Kanye West accused of ‘wanting attention’ as he attends Super Bowl LVI with kids in FULL face mask amid wild rants

Kanye attended the Super Bowl at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and unsurprisingly made a splash.

The rapper took his Instagram followers along with him, showing off his front row seats and panning to his two young kids, who were both wearing face-masks, in a video.

Son Saint, six, was playing around with a pair of giant white football gloves, as North, eight, more sternly watched the big game.

But the hitmaker upstaged his children mask-wise, as footage from the event including the jumbotron showed that he was wearing a huge black mask engulfing his entire face.

The mask had very small air holes but otherwise completely covered Kanye's head and had bejeweled wings on the sides.

Fans, and even some celebrities, couldn't help but mock the "attention" begging look, which came after Kanye raged on about ex Kim Kardashian, 41, and her new man Pete, 28.

"Kanye just want some attention," one fan wrote as photos alongside Tyga made the rounds.

"How Kanye gonna watch the game," pondered another.

"Kanye has fully lost the plot," wrote a third.

Comedian and director Judd Apatow even lampooned the outfit, photographing Kanye from behind and captioning his Instagram post with an imagined conversation.

KANYE'S STRUGGLES?

"I’m sitting near Kanye," Judd began in his Instagram post. "He seems very hot and sweaty in the mask.

"I overheard him say, 'man I wish I didn’t go with the mask today, but now that I’m in it I can’t really bail on it."

Judd continued, speaking as Kanye in conversation: "'Do you think I could lose it at half time? Seems like a logical place to make a change.'

"'I wish we would have cut some more vents in this thing.'"

Judd's imagined dialogue continued to a satisfying conclusion and his post was liked by Jennifer Anniston.

Kanye's baby mama Kim filed for divorce from the entertainer back in February 2021.

In addition to North and Saint, Kim and Kanye share kids Chicago, four, and Psalm, two.

She has since moved on with her new man, Saturday Night Live comedian Pete.

KANYE'S FIGHT OVER TIKTOK

Previously, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum reportedly made the decision to drop TikTok from North's phone.

Sources told TMZ that Kanye had ranted about banning his kids from social media.

North shared a joint account with her mother and the two posted a new post much to her father's disapproval.

Kanye voiced his complaints and ranted: "SINCE THIS IS MY FIRST DIVORCE I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO ABOUT MY DAUGHTER BEING PUT ON TIK TOK AGAINST MY WILL?"

FEUD WITH PETE

Kanye's latest Instagram posting spree comes amid his public feud with Kim's boyfriend.

In recent uploads this weekend, he shared a photo of Machine Gun Kelly and Pete in their underwear.

MGK and the Suicide Squad actor joked around on the couch and had their pants around their ankles in the photo.

In the next slide, Kanye posted an alleged text that he reportedly received from Pete.

The message read: “You as a man. I’d never get [in the] way of your children. It’s a promise. 

“How you guys [go about] raising your kids is your business and not mine.

“I do [hope one day] I can meet them and we [can] all be friends.”

Kanye captioned it: "NO YOU WILL NEVER MEET MY CHILDREN."

YE'S RAGE

Kanye also dissed Pete as a "d**khead" while posting a photo of the comedian and Kim out on a date together.

As he continued posting, the 44-year-old stood in front of a white background as he held up a yellow notepad. 

The yellow note read: "My account is not hacked. 2/13/22."
