Kanye West Calls His Taylor Swift VMAs Outburst “Rude” on “Leno”

Since Jay Leno announced the first-ever musical guest on his new The Jay Leno Show would be Jay-Z with Rihanna and Kanye West a few weeks ago, anticipation has been building for what was to be the “Umbrella” star’s return to the spotlight — her first major televised appearance since she was assaulted by then-boyfriend Chris Brown in February.

But all eyes were on Leno tonight for an unexpected reason: Kanye West. After igniting a firestorm of controversy by invading the MTV Video Music Awards stage last night to protest Beyoncé’s loss of Best Female Video to Taylor Swift, West spent most of the day uncharacteristically under the radar, posting an apology on his blog in which he said he felt as awkward as Ben Stiller in Meet the Parents. On Leno, West was greeted by cheers. He apologized, called his actions on the VMAs “rude,” and vowed to take time off to address personal problems that may have led to his unexpected rant.

Leno thanked West for appearing on his show despite the drama, and added that West wanted to take the opportunity to speak to the public. Saying his day had been “extremely difficult,” West acknowledged he had spent the afternoon “dealing with the fact that I hurt someone or took anything away from a talented artist.” Reflecting on the few seconds that got him booted from MTV’s ceremony at Radio City Musical Hall, West said he knew his stunt had gone awry “As soon as I gave the mic back to her and she didn’t keep going.”

Adding that he has spent his life trying to help people, West said, “My entire life, I’ve only wanted to give and do something that I felt was right. And I immediately knew in the situation that it was wrong, and it wasn’t a spectacle … it’s actually someone’s emotions, you know, that I stepped on.”

West concluded that his outburst was “rude, period” and said he wishes to apologize to Swift in person. When Leno asked West what his deceased mother, Donda, what would have said about this situation, West looked wounded and took a moment to respond, wiping his forehead as Leno pressed on, asking if she’d give him a lecture.

“I deal with hurt. And, you know, so many celebrities, they never take the time off. I’ve never taken the time off to really — you know, just music after music and tour after tour,” he said, perhaps referring to his next project — his upcoming jaunt with Lady Gaga, which announced its first four dates on Friday, before the VMAs.

“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. Because I am a celebrity, and that’s something I have to deal with,” he said.

Noting he was simply “ashamed that my hurt caused someone else’s hurt” West tried to reach out to Swift, offering to do anything he could to help the young star in the future. “I want to live this thing,” he concluded.

West then put on his shades and joined Jay-Z and Rihanna for a performance of Jay’s The Blueprint 3 single “Run This Town,” as the three had performed it at Jigga’s 9/11 benefit last Friday in New York. Unlike the boos he got last night, West received cheers when he finished his verse, and the crowd gave the trio a warm reception as they ended the track.

Tell Kanye West that it’s also rude to ask to be on someone’s show, and then not bother to prepare your remarks. Watching you sit is not entertaining. Again, this is about you, without regard to Jay or his audience!

KANYES A BITCH | 9/14/2009, 11:00 pm EST

FUCK KANYE AND JAY LENO. I USED TO LIKE JAY LENO, BUT FUCK HIM, NEVER WATCHING HIS SHOW AGAIN. HE SHOULD OF NEVER LET THAT PRICK GAY FISH MOTHERFUCKER ON HIS SHOW AT ALL. FUCK KANYE AND FUCK JAYS GAY FUCKING SHOW.

luke | 9/14/2009, 11:03 pm EST

I thought it was a genuine and heartfelt recovery. You could tell Ye was hurt, embarrassed, and ashamed. Kudos to him for doing this and I hope he sticks with his word and makes amends.

luke | 9/14/2009, 11:04 pm EST

Apology, not recovery. My bad.

Chosen Starr | 9/14/2009, 11:05 pm EST

He’s awful. Nothing more to say. I wish we would all ignore him. Nothing more than empty publicity stunts and he doesn’t give a RIP who he hurts.

kanye, good point, bad time. Just make good music and shut the f*ck up for now on. You will still do good things in music.

sean | 9/14/2009, 11:07 pm EST

Screw him everybody should boycott all his future

jrl | 9/14/2009, 11:07 pm EST

Kanye has only wanted to give to others his whole life? Jesus, what a crock of shit. This douche bag has only thought about himself since day one and has proven it time and time again. The studio audience should be collectively bitch slapped for applauding his dumb ass

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 11:07 pm EST

Too little too late Kanye! There are some things you can’t attempt to apologize for (a lame attempt at best). I can still see that broken-hearted girl standing there as you ranted. It was the most disgusting display of arrogance I’ve ever seen. Alcohol or drug abuse does not excuse it. I love your music Kanye, but I hope your career is over, and I will never listen to your songs again.

kanye west is an asshole and should just take himself out of the music business while he’s still ahead. IF he had any fans left before this, he certainly doesn’t now. Except maybe for the heartless ones who are just like him.

luke | 9/14/2009, 11:09 pm EST

Oh please. Taylor Swift said she loves Kanye and his music and said she had fun. She’s not broken-hearted.

viewer | 9/14/2009, 11:09 pm EST

what a puff piece.

mentioning the crowd reaction at jay leno’s first show and implying it is anything but the captive studio aud response that is fully handled by the shows director is foolish. send this reporter back to school or to the Kanye fan club meeting from which he came.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 11:11 pm EST

Classless, talentless, worthless piece of humanity. He’s only sorry that his career just ended. Never should have had one in the first place

I wonder if the audience was coached to cheer beforehand. A real audience would have booed him off the stage.

anonymous | 9/14/2009, 11:13 pm EST

kanye will forever be a force to be wreckened with… no matter what people say they will still buy his albums, there are some people who feel he was right but it was still wrong to do that cuz she really did deserve that award..

joanthad | 9/14/2009, 11:13 pm EST

i did not want to watch that mad man kayne west so i watched Mad Men instead. oh my an apology, what a surprise, who could have guessed that. cheer a drunken racist, not me. good ratings or not the numbers could have been better.

YOYO | 9/14/2009, 11:13 pm EST

Ya’ll are all retarted! Kanye was scheduled to be on this show for about two weeks now!! It just happened that this show was after his stunt last night. I think he is not civilized and an ignorant bastard but I could definitely tell he felt bad

Suburbanconcern | 9/14/2009, 11:14 pm EST

What a tool. Go away.. donate your entire fortune to charity and then go take a long walk off a short pier. Leno also should have thought about having someone like this on his show. I will no longer watch him.

Sheila | 9/14/2009, 11:14 pm EST

Kanye is such an actor. He’s not sorry for what he did to Taylor. He even said on his blog that Beyonce should’ve won. He’s just trying to cover his butt because he realizes his career is over and the public is not going to forgive him. Jay Z and that whole clan are a dysfunctional mess. Just boycott that entire group of thugs.

HEAVENS | 9/14/2009, 11:14 pm EST

I USE TO LIKE KANYE BUT,AFTER SEEING THE VMAS,HE LOST MAD COOL POINTS WITH ME. KANYE NEEDS TO GROW UP,AND STOP BITCHIN EVERYTIME SOMETHING DOESNT GO HIS WAY,KANYE STOP CRYIN AND PULL YOUR DRESS BACK DOWN,GROW AH SET AND GET OVER IT!!!

you all call him ridiculous then you blog about it. We are giving it undeserved attention. Taylor,you’ll live. Everyone has been crushed in some way

Jay Leno is a spineless wimp for letting that megalomaniac on his show. If he had real courage and integrity he would have taken a stand and left West knocking on the stage door. His reputation as a nice guy is all an act. He’s just another Hollywood whore.

Griggs | 9/14/2009, 11:16 pm EST

Hey bitches if Swift moved don’t you think you should. Don’t hate all your life.

I bought it. Kanye made a big BIG mistake and admits it. It was a real apology and not scripted. It was heartfelt. I give him shelter from the storm.

name | 9/14/2009, 11:17 pm EST

Ok Kanye West had one bad day and he said his apology and he is going to take time to realize what he has donw to Swift. If she accepted his apology then we all should. When people make other people mad they try to gain there trust back we need to give Kanye a chance, he is human like the rest of us.

whoa | 9/14/2009, 11:17 pm EST

u guys are so quick to judge…u want is career to be over for this? i mean yea that was a douche move and it was wrong but shit. hes not fuckin chris brown. if the man apologized just move on nobodys judgin u layoff

Christopher | 9/14/2009, 11:18 pm EST

Everyone needs to chill now, boycotting is taking it too far, he was sincere and genuine why keep talking slick about a mans mistake, remember only God can judge us, im pretty sure everyone including myself had mad a bad mistake in there lives and ask for forgiveness am I wrong?… point blank it was tasteless last night but we can forgive the man. He still has my support.

kanye west is a f–king ahole. period.

georgiagirl | 9/14/2009, 11:19 pm EST

Kanye is an assbite on a dirty, crusty, smelly camel crack. Why on earth do we put up with him? He’s rude, lewd and crude. No amount of talent makes up for his bad behaviour. He should just silently slip away and hopefully we can just forget him but never forgive him. Beyonce you have class girl. And Miss Taylor, you are simply outstanding amongst the best.

Rachelle | 9/14/2009, 11:19 pm EST

Very sincere apology… he obviously has alot of personal problems to take care of. Yea he messed up big time last night, but I love him still!

