Say it ain’t so, my boy Kanye West got arrested at LAX Airport Thursday morning, reports say. Police confirm that he was arrested on charges of battery and vandalism.
People.com has a statement from the LAX police:
“Mr. West was arrested at 7:51 a.m. outside the passenger screening area by airport police on charges of vandalism,” said LAX spokesman Marshall Lowe. “Initial reports say this incident involved a paparazzo and a camera valued at more than $10,000.”
“In addition, Mr. West’s road manager was arrested for vandalism and battery,” Lowe said. “Several witnesses are being interviewed by police. West and his manager are being transported to an LAPD station where they’re expected to be booked.”
TMZ.com reports that West allegedly smashed a photographer’s camera in the American Airlines terminal. A TMZ photographer began filming the incident and when West’s road manager, Don C. grabbed the camera, a struggle followed and his manager threw the camera to the ground.
Story developing…


He just can’t go without acting a fool
come on kanye get it together!
Dag Ye!!…somebody must of pissed him off earlier….
first off all these bitches lindsey and britney den ran over a couple of damn paps and nobody went to jail but kanye goes to jail for breakin their cameras????…bullshit i have seen worse happen to the paps
Frankly i believe its more to this story because kanye dont trip off of his pictures being taken,he loves the attention,so it had to be more said or done….half of they bitch asses deserve to get that ass beat,ESPECIALLY TMZ!
we still love you ye!
The paps need to leave these celebirties alone and mind their own business.
FREE KANYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
whatever they need let him go! lol.
but how has his blog been getting updated today?!?!?!?!
Ye had another tantrum?
Papps take pics for the cash, its their profession. Asndfrankly if they didnt Concreteloop and every ithercelebrity Blog was be pretty BORING!!! So yea the paps are annoying and aggressive but thats only because these pics are in HIGH demand because of ppl like me and you; members and avid readers of celebrity blogs.
funny how kanye gets arrested but i havent seen alot of other celebs not get arrested for doing same thing or worst
chris martin threw a guy to the ground he didnt get arrested there a few who havent
i think people have it backwards of all days the paps cant give it a break by taking peoples pics in airport on this day in paticular
Wat???? I cant believe they are serious. Those photographerS are probably the most annoying people ever. So Kanye’s a criminal now? WTF….Maybe he shouldn’t have broken the camera but damn…it cant really be that be of a deal…..
BTW——Kanye s the coldest out. Point blank period..
I love how Kanye “allegedly” smashed the camera when there’s video of him doing it. But what more can I expect from Concrete Loop: booty buddies with celebrities like Kanye West.
There’s no excuse, but life in the spotlight can get wearing.

Thank you #68…people need to realize that it’s because of the paps that CL is what it is…Ye just lost his mind for a minute
Kanye = Bitch
men who throw temper tantrums like children or hoodrat women who can’t keep their composure are bichmade.
Whatever happened to the “cool” Black man?
Come on Yeezy!!!!!!!
That is what the body guard is for. Let them smash the camera and catch the charge while you are on the plane. LOL
Yeezy knows the game. Let them take the pictures in the air port what do you care???? Those shots never sell anyway.
And Don C is FUNNY. You smash property like they did you get arrested.
But if you are going to be gangster pick on a person your own size dude.
And why do all of that inside of an Airport where there are tons of Cameras?
I think Yeezy needs his girl back to calm him down for real!
But on some real stuff I love LOVE LOCKDOWN…..HA
Yezzy stick to fashion and making records….lol
Wow the video was crazy. It comes with the territory. If you’re a celeb expect to be photographed 24/7, especially if you’re relevant. What I dont understand is why some of these celebs live for the cameras one day and then want to attack the paps another day. It’s almost a full time job in a way, and they get compensated in the form of publicity. I know it gets annoying at times, but you just have to ignore it. Either give them the footage they want or ignore them.
But he was stupid for throwing a tantrum like that in major airport on 9/11 of all days. It’s almost as if he wanted the publicity.
On a side note, if there weren’t any paps then a lot of these blogs we frequent either wouldn’t exist or would be very boring.
he is such a lil bitch. all he does is wine. i have no respect for him at all. he acts like an overgrown baby
yo there really needs to be some better laws with these papparazzi people…they really be all in peoples personal…i would throw they shyt too
@ 63 It was Alexis she snatched that nookie back.
…..get real peeps with fame comes paps ….
………if you dont like it keep yo ass in the house
…… they are ok when you want yo shit to sell tho SMH
Yeah,
I saw this shit on myspace earlier today.
There is already over 500,000+ views.
it was just uploaded from TMZ to myspace a couple hourse ago.
But let’s be real,
i think that fuckin PAP provoked Kanye.
It’s crazy cuz i mean,
I kno i wouldn’t like someone taken pics of me && bein’ all up in my face everytime i’m out doing something.
Celebz crack at some point,
&& today was Kanye’s day.
On the video,
it was funny how he snatched the camera && said, “IT’S MINE, IT’S MINE.!!!”
Then he thru that shit on the ground && so did his manager.
Kanye walked off like it was nothin.
I LUV HIM MAN.!!!!
I don’t care what anyone says,
he’s still my boy && he betta be gettin out soon.
Along wit his manager.
I know i’d probably do the same thing that Kanye did wit that PAP.
FUCK THE PAPS && POLICE.!!!!!!
LMA0.!!!!!!
Why are people overreacting? People need their own personal space…. You never know what a person is going through so therefore stay your distance. If I were Kanye, I would have allowed my assistant to handle it.
FREE YEZIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
FREE MY MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
jeeze!
Kanye acting a fool in the airport on Sept 11. Tyra said if you want the paps to leave you alone to just stop and pose, they don”t want just the regular photo.
hmm. imtryingto tell you guys something aint right with this guy
@ #8- I agree, I think celebs should be entitled to some privacy when they ask. Sometimes I feel a little bad for them. You know we all get those days when we don’t want to be bothered and want a little privacy, remember his mother’s funeral, the paps were on that. I remember the photos they took of him and his guests arriving and leaving.
I ain’t gonna fault Kanye for his behaviour because I know how evasive the paps can be, even when you tell them to back off, (they don’t listen). It’s a little funny how so many celebs are getting itno trouble with law because of the paps. They should set up a law or something against it. I mean damn, isn’t what they doing stalking, if a normal man followed a woman around he’d get into trouble with the law.
Stay strong ‘Ye!!
The paps do get out of control and sometimes do provoke incidents however I don’t see Kanye as a victim of that at all. I know that people should have some privacy and if they are in your face then yes they should step off however it’s LA, that’s pap country. They’re so many of them there it should be expected. It’s not Utah or something. It’s one of the prices you pay to be a celebrity. Plus Kanye was probably on some high and mighty shit thinking he wouldn’t get arrested. Oh well. Stay out of LA if you can’t take the heat. If anything he will probably get street cred for this SMH.
FREE MY DOG MAN I WOULD BE MAD TO IF A PAPARAZZO GOT IN MY GRILL
