Tonight, Kanye West tweeted a cover of Rolling Stone (below), which he said was shot by Tyler, the Creator. The caption on the cover: “Does He Like Mustard?” Unfortunately, Rolling Stone have confirmed that it’s a fake.

While we love Kanye, and have many mustard-related questions for him, this is not an actual cover of Rolling Stone https://t.co/2c3ZWpaorN

Update (02/03, 8:05 p.m.): Now that it’s been revealed as a hoax, Kanye is hosting a poll on Twitter to see if people should think that should be the real cover. He also used the hashtag “#trollingstone.”
I bet you this still becomes the cover though… Let’s do another poll….. #trollingstone
