Clueless as well as classless.

He took something away from Beyonce and Taylor Swift both, didn't he.

This kind of behavior is one reason why I hate drunks.

Poor Taylor!!

Shame on that asshole for stealing that sweet little girls moment!



DarkSteven -> RE: Classless - Kanye West (9/14/2009 6:51:57 AM)

To be honest, I haven't thought much of him sober either.

I hope this forces him to straighten up.



hlen5 -> RE: Classless - Kanye West (9/14/2009 7:00:16 AM)

  I hope this curtails any invitations for West in the forseeable future.

If you read the whole article, Jay-Z and Alicia Keys had an uninvited "guest" during their set, too. What has happened to civility in this country? Idiot US representatives heckling the Pres., people climbing on-stage to get their face in the cameras, it's just nuts!!

And you fell for it.

Perhaps it's time to choose your media a little bit more carefully.

AP is reporting the same thing, kitten. There's video and everything.

Perhaps you should follow your own advice?

VMA chaos, as usual: Kanye upset, Jackson honored


NEW YORK (AP) -- Taylor Swift was relishing her unlikely win of best female video[image]http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/2.gif[/image] at the MTV Video Music Awards. The 19-year-old knew that the network doesn't exactly make a habit out of giving their moonman trophies to country music stars.

"I was standing on the stage and I was really excited because I had just won the award," Swift said after Sunday's show at Radio City Music Hall  "And then I was really excited because Kanye West was on the stage. And then I wasn't so excited anymore after that."

Taking the microphone, the rapper protested Swift's selection and announced that Beyonce, also nominated, should have won because her "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on it)" was "one of the best videos of all time."

As he had numerous times before, West made sure an awards show spotlight shone on him.


A stunned Swift staggered and didn't get to finish her acceptance speech. The crowd booed West, who shortly after was asked to leave the show and left the building.

It's surprising that you're getting all worked up over West's classless, but completely insignificant, action, and that you didn't utter a single peep in protest at Joe Wilson's classless, but completely troubling, heckling. Because in the end, both acted in very similar manners.



Sanity -> RE: Classless - Kanye West (9/14/2009 7:32:55 AM)


All worked up?

Hardly, perhaps you are projecting.

Joe Wilson is another matter, for another thread (in the political section).

What you're falling for here is Kanye West's pathetically obvious attempt at creating a storm of publicity around him. Now I know where you get your political priorities from: People magazine [8D] .



Sanity -> RE: Classless - Kanye West (9/14/2009 7:53:59 AM)


Yeah, whatever, kitten. Kanye's getting the exact publicity he deserves. [;)]



winterlight -> RE: Classless - Kanye West (9/14/2009 8:00:48 AM)

I find both persons clueless, classless and tasteless...

Kanye behavior seems to be an ongoing thing for him. Kudos to Taylor for being a good sport and behaving wonderfully for the circumstances.

Kudos also for Beyonce for not only showing class but being gracious above it all. There are many who are saying she was laughing at the beginning. I didn't see that at all. I saw shock and a woman that showed utter class for having Taylor come back and finish her speech....

I hope Kanye gets boycotted for his stupid, childish, moronic behavior...He still hasn't learned from his past stupidity..

As long as guys like Kanye and Vick exist... the "N word" will be alive and well in American culture as the only adjective that can possible describe their behaviour.  It's nice to know jerks exist in a variety of colors.

  They perpetuate a stereotype is all. I'd insist the NAACP kick their ass. 



LaTigresse -> RE: Classless - Kanye West (9/14/2009 11:28:39 AM)

Fortunately I was watching something a wee bit more intelligent than a television programme dedicated to stroking the, already over inflated, egos of over paid celebrities.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70Q6-Kp4rPE  This is my reply!   (ducks from mod 11, warning- racy, but funny)

(Just to let you know this guy has a radio show in LA, tho the program isnt quite as explicit.)     He thrives on upsetting people.   Radio Station on the FM.

Which stereotype would that be? Please, extrapolate: I'm fascinated.

Even his apology wasn't worth much. He is still justifying his actions because he feels he is correct in judging who gets what and when. Maybe now he will get a needle poke to his ego and not only by the public but by other in the music industry. I hope it hurts him where it counts.

Seeing Taylor's shocked face was enough to make me mad... I don't care who deserved the win... as that all balanced out later in the show anyway... West deserves what he is getting.

Kudo's to Beyonce... I may just have to go buy some of her music! I think I only have one song... so off to itunes for me...
