Kanye West's LA home burgled while he is on tour

Kanye West may want to look at his security arrangements for next time he goes on the road. While he takes his Watch the Throne tour with Jay-Z around the world, his Los Angeles home has been burgled.

LAPD were notified of the crime on Wednesday morning, according to TMZ. Apparently, no "obvious" items were reported missing, but investigators are waiting for West to return home to establish whaich possessions may have been stolen.

The three-bedroom house in the Hollywood Hills is currently on the market for just under $4m (£2.57). West had previously tried to sell the house in 2010. The rapper has yet to comment on the crime, but his publicist has addressed rumours that he had tweeted a naked photograph of girlfriend Kim Kardashian. She told E! Online: "In regards to this 'story' that Kanye posted and then took down intimate pictures on his Twitter account: TOTALLY FALSE. Laughably so."

Until now, West's biggest headache on the tour was an incident with a fan who was pointing a laser pen at him during a show in Paris, to which he responded: "We don't fuck around like that. You're going to get fucked up and kicked out and all of that shit. So chill the fuck out."
