Police say they have arrested Kanye West at Los Angeles International Airport for being a doche ;)



The real report:

    Kanye Sucks.

    There, now that that is out of my system....


    That is what you get for being famous. he has done everything he can in the past couple years to get more popular,richer, and suddenly gets angry that somebody watns a picture of him? doesn't add up in my mind. maybe there is more to the story.
    It's all happening....

    for once i agree with this clown. i wouldnt want people taking pictures of me in an airport. he does still have the right to a personal life even if he is on mtv. im sure if a certain someone we all listen to did this in 94 we'd all be saying how the photographer had no right being there bugging him. west is a moron, but i think more celebrities need to start smashing these peoples cameras.

    none of us has any idea what it's like to be photographed and followed every moment of their lives. no privacy, whatsoever. it's a surreal existence i could never imagine. to some extent, it's the price of fame and success in the arts world anymore, but that doesn't mean someone is a douchebag for letting the pressure overwhelm them at some point. i like kanye, but there are plenty of reasons to think he's a dick. this isn't one of them.
    and like that... he's gone.

    i would have smashed the camera too.

    fuck the papparazzi. i hope celebs start running them over.

    How f'ing stupid to cause a f'ing ruckus in an f'ing airport, crawling with f'ing Feds just looking for some stupid f's like these. Real tough Kanye, real impressive.
    And I'm not living this life without you, I'm selfish and clear
    And you're not leaving here without me, I don't wanna be without
    My best... friend. Wake up, to see you could have it all

    The thing happened before 8am!! So just imagine, you have to get up around 6am to get to the f#&%ing airport. You're not really awake yet and already some paparazzi is sticking his lense in your face! I dunno but I'm not always in a great mood before 8am, especially when you didn't have enough sleep and you're maybe not feeling well! Celebrities also have bad days: they're human just like us!

    For all the things to hate Kanye West for...I'm with him on this one, if I were a "celebrity" I'd have punched more than my fair share of these scumbags.

    The airport's a public place. It's not like those guys were hiding in his bushes outside of his bedroom window. Besides, normally that guy's a publicity whore so what changed that day to make him hate it? He's a major douche bag.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    Everyone here would have do the same. You can't say that 'they should have known before they got famous' until you actually go through it.

    sorry, but you cant just take someone elses property and smash it because you dont like what they're doing. He is a fucking asshole. Yes, the paparazzi suck, but what he did was majorly wrong.
    I dont like my neighbors loud motorcycle, but I dont go over there and smash it with a bat like I want to.
