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.

Guilty or not guilty? Who the fuck cares?

Wesley Snipes is in central Florida to learn his punishment for three misdemeanor tax convictions. A jury found the 45-year-old action star guilty of willfully failing to file taxes for three years, in which the government said he owed $2.7 million. Snipes was acquitted in February of three identical counts and two felony charges of tax fraud and conspiracy. Still, prosecutors are pressing the judge for the maximum sentence of three years in prison. They say Snipes is a "notorious" offender who dogged the IRS for years. Snipes' attorneys say he deserves only probation for the misdemeanors. On Wednesday, they submitted three dozen letters from friends attesting to his character. Those coming to Snipes' aid included Denzel Washington and Woody Harrelson.



WP: I don't care if he knew about it or didn't know about it. But here's a thought: why doesn't he cough up the fucking money like the rest of us taxpayers?! Douchebag.
