VIDEO: KANYE INTERVIEW + “RUN THIS TOWN” PERFORMANCE ON JAY LENO
Tuesday, September 15, 2009
Comedian and former Tonight Show host Jay Leno sat down with Kanye West for an unscheduled interview to get his side on what happened at the VMAs on Sunday night (view full interview transcript below the cut).
I would like to say this. Kanye is a genuine human being. He has been a big supporter of Concrete Loop, so even though I may not agree with the incident, I still support him. Do you Kanye. You apologized, so can we move on?
Just in case you missed it, here is the “Run This Town” performance he did with fellow rapper/entrepreneur Jay-Z and singer Rihanna. Peep the performance below.
FULL TRANSCRIPT OF KANYE/LENO INTERVIEW
JAY LENO: Have a seat, my friend. First of all, let me say thank you for honoring this commitment. A lot of times, people — things happen. They kind of back out at the last minute, or they have a publicist or someone call and say, “Oh, I’m sorry, my client’s not available.” So thank you for coming and doing this, in light of all the things that have been going on.
Tell me about your day. Have you had a tough day today?
(Laughter.)KANYE WEST: Yeah, it’s been extremely difficult. I just — just dealing with the fact that I hurt someone or took anything away, you know, from a talented artist or from anyone, because I only wanted to help people. 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 or just — you know, it’s actually someone’s emotions, you know, that I stepped on. And it was very — it was just — it was rude, period. And, you know, I’d like to be able to apologize to her in person. And I wanted to –
JAY LENO: So when did you know you were wrong? Was it afterwards? as you were doing it? When did it strike you, “Uh-oh”?
KANYE WEST: As soon as I gave the mic back to her and she didn’t keep going.
(Laughter.)JAY LENO: Let me ask you something. I was fortunate enough to meet your mom and talk with your mom a number of years ago. What do you think she would have said about this? Would she be disappointed in this?Would she give you a lecture?
KANYE WEST: Yeah. You know, obviously, you know, 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. I’m just ashamed that my hurt caused someone else’s hurt. My dream of what awards shows are supposed to be, ’cause — and I don’t try to justify it because I was just in the wrong. That’s period. But I need to, after this, take some time off and just analyze how I’m going to make it through the rest of this life, how I’m going to improve. Because I am a celebrity, and that’s something I have to deal with. And if there’s anything I could do to help Taylor in the future or help anyone, I’d like — you know, I want to live this thing. It’s hard sometimes, so –
JAY LENO: Thanks for coming here, and thanks for doing that.

i felt like his apologize was sincere. Kanye is a very humble person in my book. He may do somee wacky shit but overall he has the heart of a ten year old boy
everytime he talks i see the child in him….<3333

I was surprised that Jay brought up his mom, but I think that’s what Kanye needed to hear. The best gift that he could ever give his mom is to just….act right. To get it together. I didn’t think what he said on his blog was sincere, but after a night (and a return to sobriety), I think he meant it this time.

“NEVER FIX YOUR LIPS LIKE COLLAGEN, THEN SAY SUMTIN WHERE U END UP APOLOGIN”
KANYE WEST CANT TELL ME NOTHING!
I TOTALLY SUPPORT WHAT KANYE SAID & THE PLATFORM IN WHICH HE SAID.
HE SPOKE THE TRUTH. THAT’S KANYE. I BELIEVE THE ONLY REASON WHY HE IS APOLOGIZING BECAUSE HE IS HURT NOT FROM WHAT HE SAID B/C HE STOOD BY HIS WORDS BUT B/C OF THE WHOLE ORDEAL. IF YOU SEE ALL OF THE PICS OF HIM & AMBER THAT NIGHT THEIR DISGUSTING - HIM GRABBING HER BUT, WALKING W/ THE 64OZ OF HENNY. I MEAN COME ON THIS IS NOT YE. HE DUMPED HIS CLASSY FIANCE FOR THIS TRASHY CHICK. SO LENO HIT HOME WHEN HE SAID WHAT WOULD MOM SAY.
I LOVE YE & WILL SUPPORT HIM BUT THE FOCUS, THE REAL ISSUES ARE HEALTHCARE, THE ECONOMY & FREAKING UNEMPLOYMENT.
SIDE NOTE: TAYLOR SWIFT THIS LILY WHITE SO CALLED VICTIM WASNT GRACIOUS ENOUGH TO EVEN THANK BEYONCE. SHE CAME OFF ARROGANT - NOW LETS TRY THIS AGAIN - W/ MIC IN HAND! YES SHE KNEW SHE WAS GOING ON THAT STAGE 2 FINISH HER SPEECH. SHE SAID SO.
@BEYONCEWORLD.COM HAS THE QUOTE
BLACKS NEED 2 STOP CARRYING THIS GIRL FLAG AS IF SHE DID SOMETHING FOR THE COMMUNITY THEY LIVE IN
TEAM YE!!!

I really believe the death of his mother has sent this guy on a whirlwind of destruction…sounds deep but thast is how I feel..there is nobody around to keep him in check or say to him fix the hell up…I remember watching his cribs and when his mum was in the scene he humbled himself and you knew the power and influence this woman had on him…I hope he gets beter as what he did was the most crass, unprofessional thing an artist can do to a fellow artist…

To me this is not what Kanye is like at all so I have always thought there are many things that caused this whole incident to happen. I think his apology was sincere. I just think the alcohol got too much that evening and he let loose….I really strongly feel that since Kanye lost his mum he has found it very difficult and it’s affected him in many ways. (I just saw what UK Nubian said and I agree with what they said) His mother had a big influence on him and he has not been able to get over it, seeing as her death was sudden as well. I am glad that Jay Leno asked him about what his mother would have thought because just look at how choked up Kanye got. Not only that, I really don’t feel that this Amber Rose chick is doing him much good in the longterm either….I just hope things work out well for him in the future. Still backin Kanye all the way! And B, and Taylor Swift. Let’s all get along people

I think it’s important to note that since this incident, Kanye is reported as being racist. There are so many racist comments on youtube and twitter. It’s depressing?

i forgive him for what he did to Taylor but what he said in that French magazine rubbed me the wrong way… he’s just a little too much for me. he needs to humble himself and stop being so damn arrogant and cocky.

Watever
Tuesday, September 15, 2009 /
Ummm, in my eyes the whole thing was planned, staged and crafted from the very beginning ANYWAY….Just goes to show u that in that faction, yes I said faction of the industry (jay,bey, ye, riri) theres somthing deeper going on. Kanye was asked to that. we are all used to kanye doing/making an outburst like that before…who better for the job. I used to love BK but we all know she CANT act. When Kanye was makin his out burst beyone didnt even look shocked! if anything she looked amused, she was smiling as she outwardly mimed “no kanye” WATEVER. and Finally Taylor came out in not only a red dress. BUT A PERFECTLY MATCHING SHADE OF RED! so not only did beyonce know she was going to win the award, but she knew she would give away her acceptance speech.. SAY NO MORE!

