To the rarefied ranks of celebrity designers showing at major fashion weeks, please add one new name: Kanye West.

The rapper debuted his new clothing line in Paris, as part of the city's fashion week, on Saturday. The collection had its good points, reports the Associated Press.

Before the show, the musician, long a staple at shows, told reporters: "I'm so scared, I'm so nervous.

"The biggest conversation I hope I can end tonight is whole 'celebrity designer' thing," he said as well. "That's the biggest hurdle when you want to get amazing people to work for you."
