Kanye West Has Truly Lost It This Time
You know that saying, it takes a village to raise a child?
Apparently, Kanye's village has failed him. He obviously doesn't have a real friend in the world. There does not appear to be anyone who can get through to him, to make him understand that he needs to curb his obnoxious behavior.
I thought it was a joke when Kanye showed up on the MTV Video Music Awards stage next to Taylor Swift, right in the middle of her acceptance speech for Best Female Video for "You Belong With Me." It was the first Moon Man for the 19-year-old country starlet, who has become an equally huge star in the pop world...
"I always dreamed about what it would be like to win one of these one day," Taylor said with surprise. "I never thought it would happen."
As Taylor continued, Kanye interrupted, saying he thought Beyonce's "Single Ladies" video was wrongly overlooked. "Hey Taylor, I'm really happy for you, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time."
Taylor looked humiliated. I felt humiliated for her. The audience booed him, and gave her a standing ovation...

Kanye West doesn't care about white people.

Careful. There are people who think this behavior is perfectly acceptable. Just like pulling the focus away from drumming up support for the Red Cross to ineptly expound on your political views.
Perhaps he should do a show for the troops in Afghanistan, right in the middle of a sh!t storm of a fire fight. But I'm sure he'll admonish the American troops for defending the firebase and not listening to his hardcore rhymes and rhythms.
Is it just me or does he seem like that one relative at the family reunion that everyone dreads having to see there? You know the one nobody wants to invite but does so because they are family and all regret it later? You know, the one you parents would argue about the week before because they just knew that this person was going to do something messed up? You know the relative that all the adults would say "keep the kids away from them" or "don't let them near the alcohol"? The one relative who would show up wasted and at some point either be naked or hitting on half the family members before getting into a fight?
And also you got to say what a class act Beyonce was about the whole thing. when she won an award, instead of taking the time to do a speech, she called Taylor Swift up and told her to take center stage for what happen. Now that was great of her to do so after jerkwad showed his a$$ cause who he wanted to win didn't.
I didn't watch any of it, but kudos to Beyonce and shame on Kanye!
I recognized this guy as a tool many years ago.

You just described at least a half a dozen members of this site!! :bouncegiggle:
That was beyond rude. Swift is a kid. He's a dick.
Yeah, what a douche. :hatred:
Yea, he's truly a complete idiot. Even if you ignore the fact that it was disrespectful and juvenile, based of some of his past behavior, I'd tend to think it was also racially motivated in part at least.
"Careful. There are people who think this behavior is perfectly acceptable."
Who? ... people with NO class as well? #$@# that douche. NO class.
Stepping on that poor girl like that. Talk about stealing a moment! Grow the hell up Kanye!

QuoteWest took a long pause when Leno asked what his mother would have said about the incident. West was very close to his mother, Donda, who died in November 2007. He said yes when Leno asked whether his mother would have given him a lecture.
"So many celebrities, they never take the time off," he said. "I've never taken the time off to really — you know, just music after music and tour after tour. I'm just ashamed that my hurt caused someone else's hurt. My dream of what awards shows are supposed to be, 'cause, and I don't try to justify it because I was just in the wrong. That's period. But I need to, after this, take some time off and just analyze how I'm going to make it through the rest of this life, how I'm going to improve."
SHUT THE F*CK UP KANYE!!!
Who the hell does he think he is? So Rap and modern RnB are the be all and end all? The cream of the crop eh? I'll tell you something, if that was me I wouldn't even be at that awards show in the first place, seeing as he was he needs to behave like a man and show some damn respect....especially to a young girl! :hatred:
Kind of unrelated, but why does Taylor Swift get the award? Shouldn't it go to Roman White, the person who directed the video? Or at least, shouldn't they share it?
That's like if Russel Crowe was the one who got the Oscar for Best Picture on Gladiator.

I'd be embarrassed to get it. There haven't been any great music videos for about 15-20 years.
Is this the video in question?, that he claimed was one of "the best of all time"

Wow! Dancing in black & White! With a chair! How revolutionary! Haven't seen that before! :lookingup:
Kanye West - get the hell out of the industry right f**king now! :hatred:
No, it was this one Circus.

President Obama called him a "jackass" apparently and people are appalled at him now. Guess what...Republican or Democrat or whatever...you gotta admit he's right.

Holy crab cakes catwoman! The President isn't even allowed to have an opinion on a crappy awards show... :lookingup:

Why would people be appalled by the president calling someone who was being incredibly rude a jackass? Pretty sure that's the completely correct description...

There ya go.
We should do like a sabatoge game on the board with different threads. Have people randomly popping up saying, "I'm gonna let you finish but Beyonce had one of the greatest videos of all time." :bouncegiggle:

I already think that's a can of worms that'll be getting opened all over the place :wink:
Okay, I can chime in now. KANYE WEST = turd.
From a representative of the radical right:
Obama nailed it this time. Kudos, Mr. President! :cheers:

He is an ass****. I bet he wouldn't have tried that crap with pink. :smile: He knew that this girl wasn't going to say or do anything so he made an ass out of himself. He should be banned from future VMA awards.
Beyonce was a class act. :thumbup:

I guess there's probably a few people upset about what he said, but I think most of the controversy comes from the fact that was clearly an "off the record" remark that a television station released anyway. From what I understand, two networks ABC and another one, can't recall which, where sharing a mic feed for the interview, and the comment occurred after the official interview was over. One network did NOT release news of the comment, but another did.

Obama called him a jackass? Awesome! It is statement that everyone can agree on, no matter what party they are in!
Seriously though, Kanye West just has a history of being an assmonkey. First there's his whole "GWB doesn't care about black people" comment (funny, considering he's sent more money to Africa to combat AIDS than any previous administration in the history of the U.S.), then he appears on Rolling Stone dressed up as Jesus, making a statement about who he, "...should have been in the bible" and now this.
It's a wonder his body isn't crushed under that massive ego of his.

Kanye West is a genius and the voice of a generation....
My friends and I have been making fun of Kanye forever now, his ego is so easy to make fun of. We often drive down the road listening to the first few seconds of "Champion" for a good laugh. BTW, the lyrics are Person: Did you realize, that you are a champion in their eyes? Kanye: Yes I did.
