Kimye Responds to 'Bound 3' Parody Video
Jason St. Amand READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Actors and longtime friends Seth Rogen and James Franco unleashed their shot-by-shot re-creation of Kanye West's music video for "Bound 2," aptly called "Bound 3." The hilarious video made waves all over the Internet, but many waited to see how Kanye would respond -- in September the rapper flipped out when talk show host Jimmy Kimmel parodied his interview with BBC host Zane Lowe, so there was no telling how he would take "Bound 3."
As Pitchfork reports, Kanye's girlfriend Kim Kardashian, who is featured in the original music, retweeted Rogen's link to the video, writing, "You nailed it!!! Sooo funny!"
Kardashian later wrote, "Kanye says what's up! He loves u guys! He laughed so hard at this."
Rogen wrote back, and tweeted, "thanks! Some of those positions were really uncomfortable. That shit is harder than it looks."
In September, Kanye was not happy with Kimmel when he aired a skit of children reenacting his BBC One interview. He later went on the "Jimmy Kimmel Show" to clear the air and gave an amazing stream of consciousness speech Kanye is known for.