And who the hell is Taylor Swift again? I live in the Antilles and I’ve never heard about her. Now when you have ppl singing and dancing all over the world to every song you put out, that’s when you’re talented ! You go Kanye ! Bey deserved the award, you could have dealt with it differently but in all I’m behind ya !
Oh and another thing, why did Eminem win those awards again ? All he does is gain fans and their money by making fun and insulting other artists. Can’t stomach that dude, MTV supports their own ppl, so let’s embrace and do the same to ours and not beat’em down.

Dude…needs therapy!!! His mother would turn in her grave seeing him with Amber Rose. You ever see these people so smart until they are dumb!! He’s a Prime Example of one. He kisses his friends asses as if he does not has his on talents and he is a remarkable talent. Him, Beyonce and Jay-Z need to take a hiatus because I am sick of them. God forgive me.

Angel you cant imagine how lame you sound…. so because he support your blog, you support his act ???
I hope the white media will tear him down….It wasnt only a rude act , it showed how much Kanye West feels self-entitled ….his head has got so big that his shoulders cant bear it nomore….He has lost a mojor fan base…Hopfully they wont invite him anymore to any award …he deserve it
If he is where he is today it is thank people like me who use to support him but he just doesnt care…he thinks he is the messiah sent to save pop culture…TERRIBLE

When Rihanna make money, Jay Z makes money, ultimately the Cater/Knowles family makes money… so it is stupid to put Beyonce against Rihanna. Beyonce has her style and it’s great, so does Rihanna. The media is saturated with white performers, so the more blacks we have there, the better… trying to rip them apart with comments that are not constructive, but hateful only makes the struggle harder… THINK TWICE.

Damn! Rihanna REALLY cannot sing. She also REALLY REALLY cannot dance. She stands there jerking awkwardly like an epileptic robot. Why isn’t anybody addressing this issue? Whenever I see her “performing” I actually feel embarrassed for her and it is hard to watch. I am also not a fan of her increasingly bizarre get-ups. She is a pretty girl with a nice figure but her clothes are usually AWFUL. Ciara consistently looks hotter than Rihanna. I am trying to think of any individual in the music industry right now who is LESS talented than Rihanna. I actually can’t come up with anybody….

i still love Kanye and i think Sway put it best
Kanye is an artist and us artists tend to be
extremely passionate and even a little egocentric
at times when it comes to our craft - i dont understand
Kanyes actions BUT i do understand being misunderstood.
TEAM KANYE!!!

Rihanna’s voice has a strong foreign sound to it, because she is from the Caribbean… she sounds great, but it is not for everyone… like how I don’t like opera, not because it’s bad, it’s different and not for me. Bottom line, she sells many records and has a large fan base. Rihanna is not a dancer just like Mary J. Blige is not a dancer, but Rih does have great stage presence, can’t help but watch. In regards to her style, she is constantly on the top best dress list, so I guess it is more about your taste. Oh well.

take away from his genius
like OMG taylor swift will be arite
yea he was wrong but damn he clearly
had henny in his system! he was wrong
about the way he went about expressing
his opinion but damn he ain hurt nobody
so stop trying to play him out like a effn devil SMH!!

The whole thing was planned. Beyonce and Taylor were the only people in the arena with red on . Everyone else had on Black or white and silver. WHy? Beyonce was passing some sort of sick torch to Taylor. Kanye was asked and possibly paid to do his outburst. Works for everyone… press for all 3, Taylor gets a whole new level of career, and Beyonce looks like some sort of Fairy godmother, granting this lily white princess (sarcasm) her wish. F*ckery!

I can’t believe some of you are still missing the point! Kanye is allowed to have his own opinioins just like we all are as well but the fact that he went ON STAGE, TOOK THE MIC from Taylor, AND THEN basically said Beyonce should have won is so rude and inappropriate - and if you guys can’t see that then there is something seriously wrong. Who cares if you guys thought Beyonce should have won - any award Beyonce is up for most of you think she should win but HELLO Beyonce is not the only hard working singer out there. Just because you guys don’t listen to Taylor Swift or like her doesn’t mean she doesn’t work hard as well. She has accomplished A LOT and she’s only 19! I like Taylor swift but shoot if someone I didn’t like won I would still think the same thing. You just can’t do what he did and I still can’t believe you guys are “praising” Kanye for doing so.
Also, about Beyonce’s reaction - she had the same expression as I did! She was shocked - and as much as I think Beyonce is fake, I don’t see anything fake about that reaction. She was surprised he actually did that and in no way do I think this was rehearsed and that Kanye would take all the heat for something like this. And for this to involve Taylor Swift .. it’s a weird “trio.”
—
But about the video - I found it a little funny when Kanye said he knew he was in the wrong when he gave the mic back to Taylor and she didn’t say anything. I was a little surprised that Jay brought up his mama, he’s clearly still takin’ it really hard and I felt bad for him. I think his apology was very sincere and we should all move on now.

#31 NAT,
That’s ridiculous because why would Kanye want to look like even more of a bad guy? Taylor and Beyonce may come out looking good but who would volunteer to play the roll of the mean guy when it could possibly mean losing many fans? We all know Kanye is outspoken so I don’t see anything fake about him doing that - I was surprised but at the same time not so surprised because come on - it’s Kanye.
Lol, I’m SURE Beyonce and Taylor were NOT the only ones wearing red - and if it WAS fake then wouldn’t they try not to wear the same colour because then it would look like they actually tried to look similar? Pfft!
Anything ‘out of the ordinary’ for any of you automatically means it’s fake, scripted, etc - ughh!

The whole thing with Kanye interupting Taylor Swift was staged and pre-planned,by the MTV producers of the VMA show and Ye, after the show,reporters interveiwed the MTV producers about it,and they were`nt even angry or upset,in fact,they said their goal is to make the VMA AWARDS show the best in the industry and in order to separate themselves from other award shows,they want to stir up outrageous controversy on purpose because its good for their ratings.Kanye interupting Taylor Swift is as fake as Kelly Rowland`s breasts.

This performance was the joint. Seriously, nothing compares to a LIVE performance, even Rihanna’s vocals shined. Jay Z’s vocal delivery was FIRE and Kayne’s Energy was on point.
Good Performance.
footnote: I agree with bossip Kanye is an emotional wreck, the kid is mad reaching out for attention and help. Someone needs to stop making him a cash cow and let the man greive. KANYE IS GOING TO SNAP.
Let’s hope he does not end up like Michael Jackson. Our community needs to reach out to dude and he needs to get help

Donda West would have been greatly disappointed with Kanye. He needs to do 3 things 1. Get rid of that woman. 2. Get some therapy. 3.Take notes from Shaun Carter. I hope to see him next year take six months to a year off. Get intimate with God let him mold Kanye.

I LOVE LOVE Kanye and all his antics but he stepped way over the line at the VMA’s. He apologized and all is forgiven with me. But Kanye has been acking an ass even before his mother died so I will chalk it up to - too much Henny on the red carpet.
The performance is hot and his VERSE KILLS everytime.

This is what happens when mothers baby their sons. This grown man can’t think straight without mommy. Ladies, your male child is not your man! Teach them independence now or we’ll all be sorry. I see it everyday. We are raising a nation of pussies.
Kanye’s union with amber rose amounts to self destruction. Her main objective is fame. If she really cared she would not have tolerated his behavior at VMA’s. Where is the support when you need it? But, it’s not her probelm, right?

