Kanye West Reportedly Has Private Chef At Mercedes-Benz Stadium While He Finishes Upcoming Album
While Kanye West is staying in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, the deal is reportedly official with a contract and private chef in place.
Insiders told Page Six that the 44-year-old has a contract with the venue to stay there while he finishes his delayed new album, Donda. It was also reported that West has a private chef too.
The "Flashing Lights" hitmaker reportedly stayed at the stadium after hosting a listening party earlier this month and then decided to remain while putting the finishing touches on what is to be his tenth album.
"He’s in a private space inside the building," an insider previously told Page Six with sources explaining that there is said to be a suite in the stadium with an official placard outside the door reading "Donda Studio at Mercedes-Benz Stadium."
Earlier this week, West appeared to give fans a glimpse into his new living quarters when he shared a photo of a cinderblock room with a single bed, a small wardrobe, a TV, weights and sneakers on the floor on Instagram.
An insider previously told TMZ that the artist was "so inspired by the Donda crowd" that he decided to stay. The listening party took place on July 22, with Khloé Kardashian, his estranged wife Kim Kardashian and their children North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm said to be in attendance.
