Kanye West at Fashion Week on 9/8/08. Credit: Janet Mayer / PR Photos
Kanye West had plenty of time today to enthuse about the latest in art, fashion and music – or at least to post links and photos for the stuff, but so far all he’s only written two lines on his blog about the incident at LAX yesterday which resulted in his arrest:
“We back in the lab!!! I’m cool with the paparazzi. This guy wasn’t cool. I gotta work now… I’ll rant later!” [From Kanye West's official blog]
Kanye was videotaped throwing down a paparazzo’s camera at the airport on Thursday morning. His road manager approached another photographer videotaping the scene and then smashed his camera to the ground. The police came and arrested the two, and according to an eyewitness photographer’s account, shown on TMZ, Kanye lunged at him when he heard that he had video of the incident and had to be restrained by the cops.
Kanye and his road manager were arrested for felony vandalism and released on $20,000 bail. Kanye apparently had enough time to post 12 other brief entries on his blog today about art and fashion, but couldn’t be bothered to take the time to explain what happened yet. It’s more important for Kanye to cement his status as a trend setter than set the record straight on his biggest PR disaster. He probably has someone else posting that other stuff, though, and maybe he’ll soon explain what went down in his half-caps flow of consciousness style. The paparazzi can be incredibly invasive and obnoxious, but Kanye’s behavior has just shown that he can dish it out but he can’t take it.
Here’s the video of what happened:

oh bullcrap.
team kanye.
it was the tmz guys….have you ever watched their show? they are HORRIBLE.
though i am not often impressed by kanye’s public personality, i do love him as an artist. like it or not, he will go down as one of the greatest.
the photog said, ‘kanye attacked me….kanye west’.
wah wah wah.
he didn’t attack you. he took your camera from you and slammed it on the ground.
i thought it was pretty awesome.
he didn’t get arrested for assault – he was arrested for VANDALISM.
i’d pay the 20 thou & continue with my day myself.

… one of the greatest jerkwads, maybe.
Love his cute little outfit with the nonmatching shoes.

This guy is such a punk. He is disrespectful to everyone and doesn’t even have respect or compassion for his fans. As a former fan of his, I can honestly say he has driven me away from his music, his thoughts on ANY subject and his fashion critiques. I was among the many hundreds of people left standing all night waiting for him to show at Bonnaroo and he lost a lot of fans that night. He will not last long with this incredible ego no matter how good his music seems to be.
