If Kanye West can't have Kim Kardashian, he'll take a Kim Kardashian look-alike.
Hours after the rapper's "emotionally distressed" estranged wife filed new paperwork downright begging a judge to grant their divorce, Ye stepped out in Miami, Florida, with a woman who could easily pass for the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star.
On Thursday afternoon, the musician was seen strolling through the luxury open-air mall known as the Bal Harbour Shops with 24-year-old social media influencer Chaney Jones, whose long dark hair, plump lips and curvaceous body made numerous passersby do double-takes.
For the outing, Jones sported a skintight all-black outfit complete with a low-cut tank top, leggings and what looked like Yeezy trainers. She shielded her eyes with a pair of massive reflective mirrored sunglasses and carried a large Hermes bag.
West, for his part, paired a navy blue hooded sweatshirt with jeans and his favorite knee-high rubber boots. He chatted away on the phone as the two perused the shops and stopped for lunch.
The pair's public shopping spree came on the heels of Kim's latest plea with the judge overseeing her divorce from Kanye.
As RadarOnline.com was first to report, Kardashian filed new paperwork all the way from Milan, Italy, on Feb. 23, explaining, "I very much desire to be divorced. I have asked Kanye to keep our divorce private, but he has not done so. Kanye has been putting a lot of misinformation regarding our private family matters and co-parenting on social media which has created emotional distress."
"While I wish our marriage would have succeeded, I have come to the realization that there is no way to repair our marriage," she added in the legal documents. "Kanye does not agree but at least it appears that he has come to the realization that I want to end our marriage, even if he does not."
She's been begging for weeks to be declared legally single.
The day prior to her most recent filing, Ye held his DONDA 2 listening party at LoanDepot Park Stadium.
Before beginning the musical part of the show, he played a sample of Kim's Saturday Night Live monologue, in which she said, "I married the best rapper of all time. Not only that, he is the richest Black man in America. A talented, legit genius who gave me four incredible kids."
West conveniently left out the next line of the speech, in which Kardashian joked about their split and took a jab at his "personality."
His grand gestures to win Kim back have been coupled with Instagram posts containing screenshots of private messages with the mother of his children as well as incessant attacks on her SNL boyfriend, Pete Davidson.
Kanye has also accused her of not letting him spend time with their kids and even kidnapping one of their daughters.
By the way, Chaney is the same woman Kylie Jenner's baby daddy, Travis Scott, was recently seen hanging out with after the screening of Kanye's new documentary, Jeen-Yuhs.
