• Could Kanye West and Jimmy Kimmel be making up? Kimmel announced that West will be a guest on Wednesday night’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live. This will be West and Kimmel’s first face-to-face meeting since their Twitter feud weeks ago. Kimmel ignited a fire in the rapper when he aired a kid-parody of West’s BBC Radio One interview. [E!

• Rihanna just wants to be left alone. In fact, she hates the paparazzi. The singer posted a solemn photo of herself on Instagram with the caption, “I hate these n—-az more than the Nazi.” It’s not the first time she’s expressed her disdain for the paps. Rihanna also encountered several crazed fans in recent months. Last Friday, an intruder was captured nearly a mile away from Rihanna’s L.A. home after he reportedly climb a wall of the property. [E!
