[kelmac07]

Although Beyonce should have won...Kanye West is a DOUCHE BAG for that childish act.

[replicant_argent]

no surprises, Doug.

[Emjaysmash]

Wow, just wow.

[DoctorBJ]

Not like this is the first douchy thing he's done. The word needs less douch-baggery-ness.

[Slavac]

He is the captain of the good ship Douchebag.

He totally digs fishsticks....

complete a$$hat.

[The Professor]

Wow.

Okay ... I *like* Kanye's music. I think he has a good ear and does some amazing things in the studio (as a producer, too). That said...


There is no effing excuse for such poor behavior. Beyonce may have the best video of all time; but that doesn't give you the right to storm the stage and take away from someone else's victory. B*tch about it to the cameras afterward. Write a song about it. But don't be a jackass and ruin someone else's night on what should be a special occasion.

Plus ... come on ... everyone knows awards shows are rigged. ;)

[Beagleone]

Friend of mine works for MTV and was twittering about this whole blow up. I haven't seen the VMAs much less watch MTV anymore, but I might have to catch the replay.

[AD720]

I agree with the prof, he is a talented dude and makes great pop songs.

No one ever accused him of being humble but this is crossing the line. He is really letting the fame and all the accolades go to his head. I have no idea who the girl is but I feel bad for her.

[zonedar]

Well, Beyonce has more class in her finger nail...

[GoodFella]

this is one Pri** that get my blood boiling.

[JohnnyKay5]

I love Taylor Swift! You go girl!

[icehog3]

Kanye has pulled this kind of thing before, so it should be no suprise. Calling him a douchebag is an insult to douchebags. ;)

He is the captain of the good ship Douchebag.

Is he the same one who said "George Bush hates black people." or was that someone other douche bag?

[Whee]

Is he the same one who said "George Bush hates black people." or was that someone other douche bag?

One and the same.

[yachties23]

same guy, but he is the voice of his generation and a genius, so he will more than likely get a pass on this... However for the utterly stupid sunglasses he always wears... he gets no pass...

[Doom]

Although Beyonce should have won...Kanye West is a DOUCHE BAG for that childish act.

Agreed.
Why must you make us hate you Kanye?
He really is the sickest beat maker though.

[Darrell]

What a classless asshole.

[drevim]

Sadly, unlike in sports, there is no fine for being a complete ass in music.

I've never bought any of his music, nor do I intend to, but hurting his sales and not going to his shows are the only things that speak. I'm sure most of the people that support him, won't view this as an issue.

[hostile]

i enjoy his music but that makes me mad, Taylor Swift is awsome. And in other news just hours after that happend i found out a girl i know from high school is touring with taylor swift so we are gettin free tickets with vip access and meeting taylor swift and staying at the hotel with them

[Aldebaran]

What happened to the classier days of ruining someone elses award?

"Cause I figured that Wu-Tang was gonna win. I don't know how you all see it, but when it comes to the children, Wu-Tang is for the children"

Even though it is a dick move it is the MTV awards. They haven't really had anything to do with music in years.

[icehog3]

He is the voice of his generation? Wow....just wow.

[Flat4boxer]

What a classless maroon.

[kenstogie]

I saw the clip and was thinking "wow he's a total jerk" then I saw Beyonce's dress and completely forgot about it. That's a good looking girl.

Yea he should have a permanant ass hat. Something tells me it was staged...

[Dunkel]

Turn abouts fair play, so... Kanye West hates white people! :tf

[DougBushBC]

Well, Beyonce has more class in her finger nail...

And this was blatantly obvious when she showed how MORTIFIED she was at his actions.

[jonharky]

Agreed.

No he isnt take his one song for instance taken form daft punk better,faster,harder, stronger

[yachties23]

He is the voice of his generation? Wow....just wow.

Watch that south park clip I linked Tom. Trey and Matt basically demolish him for 30 minutes... its amazing...

[elderboy02]

What a classless asshole.

^This

I am glad Beyonce gave Taylor her moment that numb nuts stole from her.

ETA: I didn't watch it live. I saw a replay. I never watch MTV b/c it is all crap anymore.

She could use a little help in the boobage department, but she is definitely a GORGEOUS girl.

[SeanGAR]

Never heard of him before ... but I hope one day they help him and find a cure for asshole.

[macpappy]

Never heard of him before ... but I hope one day they help him and find a cure for asshole.

There is a cure! Wait. No there's an institution for assholes. It's called congress.

Other than that, I don't think Beyonce needs any help from whatshisname or in the boob department.

[shvictor]

It seems to me he is racist..IMO

[kenstogie]

For me it's not so much size as shape, but I like them all.

