MTV for me

A year after vowing never to perform on the MTV Video Music Awards again, hip-hop star Kanye West will close the show's 25th annual ceremony in Hollywood on Sunday. The outspoken rapper was upset by his treatment at last year's show, when his performance was relegated to a small stage in the Las Vegas venue. West also failed to win any prizes, and accused the music cable network of exploiting Britney Spears, who inadvertently stole the show by badly lip-synching and dancing to her new tune.

i.e., The arrogant fucker sucks, didn't win anything, and was upstaged by Britney Spears so he whined that he was "mistreated." What'd MTV do? Promise him he could take home a little spaceman this year? He should change his name to Kayne Whines.

Award Shows, the Writers Strike Continues...

Two of Hollywood's most glamorous events are now caught up in the entertainment industry's ugliest labor dispute in two decades. The Writers Guild of America, West, will not allow its members to write for the Golden Globes on Jan. 13 nor the Academy Awards on Feb. 24.


Wait a minute...are you telling me that someone actually writes that shit? And gets paid for it? Where did I go wrong?
