Is it just me or does it seem that Kanye is working the infamy angle to gain notoriety? Admittedly not funny but much of Andy's public displays of misanthropy were decidedly not funny. If Kanye starts wrestling women or some such other strange transgender (Back during Andy's time it didn't have anything to do with surgery) thing, then my comparison will be more correct.

Eilonnwy,

I watched the video you posted and that is some grade A asshatery.

HHAHAhaaha, Kanye certainly is the new "HOT" thing this week... and maybe for the month. Acting an ass on the VMA to Taylor, getting called a Jackass by the President! I'm not sure if he's trying to work his angle a bit. He weeped like a little bitch on multiple videos about the incident. Infamous yes, notorious also yes... for being an asshole.

But from my POV, utter gold! This is just hilarious to me, but it'll all turn out to be remembered faintly like certain tards on American Idol, or any other mistakes these famous turds make.

Kanye was heavily drinking before the VMAs, if that gives any light to the situation

Ahh, well then it probably wasn't premeditated and Kanye is just a dooche! I always want there to be more to the story when something this outrageous happens but I guess people do dumb shit for no reason all the time around me so why would I expect musicians to be any different.

I really don't think that was premeditated... that was a little too assholish to be planned by all of them. ;\\
