Kris Jenner Interview, 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' Season 8 Star Defends Kanye West's Jimmy Kimmel Twitter Diss (VIDEO)
Kris Jenner defended her "roommate" Kanye West on Oct. 4 when asked about his Twitter feud with Jimmy Kimmel.
The late night talk show host revealed in September that West expressed grievance over a skit where he spoofed the rapper.
"He is very angry because of a bit we aired this week," Kimmel said, adding it was "pretty innocuous."
Jenner appeared on E!'s Hello Ross on Friday and host Ross Matthews asked her what side of West's personality does she see past him being a Chicago rapper notorious for his Twitter rants and feuds with celebrities. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians matriarch called West "an amazing boyfriend to [daughter] Kim and a great dad and a wonderful person."
"I love him so much," she said.
West and Kim Kardashian have been staying in Jenner's Calabasas home since before the couple welcomed their first child, Notth West, on June 15. The pair is staying there while waiting for renovations to be complete on their Bel Air mansion.
Jenner explained that because she got to see another side of the Watch The Throne rapper since he began staying at her Calabasas home, she thought it was important to have him as a guest on her daytime talk show.
"That's why I thought it was so cool to have him on my show, and I got to sit down with him for an entire hour, and I think people saw this other side to him," Jenner explained. "He's creative and he's an amazing, amazing human being, he really is. And he doesn't always do interviews and get the chance to really express himself like that, so I was really glad that I got a chance to sit down and talk with him."
"And it made me so happy that, you know, you guys got to see the Kanye that I know at home," she added.