Wondering why we are all so quick to judge, as if we have never did something wrong as if anybody in this world has ever been without sin(aside from Jesus) as if none of you made a mistake… Just chill leave that man be… He made a mistake He apologized… let it go

Kanye is forgiven | 9/14/2009, 11:22 pm EST

No matter what we say it’s completely up to Taylor to forgive him he is a great artist.. you all are nobody he will still make his money regardless and he will still sell albums why because he is a fucking genius… that’s the problem with society now so quick to throw someone out to dry get a fucking life all of you assholes the man made a mistake… only god can judge him…

Apology Not accepted! You need more than time off, go to rehab and sensitivity training and learn what a real apology is. Until then, you are just another low life flea ridden dirt dog!

collins | 9/14/2009, 11:22 pm EST

kanye z a very great and talented guy, and just like you and myself he has his shortcomings. we are all so stupid, and think that celebrities should be perfect; thats very unfair….. kanye would continue to go from strength to strength after this, and of course would get into more controversies, so yall just get used to it

Tracey | 9/14/2009, 11:22 pm EST

Seriously…what kind of person jacks a special ONCE IN A LIFETIME MOMENT from a 17 yr old KID…only a true douchebag! I think they just need to stop inviting him to these big appearances. Obviously he cant put his big-boy pants on for a few hours and act like an adult instead of a spoiled little jackass. A million apologies cant give her back the moment he stole and how that felt to her. FUCK HIM!

Kanye thinks it’s all about him. He can’t stand not being the centre of attention. His behaviour reflects that, which makes his apology pointless.

Kanye is a truly talented and special artist. He made a mistake–a huge one. However, we have all made mistakes. I know Taylor and she forgives hims; so should the rest of the world. Get over it–you know you love both Taylor and Kanye.

Focus your energy on helping Obama pass healthcare reform with a real public option.

Man he apoligized already n he means it he doesn’t need you to listen to his music he has plenty of people dat listen to his music dat wouldn’t care if he did sum stunt like dat he’s jus too gud at it. Your actin like you never been drunk lol. Dat was bogus tho.

I don’t buy it. I’m going to boycott him because this isn’t the first time he’s done this. Sorry, but his mother wasn’t dead when he did this twice before.

He thinks he’s entitled to do that because of his fame. Sorry, not buying it. He has impulse issues and he’s dead to me.

cocoa is on cocaine | 9/14/2009, 11:26 pm EST

Cocoa?? Are you as stupid and moronic (that means you are a moron) as you sound??? Kanye is a class act? have you listened to his lyrics?? Here.. let me school you… ” Bow in the presence of greatness. You should be honored by my lateness that I would even show up to this fake shit” Oh and ps.. have you seen ANY of his rants?? besides this one?? he is not a class act?

Taylor Swift? | 9/14/2009, 11:26 pm EST

Kanye is my dude and I agree with Cash… Who the heck is Taylor Swift… Is she with the power puff girls or sum?!?

Pete | 9/14/2009, 11:27 pm EST

Taylor Swift was voted the winner. That as***** KW had no business inserting himself in to what should have been a great win for another artist. His ego has no bounds. Everything in the world isn’t about you, KW.

James | 9/14/2009, 11:27 pm EST

This is pathetic. Death threats, hate, removal of music, loss of support for Kanye. You are all taking it too damn far. this doesnt concern all of you butt hurt people. Most of you didnt give a lick about Swift until this happened. This is about taylor and kanye. whcih taylor is not nearly as upset as you all are. Chill Out, At least he apoligized something that people have a hard time doing anyway. I cant stand kanye but people are jumping over him like he killed swift and ended her, She still has a future.

katiegil | 9/14/2009, 11:27 pm EST

fuck kanye and fuck anyone who likes that little bitch. If Pac and Biggie were still around rap would not be bitchmade. Fuck all these little pussy ass whimps. Try to pull some shit like that on a Westcoast artist kanye and your mouth is gonna be wired shut again muthafuka….

cookie | 9/14/2009, 11:28 pm EST

It was so hurtful to see Taylor Swift standing on the stage after Kanye’s outburst, but it was also painful to see Kanye West appearing on Leno as a broken man. He has obviously never dealt with the sudden death of his mother and it just seems like he has gone way down hill ever since. I hope Taylor is okay and I hope Kanye takes the time off that he needs.

Larry | 9/14/2009, 11:28 pm EST

What Kanye did was very wrong! But tell me why so many people are so adament about him dropping his career and ‘F’ him and bleep him and all of that. Where was this whole reaction when Chris Brown basically beat Rihanna into a concussion? Hmmm, shame to say it, but could a little of black guy disses white girl while standing up for black girl on National T.V.? Just a thought? It’s not anywhere near what Chris Brown did, and Kanye is getting way worse of a berating in the public eye! Hmm, strange to me! And I’m not even prejudice against black people at all either!

Get over it... | 9/14/2009, 11:28 pm EST

Okay, IDK what ANYONE thinks…I am over MY Kanye anger!!! The man made a STUPID mistake (who hasn’t)! The man recently lost his mom and MOST of America has been calling him names (especially since last night)! Seriously…how much CAN 1 human endure w/o being homicidal or suicidal…I thought his first apologies were whack, but on Leno’s Show I saw pain & sincerity! Forgiveness is god’s way, who are WE to judge???

lee tidwell | 9/14/2009, 11:28 pm EST

Kanye… WHAT A LOSER…He should be boycotted ever where the low life shows his racist ass

profWHTml | 9/14/2009, 11:29 pm EST

Kanya is a Dick. Would he have done that to a man recieving an award? I doubt it. she should have kicked him right in the balls. What a punk.

Daniel | 9/14/2009, 11:29 pm EST

This is an obvious PR attempt (failed) at best.
Involving his dead mother was completely pointless (staged. do you honestly believe Leno wanted to ask?) and only proves he and/or his “people” know what the situation is… Kanye, meet Chris Brown.

Pinks | 9/14/2009, 11:29 pm EST

Haters all!!!! All of you are just jealous cause he’s got game and none of you have any!!! Stop with the phony outrage, that white girl doesn’t want any of you dumb ass “anonymous” losers!!!

Kanye is cool | 9/14/2009, 11:30 pm EST

Haha, Thats true I never knew who Taylor Swift was until this… He Low key did her a favor

Mory | 9/14/2009, 11:30 pm EST

That was the most non apology I’ve seen since Chris Brown on Larry King. “Oh, I’m such a celebrity, I just have to deal with such things”. What a creep.

Look Chris Brown hit a woman and that went away real quick. Does everyone hate him for that?? Probably not. But people should. Kanye West just had an outburst at the wrong moment and time. Yeah it was embarassing to watch and he was a real jack ass for doing it but if people can let go a serious event such as Chris Brown beating Rhianna, then surely they will let this one slide.

Bob | 9/14/2009, 11:31 pm EST

It’s easy and takes less effort to forgive. If this were his only offense, then yes we should all move on. However, this guy is a repeat offender … I don’t think he was sorry about what he did to another artist but he is sorry how this may effect his career. I plan to turn the channel when his music comes on as he is a disappointment.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 11:34 pm EST

Like J said most would have cancelled, as he had the balls to interrupt Taylor last night, he hsd em to sicerely apologize…the hero however is Beyonce

Say wha | 9/14/2009, 11:35 pm EST

Might be good idea for Kanye to address his drinking. I mean, since we’re all taking a moment to tear him down, then I might as well say it: The guy needs to get some help. People don’t do stuff like that without some serious fuel.

funny how things play out. | 9/14/2009, 11:36 pm EST

its funny cuz everyones mad at him including me but look at the results.
Taylor Swift: Now America’s Favorite Sweetheart.
Kanye West: America’s Favorite Asshole.
its not like he called her a bitch cut him some slack hes human.
think if you had over 12 million people hating you.
chill.
and chill wit the mom comments.
thats his fuckin mom who died; what if yours died??? exactly.
i hated what he did, but in the end you all are just bein even worse.

Julie | 9/14/2009, 11:37 pm EST

To all those who ignorantly state “Taylor Swift” was nobody before this, you might want to note that she sold over 3 million records this last year, more than any recording artist, and twice as many as Kanye. She also writes the majority of her lyrics, lyrics which have touched millions of people, ones they can relate to. I have been a fan of Kanye’s and purchase his music in the past and will be willing to support him in the future if he chooses the right path.

Christi | 9/14/2009, 11:38 pm EST

Coa coa does cocaine is your name and you are talking about classless people…You are promoting the devil on earth…
Some nerve…Plus u know his lyrics so well yet u don’t like his music. I don’t like Green Day~ I know not 1 of their lyrics…Love Kanye or Hate Kanye ~~ y’all sure love to talk about him. That is FAME. I love you Kanye through good times and bad. Thanks for owning ur mistakes man.

Alex | 9/14/2009, 11:38 pm EST

Everyone who says we are too quick to judge isn’t really grasping the whole scope of this. It’s common knowledge that Kanye is an arrogant jerk-bag who thinks he’s the most important think to ever grace this Earth. This ridiculously rude faux pas just confirms this.

Who the hell is he to say which video should win? Simply because the video HE thought was best wasn’t chosen, he seems to think he has the right to tell us all “what’s what.”

Kanye does nothing for humanity and claims he is helping people. All he cares about is money for himself. I hope he has his balls cut off and has to watch as Eddy Curry steps on them.

georgiagirl | 9/14/2009, 11:39 pm EST

Boo-Hoo……… poor Kanye. His mama died so we give him a pass on civility and social morality. It’s always the first thing addicts say when they sober up. ‘Please forgive me. I am in so much pain. It’s all about me, me, me. How I feel’ BUT THEY KEEP DOING THE SAME THING! Kanye needs to get clean & sober and grown the fuck up. Stop his whinning and sniveling. The world does not revolve around his drunken pathetic dumbass.

