'Absolutely NEEDS rehab': Kanye West’s ex-bodyguard Steve Stanulis slams rapper ahead of tell-all docu release

Is Kanye West moving on from Kim Kardashian? Rapper hires top divorce lawyer to finalize settlement

Speaking to The Sun, Steve mentioned, "I mean, he's obviously isolating or more, by saying what he is saying. Obviously, with all the anti-Semitic stuff now and all this stuff with all the sponsorships, you know, it's self-destructive. He's in self-destructive mode."

Kanye had a rambling conversation with US conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. During that explosive interview, he praised Adolf Hitler several times even as Jones tried to rein him in. Kanye admitted he saw "good things" in the Nazi leader. The 45-year-old was recently also barred from the Elon Musk-run Twitter after a series of angry and bizarre tweets, one of which looked to depict a swastika and the Star of David emblem.

Steve, speaking from his own experience guarding the rapper, wanted him to seek therapy. But this isn't the first time Kanye's ex-bodyguard has spoken out about his time working with Kim Kardashian's ex. He spoke to different media sites in May 2020 about his time as Kanye's head of security. This prompted Kanye, 45, and Kim, 42, to threaten him with a $10 million lawsuit for breaching an NDA, which Steve alleged he never signed. According to the former NYPD officer, Kanye never sued, but he did issue him a cease and desist letter. But it seems like Steve was just bidding his time as he strikes out with the tell-all documentary just at the moment when Kanye's fame and fortune is possibly at its lowest since he became a celebrity.

Steve's '15 Days with Kanye' documentary, directed by John Bianco and produced by Stanulis Films Inc., will premiere at the 2023 NYCIFF. Steve told The Sun that there was "nothing slanderous in it," which is why he was able to legally do it. "I got famously fired for trying to hit on Kim, which was silly," said Steve, before adding, "I was fired for nonsense, but it was sensationalized because of my past with Chippendales." The father-of-three, who is married to Lisa Stanulis, has said he was completely professional and never hit on Kim Kardashian, even though he found her "stunning." 

"When I first met Kim, you know, I was supposed to be with her. So when she first came into the studio, I said, 'Hey Kim, I just wanna introduce myself. My name is Steve. I'll be your security.' Within the first five minutes, I got reprimanded and taken to the side and was told, 'Don't talk to Kim,'" revealed Steve. His documentary will also include locations filmed in NYC that depict instances where Steve witnessed strange behavior from his former employer — from New York Fashion Week and the Met Gala to the Waldorf Astoria and Madison Square Garden.
