Quite true. His facial expression when Kanye blurted out, "George Bush hates black people!" was simply priceless...

It turned into a race war because its America. Anytime a black someone does something to someone white and vice versa, regardless of the circumstances, it turns into a race war on popular forums and websites like youtube. This is basically what I was talking about earlier. This country has some serious social issues that are just eating away at it under the surface.
With all that said though, Kanye is still a friggin idiot. Most famous black celebrities have already come forth exclaiming their shock and disgust at this idiots lack of class and constant craving for attention. This guy needs to get gone fast.

Why's it turned into a race issue? I thought it was just Kanye being an idiot as he occasionally does.

Well now I saw it on youtube and I can say Kanye Kinte is taking a beating on it. It's erupted into a full on race riot on you tube. Good for this black racist. Can't take that a white gal won over a black gal. Sore losers like to show their true colors.

Kanye West? Isn't that the same idiot that got on national television and said that the Government's slow response to Katrina was "racist"? This idiot is the epitomy of racist. West you can go where you belong: down a toilet. It doesn't matter what you think is better, you are supposed to be there and be dignified and treat your peers with respect. You only cemented the idea that you deserve absolutely none.

And we have a winner! It would appear that the answer to this riddle is cognac - a bottle's worth... On a side note, do you think Kanye still enjoys his fishsticks, or is it more likely he's banned them from his refrigerator?

Pink's Twitter message after the show said it perfectly:
"Kanye West is the biggest piece of shit on earth. Quote me. 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. Beyonce is a classy lady. I feel for her, too. It's not her fault at all, and her and Taylor did their thing. And douche bag got kicked out."

God. Was that really necessary Kanye? Seriously? Not only did you behave like a total a-hole, but you have also given the closet racists another thing to rave about on their forums. What a way to help your people Kanye. Bravo....Chump!!

Kanye West was tacky tacky tacky never cared for poor losers. It's cool that Beyonce gave Swift her moment that was star power.

I didn't know they still played videos on MTV. I thought it was all reality shows these days.
USNinJapan,
You have to admit however, Mike Meyer's reaction was far funnier than his last 2 movies, so there is that.

Good news !!!!

Hooray! I'm for the other tean! Kanye rocks on, who cares about some skinny little country chick?
Triumvere
He was. CNN says he was "escorted from the building" afterward.
skipthesong
Kanye was all real. What a jerk. Kudos to Beyonce for showing some class by giving Swift her deserving moment at the end." Yeah, that was classy.
USNinJapan2
First Mike Meyers and now poor little Taylor Swift. Kanye, get a clue, get a life, for godsake get something...

memo to kanye: if you're doing drugs, stop...if you're not, start

MTV were quick to announce that this wasn't a prank. Remember last year with Eminem walking out when Bruno landed on him? Kanye was all real. What a jerk. Kudos to Beyonce for showing some class by giving Swift her deserving moment at the end. Why did they let him bring his own booze to the event?

Obama's Culture Czar will inform Kanye that he acted stupidly.You wait and see.
Mark_McCracken
Perhaps Kanye West's publicist could show him the location of the shift key.

The first time I heard of this tool was on Southpark. That was all the information I needed to know.

A fishstick-lover.

I barely knew about Kanye West. But apparantly he's a total freak.
Midnightpromise
Who is Kanye West?
smithinjapan
Why on earth wasn't the guy kicked out? Anyone else would have been shown the door, and probably not invited in the first place if their past reputation were the same as his. I hope they don't invite him to future events.... but oh yeah, they are all driven by ratings, so he probably will.
stirfry
thats 2 shows in a row...whats the matter with this a-hole ? obviously jealous that someone else is getting the spotlight
WayneRooney10
Makes me realise how much I miss Michael.
Stay clear, Kanye, or I'll split you in half.

Every genre needs at moronic blowhard, and the music industry has Kanye. He`s been an idiot before, but this time he just might have done some damage. Kudos to Beyonce for showing class. Someone needed to...
Altria
Kanye West should be put in the stocks and flogged.
fairyprince
What a tool
skipthesong
I've never seen what so special about Kayne West anyway. He's a chump. < :-)" psst, Aday, guess what, we've found some common ground. I don't think I've liked one thing he's done, at least not to the point of spending money on him. I haven't bought anything from Swift either.

People dont care about kanye west

This guy's a living joke. It makes the South Park Gay Fish episode even funnier though.

What a boor Kanye West is. And kudos for Beyonce for letting Taylor Swift come back on stage.
