Kanye West is proving to be an overly paranoid protective papa. Daily Mail reports that the 36-year-old rapper has dropped more than $2 million in the purchase of two deluxe armored vehicles for baby mama Kim Kardashian and baby daughter North.
The vehicles come from the Prombron Iron Diamond SUV line from Latvia’s Dartz Motorz Company…and they cost $1.2 million each. If that brand sounds familiar, it is the Latvian company which raised PETA’s eyebrows for its leather interior option made from the foreskin of a whale penis. Yes, really.
The company touts their armored vehicles as the “best protection against hijacking and kidnapping” and vows that their cars are “made to withstand attacks from landmines and rocket-propelled grenades.” I think Kanye forgot he lives in America. We don’t have landmines here. All we need are cars that protect against Bushmaster semiautomatic rifles.
A source told the Daily Star, “Kanye is fully aware that his new family is so high-profile they attract the attention of weirdos and psychopaths. He aims to leave nothing to chance… His priority is to get delivery of the vehicles, especially Kim’s, before he begins his US tour in October.”
And we all thought Michael Jackson went too far in protecting his kids. If you ask me, such extravagance only attracts and welcomes a challenge by the crazies Kanye wants to avoid.
