Kanye West abruptly stops pedicure to scold nail technician for 'hurting' him

People are flocking to social media in stitches over a video of Kanye West having a bit of trouble with a nail technician's handling of his toes.

When he's not getting banned from a Venice boat company for life after an X-rated ride with partner Bianca Censori or claiming Cardi B was brought in by the Illuminati to replace Nicki Minaj, Kanye West - who now formally goes by Ye - is indulging in a spot of beauty therapy.

We've all been there, when the nail technician has gone in a bit too hard on your dead skin, or the skin either side of your nail, or the buffing, clipping and filing has gone from soothing to ticklish, before swiftly descending into actually being a bit painful.

But for some reason, social media users are finding a clip of Ye getting sensitive about his toes a bit hilarious. Prepare for an insight into a day in the life of Ye:

In the video, uploaded to Instagram by fellow musician Ty Dolla $ign, Ye can be seen sat down with a leg propped up, being tended to by a nail technician wearing blue gloves.

However, something goes wrong, Ye exclaiming, 'Ah' in pain, as the sound of the clippers follows.

Before the nail technician has a chance to carry on, the rapper stands up, muttering, 'One sec' before resolving: "I'm not gonna do the rest of it. [...] It's my toes, no it's my toes. It's my toes.

"I'm not gonna do it. Wrap it up, I'm not gonna do it."

The technician then offers to do the rapper's hands, but he declines.

But, not forgetting his manners of course, Ye still makes sure to thank her for her service.

People who cared enough to watch 51 seconds of West attempting to get a pedicure are taking to social media over the video, many finding Ye's turn of phrase particularly funny.

One X - formerly known as Twitter - user commented: "Kanye said: 'It's my toes.'"

"His toes, his choice iktr," another echoed.

A third commented: "KANYE WEST STOPS MID PEDICURE AND TELLS NAIL TECHNICIAN “IT’S MY TOES” TY DOLLA SIGN IS FUNNY AF."

"I mean, I wouldn’t care that he wanted to end it as long as he paid me for the work I did.. That’s just mean I can get home early," a fourth noted.

And a final resolved: "Kanye is Kanye, he was being polite."
