KANYE West partied with Instagram model Yasmine Lopez in Houston - just days after buying a mansion opposite his ex Kim Kardashian's house.

The Donda rapper, 44, was seen chatting to influencer Yasmine, 22, at James Harsden's restaurant Thirteen in Texas on Tuesday night.

Kanye turned up at the venue with podcast host Justin LaBoy to celebrate model J Mulan's birthday.

He was seen standing close to Yasmine at the crowded bar and chatting and laughing away with her.

The father-of-four - who went incognito in a hoodie and baseball cap - later posed with J Mulan and gave her a hug.

Yasmine, who wore a tiny black crop top and skintight leggings, spent much of the night with J Mulan, dancing and drinking with her.

The influencer - who has 1.1million followers on Instagram - posted a photo from the night and captioned it: "Don’t ask me when I’m free. I’m always expensive."

Kanye's night out comes just weeks after he was linked to model Vinetria Chubb, also 22.

They were spotted together at a basketball game in Minneapolis in November after "hooking up" for several weeks and went to Toronto together later that month.

Meanwhile, Kanye recently made his biggest public gesture for wanting to get Kim back by dropping $4.5million on a house across the street from her Hidden Hills compound in LA.

He paid well over the asking price for the compound - built in 1955 - and reportedly plans to tear it down and renovate it.

YE'S NEW PAD

A source confirmed to  that Kanye bought the house in the hopes of staying close to his children amid his split from Kim.

Kim filed for divorce in February after almost seven years of marriage.

"Kanye's new house is a teardown. He only bought it for the location. It's near Kim and the kids. He has a vision for the house and plans on starting construction ASAP," a source said.

"It will be family-friends. He wants to be able to have the kids over as much as possible. Living only in Malibu was making visits more tricky for Kanye."

Another insider close to the Chicago native said: "When he realized he could buy the house and be near his family he jumped at the idea. He wants to be close by for the kids."

MOVING ON

Earlier this month Kim filed to become legally single from Kanye after he "embarrassed her" by begging for them to reunite during a Drake benefit concert.

The rapper repeatedly rapped: “I need you to run right back to me” before adding: “More specifically, Kimberly.”

She also asked that "West" be dropped from her name.

Amid her ongoing divorce from Kanye, Kim has moved on with Saturday Night Live star Pete Davidson.