[Col. Kurtz]

Why is this jerk still relevant?

[replicant_argent]

Why is this jerk still relevant?

Because, in the diverse world we live in, there is no accounting for taste.

[cbsmokin]

Total Di*k Head. Next time there is an award show they should say they are giving him some kind of special award and then not do it.

[Kreth]

:tpd: I thought his 15 minutes were up after that weak-ass "performance" on SNL last year.

I thought his 15 minutes were up after that weak-ass "performance" on SNL last year.

oh man, that was hard to watch. of course, I recorded it so my friends and I could go back and re-watch it several times later. :D I don't understand why people think because they can rhyme it means they can sing too.

also, I'd like to present the following picture as further evidence of Kanye's douchebaggery:

[Cigary]

This clown needs a personality enema.

[chippewastud79]

I think Pink summed it up pretty well.

Pink tweeted about her annoyance with Kanye. "Kanye West is the biggest piece of sh-t on earth. Quote me," she wrote. "My heart goes out to Taylor Swift. She is a sweet and talented girl, and deserved her moment. She should know we all love her."

[ahc4353]

I think Pink summed it up pretty well.



:tpd::tpd:

What a f'in tool this guy is.

I wish she would have kicked him in the nuts.

[gettysburgfreak]

seems to me it was staged as well, MTV is weird like that. Did you guys see Beyonces outfit when she performed?

[JJG]

I wouldn't put it past MTV to stage something like this. but if so, I can't understand, why Kanye or anyone else would agree to be the "villain". He's done this before though. I believe it was MTV Europe and he crashed the stage when someone else won best video.

I have this theory that he's actually just mildly retarded. I mean, when I see him in interviews or when he made that "bush doesn't care about black people" comment, he always looks and sounds like a little kid. He has this deer-in-the headlights childlike expression. Maybe he's not a bad guy. Maybe he just has no concept of what constitutes socially acceptable behavior.

[ahc4353]

I don't know about staged. I would think the award winner would have to be in on it as well and that poor girl looked so sad and confused.

I stick by my original post, the guy's a tool.

[Jbailey]

This is crazy, never heard of this until now.

Not a fan of his music or think he's that talented, just my opinion. Plus I'm surprised that they still do the whole music award shows since they don't play music anymore.

[gettysburgfreak]

MTV blows, I concluded that awhile back but after seeing the events of last night and all the crappy ass music that was up for awards it officially sealed the deal. Anyone else think Lady Gaga is completely insane and a freak of nature? And how the heck did her song Poker Face actually get recorded? Its the worst song I have ever heard.

[SchizoFilly]

I remember a few years ago when Limp Bizkit won an award that Rage Against the Machine was nominated for and one of the guys went on stage and climbed up one of the props. He got arrested for it. Why wasn't this sh!t head given the same treatment?

[OLS]

Not being into the whole hip hop "culture", I had no idea who this numbnut was.
Even on SNL when he embarassed an entire race, I thought who is this
Ahole? But by last night, at least, I knew WHO HE WAS. When I read this this morning,
I was pretty disappointed for the poor kid Taylor. I was going to log onto his goofball
web page to call him a few names, among which I am sure was going to be douchebag,
but I did not want to give him the web traffic. Same as that douche-bag who heckled
the president. I am a conservative, but I would never think to applaud this worm with a
attaboy or a contribution or even a web click to his page to call him a douche-bag.
The news commentators say it best. This is NOT the UK or Japan or wherever.
This is the US! And to see him on Meet the Press saying that he did not plan to do it.
He knew exactly where in the speech it was going to fall and he waited like some scumbag
for his 15 secs of fame. He doesn't get 15 mins. He should be stripped on the house
floor and given 30 lashes. I disagree with black comentators and activists who say it was all
about Obama's race. But I do think that some Aholes in congress think he shouldn't REALLY be
conferred with all due respect because he is black. So it must be OK to heckle him, right.
WRONG. The man is the President of the United States, like it or not.

And Kanye?? Just a perfect example of a man who feels like he is entitled to
more than his share of rights because of the history of his people in America.
Sorry Kanye. None of your living family were slaves, and none of their parents
were likely slaves either. You are now JUST an American. Start behaving like one, you jizz.

[dannysguitar]

I thought this sketch was pretty funny

[BlackDog]

Well, Beyonce has more class in her finger nail...
Oh, I thought that she was just a little careless with the toilet paper. Which is about as much as I think of Kayne West.

