1. Kanye West accuses Kim Kardashian of trying to kidnap their daughter

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's divorce drama just significantly escalated to the point that he's openly accusing her of attempted kidnapping. It all started Friday with West having a meltdown about his estranged wife creating a joint TikTok account with their 8-year-old daughter North, writing on Instagram, "WHAT I SHOULD DO ABOUT MY DAUGHTER BEING PUT ON TIK TOK AGAINST MY WILL?" Kardashian argued his "constant attacks on me in interviews and on social media is actually more hurtful than any TikTok North might create." West responded by claiming "America saw you try to kid nap my daughter," referring to his claims that she wouldn't give him the address to their daughter Chicago's birthday party last month (a party he did end up being able to attend). And he wasn't done: he also claimed Kardashian "put security on me inside of the house to play with my son then accused me of stealing" and that he "had to take a drug test after Chicago's party cause you accused me of being on drugs." Yikes, any chance you could take this offline, guys? It's getting hard to watch.
