Kanye West & Fiance: Dunzo

After a year and half-long engagement, Kanye West and Alexis Phifer called it off. Alexis, a designer, claimed she and the rapper remain friends, although their relationship is over.

“It’s always sad when things like this end, and we remain friends,” Phifer tells People. “I wish him the best in his future and all of his endeavors. He’s one of the most talented people I’ve ever met.”

Alexis put a happy spin on the end of the relationship, but a friend said the couple had serious problems and couldn’t work things out.

“They’d been having problems,” a pal of West’s says. “Kanye is really focused on his show; he’s putting everything into the show right now. Alexis is a nice girl, but Kanye has been going through a rough time. They hit a rough patch and for now they’ve split.”

According to the friend, Phifer and West, both 30, had been spending less time together in the last few weeks as the Grammy-winning star prepared for his nationwide “Glow in the Dark” tour. “I haven’t seen [Alexis] around at all the last few times I’ve seen him recently,” the friend added.

He seems like a total nightmare to deal with. Poor girl.

  • ALL JOKES ASIDE:Kanye probably had doubts to begin with. He did not think of being engaged to alexis until the untimely passing of his mother. If Ms. Donde West were alive he would not have propose to her because he was enjoying his successful good life with his mother-HIS REAL WIFE ON A SUBCONCIOUS LEVEL. Sorry to hear of this.

  • Personally I dont care either way. I bet what helped changed his mind was he saw the recent photos of USHER toting around his new baby and Kayne did NOT want that kind of life ... yet.

    It's funny how famous/ rich people fall out of love when they have to get back to the biz of making money : )
