Details are scant, but Kanye West revealed earlier this week that he plans to go on a co-headlining tour with our favorite evil robot, Lady GaGa.

"She's talented and so incredible that she's not an opening act," he told the ladies of "The View." "We're doing our show together, with no opening act."

According to MTV, Ye's handlers had no other specifics to report, though it looks like there's a great big gap in his calendar considering he has no performances on slate so far for the rest of the year.

He' mentioned also that he's working a sample of "Poker Face" into up-'n'-comer Kid Cudi's new track "I Make Her Say," which was originally titled "I Poke Her Face."

Also this week, West's rep confirmed to OK! Magazine that he's split with girlfriend Amber Rose. We would otherwise shrug, but if you'll remember, the superstar's last major breakup inspired, you guessed it, "808s & Heartbreak." Perhaps we can all expect an uptick in production.
