Kanye West has Kenny G serenade Kim Kardashian on Valentine's Day — and how other stars are marking love day
When it comes to showing his love for Kim Kardashian, Kanye West always goes big — whether it’s a stadium marriage proposal or a flower wall instead of, ya know, a bouquet.
This Valentine’s Day was no exception, with the rapper enlisting the smooth jazz master Kenny G to serenade the reality TV star with “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” amid vases upon vases of holding single-stem roses, in their living room. Needless to say, Kim was feeling the love, posting a video and thanking “best husband award” recipient West for the “most thoughtful gifts ever!!!!”
NO BIG DEAL KENNY G IN MY LIVING ROOM!!! Happy Valentines Day 💋💋💋 pic.twitter.com/A1GD0UlEwu

And before West was probably even out of bed — you know how much he likes his sleep (any time, any place) — Kardashian was on social media posting some pictures with her boo. “Valentine’s Day babe!!! I love you so much,” the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star wrote, along with pix of them kissing and selfie-ing. Looks like romance is still alive with the pair, ahead of the arrival of their fourth child. They’ve been married since 2014.

That’s an important takeaway — let’s not forget the self-love, people. We know the divorce statistics — and it seems like the Hollywood divorce rate has doubled. So these stars — and pig — are reminding you that the most important thing to remember today is to love yourself unconditionally.
