It seems like quite a number of people don't like Kanye and they spent
their money to prove it. A few days after he called for a
boycott
of giant fashion brand Louis Vuitton, the exact opposite of what he was
hoping for happened. Louis Vuittion sold out and a new record was even
set for online sales.
After Kanye West told people to not buy any Louis Vuitton until after
January the company took action and sent an e-mail to their best
customers who responded in a huge way. The company says that sales
surged this week and when final numbers came in that a new record was
set for online sales and that customers responded to the attack by Kanye
by coming to the brand for the first time and there were many small
transactions by people who wanted to show their support for anything that is anti-Kanye." CDN reports.
During that radio interview Kanye said "They think I don't realize my power." Guess he's not as influential as he thinks he is.