I used to adore and loved all your hip hop songs. In fact, I had all your songs on my I-tunes until last night; I deleted all of your lyrics on I-tunes. I was extremely shocked; the entire world was shock of your arrogant, disrupted, immature, comments about a young female artist who is just starting her music career. You are a disgrace to the world, especially to the young generation. This shows a perfect example how you treat young children; putting them down, you are just a heartless, immature, angry person who wants to have all that attention in the world. I hope one day you will find love, peace, and happiness in your heart.

yee | 9/14/2009, 11:40 pm EST

kanye did her a favor? lulz

nick | 9/14/2009, 11:43 pm EST

ok… the only reason he is apologizing is because he realized that everyone including celebrities are angry at him…. He did the same thing at the european mtv awards when he didnt win an award. he also had a meltdown during the 2007 vma backstage when he didnt win best new artist.

Matt2626 | 9/14/2009, 11:45 pm EST

Guys, We all make mistakes.. He’ll go in rehab probably and mature one day..didn’t know he was that stupid btw..lol. Too much EGO can kill a guy …!! He just need help..

By the way you do not belong in the music industry. I hope that MTV and all of the award shows would banned your for good! They don’t need your money because there are FAR more talented and great music artist out there in the world who appreciate the love of music. Kanye, you need to grow up, attend ANGER MANAGEMENT AND ETIQUITE classes that will teach you some good mannerism. An apology does not cut it at all. The world will never forgive and forget what you commented last night!

To all of you that think we are too quick to judge Kanya. We have that right to judge him based on the fact that we put him in that position. Without the public buying records he made, he wouldn’t be where he is now. He disrespected everyone! Kanya you must now step down. Give your spot to someone that really respects how he came to be. And learn how to appologize. And Mr. Leno, you lost my respect acting like Kanya did such a great thing coming on your show. Come on man? This was a bad move on your part! When people like you have such fame and fortune and just pretend like it was spilt milk, I just scratch you guys off the like list.

We saw a man hit bottom and heard a classy woman’s response today. Ya Kanye is arrogant but on Leno tonight ,which he was booked for, he is taking stock with how he has been spiraling out of control.
Taylor Swift at 19 has handled this with maturity beyond her years…

Diane | 9/14/2009, 11:57 pm EST

No matter what was behind his reason, this little stunt will boost both of their careers.

G | 9/14/2009, 11:58 pm EST

This has nothing to do with Chris Brown and his enormous career ending mistakes he made. It is about Kanye West’s mistake and how he embarassed and ruined Taylor’s moment. Kanye is racist and has proved time and time again how racist he is. If the table was turned and a white musician treated Beyonce that way, he’d be the first one raising hell about how racist it was. Let’s take a moment to step outside the box and call it really what it is….Racism!

Taylor | 9/14/2009, 11:58 pm EST

Kanye who ? And we know you from ?

Mayu | 9/14/2009, 11:59 pm EST

I love how people are defending Kanye all of a sudden.

Look, this is who he is. He’s the guy who, when he’s suppose to be drawing people of all races together to raise money for ALL people hurt by hurricane Katrina, turned it into a race thing with “Bush hates black people.”

he’s the dude that threw a hissy fit when he didn’t win a VMA a previous year.

He’s the same guy who had a temper tantrum when a rival’s album beat his out.

he’s a punk. Plain and simple he’s a punk who thinks the world revolves around him, and that his talent is the ultimate.

His first “apology” was his true apology… where he apologized for ruining her moment, but he was “keeping it real” and that Beyonce deserved to win.

it was another slap in the face to the poor kid he already humiliated once, and THATS why he’s showing regret now, because even his fans are calling him out on it.

Look, Swift EARNED the right to be there. She actually holds the RECORD for the most top 20 debuts in a calendar year. So she deserved that award just as much as Beyonce deserved the award for best all time video.

it was Swift’s first VMA ever. She’s a teenaged kid, she was excited, her mom was excited, her fans were thrilled.

it wasn’t her fault she won, the fans voted for her.

Kanye pulled a punk move and humiliated her, and robbed her of a moment she won fair and square, robbed her family and friends of the thrill of the moment.

you can’t get that back with a half a$$ed apology, followed by a real apology because you are humiliated into doing the right thing.

Too little too late for a man who is CONSTANTLY doing stupid punk things.

You can only make excuses for him for so long before you have to say, “you know, it was one thing to act a fool during a charity telethon… it’s one thing to act a fool when you feel you were cheated out of an award… but come on, to act a fool and rob a kid of her moment, to make a young girl cry in humiliation… that’s where we draw the line. Grow up and stop acting a fool.”

He only made this “sincere” and slightly incoherent apology on Leno because even his fans were po’ed at his punkness.

Too bad some of Beyonce’s class and grace didn’t rub off on him before the show.

WHO? | 9/14/2009, 11:59 pm EST

Kanye? who are these idiots saying they don’t know taylor swift,she’s easily tripled this guys earnings.I tht this hip hop shit ended with snoop?

michelle | 9/14/2009, 11:59 pm EST

what kanye west did was wrong..even though I do believe Beyonce deserved the award he didn’t have a right to take away Taylor Swifts spot light like that.. but I am not going to hate Kanye, he’s human people make mistakes..act without thinking and yeah he has done it a few times but thats part of who he is..he speaks from his mind and people can hate him but alls I know is that he is one of the most talented rappers and I am going to continue to listen to his music and not judge him for a few things he has done because it doesn’t change the fact that his music is fucking amazing.

Girl in Nashville | 9/14/2009, 11:59 pm EST

He said he sorry! Taylor could have reacted better. She acted a little spoiled to me. She could have smiled and keep on talking.

Glen | 9/15/2009, 12:00 am EST

I was angry at Kanye for lacking the simple human decency of empathizing with another human being’s moment of joy. He stole something important that cannot be returned. Taylor is successful and certainly did not need the publicity. The joy of winning of savoring her first cross-over award on MTV cannot be replaced. On the other hand, I am even more troubled by the vitriolic homophobia and racism I hear many of these posts. I am a white, male, heterosexual who finds such language dumbfounding and disturbing.

Missy | 9/15/2009, 12:03 am EST

I think Kayne did something we have all done in our life, he acted without thinking and then knew after he acted it was wrong, who has not done that in their life? I know I sure have. Yes, it hurt someones feelings, but everyone has had their feelings hurt and just because you are a celebrity does not mean you wont get your feelings hurt or that you wont make a mistake. I am 41 years old and have made mistakes and been hurt, it is natural it is life. I believe this man is sorry for what he did and if he could change it he would. Show some understanding, he is only human .

Judy | 9/15/2009, 12:03 am EST

Kayne is a spoiled little brat who thinks his opinion is the only one that matters. Thank goodness young, talented Taylor Swift has class and will put that behind her. Kayne, time to grow up and be a man!

Angela | 9/15/2009, 12:03 am EST

Judy | 9/15/2009, 12:10 am EST

Kayne also said on Jay Leno, “My hurt, my dream of what award shows were supposed to be caused someone else’s hurt”. So basically, because he feels that Beyonce should have won that award – that the award show wasn’t fair. Kayne – why are you the authority on video’s or music? You are too self centered and egotistical to see outside of your small little box.

Toni | 9/15/2009, 12:10 am EST

All of our comments and opinions are meaningless. End of the day?? Neither of them know any of us or care, so berating each other is completely worthless. Those of us taking either side are doing just what “they” want.

There is a time delay when broadcasting live, if this really was truly “live.” Funny how the network just let this situation “slide.”

Kanye West? A man with no class. People quit making excuses for this loser!!

Todd | 9/15/2009, 12:12 am EST

Kanye’s ego has been out of control from the beginning. It doesn’t matter how famous he is, MOST people don’t respect him because of his arrogant attitude, and this was just icing on the cake. (I say MOST people, because some seem to support what Kanye did at the VMA’s? They’re just as fucking stupid as he is, except they don’t have any talent or money to back it up. Go kill yourself Kanye + Kanye supporters.)

Taylor | 9/15/2009, 12:13 am EST

Mike D | 9/15/2009, 12:14 am EST

If you have not heard of Taylor Swift before last night you must be under a very large rock in the desert. Top selling artist of last year. Under a moon rock!

As for Kanye, they apology was weak, it was the only thing he could do in the situation he put himself in as a person. Taylor is 19 and a GREAT role model for children. Kanye is a loser with very little talent. He still uses his mother’s death as an excuse even though it has been almost 2 years. There are tons of people that live with much worse and would never do what he did, I am sure in attendance.

Fame is not an excuse to act like he does repeatedly. He is a nobody. Never liked him, never will.

Bobby | 9/15/2009, 12:14 am EST

i am so ashamed to even admit that i listen to his songs!

what he did was DUMB and the fact that he expected taylor to continue with her speech after that was DUMBER!!! what does he want her to do? thank him for being uneducated?

im so disgusted that i bought his music…i want a refund!!!!!

Angel | 9/15/2009, 12:17 am EST

I was shocked when it happened but he did say sorry and its time to let it go. Its not gonna stop anyone from buying his or her cds. He said something stupid on tv just like a lot of people. Just let it go.

Mike | 9/15/2009, 12:18 am EST

It’s sad when something like this is what gets people fired up these days.

Who cares? It’s the freakin VMAs. Taylor Swift is going to sell 10x more songs on iTunes now.

Mike D | 9/15/2009, 12:18 am EST

Ohh, Jay Leno, he should have not let Kanye on the show. He would have been just fine without him but hey Leno needs this show to do well, it will not in prime time no matter what he allows.

