Rapper Kanye West and fiancé Alexis Phifer have split up after being engaged for a year and a half. The couple dated on and off since 2002, then got engaged during a vacation on the island of Capri in August of 2006. Kanye proposed during their dinner of lobster and pasta.
The split was not surprising to mutual friends of theirs. Instead of planning their wedding, Phifer and West, both 30, continued to spend more time apart. The Grammy-winning star has been busy preparing for his nationwide "Glow in the Dark" tour and Phifer was busy launching her clothing line, Ghita.
