Kanye West has been spotted out in LA doing something very unusual – smiling.

It’s been a hard year for the rapper, as he was forced to cancel his tour at the end of last year when he was hospitalised in a mental health facility following a break down.

But he’s now looking happy and healthy having come out the other side.

He was spotted out and about with wife Kim and children North and Saint, wearing a t-shirt bearing the name of this hometown Calabasas and smiling his little face off, which Kanye tends not to do when there are cameras around.




However, despite the positivity of the images, he faced shaming from trolls, who targeted the rapper by saying he’d put on weight.

Fans immediately jumped to the 40-year-old’s defense, calling out the fat shamers for their disgusting approach, especially given what he’s been through.

Y’all need to stop fat/body shaming Kanye West, he actually looks both happy & healthy in those pictures. — A·K·S (@MrAkeemsWorld) September 23, 2017

Kanye West probably still weighs less than me so all y'all STFU right goddamned now, you heartless bullies. — Matt Drufke (@IHateMattDrufke) September 23, 2017

One fan even pointed out that his weight gain could be down to any medication he may have been put on to safe guard his mental health.

But why is Twitter fat shaming Kanye West? He was on psychotropic medication. Sadly weight gain is a side effect. — BINTA! (@amaDerby) September 23, 2017

But Kanye isn’t garnering all the interest today, as news broke that his sister-in-law, 20-year-old Kylie Jenner, is expecting a baby girl.

The youngest of the Kardashian/Jenner clan is said to be four months pregnant with boyfriend Travis Scott, whom she has been dating since April.

A source revealed Kylie’s pregnancy to People yesterday, saying: ‘They started telling friends a few weeks ago.

‘The family has known for quite some time. She is REALLY excited and so is Travis.’

She is reportedly due in February. And some amateur Sherlock Holmes reckon they’ve discovered the exact day Kylie‘s boyfriend Travis Scott found out he was going to be a daddy.

On June 12, the 25-year-old rapper tweeted: ‘Legit happiest day of my life.’

At the time, many speculated this signalled a split from Kylie, who he’s been dating since April, however, considering the lip kit mogul is reportedly due in February, this date would have meant Kylie would have been pregnant.

Although there may be a paternity test happening at some point, as some have speculated Tyga’s odd Snapchat was him claiming to be the father.

The snap featured an image of Kylie and the headline ‘Kylie is pregnant’, but Tyga had written over the top of the image ‘Hell nah that’s my kid,’ with four purple devil emojis.
