Either everyone’s favourite gameshow expert has had his Twitter hacked or Kanye West is an avid viewer of British teatime TV.
Via Twitter, Pointless co-anchor Richard Osman has confirmed that the rapper will appear on the celebrity equivalent of the popular BBC gameshow with a view to host a US version.
As spotted by FACT, Osman claims that West fell in love with the show during a recent UK visit.
Allegedly, Osman was meant to withhold the information until Saturday (4 February) but couldn’t contain himself.
Check out the tweets below. This is real life.
Ok! I’m not supposed to say this til Saturday, but it’s too much fun to keep to myself. Kanye West is booked on #PointlessCelebrities!

Kanye also presenting the US pilot of Pointless Celebrities, though I am less excited about that. He saw it on a trip to London & got hooked

Update: Richard Osman lied. See below tweet.
Kanye's not really coming on Pointless Celebs (though if he's reading this, call me). You were all too smart to believe it. Good work.