[OLS]

And I should apologize for the "angry white man" routine from me above.
It is hard for the average reader to tell if I am a racist or just the opposite
by reading my rant. Like most Americans, black and white and hispanic and other, yes, I am a racist, lol. I keed.

[Cigarbud]

What a turd, my only question is why do they keep inviting this whining baby back every year. Maybe they get a certain percentage of people who just tune in to see what 200 pound 6 year old looks like.

[floydpink]

Ahh, I'm too old, but feel it's a sad testimony to the leaders of tomorrow that this crotch grabbing no talent prick even gets into one of these events

[ahc4353]

So Pete, how do you really feel? :hm

As he gave the mic back, Tayler should have told him to say hi to his mom for her.....too soon?

[kelmac07]

And she performs directly after this?? When she was seen crying hysterically...just confirms these performances are all recorded and lip synched. :td for the A$$hatting of Mr West!!

[poker]

I cant say what I really feel about him here. 100% Dumas

[NCRadioMan]

I would give anything to be in a closed room and have 5 Minutes Alone, with him. If he is talented, I am the Pope. :rolleyes:

A good blast from the past, Scott. I believe I wore that cassette out back in the 80's while screaming along to it.
er.... /threadjack?

I wasn't aware of his passing. The man had talent, and an interesting writing and songwriting style.

[rrplasencia]

this is from a ny times article earlier this year, maybe this is why she won, and why captain fish sticks hates white peeps. that's right, i've got taylor on my ipod!

"This week Taylor Swift, the poised 19-year-old country star, crossed an increasingly rare milestone on the pop charts as her latest release, “Fearless,” outsold every other album in the United States for the eighth time.

Since 2000 only five other albums have spent eight or more weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard chart: ’N Sync’s “No Strings Attached,” Eminem’s “Marshall Mathers LP” and the Beatles’ “1,” all from 2000, stayed on top for eight weeks, as did Creed’s “Weathered” in 2001. Usher’s “Confessions” remained there for nine in 2004.

Music industry experts say that Ms. Swift’s success is the result of a combination of quality material, smart marketing and luck. “Fearless” was released in November and went immediately to No. 1, then gave up the top spot in successive weeks to Beyoncé, Kanye West and Britney Spears. But Ms. Swift has owned every week since mid-December, outlasting her competitors not only during the holiday shopping season but also through the doldrums of January, when sales drop to their lowest point all year."

Kanye deserves a threadjack when there's music like this to be had. He and Taylor Swift and Beyonce don't even get footnote status in the music biz in my book.

LOL, you guys need to watch Southpark more.

A few weeks back, they trashed him for an entire episode. That was one of his quotes about himself in the episode. I won't get to the short and long of it, but its def worth the watch.

[Starscream]

seems to me it was staged as well, MTV is weird like that. Did you guys see Beyonces outfit when she performed?

I did wonder how he got access to the microphone so quickly. And why didn't they cut the mic off? :hm


At least Beyonce was a class act to Taylor Swift. Nice job to attempt to make things right.

[shaggy]

this was all a work.....if u read ur posts there is all the proof right there, mic not shut off, him having access to the stage at just the right time.... taylor prolly wasnt privy to it so the shock would be genuine.
when all is said and done, kayne adds to his bad boy image, taylor gets pity for being treated as she was, and beyonce gets kudos for bringing taylor back out.
it all comes down to putting on a show to get attention. another example was kayne drinking from a henesy bottle on the red carpet. if it was true henesy then MTV would be facing heavy fines....it actually may have been a prelude to the performance on stage.
kayne is just another drop in the bucket of pop music....they come and go and his days are numbered

[Scothew]

and his days are numbered

We can only hope!

[Chris.]

God, i hate Kanye West. He is a piece of **** attention whore! Every time I see that asshole on tv, he is saying or doing something stupid that offends everyone, and yet people still buy his shitty music! I really hope he is sterile.:fl:gn

:tpd: On everything above except maybe that wink at the end (they are rigged) ;)
When his first (major?) studio album came out I remember thinking, he seems like a good guy and his music is good. Oh well, guess it was too good to be true or last. :rolleyes:

[ade06]

While I absolutely feel that West's actions were idiotic, what bothers me is the national outcry and media frenzy this entertainer is receiving for… well being entertaining. On the flip side of this, we have a Congressman who completely disrespects the office of the President with his lack of deference, by interrupting our President's recent Joint Sessions speech, with a false accusation (even if the accusation were true, the outburst was a blatant lack of respect to our Nation's highest office from someone who should be held to a higher standard; he is a CONGRESSMAN). Without trying to turn this tread into a political discussion, it seems that this Country is getting too bent out of shape over an entertainer's dumb actions.
