10 Things You Didn't Know About Kanye West

1. He Nearly Got Into The Porn Business

Kanye West has more or less turned his hand to everything he can during his life. From the gaming as a youth, the breakdancing, music, production, fashion, retail, leisure, food, there's very few career paths he's considered and not gone on to make a success of. Well, except one. After finding one of his father's porn magazines at an early age, West has always been open about his fascination with the adult industry and puts his energy for his work down to having a high sex drive. In an interview he gave to W magazine, Kanye admitted that he'd nearly released his own sextape at one point, but ultimately decided against it as "it would have some hinderance to some of the other stuff" that he was currently doing. "I think about it the same way I think about clothing, with anything: look, listen, learn, consume, create. That career choice popped into my head once or twice. But what guy doesn't want to be that? Just sometimes in their life". Who knows what the future holds for Kanye in the porn business, but if he needs any advice he's certainly married the right woman.
