Watch Kanye West audition for American Idol last year

A video of Kanye West auditioning for American Idol last year has been uploaded online.

The rapper turned up to auditions in San Francisco alongside wife Kim Kardashian in October.

Official footage of the tongue in cheek audition has now been revealed.

It sees the US star perform his 2005 song 'Golddigger'.

It seems the judges were left impressed, with Keith Urban giving West a golden ticket pass into the next round.

The new series of American Idol will premiere on January 6.

However, it will be the last time the reality TV show will be broadcast.

West meanwhile recently unveiled his new track 'Facts', which is expected to feature on his upcoming album 'Swish'.
