Kanye thinks that he thinks that looks "cooler" when he doesn't smile in photos because somber people in history books always look better than they would if they had a massive cheesy smile.Â
He said: "Back when I was working on 'Yeezus', I saw this book from the 1800s and it was velvet-covered with brass and everything.
"I looked at all these people's photos and they look so real and their outfits were incredible and they weren't smiling and people, you know the paparazzi, always come up to me, 'Why you not smiling?' and I think, not smiling makes me smile...When you see paintings in an old castle, people are not smiling cause it just wouldn't look as cool."
Ok Kanye.Â