EVERYONE has done something or somethings in life that they were ashamed of, or regretted or wish they could of taken back. Things happen, and it’s a part of life. You make mistakes, you learn, you grow. Period.
Kanye has apologized 3 times, let’s move on! All these people all over the tv & blogs saying Kanye is this & that need to look at themselves. People act as if they are angels and never did anything wrong in their lives.
Kanye has admitted he was wrong, he has admitted he’s still hurting over his mother’s death, he has said he was sorry, so just let it go! People have done worse! There are more important things going on in this world than another one of Kanye’s outburts…sheesh!
Bob Marley said it best when he said: “Before you judge me, make sure your hands are clean.” Couldn’t of said it better myself. Alot of people talkin ish about Kanye need to check themselves real quick.

kanye always acts out for attention, he does not think before he speaks. This time the 31 year old man disrespected a 19 year old girl.. Do you think if pink would’ve won he would have acted the same way….. The limelight is a drug for alot of entertainers, it is very addictive and unstoppable. Do I think he should be forgiven (YES).. Kanye needs to take some time off to reflect on his life, enjoy the blessing that has been giving to him, and take time to deal with his demons.

He was very sincere to me and I see Rihanna still is the same way, instead of walking around trying to out do Amber Rose and Lady GaGa she should have been doing them work outs Beyonce does for her vocals.. Even standing still she was off, her performance at the Benefit where she was out of breath for just saying some words was pitiful!
Kanye what you said was true but you did it in a very wrong manner, and he knows how MTV is anyway so what was the big deal!

Ya`ll negroes have been played and tricked,like Malcom X said,you have been bamboozled,MTV and Kanye cooked up the whole scheme and made the fake interruption of Taylor appear genuine and real,how long people,how long will black people allow themselves to be tricked ,used and bamboozled by white folk ,Kanye allowed himself to be used in this fake scheme by the white MTV producers,why did`nt the producers ask and use Eminem to pull of this fake scheme,because Eminem is smart enough to realize that he would be used by MTV to bring them high ratings and negative reaction from the public would hurt his record sales.

Tuesday, September 15, 2009 /
I approve of his apology. He has a long way to go to deal with his issues but this is the first step right here: admitting that you were wrong. I like how he said he didn’t even want to try and justify what he did. Awww honey, your mom would’ve been so proud.
I am sorry but I can never stop hating on Rihanna! Where did she get that body and who do I have to bribe to get one???? Ugh

this is exactly why people like kanye continue to do the things they do because as soon as they apologize or if there a supporter of your blog you forgive them this wont be kanye last outburst or the last stunt an black man or women will pull since we are all so forgiving of them once again and thank you kanye for setting black people back a few more years

Ok let’s get this right. Kayne West has to make a national apology to gain his respect back but no has seen or heard from Joe Wilson after he called our PRESIDENT a liar on national tv. WOW this is really white america. Do you people not see what is happening. The president can’t get respect but Taylor Swift can. SMDH

as it is

aww kanye, i feel sorry for him, these people take every opportunity to put down a black man. i agree what he did was not right, but dang he aint killed nobody!
and taylor swift- so u couldnt even thank beyonce??? shame!

I love Kanye. People can say what they want to say about him, but he only said what so many people in the audience were thinking and afraid to say. Jay Leno didn’t have to bring up his mother because she didn’t get on the stage and say it. It was atually a low blow to Ye beause Leno didn’t even say rest her soul when making his comment. I think he was just as mad as any other white person, and that was his way of getting back at Ye. Hell, you could tell he was offended by the question, he didn’t even answer that mess. TEAM YE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He may have been sincere, this moment with Jay is further proof of what I have been saying to people about Kanye all along, the man needs some psychological intervention. He needs therapy to deal with the death of his mom and other issues. It is no excuse for his behavior, but he may be able to be a better person with it. He has no true friends apparently because they would be suggesting this. Sad when you think of it. His chick is all about being seen and “arm candy” and haivng a ood time. I just do not see anything genuine in her. I would love to know what her conversation was with him after he pulled that stunt. As for theories of staged…I don’t think so. That best female video is just not that important to Beyonce to go through all of that. The woman has Grammy’s, which is a far higher achievement that is given for her voice, not how good she can look. I just don’t buy that one. Sorry.

I do not believe in any way that this incident was staged. I have no idea why people are saying that. If this was staged then someone from Ye’s camp would have admitted that due to the backlash. I didn’t agree with what Kanye did but I did agree with what he said. I honestly never heard Taylor’s song or saw her video. I do know that Single Ladies was performed all over you tube, Saturday Night Live and other places. The song and video was huge. So yes I agree that Beyonce should have won over Taylor. We’re all entitled to our opinion. The thing about that is no one asked Kanye for his opinion at that moment. There is a time and a place for everything and you can’t jump on stage and take the mic from someone to state your opinion.
I do believe that Kanye was sincere in his apology. Kanye’s a lot of things but he has always stated his mind. This is the same man that called out George Bush on national television and said what we all were thinking. I do believe him to be a liar. He may have been drunk but not a liar.
I will still support your music Ye and I pray that you get the rest and time to heal that you need!
Peace!

That`s the way the whole entertainment industry is today,it`s nothing but hype and fakery,back in the day,artists like Stevie Wonder,Bob Marley,Aretha Franklin,James Brown etc.,etc., they actually had talent ,they did`nt have to rely on hype and fakery to interrupt someone while they were singin like Kanye.s They let their talent speak for themselves,today everythings fakery and hype,from autotunes to Kanye`s fake interruption of Taylor Swift,today rappers like Kanye and Jay-Z, have run out of ideas to rap about,you can only rap about how expensive your watch is so many times before it gets stale and then they have to resort to hype and fakery to sell themselves.

not a big fan of kanye, but he apologized and that’s commendable. he’s just got to learn that “kicking in the door” approach isn’t a good look for him and it’s not appropriate for the fight he’s trying to fight…
but, forgive and forget…let’s move on.

I’ve said it before and I will say it again. Kanye has the ability to be greatness. He has the ability to birth a song from the music to the lyrics and make it hot. That is genius. However, his cockiness will destroy him if he doesn’t find a place in God to get his humbleness and humility. That doesn’t mean, become a yes-sir no-sir type of guy, but just be humble. His talent is so great it shines on its on and doesn’t need an extra toot from the source - Kanye.
P.S. I could see when I was watching the VMA’s that Kanye instantly knew what he did was wrong. I don’t know if it was the first boo, but it was the first time I ever saw, literally, him regret what he was saying. You’ll be alright. By any means necessary, get that meeting with Taylor Swift. Send her flowers or some gesture of apology.
Peace,
Aaliyah M.

Kanye realized he was wrong when he gave the mic back to Taylor because he got booed. If people whould have clapped it would have been different, whether she kept going or not.
He has a tremendous ego and until he realizes that his opinion of talent is not the only opinion he is going to keep doing the same thing.
I do think that alcohol fueled an already ignightable fire, but part of being grown is knowing when to say, “I’ve had to much, or better yet, maybe I shouldn’t drink in this atmosphere.”
His apology is definitely accepted but the more he has has to apologize for the same thing makes it seem less sincere.
Lastly, just to be sure, was it single ladies Bey was nominated for? If so, Bey (who I love) has danced in a room with a coulple of chicks behind her too many times for me to think that her video should have won over Taylor’s.

