Read moreEstelle: “You’re Cool Kanye, But Where’s John Legend?” [Video]
Singer, songwriter, and British beauty Estelle reminisces about her very different experience meeting music icon Kanye West. Their story starts at Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles in California, where West was dining. Estelle played it cool, and when the chance finally presented itself she went for it. She praised Kanye for his amazing work on “College Dropout” but made sure he knew what she was really there for, to meet John Legend. Today it’s kind of hard to imagine wanting to meet someone over Kanye West, but back then, and especially for a singer like Estelle, we understand why her focus was on John Legend. Check out the clip to hear Estelle’s story and how the relationship between her, Legend and West grew into where it is today.
