Kanye West wasn't a fan of the person's outfit.

A video of Kanye West questioning a fan’s religious beliefs is going viral on social media. The clip centers around a fan wearing a brand of clothing with “Hell” in the name. The video begins with Ye asking the fan about their pants.

“These are a new brand called ‘Hellstar,” the fan explains before West responds: “You believe in Jesus though right?” When No Jumper shared the fan’s video on Instagram, many users didn’t understand West’s behavior. “Wasn’t he jus on stage w carti,” one asked. Another remarked: “It’s just clothes what does wearing that gotta do with god??”

West has been open about his dedication to the Christian faith for years. In 2019, he released the gospel album, Jesus Is King. Around the same time, he also hosted a weekly "Sunday Service" orchestration. Speaking with Vogue after the release of the project, West discussed how his infamous ego conflicts with his faith. "I thought I had it all figured out. [God has changed] everything, my ego... God put it all together. I’ll tell you what, when I don’t apply grace, I don’t get the results I’m looking for. Everything must be done with grace. That’s one of the things I pray for—and I need to pray for more,” he said. He added: "A lot of times, people try to point out the flaws of people who are Christian. But always remember, Christians are not Christ. We fall short. We all fall short of the glory."
