Kanye West is ready to forgive the plastic surgeon who operated on his mother just before her sudden death...but he also wants to use his mug shot as the cover of his new album. Donda West, a former university professor, died in 2007 at age 53 a day after undergoing a tummy tuck, liposuction and breast reduction performed by Dr. Jan Adams.

The report showed that Donda's death was caused by preexisting coronary artery disease and multiple post-operative factors, including pain-control medication and the tight bandaging of her chest, which...

The plastic surgeon who operated on Kanye West's mother the day before she died claims she most likely passed away from either a heart attack, embolism or accidental overdose. West's mom Donda West died in hospital on November following possible complications from a tummy tuck and breast reduction operation Dr. Jan Adams carried out the day before. And while Adams believes he knows the exact reason for Donda's passing, he is refusing to elaborate on this until a coroner confirms the official cause of death. Adams tells the Los Angeles Times newspaper, "I believe I know exactly what happened to her, but I will not comment on it until I see the final report." The surgeon adds that Donda "probably (had) a rough night" after the operation and that she could have overdosed on Vicodin he prescribed her to treat post-procedure pain. Adams then told the newspaper that he wasn't commenting on Donda's case specifically, and was instead thinking of a patient who had had similar problems. He has previously denied any responsibility for her death, insisting he has "done nothing wrong."...
