...but this act of immaturity can’t go un-blogged about. Really, Kanye? You’re 32 years old. Please act like it. You went onstage and humiliated and embarrassed a 19 year old girl in front of millions of viewers. Why? Just because you wanted people to hear your opinion. I’m sure Beyonce didn’t even agree with you.
Does he have a publicist? Well, if he did, he probably doesn’t anymore after tonight. Either they quit or died from a brain aneurism. Kanye “apologized” on his blog shortly after the fiasco. (The link may or may not be working right now considering the mass hoard of people wanting to see if Kanye sounds as dumb as they think he is. Speaking of which, the server probably died of a bandwidth aneurism). Kanye has the audacity to say sorry for what he did while still raising himself up onto a pedestal. If his idea of damage control is blogging the word “sorry” multiple times in caps lock then has a lot of to learn. He’s simply just thrown out a piece of litter after a tornado has struck a home. But hey, this is nothing new right? This will be in the headlines and people will be talking about him. Is this good bad press for him?
On the other end, this was a great opportunity for Beyonce. Not only did she get to win an award but she got a great moment to show a display of selflessness and give TS a chance to shine. Even if she doesn’t care about TS, she still looks like Mother Teresa. I think in the media world, being comparable to Mother Teresa is a positive. Let’s hope this wasn’t planned or something though! During Kanye’s little dittle, she did looked genuinely stunned so I believe her!
My jaw dropped and my heart sang for little TS. I hope she can get over this ordeal quick and easy! She has the support of everyone in the world right now so she should be fine. On a side note, I respect TS as a musician because her story is quite amazing. Being a kid who really didn’t have friends in high school to a famous pop/country star is a very cliché but it is very cool it happened for her. Can’t say I enjoy her music too much though. I know how to play one of her songs because when I was volunteering at a music program at an inner-city school last year, my kids made me teach them.
So, just to sum things up, Kanye should stop playing around with auto-tune and ought to tune up his act. (Nice one Mike). Beyonce is in a great place and good on her for sharing her moment with TS. (I also have a mini crush on her now). And, TS should go to the “Mike Myer’s Rehabilitation Centre for People Who’ve had to be Embarrassed By Kanye West on Live National Television”.
P.S.: I’ll try not to do anymore pop culture blogs anymore!

I agree with everything you said. Kanye is such a nasty piece of work, and I felt horrible for Taylor Swift after seeing that video. That's just humiliating, and what Beyonce did was so classy, and so good. But really unnecessary, I didn't watch the show, and don't intend on it, but I wonder why security didn't just grab Kanye and pull him offstage, allowing Swift to go on with her speech. Even allowing her to continue on after Kanye got his little rant in.

ReplyDeleteIt's interesting to think of what a godsend/nightmare Kanye would be for a Public Relations specialist; either he is very receptive to every idea possibly projected to get his egotistical image out into the public, or he's so headstrong (as this outburst tragically proves) that he continually messes up all good intentions by his PR reps or does the exact opposite of what they'd have him do.