WOW, Kanye risked his career to help BoreYawnSay try to look like a She-Ro so she can stay relevant. LMFAOOOOOO The media is not even focused on boring Bey’s captain save a becky move. LOL!!!!
Rihanna sounded really good last night. She is so damm confident on stage and fits in perfectly. Noticed how Kanye sauntered straight to Rihanna when he performed, both times. And let’s not talk about Jigga always gushing over Rihanna.

Please, now he wants to play the victim to get sympathy. He is upset that his peers in the industry including the African American peers are lashing out at him. This is not the first time this Mama’s boy has acted a fool at an awards show. He is a jerk. I always knew that he would destroy his own career with his arrogance and mouth. Sorry, but this dude needs to step away from the limelight.

I love Ye, and though he was in the wrong this whole thing is OTT. He has apologised, people need to learn to move on. Like someone has already said, someone insulted the president and I didn’t hear crap asbout them going on television and apologising, yet Ye does this and people wanna tear him down like he wished death upon her. WTF?
Now I know Kanye was in the wrong for that move, but we as black people need to support our own, not follow the white media.
I believe Yeezy is truly sorry for the way he went about it, but he spoke nothing but the truth so I won’t condemn him for it. You could tell just by Jay bringing up his mother that he hasn’t prop[erly grieved, so maybe it’s best he takes some time out. But just know Ye, we love you!!! Real talk. I’m glad that there is someone out there not afraid to speak the truth, even if that makes him unpopular….you see the whole thing with Bush not caring about black people. It needed to be said, and Kanye was right to do so.

Another benefit to those that planned this mess, NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT MICHAEL, JANET, OR HOW GREAT IT WAS to see her on stage for her brother. After Kanye did that, and the rest of the sickness unfolded quickly from Jack Black’s “prayer” on, everyone forgot about Janet’s tribute.
And whoever criticized my earlier post, all you have to do is go back and watch. NO ONE ELSE had on red. It’s downright fishy. Taylor and Beyonce’s dresses look like they were literally cut from the same cloth.

@58 Keep It Real. U are right, I no longer think it was staged. Someone would have said so by now.
People, help me out. Why is this such a big deal? Is it because Taylor is the perfect image of the virginal white girl that we must all uphold and protect?
Yes, Kanye was wrong. Got that. But Kanye was being Kanye. He would have done the same if Keisha Coles was up there. Same outrage? Presidental Uproar?
Doubtful.
This is not me trying to take up for Ye. Ye was an ass. I’ve called him out many of times b4 right here on CL. But fair is fair. This has gone way to far. All this ugly racial stuff because Taylor did not get her “moment”. For the last time people, this was the VMA’s. Not the Oscars.
Ye has been on the edge for sometime. Ray Charles can see that. He is hugging that bottle of Henny like a teddy bear and we are shocked? Where they do that at?
I just want to know if Adam Levine looses his mind and interrupts Janelle Monet at a VMA would it make national news. Ponder that.
It’s time for Taylor to do the classy thing and let Ye off the hook. But she won’t. She is to busy riding this to the bank by acting like she was robbed of her virginity.
NEVER heard of her b4 this. That’s right, NEVER.
People are throwing out CD’s and treating him worse tha R.Kelly, Janet Jackson(nipple gate era) and Chris Brown combined. Enough is enough people.

Never heard this chick’s song or knew her name…but she should thank Kanye cause now we all know her.

People actually think what Kanye did was worse then Sen. wilson calling the President a liar and being disrespectful
People really got their priorities mixed up, whites have been disrespectful to us for thousands of year and now that we (Kanye and Serena) are being disrespectful, it so wrong, like blacks cannot have meltdowns and become upset were just suppose to bow down to these whites and try not to step on their toes, slavery is over and we can say what the hell we want just like they do whether its wrong or not
And on top of that he was telling the truth!

Rih is sooo hawt. She hands down is a fashion orgasm. She really looks AMAZING errytime she steps out, even on her days she just be shopping. All who says she looks awful prolly looks shot. Im sure she would better than ALL of yall on her off day. Oh, and her singing is DAYUM good. She has a unique sound, and is different frm all the rest. I guess erryone needs to sound like Patti, or Aretha. Music is not all about power, its also about musicality. So Rih may not have all the power but what she does have is Musicality, Originality, Style and Flare

10, 15, 31, I agree with those comments. I don’t really care if Kanye is sincere or not, he has done this multiple times. He really needs to check himself and his cocky attitude. The world does not revolve around him, Beyonce, and the rest of their crew. Everyone else has the right to have an opportunity for success and be rewarded for it. True enough, Kanye is a genius at what he does. I hope he gets himself together because I don’t think the entertainment business can afford to loose someone as talented as him. I can’t understand what it is like to loose a parent. I hope he takes some time away from the spotlight for some healing before he self-destructs.

This is absolutely ridiculous and while I do think people can get over it, it doesn’t change how arrogant and whiny of a person he is! That’s crazy y’all can forgive a grown man who made a little girl cry during one of the biggest moments of her life, but insist that Chris is an actually WOMAN BEATER WHEN HE ONLY WENT OFF ON RIHANNA ONE DAMN TIME because he was fed up of her bs… and this is coming from someone who doesn’t even care for Chris Brown’s music!

#87… My point is you are reaching with your comparisons. They’re not comparable due to the nature of each entertainer’s actions. Perhaps a better argument would be Shawn Merriman vs Chris Brown; not Kanye who only yelled on a mic. Yes, it was wrong… but I’m sure most would agree on the scale of wrongful crimes, Chris Brown’s was far worse. And while I am pretty much indifferent about Chris Brown altogether (don’t particularly care for her voice though he is a great dancer), he was still wrong. It does not matter “what Rihanna did to him during the relationship or what she did in the car to make him go off.”… That’s the thing that you young people don’t understand. You cannot blame someone else’s actions for your own. Take accountability for what YOU did. Unless she had a knife to his throat or some other deadly weapon, or unless he came out looking as banged up as she did (which he didn’t from the next day pictures that were shown), there were simple non-aggressive steps that he could have taken to avoid this whole thing completely. Like pulling the car over and getting out and then calling a cab to get him — he has enough money. Of course that’s neither here nor there… do I think he should be punished via his career for what he did? No. But unfortunately success in the entertainment industry when you are an artist is not solely dependent on your talent as much as it is your likability and image. Domestic violence is very serious, and as a counselor that deals with these cases, there are too many people who are always attempting to blame the woman and “what she did” for a man should have clearance to go upside her head.

When I saw Kanye take the mike from Taylor and said what he said my mouth dropped. He was dead wrong and out of place. Beyonce didn’t need him to say that, and she couldn’t believe it. I read some comment where someone said Taylor have plenty money, and that’s fine, but everyone have feeling. As far as Kanye I feel that he needs a lot of help, because he have been holding his real grief of his mom’s death inside, and for the first time I saw his pain when Jay asked him what would his mom say about that. I was overwhelmed because I have a son and I wouldn’t want him to treat people that way, even if he wasn’t famous. My prayers are with Kanye, and even if he may be overboard we need to reach out to him. Anytime someone walks on the red carpet with a bottle for the world to see, there is something wrong.

