Conservative commentator Candace Owens on Wednesday night premiered The Greatest Lie Ever Sold, her documentary exploring "the true story" behind the death of ex-convict George Floyd, and the corrupt 'Black Lives Matter' organization which formed during the riots in 2020. Owens' friend and fashion mogul Kanye 'Ye' West was in attendance at the event in Nashville, Tennessee.
Ye, 45, has been embroiled in public feuds with ex-wife Kim Kardashian, some of his business partners and other celebrities. He recently appeared at his fashion show in Paris with Owens, both wearing t-shirts with "White Lives Matter" emblazoned.
Apparently, Owens is unbothered by the online outrage they triggered with the WLM t-shirts. In fact, she escalated the drama surrounding her and Ye. In attendance at her documentary premiere was none other than American singer and actor Ray J (born William Ray Norwood Jr) -- who famously had sex on camera with Kim Kardashian.
Pictures of Ray J and Ye posing with Owens went viral overnight, triggering fans and critics.
Other celebrities at the star-studded event include singer Kid Rock, and King Randall I., founder of The Life Preparatory School for Boys, a non-profit “with a mission to teach boys the true meaning of manhood & to be protectors and providers for their communities.”
The Greatest Lie Ever Sold also takes a deep-dive into the multi-million dollar “grift” of the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation and its former Executive Director Patrisse Cullors.
Owens Prior to entering the event venue, appeared on Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight to discuss the documentary. “They use black pain to create confusion and to take millions upon millions, tens of millions of dollars from people,” she said of BLM leaders and related non-profits. “And where did the money go, Tucker? That’s what the documentary explores, the people are going to be shocked.”
Just hours before the event in Nashville, the Candace Owens Podcast host had revealed on social media, that JP Morgan Chase bank has terminated its relationship with Ye, following the rapper's controversial social media posts which critics say were antisemitic.
Ye who has also been suspended by Big Tech social media platforms, doubled down in an interview with a New York Post reporter, Wednesday night.
"Hey, if you call somebody out for bad business, that means you’re being antisemitic," he told the reporter. "I feel happy to have crossed the line of that idea so we can speak openly about things like getting canceled by a bank."
