Kanye West is a gay fish

Writers of South Park have taken aim at singer Kanye West in a new episode depicting the rapper as a gay fish. The episode, aired on 8th April, sees West being made the butt of a joke he does not understand.

When Cartman asks "Do you like fish sticks?" and is given 'yes' as an answer, he replies "Then you're a gay fish!"

It seems the entire world finds the joke hilarious, apart from West who eventually starts to believe that he is actually a gay fish before setting out on a journey to find an aquatic soul mate.

“Let all my fans know I love them, but a gay fish can't live in the outside world forever,” stated Kanye West's animation who was dressed in lime green tight leotards with a gold chain around his neck.

“Don't be sad for me guys. I'm going home!,” the animated version of Kayne West as a gay fish expressed as he ran off the dock and sprang into the waters with the other gay fish.

The episode ends with West falling in love with a carp.

Kanye West has recently spoken out a number of times about homophobia including telling fans at his New York concert that he used to be scared of gay people.

"Coming from Chicago, where if you saw somebody that was gay you were supposed to stay ten feet away. It took me time to break out of the mental prisons I was in. The stereotypes of the fear of the backlash that I would get if you don't believe what I believe in, accepting people for who they are."
