Dr. Donda West Approves Kanye's Fiancee

Kanye's mother, Dr.Donda West, has co-signed his relationship with Alexis Phifer. She tells People Magazine: "She's quite talented, very intelligent, very creative. Very sweet, thoughtful, generous. I can't think of one negative thing I would say about her, even in private! As for a wedding date, she says "they're so busy traveling the world and having fun that they haven't had time".



Dr. West, whose new memoir, Raising Kanye, hits shelves on Mother's Day and who has her 29-year-old son's ode to her, "Hey Mama," as the ring-back tone on her Blackberry, says she "loves" Phifer, to whom her son proposed last summer.

The couple have not yet set a wedding date because "they're so busy traveling the world and having fun that they haven't had time," says Dr. West, the former chair of the English department at Chicago State University who now works with her son as one of his managers.

And don't bring up the "e" word (elopement). "I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that I don't look up and they say, 'Come to the reception. The wedding is over!' "
