Kanye West


Ye[2] (commonly known as Kanye West) is an American rapper and musician who first appears in the Season Thirteen episode, "Fishsticks", and later reappears in the Season Seventeen episode, "The Hobbit".

Background[]

Kanye does not understand the Fishsticks Joke and thinks that people are actually referring to him personally as a gay fish. He resorts to violent rages every-time someone attempts to explain the joke. He punches out a TV presenter and leaves the stage during a performance. When Carlos Mencia claims credit for writing the joke on the Conan O'Brien show, he kidnaps and murders the comedian while trying to get him to explain the meaning. Finding out Eric Cartman and Jimmy Valmer wrote the joke during their appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres talk show.

Kanye and his entourage hold Cartman and Jimmy hostage at Jimmy's house threatening to murder them if they do not tell him the reason for calling him a "gay fish". Jimmy and Cartman ignore the threats and fight about who wrote the joke, Kanye comes to the wrong conclusion and accepts that he is a literal "Gay Fish", mistaking the argument as if they were talking about him. At this point, a music video shows him diving into the sea where he begins humping and French-kissing other fish and sea animals.

Kanye returned in "200", still in his "gay fish" attire, to take part in the lawsuit against South Park with all of the other celebrities.

In "The Hobbit", Kanye constantly tries to convince naysayers that his fiancée, Kim Kardashian, is not a hobbit. However, he repeatedly calls her to clarify certain issues as her similarities to a hobbit become ever more apparent. He sings the song "My Bitch Ain't No Hobbit".

West makes a cameo on a poster in "REHASH".

Deleted Scene[]

In a deleted scene from "Fishsticks", the U.S. Coast Guard finds his drowned, bloated corpse in the ocean, revealing that Kanye's undersea sexual encounters were nothing more than hallucinations.

Appearance[]

Kanye West is an African American with close-cropped black hair and a dark skin tone. Prior to becoming a "gay fish", he wore red "shutter shades", a (presumably leather) jacket, a white shirt (with a partially-covered black design at its center), gray pants, and red-laced black and white sneakers. As a "gay fish", he wore a shiny green, skintight shirt, as well as aqua-green, skintight pants. In South Park: The Fractured But Whole, he is depicted as a literal fish with shiny green scales. He still wears his signature golden chain.

Personality[]

In "Fishsticks", he is egotistical, narcissistic, and self-absorbed. He is also unintelligent, not being able to understand something as simple as the Fishsticks joke, believing people see him as a homosexual fish.

Trivia[]
