Kanye West and Kim Kardashian Engagement and Wedding: Yeezus Purchases KUWTK Star's Wedding Gift, Does It Mean that Burger King Will Cater Their Wedding?
She can have it her way -- it has recently been reported that Kanye West is apparently purchasing 10 Burger King franchises in Europe as a wedding gift for his bride-to-be, Kim Kardashian.
The Yeezus rapper, who already owns several Fatburger chains in his hometown Chicago, is looking for the locations for Burger King restaurants in the U.K., Italy and France, to make the Keeping Up with the Kardashians reality star into "a real international businesswoman."
"As always, Kanye is thinking outside the box when it comes to gifts for Kim," a source said. "She owns all the jewels anyone could ever want, so he is taking the practical route by investing in business for her instead. He knows the fast food industry is reliable and lucrative, plus BK is international so he thinks it's the perfect fit for Kim."
Although the representative of the fast-food giant is uncertain whether the recent claims of the Chicago rapper buying the chains are true or not, Burger King is interested in getting involved in the upcoming nuptials. "Burger King Corp. is familiar with the recent news stories regarding Kanye West and Kim Kardashian," the rep said in a statement. "We are unaware of any purchase of Burger King restaurants made by either Mr. West or Ms. Kardashian, but we're available to cater the wedding!"
After Kanye West proposed to Kim Kardashian at San Francisco's AT&T Park last October, the couple is set to get married on May 24 in Paris.
