Nobody got upset at ODB for that. You know why? Because the lady he interrupted was a grown woman who just laughed it off because a damn grammy speech isn't a big deal since everyone knows they're bullshit. Taylor Swift on the other hand was a teenage drama queen that just stood there shocked like Kanye ripped apart her first born child or something. All the drama that ensued was Swifty's fault for thinking her "moment" was a huge deal that everyone had to care about.

If you interrupt someone else who just won an award to say they didn't deserve it, you're an asshole.

Not sure what TC is doing other than earning internet cool-points by pretending otherwise.

Honestly I feel a little bad for Kanye. Doesnt excuse him acting like a grown manbaby, but I cant imagine living everyday knowing I had a hand in my mothers death.

Id probably be a little fucked in the head after that as well.

So he wasn't an asshole when he, a grown ass man, had an emotional outburst during some teenage girl's moment, and you instead fault HER for taking it so seriously and being emotional about it, as someone her age is basically inevitably going to do?

This is like someone getting drunk and busting through the mall Christmas time and telling the mall Santa to go fuck himself and Santa's not real, and then saying he did nothing wrong it's the kids who should stop crying like little kids. >_>

This.

If you act like an asshole, you're an asshole.

It's that awful doublethink victims of domestic abuse have trained themselves in.

"He's not always like that"
"It's only because he's mad"

Uh huh...

Lol. I just had a similar argument yesterday. My friend said to his other friend "Why you trying to act considerate?". Being considerate is an act. If you do the act of being considerate than you're actually being considerate...right?

Are you trying to imply Swift doesn't have writers because that would be an argument you'd lose.

Not if you do it for entertainment.

I feel like the reasoning behind the act is more important than the act itself. Not everything is so black and white. People are complicated.

I don't think your motive behind acting like an asshole makes you any less of an asshole.

I mean, I respect the hell out of his through the wire song considering his jaw was wired shut when he recorded it or whatever... but I can't listen to it. I hate helium chipmunk voice.

You're just displaying ignorance right now. You either blindly hate rap so much to have this opinion or you blindly dislike Kanyes music. Dude made All Falls Down. And if conscious aint your thing he made Flashing Lights.

I think in some cases that is true, but not about acting like an a******.


I can certainly think of a situation where it applies to being an asshole, but I don't think it really fits Kanye. If you're actually playing a character ala professional wrestlers, some of the heels act like assholes in the ring or surrounding their character, but are not that way when they aren't playing the character.

The problem is, even if Kanye is "putting on an act", Kanye the person was invited to the awards, not Kanye the character. He's an asshole for being that character in an inappropriate environment.

I agree with you. However, I think I draw the line when the actor is outside of the stage or chooses to make the world his stage.

Kayne's character is never turned off, which brings us to the point that if you're always doing it, is it an act?


Exactly. I think people use "Kanye is playing a character" to truly mean "Kanye exhibits attention-seeking behavior", which isn't really the same thing. His character is truly him. Maybe it didn't used to be. Maybe he won't always be that way. But it certainly isn't something he's clearly turning on and off.

She was a teenager. Winning her first major award. It would have been a big moment for her.

If you don't care about people winning awards why are you watching an award show.
