When it comes to Kanye West, it seems like no one really knows what's going on. The rapper has had a string of bizarre incidents recently, including a handful of off-the-wall Twitter rants in which he revealed that he is $53 million in debt and looking for investors to sponsor him. Now, a new report says that Kim Kardashian's husband had a mere meltdown backstage before his performance at Saturday Nighty Live this past weekend, prompting fans to wonder if he's not going down the same path Britney Spears did back in 2007.

According to Page Six on Tuesday, eyewitnesses say that Kanye was being very difficult with producers and had even threatened to walk out only moments before the show.

"Just moments leading into the live show, and during the live show, Kanye had a meltdown and threatened to walk off," said a source familiar with the scene.

What's more, sources say that his wife Kim had to be called backstage to help her husband calm down as he supposedly wasn't happy with the set for his musical appearance.

"It had something to do with the set," said a source. "Kim, who was in the audience with Kylie Jenner, had to come down. Lorne had to personally talk to Kanye. There were a few really tense minutes."

Another insider added, "He freaked out about how the set was arranged. He was saying he's 'the greatest artist.' He's having regular meltdowns. Everyone's walking on eggshells around him. He's under a lot of stress between the new album and the fashion line."

So far Kanye himself has not made any comments about the report. Stay tuned with Enstars for all the latest updates right here.
