Kanye West has hired the lawyer Johnny Depp used in his defamation trial to represent his business interests, according to TMZ. Camille Vasquez represented Depp during his ex-wife Amber Heard's high-profile defamation case against him, building notoriety and developing a cult-like following with her theatrical approach.

Neither West nor Vasquez have commented on the news yet.
