See all of Kanye West’s look-alike exes as rapper moves on from Kim Kardashian with mogul’s ‘twin’ Chaney James
KANYE West may no longer be with Kim Kardashian, but that apparently doesn’t mean he can’t date a Kim clone.
The rapper, who was married to the reality star for seven years, certainly has a type when it comes to dating.
Ye’s latest look-alike is 24-year-old model Chaney Jones.
It’s not clear exactly when Chaney and Kanye met, but rumors of a relationship between the two started circulating online after Kanye was spotted spending time with her at dinner and a party in Malibu on February 9, 2022.
Chaney was one of the celebrities invited to Kanye’s Donda 2 listening party, which is scheduled to be released later in February.
The influencer – who strongly resembles Kim, 41- rocked a curve-hugging black bodysuit to the party.
She also wore gloves, black heeled boots and blue designer glasses, while her dark wavy hair was worn down.
The outfit looked like something straight out of the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star’s closet.

But she’s hardly the first person Kanye has dated who bares a striking resemblance to his ex.
See what you think of Ye’s exes below.
JULIA FOX
Just days after Julia Fox, 31, accused her husband Peter Artemiev of being a “deadbeat dad,” she was spotted on a date with Kanye.
Julia confirmed in an op-ed article that the two are dating, telling PageSix that she is excited about her future with him.
“I don’t know where things are headed,” she told the media outlet. “But if this is any indication of the future I’m loving the ride.”
The two previously met in Miami while celebrating New Year’s Eve, and later went on a second date where he surprised her with the photoshoot.
VINTERIA
Model and Instagram influencer, Vinetria, allegedly dated Kanye at the end of 2021
Sources close to the pair reveal they had been “hooking up” for awhile according to Page Six.
Vinetria was reportedly in Miami with Ye as he recorded his Drink Champs interview, and recently attended his Sunday Service in Los Angeles.
The two were spotted together in public for the first time at Donda Academy’s debut basketball game in Minneapolis.
IRINIA SHAYK
In March of 2021, rumors began to circulate that Ye and Russian model Irina Shayk were dating.
A source revealed in May that the two “met up one night and had chemistry and hit it off.”
The source continued: “It’s very casual and they have only been in touch for about a month. Kanye has expressed he doesn’t want anything serious but likes Irina’s vibe.”
Another source added at the time “Kanye has been flying in and out of New York to be with [Irina].”
In June, the two were spotted together in France, appearing to be “an item”.
By August, however, the pair had reportedly called it quits.
“Kanye has been busy working and spending time with his kids,” said a source at the time.
“This is his focus. He doesn’t have time to date right now. He finds Irina amazing though. They remain friendly.”
CHANEL IMAN
Kanye was linked to former Victoria’s Secret model Chanel Iman in 2010, but the pair never confirmed their relationship.
“Rumors are rumors. Kanye’s a great artist. He’s very talented,” she told Us Magazine. “I’ve always loved his music. He’s an incredible performer.”
MELODY THORNTON
The former Pussycat Doll used to be really good friends with Kim, until Melody reportedly grew close to Kanye in 2010.
Melody and Kanye’s relationship came after Kanye’s messy split from model Amber Rose.
Kanye and Melody were pictured together at a fashion event in Marc Jacobs’ New York store with US sources claiming at the time they’d been “dating for about two weeks.”
Kanye and Melody’s friendship swiftly ended and soon after he admitted he only had eyes for Kim.