I love the Californian audience they are so FORGIVEN because they know that the media is blowing this out of porportion and that this is not that deep. Taylor Swift will certainly get over it considering the demeaning things that were blogged about her prior to this incident. We got better and bigger things to worry about or be angry about than some celeb being hurt by another celeb. I mean if you’re angered by the whole thing it says how empty your life is…move on.

I get so sick of people making excuses for POOR and INAPPROPRIATE behavior.
This happened with Chris Brown and now it happening with Kanye West.
I think as a community some of us are just a little too permissive of things like this.TAKE RESPONSIBILITY! WRONG IS WRONG. This has nothing to do with Taylor’s RACE. She is an artist who DESERVED her award and her MOMENT because those giving it felt she did. You can have any opinion on if YOU think Beyonce should have gotten but but you are not handing out the awards MTV is and it’s at their discretion that Taylor won. It’s not for Kanye West to jump on stage and act like some self righteous idiot. Kanye is not the voice of this generation, he is not Jesus Christ, and he is not any “GENIUS” this I’m sure is ALL news to this man.
Beyonce did the best thing but I’m not sure she really had much of a choice here. According to Taylor she was told to be on stand by back stage that Beyonce may have something to say. Regardless Beyonce did the right thing and she did it with CLASS. Kanye needs to grow up and realize his place in the world.
And people need to stop making excuses like what he did was correct in ANY sense. And stop making racial comments!!! Those racial comments directed at Kanye are wrong and the ones on here are also wrong. I like Tayor Swift and people should open up to her music before you judge her for being white.
I mean come on!

Chris Brown is somewhere smiling because he knows somebody else is in trouble instead of him. All Kanye had to do was after the show when somebody interviewed him be like well I think Beyonce should have won. He didn’t have to do it right then and there. That’s what everybody is mad about. Its like who is he to think he has the right?He needs to go sit in time out. He acts like a child to me. He reminded me of a 10 year old scared and confused little boy last night.

“The prettiest people do the ugliest things.” Jesus walk with Kanye. Leave Kanye alone. The little white girl had her moment thanks to Beyonce/Sasha. The VMAs are not that serious. Come on people. The little girl should thank Mr. West because I had no idea who she was prior to Sunday.
Kanye’s mom died a senseless death. She definitely did not need plastic surgery. She was a beautiful woman. However, Mr. West needs to take some time off and regroup. Memo to Kanye: You better not kill yourself over a mistake. Just learn from it. That is all it takes. I am praying for you. You are still my favorite rapper on the rap scene today and I am 41 years old. : - )

Who believes this jerk is sincere? How many times before hasn’t he thrown fits and acted like a jack ass. Hell, even the President said he’s an idiot. This guy has no humility and it’s gonna take something to bring him back to his roots. You can’t continue to step on people and think that only you and your opinions are important. He has no talent and no class. I eagerly await his 15 minutes to be up in the biz. Bye Kanye cause they can officially stick a fork in your ass now. If Jay stood by his side then he’s just as stupid. Per another site he was mad at Bey for doing what she did. Hell if the clique is wrong then they’re wrong hands down. Throwing shade to your wife over a negro is dead wrong. Especially when he is in the wrong.

……….Question?,
……..Have you guys ever heard of the phrase……..
……..”If I break your finger, you’ll 4get about the pain in your leg.”
……..My reason 4 asking this question, is because of the rascist hatred
……..that I’ve been seeing on the internet.
……..I was on Myspace yesterday, & Tom (the creator of myspace) did a
……..peoples poll. He was basically asking every1, what they’d thought about the
……..Kanye & Taylor Swift situation?
……..Everybody gave their opinions & so did I………..but this one particular opinion
……..really angered me……1 of the white guys referred to Ye as a n-word.
……..He said, & I quote……..”Typical behavior from a n*****.”
……..I was soOo heated, that it litterally took my attention away from what Ye did.
……..Which brings me 2 my point/question.
……..I’m not excusing what Kanye did, I’m just saying that it discusses me that
……..certain people r trying 2 use this incident 2 spew their rascist garbage,
……..and now that they have turned this situation into something it’s soOo not,
……..now the attention is on them……..well………my attention is on them, I know it
……..shouldn’t be, but it is.
……..”If I Break Your Finger, You’ll Forget About The Pain In Your Leg”
……..I guess that’s what that man did, he made me 4get about the pain in my leg.

CL : i think you are doing a dis service to “us” ( your non celeb real supporters) by writing off the effed up stuff celebs do because they are your supporter.
Kanye West is known for his arrogance and everyone thinks it ok because he his a celeb. if he were a “genuine human” he would have known it was inappropriate to do that to anyone and that he’s opinion isnt all important .

These R&B singers are PROSTITUTES. Beyonce and Rihanna constantly perform onstage wearing actual PANTIES and letting their audience see right up inside their little hairy kunts during the performance (especially Beyonce, who writhes across the stage and spreads her thick legs to give audience a better view of her kunt).
What happened to simply wearing a pretty dress and SINGING instead of being a prostitute? It’s about time the police arrest some of these R&B whores for Indecent Exposure and Lewd Conduct.

Angle is saying Kanye is “human” and she sticks behind Kanye, well that that is her personal view. I don’t know if I agree with her 100% on that. Like Oprah said (in the Chris Brown thing) just because someone supports you does not mean you are then compelled to support him or her when they are in the wrong.
I think Kanye is human but guess what?? So is Taylor Swift. I know Angel made it clear that she does not support what he did but I think we should all allow this to play out.
When people do irresponsible and hurtful things they then immediately want to be forgiven on THEIR timetable and then demand that others “MOVE ON” as well because they offered an apology. While that in theory this should be the way things work that is not reality of the world. The Kanye thing is totally different from the Serena Williams situation, which I personally think people are blowing well out of proportion and I really support how she is dealing with it. Serena does not have a history of poor behavior on the court and it really was a bad moment (and call) for her and she does NOT have to apologize or say she is sorry for how she reacted outside saying it was a bad moment for her and she wants to move on and it’s in the past. Kanye however has a LONG history of this type of abusive behavior and we need to take that into account as well. These types of outbursts are nothing new for him but this time he picked the wrong person. Taylor is a HUGE artist and while many of you may not “know who she is” that does not take away from her popularity or how young she is. Kanye made a critical error and he is going to pay for it. And that is EXACLY what should happen. Like Chris Brown this is no accident and it’s about time Kanye understands that there are other HUMANS that live around him as well. Karma is a you know what. And sorry Kanye is no victim and Jay asked all the right questions and made Kanye come back down to earth. Or should I say the American public did that when they said enough is enough.

