Fashion Zombie

[Blind Gossip] If you’ve ever been backstage at a fashion show, you know that it is often pure chaos. People are running around and bumping into each other, barking orders and making last-minute adjustments to clothing, hair, makeup, etc.

However, something odd happened at this one show with this one well-known male “fashion designer.”

At one point when we busiest, he just walked away and sat down and stared straight ahead. He didn’t make eye contact with anyone. Didn’t say a word. Wasn’t praying or anything. Just sort of catatonic like a zombie. Everyone left him alone. A few minutes later he snapped out of it and got back to work. Weird and a little scary.

      Poor Kanye (yeah, first time ever those two words chained together)

      Been there, struggled to grope for reality when posse depends on sickness for nailing a profit. (In my case less financial than legal, I’m mos’ def’ lower class)

      i’m with you there. sometimes, just *knowing* you have to remove yourself from the situation – even if only for a moment – is a true victory. we’re always taught to just soldier on no matter what!
      (and, yes, it’s kanye, bless his heart.)

    The quotes around fashion designer make me think this is Kanye.

    If he is on rx meds for the recent incident, he may simply be dealing with side effects. I’ve heard people say their antidepressants make them feel like a zombie.

    • up2trouble says

      Good catch … I didn’t pay attention to the quotes. I’m not a mental health professional, but I think the bipolar drugs are the ones that make you feel like a zombie.

    • blackcat says

      As someone who’s been on meds for Bipolar Disorder, the meds in and of themselves shouldn’t make you a zombie.

      It’s crucial to get the dosage amount correct AND to take them as prescribed.

    So he took a few moments on one of the most stressful days of his life, and then got back to work? What a weirdo!….

    Either Siriano or Kors?

  15. TeaDrinker says

    Kanye West, of course!

    He’s medicated now. We either get zombie Kanye or crazy Kanye…take your pick!

  27. CAGirl2014 says

    Designer: Kanye ‘No one understands me’ West. Although calling him a ‘designer’ is a bit of a stretch

    [Optional] What do you think was going on with him? Not a clue, but he probably needs more Thorazine!

    Kanye West

    I bet, it’s the medication for his mental illness that is causing the zombie like state. Sad..

    I’m sure after his recent hospital stay for his mental health they’ve prescribed him with some mood stabilizers, it’s hit or miss with meds so maybe they’re affecting him? I know sometimes they make you blank out

  41. justcurious says

    obviously Kanye. He could save face by putting his whole marriage to kim down to mental issues. ..

  54. Iliketoguess says

    I want to say Kanye West, mostly because fashion designer is in quotes and I sure don’t believe his work is fashion plus that seems like something he would do.

  55. Jelly Drop says

    Karl Lagerfeld

    Old age mixed with meds/booze. That or his collar was on too tight and restricted oxygen to his brain.

  57. NEWhistory4ME says

    Kanye West and those rags he’s trying to pass of as decent clothes

    When is it going to stop? 1st a spanks line now this year is just a tad less spanks but equally horrid!

  60. amagod121 says

    Kanye. I’m quite surprised that catatonic isn’t his default setting now, as he always looks it. He’s able to work at all? Mazel tov!

      Optional: worrying about being arrested for involvement in jewelry heist? Freaking out about no insurance payouts?

  62. PatioPrincess says

    He was probably trying to center himself, and meditate a bit to get calm in a sea of idiocy and irrevelence. Smart thing that we should all do on occasion. “Fashion” and all the associated hype is drivel.

  69. lucasj says

    Kanye; “fashion designer” in quotes.

    Just somehow related to his mental health issues. I’m starting to feel bad for the guy.

  73. january13 says

    Kanye West

    Maybe meds? Some of them can have some heavy duty side effects. Personal opinions on Kanye aside mental illness is terrible & I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.

  74. luvprue1 says

    Fashion designer: Kanye West
    Optional: Who knows. Maybe he was thinking about the love of his life..his boyfriend.

  81. KCeagle says

    Kanye

    Is he still attempting to call himself a designer? LOFL.
    He’s either mind numbed from prescription meds for his mental issues, or scared to death that this might be his last hurrah.
    He’s become dead weight and a scandal liability to Kim & Co. and worn out his 15 minutes an hour ago.

  82. mozartkugeln says

    “Designer”: Kanye West

    He obviously has mental problems. I think it’d be best for him to just go away to a rehab center and try to work things out with himself. Mental health issues can develop into much more troubling ones if not treated in time. I sort of feel sorry for him to be honest.

  84. jajarose says

    Kanye West, he’s on antipsychotic medication. The side effects for some of these meds can leave you fatigued and spaced out at least he was able to snap out of it.

  91. CyndiTx123 says

    Male designer who is having mental issues right now…. Yeezy… Kanye West.. Hope he gets better and makes it thru what he is personally battling…

  97. northernlight says

    I don’t know who this is, but I don’t think it’s a big deal. Sounds like good emotional management on his part, with someone trying to make it out to be more than it is.

  99. gingercat says

    Kanye. He got overwhelmed and just zoned out. Once he calmed down he was able to get going again.
