The 25-year-old singer told DJ Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli: 'My very first girlfriend was Kylie. And so at the time [Kanye] was with Kim, you know.”
Cody said: “So I ended up going to a dinner in New York and sitting next to him. I was, you know, 15 at that time. I'm sitting next to Kanye at this dinner. You know, he's really nice.”
He reflected that the ‘Gold Digger rapper - who changed his name to ‘Ye’ - could be “quite intimidating when he's not smiling' but then 'smiles really quick” that threw Cody off.
Kanye - who was recently declared ‘legally single’ by a Los Angeles judge after Kim Kardashian filed for divorce in February 2021 - advised the teenager to get “grills”, a diamond insert for your teeth.
Cody said: So he's doing that and then he had those grills and he was telling me how he got his grills and that I should get grills.”
The ‘Pretty Brown Eyes’ hitmaker - who has also been linked to Miley Cyrus and Gigi Hadid - labelled the rapper - who shares North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two with his ex - as “friendly” and relatively “normal”.
Cody said: “He was friendly as and I was quite surprised at how normal it all was but yeah, I mean, as a young kid, then it was nuts.”
In another part of the interview, the pop star hinted he broke up with Marloes Stevens, a 28-year-old model, due to his aspiration to become an Olympic swimmer.
Cody said: “It's been a little bit more mellow since coming home [to Australia]. And it's hard with training to do too, you know, to deal with that. You know, especially if you're trying to see someone that doesn't do or doesn’t understand.”
