Kanye West has taken over music, dabbled in fashion and the restaurant industry, and just premiered his first movie short, Cruel Summer, at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival in France. So what will he think of next?
How about an amusement park?
West is focusing on designing his own theme park, and plans to go full speed ahead after the Grammy Awards next February.
The rapper tells GQ Magazine, “What I want to do post-Grammys is I want to work on cities, I want to work on amusement parks, I want to change entertainment experiences or life.”
Kanye plans to run the project through his partnership with creatives at his new design firm Donda, and is looking to fashion icon Alexander McQueen and Mirror Mirror filmmaker Tarsem Singh for his inspiration.
West adds, “Something like if McQueen or Tarsem was to meet the entertainment value of a Cirque du Soleil or a Walt Disney. With the Donda company, this is our first installation.”
It will be VERY interesting to see him get this off the ground.
