Julia Fox on Why She "Lost Like 15 Pounds" While Dating Kanye West
The actor gets real about her past fling with the rapper.
Nearly a month after her breakup with Kanye West, Julia Fox is opening up about what really happened during their short fling. The Uncut Gems actor revealed she lost weight trying to keep up with his busy lifestyle.
“I tried my best to make it work,” Fox told The New York Times. “I already had a jam-packed life. How do I fit this really big personality into this already full life? It just wasn’t sustainable. I lost like 15 pounds in that month.”
She continued, “It definitely felt like I was his girlfriend. But it also felt like I was being cast in the role of his girlfriend — and he was casting me. He was the orchestrator of it all. It really did feel like a movie.”
Though their relationship didn’t last, Fox has a positive outlook during her time with Ye. “Look at the big picture,” she added. “That was amazing for me. The exposure was priceless, but I do think eventually I’ll surpass the Kanye narrative. Believe it or not, Kanye’s not the most interesting thing that’s ever happened to me.”
For the last few weeks, West has been involved with drama pertaining to Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson. When Fox was asked if she thinks the rapper will “come” for her next, she seems to doubt it.
“I don’t think that he would want to open that door with me,” Fox said. “If you come for me, I’m going to come for you, and I’m really good at coming for people. I just go straight for the jugular. I don’t think he would be dumb enough to do that.”
