All Falls Down: Kanye West Ends Engagement To Fiance Alexis

Sources close to the hip-hop star say that it was West who ended the engagement after revealing to Phifer: "I just don't think it is going to work out anymore."

The 30-year-old entertainer even asked for his ring back!

The often-controversial rapper/producer got engaged to Phifer while overseas in the fall of 2006.

The two met when Phifer worked as the assistant to West's fulltime wardrobe stylist.

A graduate from the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM) in California, Phifer is working on a clothing line and has already designed some dresses that have been worn by artists like Lil' Mo.

Sources close to the couple claim she was also helping West develop his forthcoming Pastelle clothing line.

The Chicago-raised rapper had been dating Phifer on and off since 2002.
