BACKGRID
Kanye West is in the midst of a pretty romantic tour with Julia Fox, hitting up NYC Tuesday night … on the heels of introducing her to his close pals, including N.O.R.E., during a whirlwind weekend in Miami.
Tuesday night Ye and the actress did a classic New York date — a Broadway play, followed by dinner at Carbone. The couple drew plenty of attention as they entered the restaurant.
By the way, they’d just taken in a popular, provocative and perhaps appropriate play — Julia and Ye had tickets to see “Slave Play.” The acclaimed production deals with race, sex, gender, traumatic experiences and … interracial relationships. It’s been nominated for 12 Tony Awards.
The couple clearly loves the menu at Carbone, because that’s also where they dined Monday night … but that was down in Miami, where they had a double date with Drink Champs host Noreaga and his wife, Neri.
For those keeping track, we’re told that was date #3 for Ye and Julia, who seemed pretty comfortable as she whispered in his ear during the MIA dinner.
N.O.R.E. and Ye have been friends for years, and here’s a fun fact … Kanye’s nickname for his firstborn — Nori — is inspired by his old buddy.
Anyway, we’re told there was nothing low-key about their outing — plenty of fans in the restaurant spotted the famous couples and snapped shots with them.
Ye and the actress — best known for “Uncut Gems” — have been nearly inseparable since date #1 … which came New Year’s Day in Miami.
Our sources say they managed to keep date #2, presumably on Sunday, more out of the public eye … but also met up with some of his friends for that one.
We’re told the friend that time was none other than Future! No word if he was third-wheeling or had his own date.
In any case, Ye and Ms. Fox are in travel mode now, and with a total of 4 dates, and at least one flight, under their belts … things seem to be moving quickly.
