Ye arrived "unannounced and without invitation" at Skechers' corporate office in Los Angeles on Wednesday, per the company, in the wake of fallout over his recent antisemitic comments.
Driving the news: Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West, was allegedly "engaged in unauthorized filming" and was escorted from the building by two executives, Skechers said in a statement.
What they're saying: "Skechers is not considering and has no intention of working with West," the statement reads.
- "We condemn his recent divisive remarks and do not tolerate antisemitism or any other form of hate speech."
The big picture: At least eight organizations and two star athletes have in recent days distanced themselves from Ye after he made multiple antisemitic comments, Axios' Jacob Knutson reports.
- Ye was also restricted from Twitter and Instagram earlier this month after posting antisemitic messages.
Skechers told Axios in a statement: "There is no further comment beyond what was issued."
