On the eve of the 59-year-old movie legend Quentin Tarantino became a guest of the author’s talk show Jimmy Kimmel, where he responded to the accusations of 45-year-old Kanye West of plagiarism. The rapper recently claimed that the director stole the plot of the Oscar-winning Django Unchained film from him while working with him on the 2005 music video for “Gold Digger”.
It didn’t happen,” Tarantino said. – The idea of creating “Django” came to me long before I met Kanye.
However, the director was not surprised that Kanye thinks so.
He did have an idea for the “Gold Digger” video that he would play a slave in it. This was to be the story of a slave who sings that he is a “gold digger”. It was very funny.
Funny video about slaves? – said the host.
It was supposed to be ironic. And it looks like a huge musical. I mean, it was part of the fight against racism.
As a result, West did not release the video, and the “Gold Digger” video turned out to be the way we know it. Django Unchained was released seven years later in 2012 and became Tarantino’s most financially successful film, grossing $425.4 million worldwide on a $100 million budget.
Kanye West filed a plagiarism charge last week on Piers Morgan’s uncensored broadcast. Note that this happened against the backdrop of Kanye’s complete “cancellation” in show business and the fashion industry after his scandalous statements. The rapper has already managed to lose his billionaire status, and also contracts with brands Balenciaga, Adidas and many others.
