It’s no secret that Kanye West is quite the diva from his rants to controlling ways but new insight into his antics are even more demanding than we could ever imagine. Steve Stanulis, the bodyguard who claims he was fired for talking to Kim Kardashian, revealed the dirty details of Kanye’s shocking behavior.
“Kanye needs to chill the f—k out,” the bodyguard told The Daily Mail, calling the rapper “the most self-absorbed person.”

Stanulis said West hardly ever spoke to him during the 15 times he worked on his security detail, even while they were in a restaurant. “I don't think he ever said two words to me,” he said. “You could be working with him for 17 hours and sitting in a restaurant with him. You would think he would say, ‘Hey you want something to drink?’ but it was nothing. It just blew my mind.”

While he rarely spoke, the security guard said that he was prepared to deal with Kanye’s snapping out at any given moment. “I had heard through the grape vine that Kanye was tough to deal with and he went through a lot of security,” he said. “I was told before I took the work that I had to be thick skinned and prepared for anything because the littlest thing could trigger him.”
Steve said that Kanye has a lot of “quirks,” informing his staff that he does not like them to open the door for him and does not like his bodyguards being in the same photo with him. The rapper and father-of-2 also once refused to get in his car because there were baby seats in the back.

Worst of all, Kanye never shows his appreciation. “I took Kanye and the two babies to the airport. He never said ‘good job, thank you, I appreciate it’ …nothing,” Stanulis said.
