Kanye and Amber Rose Enter the Uncanny Valley in the Unreleased “Robocop” Video

The rapper’s former girlfriend is some kind of latex robot in this seriously creepy clip.

CG modeler Shihan Barbee has shared a clip from the Hype Williams-directed Kanye West video that never was, for 2008 single "Robocop." Starring the rapper's ex-girlfriend Amber Rose in a latex get-up that makes her look like an inflatable doll and filmed in jerky, robotic motions, 13 seconds is more than enough to give us the creeps - but as ever, it's cool to see any new behind-the-scenes snippets from the game-changing 808s and Heartbreaks era. Never forget: this was the same year Yeezy filmed a pilot for his ill-fated "hip-hop meets the muppets" TV show, starring Kim dressed up as Princess Leia.
