Contrary to a report published on numerous sites this week, Kanye West did not freak out over being denied a first class seat on a flight from Los Angeles to New York. The erroneous report was first spread by the New York Post who claimed the Chicago rapper flipped his sh*t over being seated in business class.  

After hearing the news, Kanye issued a statement denying the reports. "Man, this is not true. I really feel bad that people believe this kind of stuff or any random rumor that is taken as fact."

"This rumor is so funny, because I had a business-class seat and was actually offered a seat in first class" West explained. "I had a friend who was sitting in coach and asked if they could bump him up to business instead of putting me in first. There was absolutely no altercation in any way."

"I could really care less about where I sit on the plane, I go right to sleep anyway," he continued. "It's hard to deal with the rumors sometimes. As a good person with a warm heart, it does bother me. I'm not bigger than feeling pain, embarrassment, stress and worry. Have you ever been lied about? How does it make you feel? You wanna tell everybody it's not true, right?"
