Before insurgents attempted to take over the capitol, the big news of the day was rumors that Kanye West was having sex with Jeffree Star, a man who pretties himself up like a woman.

Star did nothing to dissuade the rumors, but Kanye -- who is in the process of getting divorced from his famous wife Ki Kardashian-- has been silent.

Now a source close to both Kim and Kanye has weighed in.

"There is absolutely no truth to Jeffree and Kanye rumors," the source told E!

The rumor was started by a Tik Tok personality whose previous claim to fame was starting a challenge in which people lick toilet seats.  So take that into account when assessing its validity.
