Kanye West & Vinetria 'Aren't Exclusively Dating': 'It's A Great Distraction' As The Rapper Tries To 'Win' Kim Kardashian Back, Spills Source
After Kanye West pleaded for Kim Kardashian to reconcile with him during his Free Larry Hoover benefit concert, fans have been wondering why the rapper is reportedly dating model Vinetria.
The "All Of The Lights" singer — who recently changed his name to Ye — and the 22-year-old were first linked in November. Despite romance rumors, an insider reportedly spilled that the pair is not "exclusively dating," but they are "hanging out," as the fling is "a great distraction for Kanye."
"Kanye is still hanging out and seeing model Vinetria, despite also trying to win Kim back," the source told E! News. "Kanye likes Vinetria's company and has continued to bring her around his friend group. She has stayed in his house several times in the last month and has been invited to social functions with him."
Another insider previously doubled down on the claims, telling the publication the Donda crooner and Vinetria were not "seriously dating," but he "loves the company."

An OK! insider previously spilled that the designer is still obsessed with his estranged wife, even though she filed for divorce from him in February. "Since she has been hanging out with Pete Davidson, Kanye has been doing everything he can to get her attention — so it should be no surprise that days after Kim was spotted with Pete, Kanye dating rumors pop up," the source pointed out of Kardashian's unlikely romance with the SNL star.
During the benefit concert last week, Ye changed the lyrics to his track "Runaway" and sang: "I need you to run right back to me. More specifically, Kimberly." The SKIMS founder was reportedly in attendance. She filed to become legally single one day later.
"Irreconcilable differences have existed and continue to exist between [Kanye] and me, which have caused our marriage to irretrievably break down," the reality star wrote in supporting documents. "[Kanye] and I both deserve the opportunity to build new lives. Therefore, I am asking that my request to bifurcate and terminate our marital status be granted."
