Breaking News: Calls for Kanye West to Replace Pete Davidson on Blue Origin Space Flight

After GeekWire contributing editor Alan Boyle shared a headline on Davidson dropping out of the trip to space, he pondered: “I wonder if @kanyewest is available…”

“Get Kanye on the phone!” Complex pop culture writer Karla Rodriguez commented, alongside a GIF animation of West aboard a small aircraft.

Alex Young, founder of online publication Consequence, suggested that the coveted seat had already gone to the “Donda” rapper, responding to the announcement:

“It’s Kanye.” Davidson was depicted as telling West that he was “in bed with your wife,” before proposing that the two men meet privately to discuss and resolve their differences.
