Kanye West Plays Surprise Gig On US Plane

November 8, 2010
Kanye West Plays Surprise Gig On US PlaneKanye West surprised passengers on a US domestic flight when he gave an impromptu performance over the PA system.

The rapper, who was sitting in first class, took over the loudspeaker around 30 minutes into the flight from Minneapolis to New York on Friday (November 5).

A fellow passenger said West couldn’t decide what song to perform, so played exerts of ‘Gold Digger’ and ‘The Good Life’.

“He was like, ‘Yo, this your n***a, Kanye,’” the passenger told Hollywood Life.

“I had to pass through First Class to get my seat in Economy, and I saw Kanye sitting there with a little drink in his hand. I wouldn’t have even thought it was him, but he was sitting with a very PR-looking lady.”

West is thought to have been returning to New York following a radio interview in Minneapolois, during which he addressed his infamous Taylor Swift outburst.

On Sunday (November 7), the rapper appeared as a surprise guest alongside 30 Seconds To Mars at the MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs) in Madrid.
