making brand connections. I lived in the favelas with my family until I was 18.’
The beauty added that it was ‘hard to deal’ with the violence in her area and she didn’t have as many ‘privileges’ compared to others.
Speaking about her pride at coming from Rio, she added: ‘I want the world to see a Brazilian from Rio, the favelas. Good things exist there. So, for the next girls who come after me, the [industry] will be more open.’
Juliana appears to have met Kanye through his brand Yeezy; she previously shared a snap of herself rocking the Yeezy sunglasses and a Gap by Yeezy shirt, adding the caption: ‘YZY SHDZ.’
