Rapper superstar Kanye West's mother, Donda, has been laid to rest during a private funeral in Oklahoma City.

Although the media and public were not allowed inside, fans have lined the streets to have a look inside.

The service took place at the True Vine Ministries Church in the suburb of Spencer.

Kanye West is desperate to get married. The hip-hop star, whose mother Donda died on November 10 following complications resulting from plastic surgery, has realized how precious life is and is ready to wed his fiance Alexis Phifer.

Kanye, who proposed to Alexis in May 2007, said: "I'm just going to go and get married - I'm not going to make a big deal out of it."

After canceling his appearance at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Thursday, rapper superstar Kanye West returned on stage Saturday night in Paris only to lose it in tears.

West faced the sold-out crowd at Le Zenith in Paris for more than an hour performance. He tried to introduce his song, "Hey Mama", at the end of the show when he couldn't keep up a strong facade anymore.

"This song is for my mother..." an emotional West tried to continue his tribute but failed and broke down.

Kanye West's late mother spoke frankly about being a parent just 48 hours before her death.

Dr. Donda West - who died on Saturday following a tummy tuck and breast reduction operation - spoke to radio DJ Souleo on Providence 95.5 WBRU about raising the rap star.

Will he or won't he?

Following the tragic death of his mother, rumors are rife that Kanye West has pulled out of a scheduled performance at the annual Victoria's Secret fashion show.

Jan Adams, the doctor who performed surgery on Kanye West's late mother, has sent his condolences to the West family.

The cosmetic surgeon - who is believed to have performed a tummy tuck and breast reduction on 58-year-old Dr. Donda West on Friday which may have led to her death on Saturday - has expressed his sympathy, but refused to comment on the procedure.
