Entrepreneur and pharmaceutical executive Martin Shkreli laughs during a hearing of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Capitol Hill.
The Internet wins again.
“Yeezy Season 3” was quickly trending on Twitter as over 20 million people, according to Tidal, tuned into Kanye West’s highly anticipated fashion show and listening party for “The Life of Pablo” on Thursday.
Most fans turned to social media to drop praise for the “Gold Digger” rapper.

Kanye West unveiled his new collection and dropped his latest album at Madison Square Garden on Thursday.
The kindest words perhaps came from his wife.
And, the 38-year-old’s name dropping of Taylor Swift, Ray J and Blac Chyna didn’t go unnoticed.
West took credit for putting Swift on the map when he famously interrupted her on stage in 2009, writing “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex, I made that b—- famous.”
He also gave Chyna her dues for helping his brother-in-law Robert Kardashian lose weight and rapped he and Ray J might have been friends if they didn’t “love the same b—-.”
However, some people were more focused on Kim’s blond wig than the music.
But, there was just to much to focus on during the bizarre bash, including Lamar Odom’s first public appearance since being hospitalized in October.
Then, this snap of West, Kid Cudi and Travis Scott proving true squad goals.
The Internet couldn’t get over the rapper being adored by all in this shot.
Or, this set of rules for his models that was being circulated. Essentially, they could only breathe and walk.
And, in usual West fashion, there was a video game announcement about his mom in heaven that left most really confused.
The release of West’s seventh album even brought out one of the least expected Yeezus disciples.
Martin Shkreli, the disgraced “Pharma bro” turned to the 140-character website to place a $ 10 million bid on West’s latest work.
“Aiyo @kanyewest last minute can I buy your album out so it dont get released publicly,” he wrote moments before Kim Kardashian’s beau took the stage at Madison Square Garden.
The former hedge fund executive wanted West to cancel the hyped-up release and relinquish the album “solely to me.”
And the 32-year-old seemed intent, calling himself a longtime fan of Yeezy and claiming West and company were legally required to review his offer.

Pharmabro Martin Shkreli posted this offer letter, with intents to buy Kanye West’s new album and stop it from being released to the public.
“This should delay the album by a few days,” he wrote.
Wu Tang Clan’s latest album, “Once Upon a Time in Shaolin” will have to be enough for Shkreli as the show went on despite his lucrative offer.
