Does this mean the feud is over?  Three days after Kanye West waged war on Jimmy Kimmel, the rapper deleted more than a dozen tweets blasting the Jimmy Kimmel Live! host. The hip-hop heavyweight, 36, is currently attending Paris Fashion Week with girlfriend Kim Kardashian.

West began bashing Kimmel on Thursday, Sept. 26, after he learned that the comedian hired child actors to reenact his BBC Radio 1 interview with Zane Lowe. Using profane language and all capital letters, the musician criticized Kimmel's looks, talent and integrity.

"SHOULD I DO A SPOOF ABOUT YOUR FACE OR YOU F--KING BEN AFFLECK…#NODISRESPECTTOBENAFFLECK #ALLDISRESPECTTOJIMMYKIMMEL!!!!" the musician wrote in one tweet. West was, of course, referring to Kimmel's 2008 music video response to then-girlfriend Sarah Silverman's "F*@#ing Matt Damon" music video.

Kimmel addressed the commentary on his ABC show Sept. 26, which prompted West to retaliate via Twitter the next day. He retweeted articles and even the paparazzi "bloodsucking mosquitos." Kimmel, meanwhile, tweeted, "I challenge you to a rap battle @kanyewest #Iplaytheclarinet."

West's tweets regarding Kimmel disappeared on Sunday, Sept. 29. It appears he's made a habit of scrubbing his Twitter page, as only 33 tweets remain since he joined in July 2010.
