I heard about Kanye's @$$hat behavior and was relieved that I didn't see it. But of course, I couldn't get away from it on World News Now and various morning radio shows.
It was inexcusable to do that to anyone, but doing it to a 19 year old girl? Dude has lost his mind, especially since he behaved so passionately for a video that, compared to MJ, The Beastie Boys, Aerosmith, and numerous other previous VMAs winners, really wasn't much. Interesting, especially when the pre-show rewarded The Beastie Boys' Sabotage an honorary VMA, since it didn't get the Moonman back in the 90s. Sometimes, undeserving videos win, but life does march on. It's not the 2000 presidential election, son.
Plus, isn't it ironic that Kanye objected to a country-western crossover artist winning this award when MJ, an R & B artist, opened the doors and windows for every non-rock music act to be seen on MTV?
No thought. No mind. All mouth.
And again, it's a reminder that talent and professionalism are taking a backseat to loud-mouthed theatrics.
I am truly depressed.
