Kanye West was reportedly "shunned by Hollywood elite" at last weekend's Super Bowl – including former pal Leonardo DiCaprio.

The controversial Bound 2 rapper was thought to have looked lost as he wandered around the A-list celebrity suites at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. With wife Bianca Censori in tow, Ye was reportedly attempting to gain access to a room hosted by US chicken brand Raising Cane when he "didn't exactly get a warm welcome", per sources.

Insiders say that even Leo wasn't interested in talking to the Heartless hitmaker following his recent antics, which include an expletive-filled bust-up with the paparazzi and a flurry of near-naked snaps of his spouse smeared all over his social media accounts.

DiCaprio "didn't so much as acknowledge his one-time buddy", reports Page Six. "There was no interaction whatsoever," the source told the outlet, revealing the two nodded at each other, but nothing else – and nothing from the other stars in the room.

"He came in for a few minutes with his wife," said the insider, "He was just like a guy dropping into suites, like, 'Can I stick around for a minute? Can I get a free drink?'" Wiz Khalifa, French Montana, Nelly and Tiffany Haddish were amongst stars inside.

The Mirror has contacted Kanye's reps for comment.

It comes after he was allegedly "kicked out of the Super Bowl" by Taylor Swift at the weekend. Former NFL star Brandon Marshall said that while Taylor cheered on Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs when they won 25-22 against the San Francisco 49ers, Taylor reportedly got the rapper "removed" from the stadium in Las Vegas.

Kanye was seen at the event with his wife Bianca and had his whole face and body concealed, while Bianca donned a similar look but had her face on full display. Brandon alleged that Kanye purposely bought seats in front of Taylor's VIP box in order to upstage her. But Taylor "made a call" to have him removed from the stadium entirely, it has also been claimed. Speaking on the I AM ATHLETE podcast, Brandon said: " Taylor Swift gets p****d off. She boom boom makes a call or two.

"Everybody's involved. He gets kicked out the stadium." He added: "He was trying to leverage her celebrity." Fans flocked to X, formally Twitter, with their reactions. "This is crazy," penned one X user. Another added: "Does she even have the power to do that to another successful paying customer?? This story better be untrue."

A third added: "It’s hard for me to believe anything Marshall says," and a fourth said: "Guarantee this didn’t happen." TMZ has reported that Kanye fired back at Brandon's bizarre story, with a rep telling saying: "This is a completely fabricated rumor. It is not true."

On Sunday, both Ye and his wife Bianca Censori turned heads with their bizarre choice of outfit for the Super Bowl final. Kanye completely disguised himself for the outing, wearing an Alexander McQueen "death mask", a black leather jacket and matching trousers. Bianca opted for a massive oversized trench coat, covering her hair with a tight black hood.