Okay we all know Kanye was wrong, and he apologized already “real or not” so let’s move on. We are giving this wayy to much attention and if we are concerned about Lil Taylor’s feelings we would not keep giving Kanye rudeness any attention.
In fact Mr West…I pray you get yourself together! I pray you get people around you that can help you use your talent for good, and get the blood-suckers away from you. I’m sorry Amber needs to go. How about a full day of Taylor Swift music on your blog to show true apology to her and her family.
The world don’t revolved around Jay-Z, Beyonce, or you. These fans are way too damn much these days. It’s simply stupid to allow your “ego” to get too big listening to all the “yes” people around you 24/7. Look at your life after your Mother died Kanye and look at all the people that came and are around you; if they are not helping you cut the lost. Get new friends to help you and will not give you what you always want.
I like your blog, but give Taylor a full day coverage. It’s only right! Yes, you do have a right to your opinion, but she have a right to be respected. I don’t think you would’ve appreciated it if someone did that to you if that was you up there or Beyonce. I know you probably feel sorry. Let me see Taylor coverage on your blog. Thanks! still a fan!

His mom already knew he was a fool… he was doin that crazy sh!t and actin like an ole dick-in-the-booty azz nigga when she was still living. so, nothing new there. what kanye did at the awards was wrong… period. he figured out what he did was wrong when he gave t. swift back the mic and recieved boos. smdh are u serious? was that really the best answer kanye? lmfao. even the studio audience was laughing. im sure if he was up there and somebody had done that to him, he wouldnt have liked it. anyway he apologized… yea lets move on. but something like this will happen again. and he will apologize again. and again it wont be sincere to me. i just hope that if it does happen again somebody will come thru and beat his azz. a good azz woopin will always bring a nigga back to reality. cause some of these niggaz be thinkin they untouchable like Jesus

@ Truthfully Speaking….now just what in the world would posess you to compare Kanye and Chris Brown’s situation? I can tell that you are probably young….I wouldn’t care if Rihanna took a dump in his Lamborghini…to the EXTENT that he beat her was totally wrong….he didn’t just push her….he bit her, choked her unconcious and hit her repeatedly…although I think everyone is human and make mistakes….he should definitely be punished more than picking up some damn trash…these celebrities just get off with everything….now had a random ass man on the streets beat his girl down like that he would most definitely be doing jail time!
As for both Kanye and Chris I think it is something within them they are battling with themselves that they both need to seek professional help with…in Kanye’s case his mother death….in Chris Brown case who knows? I’m sick of you girls saying “If you hit a man then he should hit your ass back”….You know how much strengh a man have? It is a clinical fact that they obtain more strengh than us females no matter how tough we think we are…. They can kill you with their bare hands…just like ol’ boy on the news that choked his girl to death after she slapped him…. then he freaked out, chopped her up, and barbecued her…you think if she could she wouldn’t got out that chokehold?????? I’m damn sure she tried!!!! But it was a man…think about it little girls…

I believe it was publicity stunt gone wrong. We all know that Beyonce did NOT deserve to be nominated, let alone win any award. For a black and white video with her shaking her ass with two tranny’s. Are you serious?
Anyway, he was wrong and he was man enough to apologize.
Taylor Swift stated yesterday that she was told to stand back stage with a live mic. She had no idea what was going on. Then ironically Beyonce wins “video of the year” so staged and scripted.
She thens give Taylor the chance to finish her speech. I am sorry but this entire stunt was wrong.
Jay, Kanye, and Rihanna killed it ! I really like the performance !
Kanye has a lot of unresolved issues about mother’s passing and he needs help and a lot of love.

Some of you will fall for anything, he apologized because of the backlash not because he actually cared. Did you notice when he stated he was upset because music awards were suppose to what he imagined or something like that? Kanye had a hissy fit and this is not his first time getting on stage and ruining someone else’s moment….. I could understand if this was his first offense but its like his 2nd or 3rd.

Im starting to believe that in some ways, my best friend works for LAX and some people flew back from NY afterwards…. she heard a couple of people (no names) stating that it was a stunt. IDK….
TMZ reported that Matthew approached Taylor in her dressing room to make sure she was okay, then he asked how can they make it up. If you notice when Beyonce called Taylor up she was in the back of stage not in her seat, and she had a microphone. MTV and the Knowles needed to do damage control.

For anyone wondering who Taylor is check the billboards. She held her spot longer than Sasha has. Someone stated that they seen this stunt as Beyonce passing the torch. She didn’t have to pass it, Taylor took it. We know if she had passed the torch to anyone, it would have been her sister. My hope is that Beyonce’s part was sincere with Taylor. At least then we will know that she has grown from her DC days. She showed more love for Taylor than she did the ex-DC members. As far as Kanye, he only played out what Beyonce and Jayz was thinking.

First I don’t normally comment but I do want to say this; If a camera was around everytime you said something stupid, how would you feel? He was wrong and he apologized. He is at the end of the day a son who loved his momma and lost his momma without breathing room. I have a 10 yr old son and I have an inoperable brain tumor when I told my son last year that we just have to take each day as it comes he has been acting out very angrily at school ever since. If you are a Momma’s boy or you know one then you know there is nothing like the bond between a mother and her son. My son looks at me like I hang the moon and Kanye looked at his mom the same way. It will take years for him to deal with this and this is just part of the process. The way some people are overreacting is very similar to the House vs. Field mentality “Oh no massa I won’t let him near you again”, please get over it. This child is very sweet (Taylor) and all but all he did was say Beyonce should have one he didn’t curse Taylor, hit Taylor, or curse anyone else for that matter. What should have happened was MTV shld have stopped him on the Red Carpet or anyone of the people who took a drink with him (including Joe old ass).

Kanye’s has not grieved they way he should have, this is more than clear, he has been on since his mother died, he has been non-stop, because if he stops he has to face the fact that the person who loved him unconditionally is gone, this is a hard thing to embrace, if Beyonce and Jay-Z were as classy as everyone is trying to claim, they would help their friend get the help he needs. As far as what he did ,it was dumb, he has apologized And to bring his dead mother into this was going over broad, It is interesting that Jay Leno did not tell him he could not preform on his show, wonder way. so lets give it a break the world has not stopped. As far as boycotting him, then people will have to boycott Jay-Z, Louie V, all of the acts he has produced, so lets move on. The same people that are so outraged about this incident are the same people who have applauded Joe Wilson the congressman who disrespect the President by calling him a liar, who is the racist

this is not kanye’s 1st time of acting up at an awards show so i still dont get why people are blowing it outta proportion. wth, she won best female…so f*ck what…it’s the VMAs….this was not the Oscars or something more prestigious…just let it go damn!
white people are all against him and now his own race too?! i dont condone arrogance or stupidity but he does deserve some support. yaw are too harsh. it was inappropriate….yea, but c’mon, he’s apologised. that should be good enough for all of us
and Taylor, that ungrateful child did not THANK Beyonce…what she failed to remember is that Beyonce did not have to let her make that speech, but she did and taylor should have thanked her FIRST before continuing….
oh and how on earth did beyonce and taylor end up wearing the exact same dress colour, and how come taylor was ‘conveniently’ backstage when beyonce called her out. why wasnt she sitting with the audience…something doesnt sound right
@ Angel, i 100% agree with you. he’s only human for God’s sake. team Kanye all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that being said, kanye had no right doing what he did but he’s apologised and that’s all that matters.
btw, where was security when he and lil mama went on stage?!
MTV is whack, trust them to overexagerrate the whole situation
btw, it IS a race thing! had it been the other way round, Lawd knows it wouldnt have generated this much publicity and that’s just the truth. think about it, if Eminem interrupted someone like rihanna’s speech, no one would have cared smh

This issue of allowing the black man to do wrong and then be forgiven with the quickness is pervasive in our communities. And, i’m a black man myself. DAMN!

