Provence, France – Kanye West celebrated his 44th birthday in style. According to TMZ, Kanye spent turning 44 on Tuesday (June 8) in France with his rumored supermodel girlfriend Irina Shayk. The outlet claims onlookers spotted the possible couple hanging out around a luxury boutique hotel in Provence but were also joined by friends.
TMZ says they’ve confirmed Yeezy and Bradley Cooper’s ex are romantically involved but aren’t 100 percent sure how serious their relationship is at this point.
