Kanye West hires Johnny Depp's lawyer Camille Vasquez after brands cut ties, read details

According to reports, the contentious rapper, Kanye West has hired Camille Vasquez, one of the lawyers who supported Johnny Depp in his historic defamation battle against Amber Heard, to represent him in court.

The 45-year-old's business operations will be managed by Vasquez and her company, Brown Rudnick.




Vasquez is reportedly needed because of the deluge of unfavourable news that Kanye has been subjected to.

Following a series of publicity stunts, a number of firms have dropped the dad-of-four, with calls for more to follow suit. He received criticism for sporting a contentious "White Lives Matter" t-shirt at a fashion display during Paris Fashion Week. The shirt was made in response to the Black Lives Matter movement, which started in 2013 after Trayvon Martin was fatally shot.

Kanye's Broken Contracts

Balenciaga severed ties with the 45-year-old rapper this week.

The blow was revealed by the French fashion house's parent company, Kering, and comes despite a lengthy relationship between Kanye and Balenciaga's artistic director Demna.

Last month, Kanye also revealed he would be breaking his contract with Gap.

Kanye's relationship with his longtime partner Adidas is likewise tumultuous. The company declared that it has "put under review" its profitable alliance with Kanye.
