Kanye West was gone from social media since May 2017, so the mere reappearance of his Instagram account felt noteworthy. But he didn’t just come back with one post—he shared photos of celebrity couples across seven hours on Valentine’s Day. He started with photos of Madonna and Sean Penn and Barack and Michelle Obama, and by the time he was finished, he had name-dropped Ellen DeGeneres, Sonny & Cher, John & Yoko, Dennis Rodman, David Bowie, Iman, JFK, Jackie O, Mick Jagger, Grace Jones, Serge Gainsbourg, Kid Rock, the dude from Sum 41, a fictional couple from “Sex & the City,” and so many others. The series ended, of course, with photos of West and his wife, Kim Kardashian West. He’s since deactivated his account once more.) Find some screenshots of his Instagram grid before it disappeared, below.
