Kanye West blasted by furious fans after 'wasting' presidential vote on himself
Kanye West revealed that he voted for himself in the US presidential election while also admitting it's the first time he's voted ever
Kanye West has confirmed that he has voted for himself in the US presidential election.
The 43-year-old rapper first announced his intention to run for President back in 2015 and has now cast his vote in what is regarded as the most important election in US history.
The Touch The Sky hit-maker reportedly spent over $3million (£2.3million) to get listed on ballots, and today, he took to Twitter to praise himself.
Kanye revealed that it was the first time in his life that he voted in a presidential election.
In a gushing post about himself, he wrote: “God is so good.
“Today I am voting for the first time in my life for the President of the United States.
“And it’s someone that I truly trust... me.”
Following his announcement, fans flocked to share their thoughts with many fuming that Kanye ‘wasted’ his vote.
“Well, that was one big waste of a vote. Shouldn’t have bothered dude” fumed one Twitter user.
“What a way to waste a vote Kanye. You’re not even in the running!” another fumed.
“Oh, dear lord. I simply don’t have any words for this man. Idiotic maybe!” a third echoed.
Meanwhile, others praised the proud dad-of-four for casting his first presidential vote.
“Good man Kanye. At least you voted for someone you can trust like you say” encouraged one fan.
“You voted for the best candidate in my opinion man!” another agreed.
Kanye’s vote comes after Friends star Jennifer Aniston urged her social media following to refrain from voting for the rapper.
The Four Five Seconds hit-maker was said to be fuming and "shocked" after Jennifer, 51, took to social media to slam the star.
When Jen placed her vote via post, she pleaded with Americans to not vote Kanye because "It’s not funny" - which reportedly left the rapper and his wife Kim Kardashian highly unimpressed.
A source told Heat magazine: “It shocked both of them, and the more they think about it, the angrier they get. They say Jen can’t get away with mocking Kanye in such a rude and dismissive manner, and they’ve already started working out how to fight back.”
