The rapper and newly minted front-row star tells Mr. Porter, “People say I’m gay sometimes, but I have a lot of bitches so why would I care? It doesn’t bother me at all. You know why they say that? Because they can’t say that I suck, they can’t say that I’m not handsome, and they can’t say that my lyrics are wack, so they say that I’m gay because they don’t have anything on me.” Also: “I’m not your average rapper. For us to be thugs and admire high fashion is kind of odd, but people like it.”
