Kanye West… big winner, bigger loser…

Kanye West. Wow… talk about a self-indulgent egomaniac!!

Seriously, Kanye, ever heard of humility? Graciousness? Being a “good sport”? Dignity? Self-Respect?

For those of you who don’t know what I am talking about… he won the award for best hip hop artist, lost the award for best video… and then jumped on the stage to make a huge fuss as the winners were receiving their award!!

Apparently, he said something to the affect of, “(Bleep) dis! Mine cost a million dollars, Pamela Anderson was in it, I was jumping across canyons and (bleep)! If I don’t win, the awards show loses credibility. Nothing against you (referring to Justice and Simian), but hell man.”

Then later when talking to the press, he said somethings to the effect of…

“I haven’t seen it (referring to the Justice and Simian video). Possibly it could have been quite good but no way better than ‘Touch The Sky.’

“That is complete (bleep), I paid a million. Obviously it’s not all about the money, but the response it got transcended everything, it really made great TV.

“It took a month to film; I stood on a mountain; I flew a heliocopter over Vegas. I did it to be the king of all videos and I wanted to walk home with that award.”

“That was some spread the love (bleep). ‘Oh everyone should have an award.’ Please press people, print ‘Kanye says (bleep) that!’”

So, Kanye, ask and you shall receive.

I think when he sees the Justice and Simian video he is going to be like… “WHAT?? That beat me??”

Of course, if I had been voting for best video… I would have picked “OK Go’s Here it Goes Again”. Without question.. best video… ever.

And it cost WAY less than a million dollars.
