Kanye West gets cold shoulder from ex-pal Leonardo DiCaprio inside Super Bowl suite

All eyes were on Taylor Swift’s A-list suite (and the game) – but it appears there was a frosty celeb situation unfolding just metres away.

Kanye West reveals why he posts videos of his wife

Kanye West is being shunned by the Hollywood elite, it seems.

Page Six hears that — awkwardly enough — the Klan-hood-wearing vocal antisemite unexpectedly turned up in chicken chain Raising Cane’s Super Bowl suite to watch the game alongside many, many other famous names on Sunday (Monday AEDT).

He didn’t exactly get a warm welcome.

Interestingly, sources tell us that Leo DiCaprio — a longtime pal of the disgraced rapper-turned-designer-turned-prolific-nutter — was among the starry throng and definitely saw West, but didn’t so much as acknowledge his one-time buddy.

At one point a source had told us the pair seemed to exchange nods and nothing else, but a source later said definitively: “There’s was no interaction whatsoever.”

Things were not always so.

The pair have been spotted hanging out together here and there over the years, and West even performed at DiCaprio’s birthday party in saner times.

In 2013, 2 Chainz and West put on a surprise show for The Wolf of Wall Street star at his 39th birthday bash at Tao.

West just about lost his mind when the actor finally won an Oscar in 2016 for the Revenant.

“Finally!!! Our guy!!! We’re so-so happy for Leo!!!,” the rapper tweeted at the time.

Sources say West wasn’t invited to the suite by the booming bird brand, and wasn’t even a guest of a guest.

“He came in for a few minutes with his wife [Bianca Censori],” said an insider, “He was just like a guy dropping into suites, like, ‘Can I stick around for a minute? Can I get a free drink?’”

Meanwhile, the Raising Cane’s suite was packed with A-listers.

We hear Tobey Maguire, Vince Vaughn, Tyga, Wiz Khalifa, French Montana, the D’Amelio family, Ashanti and Nelly, Diplo, Wayne Gretzky, Tiffany Haddish and various others were also there to catch the big game in Las Vegas.

Needless to say, West has become somewhat persona non grata after his series of shocking antisemitic rants and outbursts, which got him fired by brands including Adidas and Gap in 2022.

In December he performed in Miami, Florida, to debut his new music wearing a black KKK-style hood.

Reps for DiCaprio and Raising Cane didn’t comment. Reps for West didn’t get back to us.