Comparisons to C. Brown, A JOKE! Brown has TONS more talent and people really liked him but he did something worse. Still, many people did not like Kayne already because of his prior stunts and terrible attitude, maybe lack of talent fits. This will hurt his career and Taylor will continue to win awards and sell tons of albums long after Kanye is long gone.

Youre right he just lost his mother… well a lot of people lose family members close to them… you dont see them going out and disrespecting other people the way he did. He cant hide behind his loss forever… he should be ashamed to be using that to justify his horrible actions. ITS JUST FUCKING DISGUSTING AND “GOD” HAS NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH IT

Hey if they can be that classy, I hope we, the Pinks, Kelly Clarksons, Trumps, etc., can be just a classy as these two ladies are. Heck I’ve seen us forgive people who have done things way more worse than Kanye did Sunday night. He asked for forgiveness, it time ti give it to him, pray he matures and become a better person from this, and move on.

Joey | 9/15/2009, 12:31 am EST

I think what Kanye West did was inappropriate but I also think it’s been blown waaaaaaay waaaaaaaaaaaay waaaaaaaaaaaay out of proportion. When I heard the news and the way people were in a frenzy about it today, I thought Kanye had murdered someone. Just shows what a lack of stories this country has to talk about when we’re treating some music artist like a criminal for interrupting some musician who’s probably in a mansion right now living it up while everyone is mourning how she had to be interrupted. Rolls eyes!

Joey I agree! Actually, It’s hard for me to even pay attention to what Kanye did. I can look at a video of it without seeing anti-Black racist comments in the commenting section of the videos. If a Black person does something bad in this country, for some reason it seems to elicit anti-Black racism. Perhaps that’s why this has been blown out of proportion. Albeit, Kanye’s actions deserve reproach, nothing to the extent of the behavior Americans have given him all day today. What happened today was outrageous and Americans should be ashamed of themselves. And for christ sake! Someone in authority over this country do something about internet use and the anti-Black racism it’s infested with from all the racists.

Jan | 9/15/2009, 12:36 am EST

Kanye just has a big mouth to match his big ego, and he thinks that everyone cares about what he has to say. Well that is awfully wrong, and it is sure messed up that he had to open his big mouth to disrespect a young gal. Unfortunately no matter how much Kanye apolagizes this will not be the last rant that we will here from that egotistical maniac. Just go become a legend and die already Kanye!!!

Janice | 9/15/2009, 12:36 am EST

I personally believe what Kayne West did to Taylor Swift was wrong and it will become Kaynes celebrity suicide. He quite evidently was thinking with the wrong head cause all Beyonce did was dance in panties to her song. So that was either a racially motivated stunt or he has a fixation with Beyonce. So I will say this to Beyonce I wouldnt be left alone with this guy. No telling what the voices in his head might tell him to do.

Gina | 9/15/2009, 12:37 am EST

Obviously the personal problem he needs to deal with is the drinking….I can’t believe he brought a bottle of Hennesy to the VMA’s that is just very unprofessional….he does need to take time off to reflect on his actions since he’s been a celebrity because all he has ever done is cry about everything…..realize your ego is too big and pop it now!

peace | 9/15/2009, 12:39 am EST

WoW its crazy to read all the comments and see how horrible people are. You are mad because of what Kanye did but you are judging him right back? An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. Sometimes people have to hit rock bottom to change. I have never met a perfect person, we all need to grow and learn.

babyortega | 9/15/2009, 12:54 am EST

It sounds like he is trying to make everyone pity him for his actions… What he did was totally not nice and I bet Taylor was really upset. Yes, I do agree that he is human but it is not an excuse to humiliate someone on national television. I don’t think “sorry” is enough. He should be paying that girls way towards anything that she wants… or maybe a lawsuit?

Jane | 9/15/2009, 1:04 am EST

What Kanye did was so tacky. To steal such an important moment in someone elses life. Does the man have to be in the spot light all the time? Get over yourself “little man west.”

I don’t think they listen to Taylor Swift as much as you guys do( not saying that she is a bad artist). I just think you need to listen to his music…say its crap if you dont like…or say its good if you like it…and then move on. + I dont think Kanye or Swift read these kinds of topics much when there busy making great music.

Kanye West might have been put up to do that stunt by higher authorities. However, this one spectacle of his backfired big time, this time. The 19-year-old Country singing star was not in on the joke. True feelings were hurt and Taylor Swift was left on the stage humiliated. I guess Kanye West thinks that all he has to do is make yet another apology and everyone will just forget about this one, also. This time I’m not so sure.

I wont say his actions were justified but Taylor Swift does not belong in the VMA’s. She won award that was clearly meant for Beyonce. When is the last time you seen a black man or a latino on the Country Music Awards winning an award over a white person. Lets be real. For you individuals who are white you cannot relate how life is for Latinos and African Americans

ej | 9/15/2009, 1:24 am EST

i agree with peace. we shouldn’t judge this guy,because i doubt any of you haven’t done a wrong to someone. I myself have done wrong to people. It doesn’t mean that we have to judge kanye either. I do think he was jerk in what he did,but we gotta learn to forgive.

hoopla circus show | 9/15/2009, 1:26 am EST

Kanye should have at least prepared what he was going to say before going on Leno (without reading off a piece of paper of course). For a guy who grew up in an affluent, upper-middle class suburb and whose mom was an English college professor, he is shockingly inarticulate. And considering how much he LOVES to open his big mouth, you’d think being able to string together a coherent sentence shouldn’t be a problem for him, but apparently not. Even if his apology was sincere, not many people are gonna buy it because a) this isn’t the first time he’s done it and b) his apology was quite poor. He didn’t say anything that made much sense. “My entire life, I’ve only wanted to give and do something that I felt was right. And I immediately knew in the situation that it was wrong, and it wasn’t a spectacle … it’s actually someone’s emotions, you know, that I stepped on.” “I deal with hurt. And, you know, so many celebrities, they never take the time off. I’ve never taken the time off to really — you know, just music after music and tour after tour,” . Dude, whatever happened to a simple “I acted like the biggest dick ever, and I totally ruined what was supposed to be Taylor’s moment for no reason at all, so for that I apologize”? That would’ve been honest, to the point and sincere. No stuttering or blubbering his way through. At least Hugh Grant did a better job of amending himself on the Tonight Show. Speaking of which, no one threatened to boycott Leno when he had Hugh on his show. But apparently ruining another person’s acceptance speech is a hundred times worse for some people than cheating on your girlfriend with a prostitute and getting caught.

Deletta | 9/15/2009, 1:33 am EST

Damn straight Kanye should take time to reflect on himself, time to grow up and be a man, not a jackass. All you Taylor Swift haters are just Kanye fans. You should grow up, too and think about what it means. Or is that asking too much, jackasses?

krista | 9/15/2009, 1:50 am EST

What is up with someone saying taylor is a spoiled little white girl??? Spoiled r u kidding me she is one of the very few artists now a days that actually truely cares about the fans and gets them involved as much as possible. For example she gave all of her fans that were waiting free pizza and chocolate milk, so she spent her money on them and is constently doing nice things like that. How many artists do u hear of who do things like that?? I’ve gotten the chance to meet her a couple yrs ago at one of her concerts and I can say she is so nice and sweet, u could tell she wanted to meet as many fans as she could and she didn’t just sign a pic and that was it she complimited ppl and vocaly said how appreciative she was of the support, defenetly one of the nicest ppl I’ve met. If that’s spoiled then all those other celebrities must be horrible asshole ppl lol! And for all u ppl saying it wouldn’t have mattered if it was an african american or any other race that kayne did that to, that’s not true at all! It wouldn’t matter who kayne did that to it was rude and uncalled for. Everybody is entitled to their opinion but to take away from someones moment is not right at all and he’s learing wat the consequinces r now. Whether he’s truely sorry or not, it doesn’t take away from the fact that he’s done rude things b4, its just the way he is which is an asshole, I honestly don’t think he will change cuz he likes himself to much to.

Comparing Grant’s personal indiscretion to West’s public humiliation of someone is a joke.
What VM’s belong only to African and Hispanic Americans? Beyonce got Vid of the YEAR… and ‘we’ can’t give Best Fem vid to someone else? The guy as a self-control issue and a thin skin thinking he has to stand up for a sista when she’s still up for vid of the year.
Excuuuuse the rest of us… for thinking tantrum’s should stay OFF stage and that West doesn’t own the VMA’s.

Carlos, are you saying the VMA’s are only for blacks and latinos? I don’t get it. Taylor Swift doesn’t belong on the vma’s? Her music is mostly country but some of it crosses over and is played on pop radio stations. Also, a couple of her videos, including the one for which she received the award, are played on MTV. So why did she not belong there? BTW, there are only a couple of blacks or latinos singing country music. That’s why you’re not going to see them on country music awards shows.

I for one can guarantee that I will not ever buy any of Kayne West yapping he calls rap again. Taylor Swift has more talent than Kayne has or would ever have. She will have more moments in the spotlight as Kayne fizzles out of his.

G | 9/15/2009, 2:04 am EST

Wow CJ are you ready to bring segregation back and sit on the back of a bus again? Only white people listen to Taylor’s music? So I guess only blacks listen to black artists and only latins listen to J Lo or Pitbull. Wow, how your mind is narrow!

there’s a universe of classy acts out there like Kan’s idol Jay-Z,Ludicris and Dr Dre that outshine him on the the brightest of days. Wanting to be the next Elvis comes with a price fella…oops!looks like you spent all your talent up.its a crappy ride down..better hit up Brit for the “Climbing out of the Crapper Manual”

How about you guys stop one second and think about that b4 returning to your boring ass lives in the trailor parks or suburbs or projects !!!!!Think about that bum juices !!!!

