Los Angeles, CA - *EXCLUSIVE* - Kim Kardashian leaves what may be a lawyer's house after the star exchanged posts with estranged husband, Kanye West over TikTok drama! The exes have been locked in a bitter exchange with Kim going on the attack after Kanye shared his grievance on social media. Kim responded by saying, "Kanye’s constant attacks on me in interviews and on social media is actually more hurtful than any TikTok North might create. As the parent who is the main provider and caregiver for our children, I am doing my best to protect our daughter while also allowing her to express her creativity in the medium that she wishes with adult supervision -- because it brings her so much happiness."

Jay Pharoah’s Kanye West Impression Of Jesus In ‘SNL’ Skit

So funny! Rihanna (Sasheer Zamata) narrated the skit while Eminem (Taran Killam), Riff Raff (James Franco) and Rick Ross (Kenan Thompson) stepped out as the three wise man.

They were joined by Justin (Kate McKinnon) and Beyonce (Nicki Minaj) who played Joseph and Mary during a hilarious bit while poking fun at the famous celebs.

However, the ultimate surprise came after Nicki made a “Drunk In Love” reference, and out popped baby Jesus! The three wise men started singing along to the beat of Kanye’s hit “Black Skinhead”, while baby Jesus rapped all about being a God. Which totally makes sense that centuries later Jesus became Yeezus and wrote “I am a God.”

Kanye West ‘Wasn’t Happy’ About ‘SNL’ Diss In 2013

We wonder how Kanye will feel about being the punch of yet another SNL spoof! Kanye and Kim Kardashian were the highlights of many skits in 2013 including the “Bound 2” holiday parody, and let’s not forget “Waking Up With Kimye!” Kanye was apparently not happy to be parodied!

“Kim and Kanye both saw [the Dec. 21 ‘Waking Up With Kimye’ sketch],” a source told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “Kanye doesn’t think it’s funny at all, but Kim doesn’t really care. As long as they aren’t making fun of North it’s okay. Kanye wasn’t happy they made fun of “Bound 2″ because they put a lot of work into that.”

What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Will Kanye be upset SNL made fun of him again? Did you think “Jingle Ballerz” was hilarious? Let us know!
