Yesterday was Valentine’s Day, which means social media was filled with performative romance. Because it’s not really love unless your partner gives you something worth sharing on Instagram. For Kanye West and Kim Kardashian West, that meant hiring Kenny G for a bizarre solo concert.
NO BIG DEAL KENNY G IN MY LIVING ROOM!!! Happy Valentines Day 💋💋💋 pic.twitter.com/A1GD0UlEwu

Now, we have a lot of questions about this gift. Like, Kim, where is your living room furniture? And did Kenny G have to patiently wait while some poor personal assistant placed a field of vases in between him and where Kim would be? Because it doesn’t look like there’s any room to move through those roses. And what did Kenny G do to deserve being treated like a box of chocolates?
Twitter likewise had a lot of feelings about this Valentine.
This looks a little like Jigsaw put Kenny G in a trap. https://t.co/iirWQSmBjw

I have so many questions. Is Kenny G still playing? How long is he there for? Did Kanye set all those flowers up? WHY DO I CARE ABOUT ANY OF THIS WHAT SORCERY? https://t.co/f6OI36yuNt

HONESTLY REAL LOVE IS TRAPPING KENNY G IN A ROOM IN YOUR HOME https://t.co/vzsStrABQo

Very similar to how The Police tried to trap Sting in the '80s. pic.twitter.com/J5vi5MQPpq

If Kenny G was in my living room I would leave.

Christ, if I got home home and Kenny G was standing in a field of dead flowers in my living room I’d burn the house down
