Ne-Yo: Kanye isn't always a gentleman

R&B star Ne-Yo has claimed that Kanye West's behaviour isn't always "gentleman-like".

The singer, who recently topped the UK singles chart with 'Closer', said that West's ego can sometimes prevent him from acting as immaculately as he dresses.

Speaking to DS backstage at T4 On The Beach, he said: "I think Kanye West epitomises what a gentleman should look like. However, some of his behaviour is not very gentleman-like at times.

"Everyone knows Kanye West's biggest fan is Kanye West, so that leaves room for ungentleman-like behaviour."

However, Ne-Yo insisted that he bears no ill feeling towards West, adding: "Nothing against my homeboy - shout out to Kanye West!"
