John Legend Deems Kanye's Meeting With Donald Trump 'Publicity Stunt'

'I don't think it's impossible to talk to [Donald Trump] about issues, but I won't be used as a publicity stunt,' the singer comments on his friend's headline-making meeting with the President-elect.

Like millions of other Americans, John Legend isnt happy that Kanye West had a meeting with Donald Trump. The singer, who's a close friend of the rapper's and frequently collaborates with him, held nothing back when he expressed disappointment over the whole thing in an interview with France's Clique TV.

Legend even called the bizarre meeting a "publicity stunt." He argued, "I don't think it's impossible to talk to [Donald Trump] about issues, but I won't be used as a publicity stunt. I think Kanye was a publicity stunt."

The "All of Me" hitmaker went on questioning 'Ye's political views, saying he's "pretty disappointed" that his pal supported the controversial President-elect Trump. "I think Trump has been corrosive, his message has been corrosive to the country," he explained. "I think the things he's promised to do have been very concerning for a lot of people, and for Kanye to support that message is very disappointing. Whatever's in his mind, I disagree with him."

West's decision to stop by the Trump tower earlier this week to meet the 70-year-old businessman came as a big deal to many, but not to his wife Kim Kardashian though she is a Hillary Clinton supporter.

Responding to reports claiming that the reality TV star was super upset at her husband and even wanted to divorce him following the meet-up, a source close to Kimye told PEOPLE that the pair had been dealing with worse problems right now she didn't think his support for Trump was that important.

"That's so far down the list of what they're dealing with at this point," the source explained. "Lots of couples have political differences; that's not a deal breaker. They're dealing with much more important things than who each of them supported for President." Another insider made it clear that the mother of two "currently has no imminent plans to file for divorce" from her hubby.