@165 speak for yourself when you say everybody knows rihanna can’t sing or dance. Rihanna sings just fine to me. In fact I love her albums, and the kind of music she does. I think everyone that hates rihanna are just jumping on the rihanna can’t sing bandwagon because its the easiest and most convienient way to go, when trying to disgrace and discredit her. There are people in the game who sound way worse than rihanna and you all don’t be up in here calling them out. Give the girl a break . I know if rihanna wanted to, she can put down a piece of dancehall and soca whine on you all to show you all what her waist line can do. She chooses not to dance. She’s not the only artist that don’t dance on stage. She’s doing just fine and getting along without dancing. with all them hits she has, who needs dancing.

People on this site kill me. Buy his music all you want. But he is still a jackass and you all know he was wrong for what he did apology or not. You can’t blame his actions on his mother’s death. He was doing stupid shit before she died. Are you gonna blame his actions then on her too? Thought not.

@ mari
you rihanna stans know she cant sing which is why you talk about her fashion sense ALONE
one idiot had the nerve to say the vmas was missing her fashion game…wtf is up with that messed up comment?!
a lot of you are a disgrace to yourselves with the amount of ignorance you display, i blame it on the excess stanning you do, it prevents you from reasoning
you think she can sing?! *re-watch the performance*
some of you are still in denial, no one needs to jump on any silly bandwagon, if everyone’s been saying the same thing since she came out, then something must be wrong.
GET SOME SINGING AND DANCING LESSONS YOU STIFF BAJAN CHILD!

Kanye did not apoligize for the way he felt, he apologized for offending Taylor . He prompted Jay Leno to ask about his mother to shed a few tears which was a good PR move. I don’t blame him whatever works. I do think his spazams are a result of the death of his mama. He was already crazy so imagine the death of his mom. Anyway that mess is old news. Life goes on. We off that get over it!

Kanye wasn’t sincere. He knew exactly what he was doing, who he did it to, and why he was doing it. He wouldn’t have done that to anybody else, so Taylor was a perfect target for his publicity scheme. Kanye is KNOWN for these kind of outbursts, so I don’t know why yall so understanding, when he pulls this ALL THE TIME. Yall so gullible…..

@190, the same way you think she can’t sing and feel passionately about it, is the same way some of us feel she can sing, and feel passionately about it. Different strokes for different folks. I always believed rihanna can sing, and I don’t just mention her fashion, because I think she is more than just that. The people who are clearly not her fans, want to relegate her to just a fashionista, because they don’t like her, and cannot understand why she is still here and shining. The reason is because she has fans that support her. So just because someone supports and stand up for rihanna they are ignorant. I can say the same for yourself and others who stand against her.

all i have to say is power can come back to hunt you.
The phantom 3 better watch there step. Because what comes around will come back and hit you 3 times hard. How you do others will come back.
Jay-Z = if you think you have power and high that power can bring you down to lose everything. Beyonce will leave you and your money want be right and Rhianna will be label a whore.
I think the truth will come out between Jay-Z & Rhianna.
Kanye need help and i think its time for him to seek it.
Jay-Z will pay the ultimate price for what he done . And Rhianna will have so many people look at her so different. Rhianna ain’t what people think she is .
Rhiannna will do what Jay- Z tell her. She does not have a mouth.
Beyonce i applaud you so much. And respect you so deeply what is right and what is wrong you became a true woman. And i hope you kick Rhianna azz. Knock some guts in her but.
Chris stay away from Rhianna. No brain!!!!!! Jay-Z is making a fool out of her.

heck, you have to be mentally ill to say yes to half of the things those masons do. i kno he is regretting everything but he is far too deep now.
they told him to show up to the mtv awards with liquor so it would all make sense to the average joe as to why he would walk up there and state that. great “acting” kanye & beyonce……shoot its the best ive ever seen beyonce show emotion.

I blame the industry for this. First off he has done this in the past and has gotten away with it. So why should he had thought what he did was out of line…
Why was he allowed to not only drink a bottle of Henny on the red carpet but while at the awards…
The industry is to loosey goosey and they need to crack down in a major way.
Kanye is doing more apologizing than Chris Brown at this point. I doubt this will end his career. I wonder if Jay Z will stand by his artist in his time of need or let him fall. He was just patting himself on the back last week for making Kanye have a successful career… where is his loyalty today.

Will people get off Kanyes back? I dont like Kanye. I think he’s annoying and arrogant and he’s not funny. However, I still wonder if it was staged anyway not by taylor or beyonce but by Kanye and Mtv but if it wasnt and it was all just him, he apologized over and over, let it go! For jay leno to ask him what his mom wouldve thought about his behavior? COME ON! He didnt kill anyone. Geez I bet Taylor is extremely happy this has happened as well as Beyonce. Now everyone is so in love with Taylor right now with taking up for her, she’s getting so much plublicity and Beyonce looks like mother Theresa. Damn looking how it turned out, it looks like he did them both a favor. Hearing what he said on Jay leno apologizing like he did something so immoral, he didnt put his hands on the girl, MOVE ON people. And for president obama even off the record to call Kanye a jackass, love you obama but seriously why even comment on celeb antics?

For people to bring his mom in this is vindictive. Kanye was this way when his mom was alive. Let it be DAMN! Speak on something worth the headache like healthcare and Joe Wilson or better yet Chris Brown smacking Rihanna upside the head and claiming he doesn’t recall himself doing it. Let the man be. If doesn’t get invited to the VMA’s who cares he will just produce songs that will continue to be nominated for VMA’s. This world is so shallow and superficial. Why you claim he needs help, all yall that saw something wrong with it need help because you missed the bigger picture. Kanye said some people graduate but be still stupid. Wake up just because Obama is in office doesn’t mean that oppression doesn’t exist!

Kanye west if you by any chance read this. I am asking you to get yourself checked out mentally.
Alot of celebrities start out with little antics. And we the viewers laugh not realizing that there is a bigger issue that is going on inside of the person. I truly believe that Kanye will be diagnosed with some kind of bi-polar or Schizophrenia. He will truly recover after the death of his Mother. I get that. He also needs to take time and Grieve. Look at the choices he has made in the women he has hooked up with and his antics atthe VMAs. This is just the beginning.

And i don’t think he could apologize enough. That girl didn’t deserve what he did regardless of how he was feeling at the time. But black people have a tendency to accept such foolishness and of course Kanye will be forgiven; by blacks only! The country music world surely is not going to and I hope they come down on him hard.

ENTERTAINMENT NEWS:
Kanye West and Chris Brown have something in common, they’re both on the “uninvited” list for mainstream events. Both men need a top notch crisis management team. Kanye stepped over the line regarding his latest outburst.
Diehard fans of West and Brown will remain loyal, but their mainstream fan base is dead in the water.
Neither will have forthcoming endorsements and both men are currently blacklisted by the powerful syndicate that runs mainstream Hollywood.
Both artists will make money in urban markets but mainstream will remain off limits.

