Kanye West ‘BANNED’ from Instagram after violent threats toward Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend Pete Davidson & other stars
KANYE West has been "BANNED" from Instagram for at least 24 hours.
This comes after a marathon of violent threats towards his ex, Kim Kardashian, her new beau Pete Davidson and other stars.
A spokesperson for Meta told TMZ that Kanye's recent posts "violated Instagram's policies on hate speech, harassment and bullying."
The outlet was told his account has been suspended for 24 hours.
The 44-year-old won't be able to post, comment, or send direct messages.
The spokesperson for the parent company of Instagram (Meta is also known as Facebook) continued that they'll "take additional steps if further violations happen."
Earlier on March 16, the musician took to to share a fan comment about Kim, 41, also posting an attack on Trevor Noah as well.
The father-of-four posted a screenshot of a follower's comment reading: "The way Skete used Kim's marital status to address Kanye was a sneak diss to her & she didn't even catch it."

Kanye captioned his post, seemingly slamming the comedian's past drug use: "Im really concerned that SKETE will get my kids mom hooked on drugs He’s in rehab every 2 months."
The fan comment referred to a leaked harsh text exchange between Pete and Kanye earlier this week.
The latest chapter in their months-long personal war began with the Saturday Night Live star apparently reaching out to the rapper.
"Yo it's Skeet," Pete texted, referencing the nickname Kanye gave him. "Can you please take a second to calm down?

"It's 8am in the morning. It doesn't gotta be like this."
Pete then mentioned the TV star and wrote: "Kim is literally the best mother I've ever met.
He pointed out: "I've decided I'm not gonna let you treat us this way anymore and I'm done being quiet. Grow the f**k up."
Kanye countered, "Oh you using profanity. Where are you right now?"
To which Pete replied: "In bed with your wife," along with a selfie showing him lying on a bed.
YE'S ANGER
A day later, Kanye clapped back, sharing with an unnamed contact, trying to get more information on Dave, who leaked the texts between the two men.
"What's this guy's address," the hitmaker texted.
"Brooklyn," the unnamed contact replied. "He lived in apartments his whole life with others."
Kanye then continued the war of words by sharing screenshots of two news stories in two separate Instagram posts.
In one, he shared a long caption accusing the funnyman of "escalating" their feud in sync with Kim's upcoming Hulu reality show.
In his second post, Kanye continued to reference the leaked texts from last weekend: "SKETE called this 'legally single' person my wife," he wrote.
GO EAZY KANYE
Kanye's Instagram instigation also has targeted Kim.
On Monday he shared a close-up photo of a backpack, which included pins of the rapper, a green alien, and the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star.
Alongside the photo, Kanye wrote: "This was on my daughter's backpack when I was 'allowed' to see her last week."
Shortly after Kanye shared the post, Kim clapped back by defending herself in the comments section.
She wrote: "Please stop with this narrative, you were just here this morning picking up the kids for school."
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star's defense came just days after she was the subject of yet another rant from her ex-husband.
In the nearly two-minute video, Kanye slammed his ex for allowing North to appear in TikTok videos.
Kim and Pete first connected when she hosted SNL last October.
Ever since the duo started dating, the rapper has done everything from calling the standup comic a "d**khead," to threatening to "beat his a**," to even accusing him of attempting to "destroy" his family.
Kanye even "kidnapped and beheaded" Pete in the animated music video of his song Eazy, which he also promoted on his Instagram.
The hitmaker also claimed he had "ran Skete off the gram" when the comedian deleted his account after posting and deleting his first post.
"Tell your mother I changed your name for life," Kanye bragged in a caption of a post afterward.
After nearly seven years of marriage, Kim filed for divorce from her former partner back in February 2021.