Brain | 9/15/2009, 2:13 am EST

Kanye rules,we love that guy. For ever and ever. He really says the things we want to say but many of us don’t have a voice on in America to say it. Every time Kanye speaks out like this, he says something that I and many other people have always wished we could have said. Kanye is first class all the way in our books, and until things are just and right, we the people need Kanye Wests in the world. God I love that guy, and that’s not in a gay way at all. LOL

Executioner | 9/15/2009, 2:17 am EST

Kanye West is a CLOWN of the greatest magnitude. You cannot just say “SORRY” and be forgiven. Your antics are sad and pathetic. Only members of OJs jury will agree that you are OK. Like Cocoa the Coconut above. You MUST be BOO’d and laughed at during every public appearance. You are DONE. Your career is OVER. You’re a JOKE. Bye and good riddance.

Lol | 9/15/2009, 2:23 am EST

What Kanye did WASN’T THAT BAD! People are making a HUGE deal outta this. He didn’t hit a woman, he didn’t sexually harass one, he didn’t kill anyone, he didn’t steal anything. And you got people like Pink saying he’s the biggest piece of crap on Earth? Seriously, maybe in her little glitzy world he is. Kanye was rude and being a Jerk…but um…there are A LOT of people like that in America and in the world…Oh well.

He apologized for being rude and he’s playing all of you. He’s going to disappear for awhile like everyone wants him to and make his big ‘comeback’ and double his money

Kanye just messed with the wrong little white sweet girl. So what he did was the worst thing in the entire world because of WHO he did it too. I bet you had he done that to another rapper or male artist this would have been nothing.

WHAT HE DID WAS NOTHING! He was being a *** sure, but how many times in your life were you rude to someone? All of you are perfect little people who are class acts %100 of the time? NO, none of you are.

I’m willing to forgive Kanye because he didn’t do something horrible. He didn’t commit a crime, or sin if you’re a religious person. He was just being rude, and when you are rude you apologize for that act and move on. Seriously, people want him to retire and disappear off the earth for this. Seriously?

Taylor fan | 9/15/2009, 2:24 am EST

All I heard was I, I, I, I, well you still can’t get it right. It wasn’t about you. Gitit? Yo! If you need help on coaching your public relations, don’t call me. You will loose millions due to your mouth, Ironic. I laugh and so does the world. BTW, now you can’t afford me and Beyounce wouldn’t touch you. BTW Ben Stiller.. it was a movie, this is real life.

Lata! as in never.

Lol | 9/15/2009, 2:31 am EST

Also, how can you Argue Beyonce shouldn’t have won that award? She won Best Video of the year…but no Best female video of the year?

Isn’t that backwards?

For example, if a movie wins Best movie of the year…but doesn’t win in it’s own category…how is it best movie of the year?

Kinda fishy.

sherry... | 9/15/2009, 2:32 am EST

he’s full of himself and can’t get enough of himself…what a publicity whore…he’s crying for attention…he thinks he has to jump on stage everytime he has an opinion – well now the world is on stage to tell him is a LOW CLASS LOSER…he said he’s real — yeah, real stupid. GO TAYLOR!!!

Luis Loza | 9/15/2009, 2:40 am EST

i thinck Kanye West is trash. groun as man taking something that great from a teenage girl. i dont care for his apology. his atemt to get in Beonces jeans came back to slap him in the face hahaha. what a dush!

Kayne West made a bonehead (yet perfectly legal) move, then apologized, and you people are still slagging him off.

Chris Brown violently battered a woman, and half of you stick with him.

Very strange!

kristin | 9/15/2009, 2:45 am EST

OK. So I don’t think this is racism. Kanye preferred Beyonce over Taylor. It (hopefully) had nothing to do with the color of their skin and everything to do with taste in music. Kanye’s just not a country fan. Fine. But I do think that if a white man had interrupted a black girl’s speech to proclaim a white girl should have won, then you know Jesse Jackson would be throwing a fit. I’m sorry. There is such a double standard when it comes to racism. And it’s not just black/white either. There’s plenty of racism against Asians, Hispanics, etc.

Anyways, I don’t believe Kanye’s apology for one second. He’s a repeat offender, as others have said before me. He’s pulled numerous stunts like this. It’s The Boy Who Cried Wolf. There’s only so many times you can beleive him. I’m done. I am so done with him. His music is ok; not the super-wonderful stuff he says it is, but it’s alright.

Beyonce and Taylor acted with dignity and class. Kanye needs to stop pulling the “dead mother” card. Cry me a river, dude. That was at least a year ago. And as for the whole “oh dear me I’m a celebrity, pity me, love me” bit, I want to punch that fucker in the face. Kanye, you are a child. You run around claiming you are the biggest thing on the planet and that God put you here to blah blah blah. God put you here and he can take you away. Which, in my opinion, he should have done a long time ago. But maybe Kanye is still here only as a lesson for us. DON’T BE KANYE. LOL. Don’t do what he does and you won’t be a douche. Lesson learned.

Rosana | 9/15/2009, 2:48 am EST

kanye is trash. He has no class whatsoever, unfortunately he founf a microfone and think he has a voice.
When he intrrupted Taylor, he robbed her of a moment that she worked for and tht was rewarded by her fans. He robbed Beyounce of HER moment, he robbed us, the fans, of being able to enjoy the artists we love. It was not his place to say anything. He called the attention to himself.
What classy ladies Taylor and Beyonce are!
And what garbage he is.

Rod | 9/15/2009, 2:50 am EST

Carlos you are an idiot. You will be the only one buying anything with kanye’s name on it

YMRO | 9/15/2009, 2:51 am EST

Hey, Carlos, on your post earlier that Taylor did not deserve to be there, I think you are wrong. She is a talented singer and has evey right to be there and if she didn’t she would not have won.Plus that was the whole honor of her winning that her genre is not usually presented but she overcame that ad WON!!!

marie | 9/15/2009, 2:53 am EST

Carlos,

Darius Rucker was nominated for a CMA just one week ago. With your (ill)logic he should not win over a white artist. Can you IMAGINE if he won and a white artist actually GRABBED the mic from him during his acceptance?

Here’s some history for you…
March 2006:
Country Music Hall of Fame opens it’s exhibit; I Can’t Stop Loving You: Ray Charles and Country Music

Charlie Pride – some of his awards won
1997: TNN/Music City News: Living Legend

1977: American Music Awards: Favorite Male Artist

1974: American Music Awards: Favorite Album

1974: American Music Awards: Favorite Male Artist

1973: Music City News Country: Male Artist of the Year

1972: CMA: Male Vocalist of the Year

1972: Grammy: Best Male Country Vocal Performance

1972: Music City News Country: Male Artist of the Year

I could go on, but I’ve got to go watch the BET awards.
1971: CMA: Entertainer of the Year

1971: CMA: Male Vocalist of the Year

1971: Music City News Country: Male Artist of the Year

1970: Music City News Country: Male Artist of the Year

1969: Music City News Country: Male Artist of the Year

In 1993, Pride was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry, 26 years after he first played as a guest. He was awarded the prestigious Academy of Country Music’s Pioneer Award in 1994 and elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2000.

Anonymous, the answer is simple.

Rihanna is a black artist, some people made joke videos on Youtube about her being beat nearly after it was done. I got the feeling that most people thought “Oh well, that sucks for her…but oh well.”

When Kanye interrupts sweet little Taylor Swifts acceptance, this is clearly WORSE than what happened to Rihanna. Kanye is clearly the biggest jerk of all time, his career should be ended.

It wasn’t that bad.

danny | 9/15/2009, 3:08 am EST

I doubt Taylor Swift endorses the virtual fatwa on Kanye declared over and over on this board. It’s not that serious, people.

Hmm…sounds like a whole lot white bastards made because someone insulted their beloved celeb. and did’nt take sorry as an answer. Black? Asian? Others? I don’t think they listen to Taylor Swift as much as you guys do( not saying that she is a bad artist). I just think you need to listen to his music…say its crap if you dont like…or say its good if you like it…and then move on. + I dont think Kanye or Swift read these kinds of topics much when there busy making great music.

IM WHITE AND I LAUGHED WHEN KANYE GRABBED TAYLOR’S MIC…SO STOP JUDGING MORON I DONT LISTEN TO TAYLOR SWIFT U IGNORANT BASTARD

DannyD | 9/15/2009, 5:08 am EST

I honestly don’t disagree with KW: Beyonce made a TRULY GREAT video. Had he voiced his opinion the NEXT day in an interview, his statement wouldn’t have been out of line AT ALL.

But the fact Kanye has an EGO so outlandishly huge that he had the nerve to barge on stage and publically crap right in the middle of Taylor Swift’s deservedly big moment makes me sort of wish PINK would have won; as SHE would have more-than-likely kicked Kanye’s flyweight butt soundly right then and there…

Kanye will try all the damage control his business managers can arrange at this point, but unless he finds a cure for aids,poverty and the common cold, many will still remember him as a world class d-bag (who’s biggest “hit” was a no-talent corruption of a MUCH better original by DAFT PUNK).

Flush this turd already.

Marc | 9/15/2009, 6:10 am EST

Apology NOT ACCEPTED

So this cry baby comes on Leno, acts like a victim of circumstance (”it’s because I’m famous and have money”), is sorry about that (sort of) and honestly thinks that’s enough?

So, then he says he ‘needs to take some time off’ and immediately follows that up by performing on the show?

Loser clown!

Oh, and Jay Z and Rihanna, you guys also lost some serious credit for not dropping this dimwit from your act.

