Kanye West gatecrashed a hen party in New Orleans over the weekend.

The 'Yeezus' rapper was sat having dinner at French-Creole eatery Galatoire's in the city with a group of heavyweight names from the high-tech world, including Dropbox founder Drew Houston, when he notice another group sat a few tables away were busy celebrating an upcoming wedding.

The 37-year-old husband of Kim Kardashian West - with whom he has a child, North West - subsequently sent a bottle of Champagne to the bride-to-be and her friends, the New York Post's Page Six Column reports.

The ladies then made their way towards the table of Kanye and his friends, where the rapper ''wished the bride well and said that getting married was 'the best thing that's happened to him'''.

What's more, Kanye was happy to pose for pictures with the women, some of whom sported eye-catching metallic temporary tattoos.

Onlookers noted that Kanye was ''really nice and soft-spoken''.

This comes shortly after Kanye and his wife sparked controversy at Paris Fashion Week by reportedly showing up 40 minutes late to Lanvin's runway show.

However, the married couple insisted it was only because they were backstage with the brand's designer, Alber Elbaz.

Kanye responded to the criticism by saying: ''Don't boo us. Alber asked to see us. Don't boo us. We're not late. We're not late.''