I love my people but yall get on my damn nerves! I LOVE Kanye West I’m one of his biggest fans. However right is right and wrong is wrong. If Emiminem would have did that shyte to Beyonce or RiRi yall would have chewed his ass out! N no apologize would have been enough.
This isn’t the first time kanye did this shyte, yall obviously forgot when he rushed the stage at another awards show when he didn’t win!
This aint black and White, this aint Taylor and Kanye. Its right and wrong and what’s wrong is that he took away someones moment from them. No One did that shyte to him or you. So you couldn’t imagine the embaressment she felt standing on that stage feeling like she didn’t deserve what she earned (whether you or Kanye agrees)
I do believe his apology was sincere however if she did continue her speech and people would have supported him I’m sure he wouldn’t be as remorseful only more COCKY! Kanye did shit like this b4 his mom died so that’s no excuse. He just gotta deal w/ the public and his inner issues and move past. Hopefully a great man and some awesome music will come out of it! Cuz I LOVE KANYE!

Smh @ rihanna. she can’t even sing the HOOK of a song without hitting ear-bleeding notes. she hasn’t improved at all actually. it’s not like she’s dancing hard and singing for 4 minutes straight.

I was trying to get on a Kanye Blog but they are down at the time, I even opened a twitter account just to talk and get my word out. i hope he reads this or maybe concreteloop can send to a person that knows him . Dont let people get you down to where you cant be yourself. You can not be who they want you to be. I love you Kanye good or bad, what you did may have not been right, but who am I to judge, those without sin cast the first stone. like Rick James say coke is a hell of a drug well so is henny. That was not you we all fall from grace and show our butts at times, people who follow the crowd will be on the next real soon, they just saw an opportunity to bring you down any way they could. I know you are Humble , STAY STRONG

and there’s just something about that Taylor I don’t like, it’s something in those evil looking eyes, her spirit doesn’t come across as geniune, I’m an intuitive kind of gal….
and I saw how she hugged all those ladies with both arms on THE VIEW, but when she got to Whoopie, she only did the one arm hug, I caught that Missy, yes I did….

Um, people, are we forgetting that he was DRINKING HENNESSY??!!!!
…STRAIGHT!!!!
I mean, yea the man is out spoken, and yea, he needs some closure therapy and yes, amber might not be the one for him…but I think his actions were escalated by his inebriation. I don’t know Kanye’s alcohol tolerance but….that henny was almost (if not past) halfway point. That HAD to have a big influence on his actions.
Taylor Swift is wack. That video was wack. MTV is wack. Kanye was rude.

@ 253 alcohol is a truth serum, it enhances how a person truly is, not who they are not…
when I drink I just giggle and flow even more than I do when I’m sober….
If a person is already mean, they get meaner…
what I’m saying is people like to use alcohol as an ‘excuse’, but it’s who they really are to the 10th power, but it’s still them.
just saying….

Kanye Fan

As a Kanye fan, I was deeply upset about the infamous moment. In fact, I was one of the first fans to comment about how shameful it was for Ye to do what it did on his blog…Its like, I love Kanye but I am tired of defending him and this was almost the final straw….But then he comes on Jay Leno, with those sincere puppy eyes…sorrow written all over…..Now I remember why I am a fan. I dont expect everyone to understand but let’s keep it real. What other Black artist do you know that expresses their emotions raw like that? Heck, what other man do you know that puts himself out like that? Kanye is such a free spirit. People aspire to be that but dont want to handle the consequences. I always said that Ye did give time for him to grieve. His actions speaks for himself. He seriously needs to be alone for a moment…and I know he is not the type that likes to but he seriously needs to. Its like he has completely rebelled from himself….I mean if his mom was alive…he would have never come to the award show with one hand a bottle of Henny and another a snake. That is way past his character and I was disappointed alone when I saw how he arrived to the show before he even spoke. But thats just my opinion. But regardless, I will always love Kanye. I cannot ignore the inspiration that I recieved from his artistry!
I wish the best for him and thank you ConcreteLoop for stating your piece about Kanye. He truly is a strong supporter of this blog! And thanks for having Kid Cudi’s album as wallpaper! He needs that exposure bad. I feel bad for him since he can’t even promote his album on radio without people asking him about his thoughts on Kanye,smh.

That Amber Rose is good for nothing either. Kayne get a clue. That woman does not care about you! She love your money and the attention. If that was my man and I loved him, I would’ve never let him leave the house drinking and carrying that bottle of Henny. But she don’t give a damn. She right there co-signing. I for one would not have stepped out with him acting like that period.

Kanye acts like a spoiled, egomaniac.
Instead of acting like a child, Kanye needs to grow up, put his ego in check, and start acting like an ADULT !

I wanna wish Kayne the best again it’s over with now. What I really want to say is that shish was funny as hell I laughed all day yesterday and I am still laughing. Anyway all is well.

Wow that was the most sincere thing I have ever witnessed before. Kanye is still trying to block out the pain from the loss of his mother. I am in full support of him taking a break and spending some time praying and getting his life right!

Wow everyone that is trying to throw Kanye under the bus needs to check themselves. As previously stated Kanye only said what alot of people were thinking. Plus I thought that we are supposed to be FORGIVING! Until you have walked in someones shoes that has lived the life as Kanye has then you have NO room to judge!

Yes, what Kanye did WAS wrong….but I still think it was dirty for Jay Leno to bring up Kanye’s Mom…..That was just wrong. Kanye apologized. Why bring up his Mom, who just died? That was totally not called for.

Ditto on the PR stunt that was set up by the evil ass CARTER clan!!!!! Jay Z put home boy up to the task by wispering in his ear and he fell for it! Bey is just a dumb ass puppet manequin barbie doll who is dick whipped by master Jay Z who really thinks he can run the whole industry! He is using Kanye as his puppet….just like everyone else because he wants to control everything and Kanye is so screwed up by the loss of his mom he can’t see it…

Why the hell did Jay Leno bring “Kanye’s mom” into this very subject? He probably knew that everybody would be watching this video now. He wanted to make him cry or what? =) It’s an idiotic way to question Kanye’s behaviour.

Kanye needs to stop. HELLO he was DRUNK. He was taking shots strong from the henney bottle he was holding. Why are people overlooking this? He should just stop drinking and stop blaming constant touring and bulls*** for what he did. Especially when he’s about to embark on another tour in like a month.

I totally agree with you.. You can see the little boy in him.. I believe he didn’t mean to hurt Taylor.. He hasn’t taken any time off the grief.. I can’t even think how painful it is to lose a parent.. Dang!

‘People are treating him worse than R. Kelly, Janet Jackson (Nipple) and Chris Brown combined’ LMAO… This is so true…
By the way Rihanna looked great during her performance, but she sangs horribly. Oh well, she has more money than me, more clothes than I do and probably more niggas, so at this point it doesn’t even matter what I think.

Yes, I also think that Henny bottle, and its being allowed on the red carpet/TV screens (when have we ever seen that?) was part of this shenanigan. Makes him look even more “black” in their eyes, makes him look troubled, and gives a reason for his behaviour. MTV had to be in on this. The audience for this crap is kids. They okay’d the Henny bottle for reasons.
