RIHANNA REVEALS WHAT SHE THINKS ABOUT KANYE WEST RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Rihanna - who did not attend the VMAs - said: "I mean people are voting for [Donald] Trump. Who wouldn't vote for Kanye?

"I got to see his speech and I'm really, really elated with it. His speech was incredible."

Kanye's bid for the presidency came at the end of his speech, when he said: "If my grandfather was here right now he would not let me back down! I don't know I'm fittin' to lose after this. It don't matter though, cuz it ain't about me.

"It's about ideas, bro. New ideas. People with ideas. People who believe in truth. And yes, as you probably could have guessed by this moment, I have decided in 2020 to run for president! (sic)"