Boycott Kanye | 9/15/2009, 7:37 am EST

Nothing this jerk-off can do will erase the moment he stole from Taylor Swift, who never did one hurtful thing to dumb-ass Mr. Auto-Tune in her life.

And then he blames it on the fact that his mother died. Everybody’s mother dies, dude — doesn’t make you special. And it doesn’t justify your actions.

Boycott Kanye and any organiation that has anything to do with him. This isn’t just because of the Taylor Swift situation — he has a history of behavior of this nature. Unnecessary.

algomajoker | 9/15/2009, 8:12 am EST

If this was the first time Kanye had pulled a douche-bag move, that would be different. But it’s continuous and he seems to think that if he just says ’sorry’ then it will all be ok. The only thing he’s sorry about is that other people (like the rest of the world) are sick of his self absorbed behavior and are finally calling him out. Someone here said ‘ass hat’. I’m not sure what that means but it seems oddly appropriate.

Pslightly Psycho | 9/15/2009, 8:18 am EST

I can’t believe I am actually saying this but I think what Kanye did on “Leno” last night was brave and humble. Yesterday I went on this website and others to slam West for his behaviour at the VMAs. While I maintain that what he did was cruel and inconsiderate to Ms. Swift, he appears to be ashamed of himself and atleast open to the possibility of change. I think it WOULD be wise of him to bow out of the limelight and examine his psyche. I wish the man well…

Nezziie | 9/15/2009, 8:24 am EST

Well, I don’t believe his apologies. If he is sincere, he should go first apologize to Taylor and not make a drama first on T.V!! He’s so obvious! Liar! Disrespectful!!

Nezziie | 9/15/2009, 8:26 am EST

Just go back to school and learn a little bit about respect! JERK!!

Ladii | 9/15/2009, 8:41 am EST

It was fucked up what he did but at least he apologized. I’m not a fan don’t get me wrong. Kanye has to learn self control and sometimes keep his opinions to himself before he mouths off to the wrong person.

m | 9/15/2009, 8:45 am EST

i wish everyone would shut their mouths and mind their own business your not celebrities, and you guys with these comments are also being rude by wishing death and harm on another person, everyone needs to look at their selves before condemning someone else

Elmo | 9/15/2009, 8:53 am EST

Ok this is how i se things. K.W. has a history of this sort of shit, and yes he is a F@%k-tard.

He said he was sorry and if you belive him or not is not the point. he said it and thats that.

As far as you little pricks slamming his dead mother, Thats way worse than anything he ever said. You just hide behind your PC screens and and talk out of your asses.

You demand for respect and dont ever show it, respect gets respect. You dont hide behind a PC and demand it stupid.

all i can say is….. stick to the words you know the meenning of ya JACK-OFF.

Kanye cries wolf | 9/15/2009, 9:03 am EST

How many times does this jerkoff get to spaz out and then expect to be let off the hook just because he apologizes? Sorry — sometimes apologies don’t count. You have to ACT a certain way during the course of your life in order to earn respect and Kanye has earned zilch. Just because he apologizes and gets a little weepy on Jay Leno does not mean he is off the hook. Until proven otherwise, Kanye West is a JERK. Moreover, he really should stop qualifying his apologies while reiterating how great he thinks Beyonce’s video is. That’s irrelevant to his apology; he’s trying to justify unjustifiable behavior. If he can’t hold himself together, he needs to stop drinking before/during award shows and/or take some serious head medication.

Greg | 9/15/2009, 9:11 am EST

The little prick didn’t seem too distraught performing after his little teared-up moment about his mother. During the interview he went into victim-mode; “I’ve been working too much, time for a break”. Hey, how about forever?

MissQ58 | 9/15/2009, 9:34 am EST

This is not the first time KW has spouted off…I remember watching the hurricane katrina relief effort show where he ranted on about racism and the government blah blah blah.
It was supposed to be a show to raise money/help for the victims of the floods..but instead he turned into his televised platform to rant…I felt sorry for Mike Meyers who was on stage with him for that rant…and totally embarassed sorry for taylor swift. thank god beyonce has some class and saved the night.

nessyyy | 9/15/2009, 9:41 am EST

kanye was outta line doing that because that was her first vma and he took away her magical moment but jay has no right slamming about his mother because thats just as bad

CLM | 9/15/2009, 9:52 am EST

Rude, arrogant scum sucking punk!!! He does not deserve the fame he has..he abuses it!!! I hope he goes down. Not only did he steal the moment from the very talented Taylor Swift..he stole the limelight from the ONE AND ONLY..KING OF POP..MICHAEL JACKSON!! SHAME SHAME SHAME!

country girl | 9/15/2009, 9:55 am EST

i disagree,i really liked jay’s comment bowt his mom

it was like a wakeup call

but i dont think he regret it that much

hes a egoist PERIOD

“rude period”

i disagree,rude wasn’t enough to describe his ruining of a supposedly happy moment

he’s just lucky jay and the audience didn’t boo him out of there

Marie | 9/15/2009, 10:18 am EST

Kan** cry me a river.
The audience was TOTALLY coached to clap. They have crowd-leaders that run around and warm up the crowd before the cameras role and they tell them what to do. Then lights camera action…they play along.

Booo to Kanye AND to Chris Brown! I, for one, will NOT be purchasing (or listening to) any more of either! Before all their indiscretions, I actually liked their material. That doesn’t matter any more – standing up for the right thing is way more important than their music.

Amy | 9/15/2009, 10:31 am EST

Also, I applaud Jay for calling Kanye out so strongly by asking him what his Mama would have thought about what he did. MORE people should call people out on their bad behavior! Not hatefully, not spitefully, but just in a way that really makes them think! Good job, Jay!

cenisa | 9/15/2009, 10:37 am EST

Vic De Zen | 9/15/2009, 10:46 am EST

Kanye’s still an idiot. I’m not taking anything away from his talent though and will likely still buy his stuff. Will he live up to his word and actually apologize to Taylor Swift? I hope so. Will he also take time off. He should have done that a long time ago when his mother passed.

h_e_n_r_y | 9/15/2009, 10:56 am EST

Why the f**k do people keep paying attention to this asshole.

JAY Z was on the leno show promoting his album, yet that cocksucker kanye was invited on the couch to bullshit as usual. This type of asshole should not even be given the chance to apologize because all they do is ACT sorry and think they’re soooo important that we give a shit about what they think/feel.

Ramirez | 9/15/2009, 12:44 pm EST

It’s all a PR move to rehabilitate his image in the public light; people need to understand that. Other celebrities like R.Kelly, Hugh Grant, Robert Downey Jr., Chris Brown, etc. all had to perform this task in order to win back the trust and praise from the fans & media. Not saying it’s right or wrong but it’s how its played.

I will still listen to Kanye’s work but I don’t care about what he does on TV with his antics. Yes, he was right that Beyonce should have won but do not steal someone else’s thunder from receiving an award. I don’t care for Taylor Swift’s music but she won and she deserve it.

People will flock into her corner now cuz of how it was portrayed on screen for millions of people to view and now all he can do is rehab his image. Plain and simple.

Dudu | 9/15/2009, 12:54 pm EST

Hes just using hes mom as an excuse, 2 even thik I liked his music. Hes such a tonssel, shut up mr east! ur publicity stunts are getting rather tired try sumthng else, scumbag.

Psych Student | 9/15/2009, 1:38 pm EST

What if Beyonce won and…I don’t know..Billy Joe got on stage and stole the mic and said Taylor Swift had the best video? Would it seem racist? Also, I hated Russel Brand as the host. We get it, you’re EXTREME. New host next year please.

worship me | 9/15/2009, 1:43 pm EST

I have millions of dollars so I can act anyway I want. My voice is the only voice that matters. I have to pull stunts like this from time to time cause it keeps me in the spotlight, especially when I’m scheduled for a talk show soon. This will one day all blow over and be forgotten and people will continue to buy my records. I’m laughing all the way to the bank. (wait till you see my next stunt)……….. What a dbag.!!!

lilly | 9/15/2009, 1:55 pm EST

I’m the same age as Michael Jackson
and grew up on his music so I felt a need to show my respect and admiration for the man who was the father of the most creative videos of all time! I felt sad he was gone while watching Janet perform brilliantly I might add. Then what happened? Now I’ve watched many award shows in my lifetime but have never seen such hate and cruelty before! Kanye West needs to be banned from the vma’s for ten years as a lesson of shame to others who might try similar outbursts of public hummilation I felt horrified for that young artist. Consequences for bad behavior is the order of the day.

Kanye West is RUDE. They should have booed him when he went on the Show last night. First off he had no clue what to even say. Apologize yea right! That was just him looking for pity. And look at his history. He has done this before a million times. In 2006 he got mad b/c he didnt win an award and jumped on stage just to make a scene. He has also been Late to shows leaving fans waiting hours and hours for him. He sucks. And no one should buy a CD of his or a concert ticket. And if you buy Jay Z new album you are putting money in KW bank so don’t do it.

me | 9/15/2009, 2:36 pm EST

it’s a shame. it’s a shame that people will accept his appology and forget just how bad his actions were. people will continue to not give a fuck and buy his music. what makes you think that his mothers death can justify what he did to an innocent girl. Everyone loses thier mother at some point or another. Do you see people acting arrogant because of that? open your eyes. realize that kanye is just trying to save his career.

C-dubb | 9/15/2009, 2:40 pm EST

Okay, Kanye was dead wrong and he should be downright ashamed of what he did. It was very hurtful. But let’s keep things in perspective here: Taylor Swift is beautiful, has a fantastic voice, seems to be a nice person, has lots of money, probably a beautiful home etc…I’m thinking she will probably survive this ordeal. So while we’re passing out pity to Taylor let’t not forget to save some for the thousands of kids that will go to sleep tonight with no food in their stomach or a roof over their head. Unlike Taylor, they MAY NOT survive their ordeal.

