The 37-year-old rapper revealed on Thursday at The Daily Front Row's inaugural Fashion Los Angeles Awards at the Sunset Tower Hotel that he refuses to smile for the camera, despite being happy, after taking inspiration from a history book he found in a Parisian flea market, according to the
Daily Mail.
"Back when I was working on Yeezus, I saw this book from the 1800s, and it was velvet-covered, with brass and everything."
"I looked at all these people's photos and they look so real, and their outfits were incredible and they weren't smiling. And people, you know, the paparazzi, always come up to me [and ask], 'Why you not smiling?' and I think, not smiling makes me smile."
"When you see paintings in an old castle, people are not smiling—cause it just wouldn't look as cool."
