Kanye West is a total.....

[Tink&SquirtsMom]

Sorry....I don't believe the "any publicity is good publicity."

Nor do I... but clearly he does.

And what I said stands... he got exactly what he wanted. Now the reports are saying Jay may interview him as well instead of just letting him rap. So he not only still gets to perform he may get MORE airtime than he would have otherwise gotten... again he got what he wanted. The louder you complain, the more names you call him, the more it feeds him. Just ignore the man.

\ Just ignore the man.

Leno's on my "IGNORE(ant) list too!!!

Sorry....I don't believe the "any publicity is good publicity." Kanye is a classless clown.





Not everyone. "This is "just" Kanye".....please!!! I hope decent people get a clue. This IS Kanye!!! He's a tasteless creep. I'm glad that many of his peers see him as such AND are speaking out.

I think you missed the point of my post.

it DOSN'T matter what you or I, or anyone on this thread posts or how many messages are sent to Jay Leno, etc. etc. etc.

like some other posters have pointed out. HE HAS ALREADY WON,

he achieved what he set out to do. whether it was planned, with Beyonce in the know and acting suprised, or a spur of the moment thing. He has done it so many times in the past it is almost his signature move.

He is getting the notice he wanted in the media...HE IS GETTING REWARDED for his bad behaviour.

he may be a low life for doing that, but he is a well known low life just the same.

and all those others in the business will seem to forget about it, especially when he makes some major bucks on his next release.

Absolutely me too - I was looking forward to his new show but I refuse to watch it tonight or any night if Kanye is allowed to appear at all , performing or interview.

Personally, I think he was right - Beyoncee (forgive me if I spell it wrong) had a much better song/video in my mind. However, what a ********** for doing that!!!! I'd be so upset if I were Beyoncee! I feel badly for both women involved.

I'm not a fan of kayne, Beyonce or Swift...but I feel sorry for Swift and Beyonce as it must have been so embarrassing for Beyonce for him to do that and Swift, well what he did was like saying "your worthless you don't deserve this". I've never agreed with music awards because artists like Kayne do very little work (if I remember correctly he samples alot of his music, but this could be another artist) get praise for what they do while other artists are doing so much for no attention (a great example is Emilie Autumn - She's writing/written a huge book for her fans, planning and arranging her touring schedules, making all the clothing for her shows (and theres like 4-5 women and they all have about 3 costume changes), The props for her show, Photoshoots, Making her own music video, bookreadings, recording, working on the re-release of her album....while Kayne west gets everything done for him...).

And what I said stands... he got exactly what he wanted. Now the reports are saying Jay may interview him as well instead of just letting him rap. So he not only still gets to perform he may get MORE airtime than he would have otherwise gotten... again he got what he wanted. The louder you complain, the more names you call him, the more it feeds him.

He is like quite a few, a parasite troll of the music scene...he knows controversial things like this will help get him known....just like I'm sure the people working on the show realise with him on more people will watch it and more money will be made....as sadly thats what the (popular) music and media industry is about....

 

[Mermaid02]

Kanye wants to be the center of attention at all times.... that was about HIM not Beyonce or Taylor.... "look at me! look at me! look at me!" He's disturbed.

Kanye West is..........Carlton Banks.

LOS ANGELES – Kanye West is getting his Hugh Grant moment on Jay Leno's new show.

West was set to perform with Rihanna and Jay-Z on Monday night's debut of "The Jay Leno Show" but wasn't originally scheduled to chat with the host.

But after West drew boos at the MTV Video Music Awards for ruining Taylor Swift's acceptance speech, NBC said the rapper will talk with Leno. The network announcement came less than an hour before the show's taping Monday. It airs at 10 p.m. EDT.

Sitting down with Leno gives West the chance to apologize again for ruining Swift's moment at the MTV Video Music Awards — just as Grant got to make amends in a 1995 visit to Leno's "Tonight Show" after the actor was arrested with a prostitute.

West, who interrupted Swift as she accepted the best female video award for "You Belong With Me" to argue that Beyonce's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" was more deserving, has apologized on his blog.

However the visit pans out for West, Leno looks like a winner. His daily prime-time comedy show already was the most buzzed-about fall debut — and with West, it's likely to draw even more curious viewers.

Not pulled... Performing AND being interviewed on Leno.

Thanks for the info...at least now I won't keep wasting my time hoping Leno will do the right thing. It's alllllll about the ratings, with Kanye and Leno.

Well I won't be watching, and never will watch that show.

...jerk is as strong as I think I can go on the Dis. Whether or not it was racially motivated has no bearing at all to me. It was classless and rude. I was looking forward to Jay Leno's show, but won't be watching it if he's still a guest. I don't invite people like that into my home.

Well said!

 

[CaliforniaDreamin]

Well I won't be watching, and never will watch that show.

SAME HERE!!!
I am beyond mad. I shouldn't get so wrapped up, but the look of utter shock on Taylors face when she won and then having that joy stolen by an egomaniacal thug. I am outraged Jay Leno would have this idiot on. I hope his show fails miserably.

Kirstie Alley, who once struggled with drug addiction, and has been criticized in the press over her weight, offered some support for the superstar rapper, Kanye West.

“OF COURSE he overstepped the line … but I don’t believe anything is irreparable … people need to be allowed to make amends. HUGE AMENDS,” Alley wrote on her Twitter page on Monday.


Oh bother...........

 

[Mad4Mickey]

is a low class bum who picks on girls . I wonder why he acts like this it drives me nuts . His Mom is rolling in her early grave : (

 

[TLSnell1981]

I think you missed the point of my post.
.

Nope....I know what you meant. I just disagree, .... I believe at some point the negative publicity will backfire.

Here's hoping the results he desired..... aren't all that he hoped for.

Just say NO TO KW and JL.

 

[JLKennedy]

See, Taylor must've been brought up right, bc if it were me accepting and he pulled that [edited] on me, I'd take the mic back and remind him..publicly, that he wasn't asked to vote so clearly, his opinion doesn't matter.

Well I know now I definately won't be watching now or ever. I hope that this decision really bites NBC and the Leno show - if they are going to promote this idiot I hope that their ratings are terrible tonight.

 

[NEVERENOUGHWDW]

He is a DISGRACE!

 

[S. C.]

He is a DISGRACE!

I agree!

 

[Ilike2Lurk]

What do you mean? Is there a problem with saying that what Kanye West did is wrong?

Apparently only so many people are allowed to complete the sentence/give an opinion

Now it is considered a mob