Wait a minute! I love how you people become outraged at people who apologize. You accuse them of not being sincere! Who the HELL are you to judge Kanye West, Chris Brown’s or anyone else’s sincerity? You TOOLS need to spend more time reading and growing mentally. Turn off the idiot box and stop reading trash like this magazine! People, even celebrities sometimes fall short of who they should be and guess what people so do you and me! STOP IT!

milt moravek | 9/15/2009, 2:59 pm EST

Kanye West’s actions were racially motivated and nothing but. If the rolls were reversed there would be riots in the streets.

WaitAMin | 9/15/2009, 3:04 pm EST

Taylor's power is horrible. | 9/15/2009, 3:07 pm EST

Kanye might made a mistake. But Taylor has more mistakes in the past. MySpace blog writing stole amateur Japanese living in Kawasaki, just Taylor songs “love story” as sung. It is not in any allegations. Truth. And the truth to light, the record companies, under pressure, with an ugly woman amateur action. And who knows the facts, and that the criticism of Taylor, the social criticism. Criticism is also unable to continue speaking award. Taylor’s staff, the movie starring Beyonce Knowles, “Cadillac Records”, and in Japan is not shown on the big screen, the Sony harassment. Taylor’s power is horrible.

Zimzum | 9/15/2009, 3:29 pm EST

what is the deal with you white people accusing kanye of racism? when did he ever make any sort of mention of race at the vmas? if you actually think her video was better than beyonce’s you are nuts. the choreography and cinematography was fantastic and the video was everywhere when it came out. THIS DOES NOT MEAN HE SHOULD HAVE INTERRUPTED HER, but it doesn’t mean he is racist? Personally, I think its racist to assume that just because kanye is a black he was automatically motivated by race. if pete wentz has done that, wat would the motivation have been then? The “outrage” over this incident IS all about race, but not on Kanye’s part….this is just like the MIley Cyrus/Jamie Foxx incident. Eminem talks about, and its ok. Jamie makes a joke (since he’s a comedian), and has to make a public apology. Hmmm, I wonder why?????

??????? | 9/15/2009, 3:34 pm EST

what is the deal with people accusing kanye of racism? when did he ever make any sort of mention of race at the vmas? if you actually think Swift’s video was better than beyonce’s you are nuts. the choreography and cinematography was fantastic and the video was everywhere when it came out. THIS DOES NOT MEAN HE SHOULD HAVE INTERRUPTED HER, but it doesn’t mean he is racist? Personally, I think its racist to assume that just because kanye is a black man he was automatically motivated by race. if pete wentz has done that, wat would the motivation have been then? The “outrage” over this incident IS all about race, but not on Kanye’s part….this is just like the Miley Cyrus/Jamie Foxx incident. Eminem talks about masterbating and raping/murdering Miley (as a joke), and its ok. Jamie makes a joke (since he’s a comedian)about her, and has to make a public apology. Hmmm, I wonder why?????

The Democrats are turning the Wilson “You lie” thing into a racial incident and it is no different than West and Swift.

How could he be so heartless? | 9/15/2009, 3:58 pm EST

No one deserves to have that moment taken from them, especially when they’ve worked hard to receive the award. Even Taylor herself looked surprised she was getting it but obviously she must have done something right so leave it be! She isn’t my fav and neither is Kanye but i respect them both as artists and would be equally outraged had it of been someone else raining on their parade. (Just makes it easier cause Tay Swift is nothing but a sweet heart!)

RUDE IS RIGHT K WEST, not sooo swift if you ask me! “King shit” needs to get off his high horse and start taking responsibility for his bad judgment instead of throwing hissy fits and expecting a simple sorry to get him by! He lost plenty of brownie points in my books…NOT COOL dude.

oh and…just for a bit of comical relief…

Kanye West at Patrick
Swayze’s funeral:

“Ima let you get back to your funeral in a minute, but michael jackson had the best death this whole year!”

How could he be so heartless? | 9/15/2009, 4:03 pm EST

oh and, just because Kanye has coloured skin does NOT mean this was racially motivated. People need to stop resorting to that as the solution to every problem.

I agree with the Pete Wentz comment…what would the motivation have been there? Good music, good videography? Shit son, i’d never thought i’d see the day.

P.s. Kudos to the sweetheart Beyonce for saving Kanye’s ass!

Amanda | 9/15/2009, 4:46 pm EST

im tired of hearing about this. who cares??? yeah it was rude and interesting for maybe a few hrs. but everyone is acting like kanye beat the girl up or something. its just the VMAs. ive seen and heard way worse things happening to people. get over it

Milt | 9/15/2009, 4:49 pm EST

Maybe you should tell the Black Caucus not to label Wilson’s outburst as racial than. He made no racial comment. He just called the president a liar.

What now?? | 9/15/2009, 5:08 pm EST

Hmmm if I was Kanye and this doesn’t blow over in say…. the next couple of weeks, what should I do? I know, I’ve got to get people to feel sorry for me. And what better than to stage a car accident, suicide, or overdose. Then I’ll get sympathy. Even Talyor Swift will have to say something nice about me.
All I’m saying people is don’t get sucked in. At his age he should know right from wrong. And don’t give me this crap that everyone makes mistakes. I think the word you’re looking for is accidents. Accidents happen. But MISTAKES is what Kanye constantly does. Don’t give this guy a pass. Call up you’re favorite music station and tell them not to play his songs.

Karen | 9/15/2009, 5:49 pm EST

I am SO Sick of this man!!!! Who does he think he is?? I suppose he thinks that any publicity is better than none. SHUT YOUR BIG MOUTH AND GO AWAY YOU FOOL…….no one will miss you!!!!

wonderingloud | 9/15/2009, 6:13 pm EST

This guy has all of the impulse control of a 2 year old. And this isn’t the first time he’s crashed someone else’s party on stage (or backstage, I guess).

Don’t like to speak ill of the dead, but his late mother must have spoiled him rotten and catered to his every whim if he is able, as an adult, to walk up and grab the mic from another adult in the middle of a worldwide tv broadcast.

Just another adult brat who always has to be the center of attention, no matter what the consequences.

Given his uncomfortably long pause after Leno’s question yesterday, re: his behaviour at the VMAs, I don’t think he’s sorry at all, and we can expect more of the same.

elr | 9/15/2009, 6:17 pm EST

this was horrible! he ruined her chance. it was great that beyonce let her have her a moment, but hes an ass! he just wants publicity.

to milt | 9/15/2009, 7:04 pm EST

Ummm I think the kanye/swift situation is a little different than the obama/wilson situation, seeing as how Obama is sort of THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES speaking BEFORE CONGRESS! Taylor Swift is a singer, at a dumb, freewheeling, anything goes-type of awards show where the artists are encouraged to get crazy during the show. Very different.

Pap | 9/15/2009, 9:54 pm EST

I would ban him from all award shows in the future. I mean, i can picture him tearing the oscar out scorsese’s hands and saying clint eastwood deserves it (random names, really): “yo marty, i’m gonna let you finish, but my man clint here made the best movie of ALL TIME, for real!” hehehehe

GurkhaBlackDragon | 9/16/2009, 1:16 am EST

Kanye said what he said get over it Haters! He’s the fuckin man people better recognize. Beside’s he’s just preparing Swift for life in the lime light. There’s shit you gotta deal with. She’s getting hella paid for her talent and so is Kanye. So you take the good with the bad. It’s no sweat off her back and she’s getting hella publicity. Kanye is a genius.

Don't buy Kanye! | 9/16/2009, 1:28 am EST

This guy doesn’t deserve fame. Do not support him by buying his albums or all the other shit he does. The more attention you give Kanye the more he thinks of himself. All I ever hear is how much of an asshole he is. What is really sad is this is not an act…he continues to prove this. Kayne, learn to respect people!

why? | 9/16/2009, 1:31 am EST

First of all that Apology was mainly for Taylor not you pendejos commenting on this and being fucked up to ‘Ye

Kanye West reaches out to a wider audience. Taylor Swift is just for the country folks, the teens, and their moms. FUCK MTV FOR LETTING STUPID TEENAGE GIRLS WITH BAD TASTE IN MUSIC VOTE. The dude wiil survive because he is an international star. Taylor is big in this lame ass country and Australia. But apparently the world is going to end because Kanye offended the posers or punk rockstars like Pink (PUNK IS DEAD AND SHE NEEDS TO STOP HAVING HER MUSIC BASED ON SOMETHING SHE’S NOT), Katy Perry (Dumb bitch is another reason more girls try kissing other girls bcuz its lyke so cool and funn and then they become more confused and dont know what to do with their lives), and all american folks. Oh and the gays (FUCK KATY PERRY AND PEREZ HILTON by the way because they aren’t helping the gay community).

Kanye is a renegade. Most likely this is the last time he goes to an award show and does something dumb but still its KANYE. People just hating because a black man verbally hurt a young white girl (19 years old not 17 dumbasses) and shes like that americas sweetheart bullshit. A new fucking revolution is coming to show you assholes who loved this decade that your a bunch of dullards and hypocrites filled with ignorance who love to gossip and who believe they are connoisseurs of art and pop culture. You don’t know shit and represent a decade filled with bullshit and just need to shut the fuck up and stay in your lame ass 9 to 5 jobs and watch your bullshit reality shows.

