I agree, this has nothing to do with color or racism in my opinion.. Just a regular case of the Me-itis. Kanye has shownt time and time again that he has no filter whatsoever when it comes to censoring himself. What he did was so very stupid and rude and in the end, he makes himself look like a total ass. I begin to think that his little regular tirades are just a gimmic to gain attention to the entertainer Kanye and thus planned on his part, at least to some degree. I mean is he this stupid that he has not learned his lesson???? I start to doubt it.......
I personally could care two cents about Taylor Swift. I had no idea what she did, as a celebrity, until this little fiasco. I remember going to the store once and seeing her face on a few magazine covers. Well, on to my point...I like Kanye West. I like his music. He seems like he can be an asshole. I'm not defending Taylor Swift, because I still do not know what she does as a celebrity (songs she has sung?). What Kanye did was very rude, but still isn't going to stop me from illegally downloading his songs! Just my 2 cents...
Oh but it does have a racial issue within it. There are websites calling for for his murder, Im surprised nobody is mentioning that kanye is recieving death threats on that racist site website, when I first googled this incident they give you death threats made by people on racist site. Like I said Michael Richards was forgiven right away, in fact when the sienfeld DVD came out right after that, It did very well. Polls were held if they forgave him and most did, that forgiveness didnt take long at all. But people still dont forgive chris brown, kobe wasnt forgiven right away, Michael Vick still isnt forgiven, Isiah Washington took a longtime for him to be forgiven and he still not forgiven really..... But people like Dog the bounty hunter got forgiven pretty quickly, in fact his show got put back on the air, Miley Cirus when she made fun of asian people no one really cared enough for her to even have to say sorry, her apology was accepted as soon as she said, one apology thats all, Christian Bale's outburst was treated more of an joke than something mean and rude, Elton John, Sharon Stone, Joan Rivers... Mel Gibson is one of the few that actually had a hard time rebounding. Its like Jay-Z said people are blowing this out of proportion and the reason why is because america still has a hard time forgiving blacks more than whites.
Exactly, but I don't expect much from people on racist site, this is typical behavior of low lives. Fortunately, Taylor has a good head on her shoulders, I doubt she has a racist bone in her body and wouldn't want anything to do with the white trash types on racist site. I remember that duet she did with T Pain on the country music awards, they were saying that she was a race trader, its kinda ironic how they are coming to her defense now...mmmkay.lol Anywho, Taylor has forgiven Kanye and wants this incident put to bed. However, its unfortunate that the racist always highjack incidents like these, when there wasn't anything remotely racist about what Kanye did. It was tasteless, but not racist and both parties want to move the hell on and again, so should everyone else.
I'm sorry for my tardiness in responding to this topic, but Kanye sucks anyway. He is just another bad, idiot rapper who does this sort of thing. It's only the VMAs, which is clearly not as relevant as it used to be since today's mainstream music is horrible, but when someone (even Taylor Swift) is having his/her speech after winning an award, let him/her finish without interruptions. I would feel the same way if Eminem or Justin Timberlake would do that to say, Fantasia. It's really not that shocking to hear that someone like Kanye did this, rappers generally want all the attention. They all go after the publicity, regardless of how negative it is. For the record, I don't like him, Taylor Swift, and Beyonce', all of them are terrible performers.
Kanye West is not going to show up at the Hip-Hop Awards. Seems Beyonce is placing the nails on his coffin.
I know I am late to this party but I just have to add.... Beyonce showed some real class when she won here award, said thank you and then said let Taylor Swift have her moment and walked off. That is a class act.
Kanye West and Taylor Swift are gonna eventually hook-up over this situation. Just watch. You heard it here first.:smt045
I don't think so, my friend. How do you think they'll be couple? But I can smell Taylor Swift's first black boyfriend sooner or later. If no brothers fail to have her, then I will. Bet her pussy smell like honey. How tasty! :smt110
the only extraordinary around her is she makes good teeny bop music but personally i find her to be plain jane like the other girls i went to high school with . Lets see how she is when she can no longer make teeny miusic and if she can be seen as a grown woman . Personally she seems like the type of country girl who is real into her roots and family i dont see a black man in her future unless their her friend . Im sorry but this girl dont have the edge to stand with a brotha she is to plain.... but this is america anything can happen .
Agreed on BOTH counts, m8.. In closing, I just hafta say about Worst (Oop! We mean "West"..) Fuckin' insufferable, self-aggrandizing, aggravatin' asshole!:smt071 OpinionsCartoonStudios@Yahoo.Co.UK
