Jared Leto and Kanye West have struck up a friendship at Paris Fashion Week, where the actor was spotted making the rapper laugh.

The unlikely pair appear to have shared more than polite “hellos” when they met at the Vogue Paris 95th anniversary party on October 3 in the French capital.

“Moi et Kanye á #Paris :)” Jared wrote after their meeting.

Kanye – known for his sullen expressions – was photographed putting his hands on the Oscar-winning actor’s shoulders as he broke out into a huge grin, as Jared, sporting pink hair, was talking.

Or could it be that Jared is practising for his Suicide Squad role of the Joker, aka the Clown Prince of Crime?

Kanye was with his sister-in-law Kendall Jenner, mother-in-law Kris Jenner and her boyfriend Corey Gamble.

Other celebrity guests at the party included Rihanna, who wore a sheer flowing white dress, and Gigi Hadid.