NO MORE KANYE! | 9/16/2009, 1:35 am EST

Kanye is an embarrassment to all artists.

why? | 9/16/2009, 1:41 am EST

Oh and yeah Kelly Clarkson is also stupid by the way. Now she is trying to get attention to her dull and tedious career by talking crap about Kanye. Dude didn’t hit anyone and I agree with his opinions not his decisions to go on stage though. She needs to go away and just realize she sucks. American Idol in general sucks. The same people or viewers who were disrespecting Kanye when he appeared on Idol are talking crap now and showing their true side by saying their racist comments.

Once all these posers go away then I’m gonna play that Since You Been Gone song, Lol.

Kanye Is The Truth | 9/16/2009, 1:52 am EST

Kanye West has the gut’s to do and say what other’s wont. He remind’s me of Scarface. This is what he should of said at the Jay Leno show. What you lookin’ at? You all a bunch of fuckin’ assholes. You know why? You don’t have the guts to be what you wanna be? You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your fuckin’ fingers and say, “That’s the bad guy.” So… what that make you? Good? You’re not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie. Me, I don’t have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie. So say good night to the bad guy! Come on. The last time you gonna see a bad guy like this again, let me tell you. And then apologize to Swift.

nycfrog27 | 9/16/2009, 2:19 am EST

Oh, yeah….AND FUCK ALL OF YOU if you’re too stupid to see it.

you are all racist | 9/16/2009, 3:14 am EST

Here is some shit everyone should know:
Chris Brown beat the crap out of Rihanna but people still like him. Kanye West interrupted Swift and everyone hates him. That does not make any sense at all. So a black man can beat a black woman and that’s cool but if a black man hurt’s a white girls feeling’s he’s the bad guy? You bunch of racist idiot’s quit hating Kanye. He’s just giving everyone what they really want, an excuse to hate him. Hate him all you want he’s still The Man! And Taylor is young she’s still gonna win awards and everyone will still love her. Not like that will be her only award. Get over it people. Hate the real asshole= Chris Brown.
P.S. Fifty cent is more of a hater than Kanye. And that’s real.

why? tell it like it is | 9/16/2009, 3:31 am EST

Those comment’s by “why?” are so true. Finally someone on here with a brain. Taylor Swift is cool my 3 year old likes her. But Kanye West is just giving the world what they want. Something to cry about and someone to hate on. Oh yeah my 3 year old LOVES Kanye West and so do i. Taylor Swift is cool and it’s easy to love her cause she’s not a bitch like all the people hating on Kanye. She forgave him. He was right to apologize to her. But all you idiot’s should apologize to Kanye for talking down on him.

Rude doesn’t begin to cover what Kanye did; and his “apology” falls way short. But why is this becoming a racial issue? Let’s keep that out of it. It’s not about what a black person did to a white person. It’s about incivility which is happenig more and more frequently.

Shenedabreak | 9/16/2009, 11:03 am EST

Truthful, hearfelt or sincere who cares? Only Kanye know what’s in his heart and only he can answer for the things he say and do. Whole heartedly I think he is in so much pain behind loosing his mother. He really need to take some time to get himself situated. As fas as Taylor is concerned…. Keep Doing Your Thing Ma… This will only make you stronger!!!

Pib | 9/16/2009, 11:14 am EST

“It’s all about me” appears to be Kayne West’s motto. Or, maybe his motto is “rude and crude, whether sober or high!” Either way, he needs to realize the world does not rotate around him…and never will. His orbit is decaying rapidly!

Kanye is one the most telented people in hip-hop, his music is great, he is a douche but half of all the celebrities out their are, even if they are “nice” they still commit crimes, we forgave mj, but you all are acting like he did what michael did, mj or mike vick, so shut up and get over it, people make mistakes, everyone who wrote a blog on this has been a douchbag at some point in their life

Carrie in Texas | 9/16/2009, 5:41 pm EST

We should all vote for Taylor Swift and Beyonce to host and write the next SNL skit.

If Leno had been smarter (at least he called the idiot West on the carpet for his actions), he would have had Beyonce and Swift on his show last night. The would have shown CLASS.

Mary Ann | 9/16/2009, 6:00 pm EST

I had to comment about Kanye’s rude, disrespectful behavior during the recent award show. First of all, how could he take the moment away from Taylor Swift. It was her first award. She’ll never get that chance again to have her moment. Now her memories of this will be tainted for the rest of her life. Beyonce was kind, and gave her back her moment, but really, it’s not the same.
I commend Jay Leno for asking Kanye how his mother would react to his rude and thoughtless behavior. Honestly, did his mama raise him right? I think not…Was the accident he had earlier in life the cause of his brain damage? Cause, seriously, he must be brain damaged to actually do his continued stupid stunts to gain publicity. If he was a good entertainer…he wouldn’t have to pull stunts to gain the publics attention. He has no class. All the money in the world can’t get him what he’ll never acheive, and all the idiots who follow his career from now on, I feel sorry for you. I’d list him in the Chris Brown class. Unforgivable Jerks who don’t need us feeding their pockets with our hard earned money. They should go out and get real jobs like real people to find out what life is really like and appreciate what hard work earns them.
Kanye, you’ll probably never read this, but if you died today, you would never get the recognition Michael Jackson did. You’re not worthy. You ruined that heart felt moment for the audience too. A true entertainer does for the people, and doesn’t do it just to get attention like you. He contributes, and helps other people, you’re only out to help your self. You’re a selfish person who shames your mother’s memory.

Izzno | 9/16/2009, 6:03 pm EST

joe is an idiot, rap has a mix of dark and positive music, just like every genre. kanye is positive, prolly one of the most positive, short of lupe fiasco, if you had an open mind you would have known that, i really hate people who speak out of ignorance, you said kanye produced dark and negative music, you are a idiot!

not. a hater. | 9/16/2009, 6:09 pm EST

i know kanye west jackass sometimes and be pretty rude, and say stuff he shouldn’t but like everybody else he has a heart, but we don’t know him so we can’t judge him on his mistakes, and because hes a celeberity, get pissed and say have some class. kanyes a great artist so… just let it go. he’ll just be stupid but most of us will still listen to his remarks. and music.

DannyD | 9/17/2009, 4:51 am EST

In retrospect, SECURITY should have PHYSICALLY barred Kanye from the stage… (and I hope they DO in the future)

Afterall, He had NO MORE BUSINESS THERE than any garden-variety drunk non-celebrity.

KW truly had NO right to ANY “message time”– as it wasn’t HIS moment.

I’m not disagreeing with his opinion. Just his timing.

If Kanye attempts any similar douchebag stunt in the future, I sincerely hope to post a ROFLMAO comment to the “Kanye crapped himself while tasered by security” video.

Hopefully, it won’t be “Mr Overinflated Ego” getting thumped by Presidential bodyguards as he attempts to assault the stage over Obamas “jackass” comment.

On second thought- THAT would probably be the single greatest application of tax dollars since the “New Deal”…

PS- Kanye- you are VERY lucky to have picked a victim YOUR midget ass COULD bully.

PINK would have truly humiliated you.

People who support what you did need to examine how they treat others as well.

Very shameful behavior, JACKASS.

And ... | 9/17/2009, 6:52 am EST

Most of these comments are way out of proportion. Yeah okay, he stole her moment, but some of you comment as if he stole YOUR moment. You are saying worse things, a hell of a lot worse, than what Kanye said to Taylor Swift. It’s hypocritical.
Kanye’s eating that overdue humble pie, which has grown to the size of a football field. I would say that the result is pretty successful – everyone loves Taylor Swift, Beyonce has reached Saint status and Kanye eats his overdue humble pie.

I am a middle aged guy who’s kids listen to Kanye. In my view, he is a talented artist, no question. He is a spoiled celebrity who believes the ten of thousands of people who are blowing smoke up his ass that he is untouchable. I suspect he appology was because he is deeply concerned he may sell few albums and nothing to do with really being sorry. He’s just another celebrity punk who thinks that he is better than everyone else and wanst to blame it on his lifestyle. He has NO CLASS.

KW is a Jack Ass. Even the Pres of the US thinks so.

Dear HEAVENS: Thank you for saying so eloquently what I wanted to hear. Thank you for not cursing, it made your comment stand out, even tho you wrote in ALL CAPS1 It was bad, it was sad, I was outta town and didn’t even see it. Heard about it plenty tho on the radio. Kanye does need to pull his dress down. Kanye, you need some help man, don’t worry; Taylor will probably write a song someday about this experience, and Kanye can ride out his future depending upon her lyrics………..

Oh thanks. More garbage from Kanye.

C'mon People | 9/18/2009, 4:34 pm EST

Nature of the Business. Kanye is an intelligent Pop Music entrepreneur. He sits around with Jay Z and thinks of ways to make $$.

Here it is: Act a fool at the VMA’s, “apologize” on the Leno premier, Tour with Lady GaGa.

Another day, another dollar. Good job Kanye… you’re a whore.

Joe Jonas is probably laughing his butt off after the way she dogged him to the media!

What an egocentric idiot. Someone wrote that he’s all class, and I hope they were joking.. However, this is the kind of thing you have to do when no one talks about your music. Talentless, self-absorbed.. just like Paris Hilton.

jesuschrystler | 10/14/2009, 7:16 pm EST

wait, did I just boost his “incomez”?… Fooled again..

Everyone is hating on Kanye West, are you telling me that no one has ever spoken their mind? That freedom of speech is no longer a freedom?? Everyone that has critisized MR. West ought to be perfect, or so it seems. Plus, Taylor Swift is an excellent artist. She has true talent, I applaud her for that. As does Beyonce and Kanye.

You so called “haters” are putting Kanye in the spotlight, yet you talk about why he should not be there.

Take a good look at the real world,
are you on the spotlight?…
