KANYE WHO?
Rapper refused entry to London club
HE'S the hottest rapper on the block, but Kanye West was treated like an average Joe when he was left in the cold on a night out in London.
The 28-year-old star endured a humiliating snub when bouncers at West End club Chinawhite wouldn't let him in - because they didn't know who he was.
And to add insult to ego-injury, moments later the same doormen let Big Brother loser Makosi Musambasi and her pals jump the queue and walk straight into the club.
Just hours earlier, Kanye - who was on a whistle-stop visit to London to promote his new album, Late Registration, this week - had performed a fantastic one-off concert at the Abbey Road studios.
And we hear hundreds of fans surrounded the venue desperate for a glimpse of their idol.
