"We must now realize the promise of America by trusting God, unifying our vision and building our future," he tweeted. "I am running for president of the United States!"

His wife Kim Kardashian West and entrepreneur Elon Musk endorsed him.

But it's unclear whether West is really running.

West spoke to a packed crowd of about 16,000 people at Lakewood Church’s 11am service.

During a 20-minute interview with Osteen before about 16,000 Lakewood Church parishioners, West told the packed crowd about his recent conversion to Christianity and how God has been inspiring him.

“I know that God has been calling me for a long time and the devil has been distracting me for a long time,” West said as he stood next to Osteen.

He's previously called himself a "creative genius" and said his "music is perfect", not to mention his plans to run for President.

So his latest interview, with Beats 1 presenter Zane Lowe, was on-brand for the musician.

He not only touched on porn and religion, but also said: "I'm unquestionably, undoubtedly, the greatest human artist of all time."

"It's just not even a question anymore."

Kardashian West tweeted Friday (Saturday NZT): "He's here and he's perfect!" A spokeswoman said in an email the baby was born Thursday, weighing in at 6 pounds, 9 ounces (2.98 kilograms).

The new baby joins North, Saint and Chicago. Chicago, who's a year and a half, was also born via a gestational carrier. North, the oldest, is five.

The new baby is the couple's second son after Saint.

Kardashian West later tweeted the new arrival is "Chicago's twin lol I'm sure he will change a lot but now he looks just like her".

The movement, led by conservative commentator and social media star Candace Owens, launched at the weekend.

Owens said the rap star designed the logo - with human figures forming letters to spell the word Blexit - which appears on shirts and hats.

She said the pair's recent trip to Uganda "motivated Kanye and inspired what came to be the Blexit design".

West has supported Republican Donald Trump since his 2016 election, and recently visited the White House.

Wearing a Make America Great Again hat "made me feel like Superman", he said.

West had been invited to the White House for lunch to discuss prison reform and other issues.

At the end of the 10-minute monologue, during which Mr Trump nodded in approval, the president said: "That was quite something."

West replied: "It was from the soul. I just channelled it."

"I love this guy right here," West said, walking behind the desk to hug the seated president, who said: "That's really nice."

Yep, that's right. He and his dad, Ray West, decided to eat the little critters to commemorate the end of his father's battle with the illness. He shared the moment on Instagram on Tuesday, where he wrote, "No more fear."

He made the announcement on Twitter.

The 41-year-old has been nicknamed Ye for some time and used it as the title for his eighth album, which was released in June.

The Saint Pablo Tour had 21 dates left in November 2016 when West pulled the remaining shows after falling ill.

Lloyd's alleged the musician had used marijuana and refused to pay out, citing a clause in the contract about alcohol and drug use.

West, 40, then sued the insurer, citing his treatment at a psychiatric centre.

A judge in California dismissed the case on Wednesday after being requested to do so by lawyers from both sides.

West's lawyer and Lloyd's both declined to comment, other than to say the matter had been resolved "amicably".

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are expecting a third child early next year via a surrogate mother who is currently three months pregnant.

The pair found their surrogate, a San Diego woman in her late 20s, via an agency, according to Us Weekly. Kardashian, 36, and West, 40, expect the newest member of their family to arrive in January 2018.
