Kanye West's Latest Move Sparks Major Buzz: New Casting Call for Sunday Service Choir in LA!
Kanye West is back in the spotlight with a bold casting call for his Sunday Service choir in Los Angeles. The music icon is on the hunt for male singers of all ages to join his renowned choir, and the requirements are catching everyone's attention.
Taking to social media, West announced open auditions for new choir members for his upcoming Sunday Service events, set to kick off on March 16. In a surprising twist, he revealed that selected singers will need to shave their heads, although it's not mandatory for the audition.
The casting call is open to applicants as young as five years old, with auditions scheduled for Thursday, March 13, at 4 P.M. in a secret Los Angeles location. To secure an audition slot, interested candidates must RSVP by calling 424-547-2394.
This exciting news follows West's recent teaser on Instagram, confirming the comeback of Sunday Service under the guidance of Jason White, the choir's longtime director. However, the announcement was met with controversy when West shared an image featuring white robes and a pointed hood, raising concerns due to its resemblance to Ku Klux Klan attire.
Sunday Service, which made its debut on January 6, 2019, has been a unique blend of gospel-infused performances of West's songs and classic hits. The choir, led by Jason White, has graced prestigious stages, including the 2019 Coachella festival, and even dropped a full album titled "Jesus Is Born" on Christmas Day 2019.
Initially, these exclusive events were invite-only, held at West's estate in Calabasas, with attendees adhering to a strict dress code featuring Yeezy-designed apparel and signing non-disclosure agreements.
West's initiative to revamp his Sunday Service Choir comes in the wake of recent challenges, including a fire that engulfed his abandoned $1.5 million church property in Los Angeles back in October 2024. While authorities suspect arson, no injuries were reported, and West remains focused on rebuilding his musical legacy.
