Kanye West Called Parkland Survivor Emma Gonzalez His ‘Hero’, And Her Response Was Brutal
The young gun control activist was not impressed.
During his controversial Twitter tirade involving Donald Trump and “dragon energy,” rapper Kanye West heaped praise on Parkland shooting survivor turned gun control activist Emma Gonzalez.
West tweeted out a photo of Gonzalez at the CNN Florida Town Hall and labeled her “my hero.”

West then tweeted a selfie with a freshly shorn scalp and wrote that his buzz cut was “inspired by Emma.”
That’s even though his head is pretty much always shaved…

Gonzalez was clearly not impressed, a sign she is probably not on board with West’s sudden embrace of President Trump.
Shortly after Kanye’s praise, Gonzalez tweeted out a photo of the Waffle House shooting hero James Shaw Jr., calling him her “hero.”

Yep, that was definitely a burn… sorry, Kanye.
