Famous Video: Ray J, Rihanna, Taylor Swift's BFF Lena Dunham aren't pleased with Kanye West

Ray J isn't too happy to see a wax figure of himself featured in the music video for Kanye West's "Famous". The rapper, who's seen lying in a massive bed naked next to his ex Kim Kardashian and her husband, expressed displeasure in an interview with Entertainment Tonight at the BET Awards on Sunday, June 26.
"Man, I'm just trying to stay positive," Ray told the publication before revealing that the super NSFW visuals caused problems between him and his fiancee Princess Love. "I'm engaged. My marriage is all messed up 'cause of craziness," he shared. "I'm not part of nothing crazy. I walk down a good path."
"My fiancee tripping. It's all bad in my world, and that ain't cool," he added. "Don't put me part of nothing that's weird, that don't make no sense. Can I grow up?"

Ray isn't the only star appearing in the video who's not impressed with it. According to HollywoodLife.com, West's on-and-off enemy Taylor Swift was "furious" after finding out about the clip. At least one member of her girl squad also found it offensive and decided to speak out in a Facebook post.

Lena Dunham, one of Swift's A-list friends, took issue with the fact that some women were seen naked and unconscious in the bed along with alleged rapist Bill Cosby. In the lengthy Facebook message, she said she loved West and the entire Kardashian family, but it didn't stop her from disliking the video that she deemed "disturbing."

Rihanna, one of the stars featured in the video, is reportedly unhappy that she was put next to former U.S. President George W. Bush and the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
A source close to the "Umbrella" singer hinted that she might be pissed off because she lay next to politicians with views she doesn't agree with. "Ri doesn't appreciate laying in the same bed as George Bush or Donald Trump," the source told HollywoodLife.com. "She'd rather lay next to the devil while drink boiling hot water in hell than to share sheets with either of those two."
"She doesn't know what the hell Kanye was thinking when he decided to throw them in the picture," the insider continued. It was also said that it would be better if the 39-year-old rapper put the Barbadian singer next to Hillary Clinton or Michelle Obama. "Surely, he could have chosen other politicians. He would have knocked it out of the park had he had Ri sandwiched between Michelle [Obama] and Hillary [Clinton]. Rihanna would have lived for that," the source shared.
"Ri's all about brilliant, classy, powerful and sexy women and believes Michelle, Hillary and herself exclude that. Ri might take this idea and do something of her own with it," the source added.

"The Famous video is one of the more disturbing 'artistic' efforts in recent memory," the "Girls" creator wrote. "Now I have to see the prone, unconscious, waxy bodies of famous women, twisted like they've been drugged and chucked aside at a rager? It gives me such a sickening sense of dis-ease."
"I'm sure that Bill Cosby doll being in the bed alongside Donald Trump is some kind of statement, that I'm probably being trolled on a super high level," she continued. "I don't have a hip cool reaction, because seeing a woman I love like Taylor Swift [f**k that one hurt to look at, I couldn't look], a woman I admire like
West debuted the "Famous" video during an exclusive premiere event in Los Angeles last week. Speaking to Vanity Fair, he said that the clip wasn't made in support or against anyone. "It's not in support or anti any of [the people in the video]," he explained. It's a comment on fame."
He realized that the controversial video would enrage people, and he said in a tweet last weekend that he's ready if someone filed a lawsuit over it. "Can somebody sue me already? #I'llwait," he wrote in the now-deleted post.
