Kanye West's bad week got worse on Tuesday (14May13) when his new supercar got crushed between the gates at Kim Kardashian's home.

The rapper was left nursing a bruised ego and head over the weekend (11-12May13) when he walked straight into a signpost in front of hordes of photographers during a househunting trip in Beverly Hills.

A delivery of a Lamborghini Aventador, which retails at between $387,000 (£249,000) and $750,000 (£483,000), should have been enough to cheer the Stronger hitmaker up - but it was involved in a scrape as soon as it was delivered.

The vehicle was being driven through the huge wooden gates of Kardashian's home by an aide when the entrance closed early and smacked into the sides of the matt black car.

A repair shop worker was reportedly called out to try and fix the damage to the Lamborghini, according to Tmz.com.
