Kanye stepped out in a Jason Voorhees mask

Kanye West stepped out with a Jason Voorhees mask following his tense altercation with a TMZ paparazzi.

Perhaps in an attempt to avoid another run-in with the paps, Ye wore a white mask similar to the one worn by the character Jason Voorhees in the Friday the 13th franchise. The 46-year-old rapper donned the eerie look while stepping out in Los Angeles. He paired the mask with a black leather jacket and leather pants in a lighter shade of black.

Later on, he posted a picture of him and Bianca Censori holding up their phones with their lock screens lit up. Kanye's background showed off Bianca from her infamous Instagram photoshoot, in which she wore a tiny bra and leather corset. Meanwhile, Bianca's phone background features Ye wearing his Jason mask, indicating that perhaps this look is here to stay.

She asked: "Hey Kanye, how you doing? It's good to see you. People want to know if Bianca has her free will, some people are saying you're controlling her." The comment didn't go down well with Ye who is seen in footage looking directly at the reporter before snatching the smartphone out her hand.

"Don't come asking me that dumb-a** s***," he said. "I'm a person, bro." Ye asked the reporter why they'd ask "some dumb-a** disrespectful questions about my wife". Conversation quickly turned to his children shared with ex-wife Kim Kardashian.

"You got questions for that, or are you part of the system? Do you understand what I’m saying? Do you understand what I’m saying?Was it wrong for you to ask me about my wife, some dumba**, disrespectful sh*** like that, was that wrong or right?"

These accusations have come after Kanye had posted salacious pictures of her on his Instagram account while reportedly barring her from using her own social media.

An insider told Daily Mail: "Bianca has always had social media and she was active on it – until she married Kanye. He doesn't want her to have it because he thinks that it will hurt her if she had to read the nasty things that people say
