Hilarious, it is as if he is getting trolled.

[1exotic]

awkward.

[FN-2199]

Yo Matt Lauer, I hate to break it to you, but, I'm the greatest douchebag of all time :troll:

[neggo]

Lol, damn. Definitely seemed as though he was getting trolled...must have been uncomfortable as hell for Kanye.

[quasi]

I cannot stand this clank, hope he gets hit by a wayward bus. He is obvlious, when you fuckup just say I was wrong, I'm sorry and then don't do it again. Nobody is perfect but when you try and justify or downplay being a dochebag you prove that it wasn't just a lapse in judgement you really are a tool.

It's like that saying, It's better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid then open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Kanye land is a cool place for Kanye but dude really needs to visit reality some day.

Not even Kanye West can interrupt Kanye West!

Kanye Pulls Out of Today Show Performance

D.I.S.H.
That'll show 'em

Kanye West has cancelled a Today Show performance in the wake of an interview he claims was designed to misrepresent him.

Rolling Stone reports that Kanye has again taken to Twitter - where else? - to make the announcement.

To recap the series of events, Kanye was interviewed by Matt Lauer in a segment that aired this week. After the interview, but before the airing, the rapper posted a series of tweets claiming Lauer tried to 'force' his answers. He expressed anger that the show played footage of him jumping on stage with Taylor Swift at the 2009 MTV VMAs during the interview. He was also annoyed that they showed the recent footage of former U.S. president George W. Bush expressing his dismay with West calling him a racist back in 2005, in the wake of hurricane Katrina.

After the airing, Lauer announced that Kanye would be returning to perform on the show later in the month. Kanye says that ain't gonna happen.

'I'm not performing on The Today Show for obvious reasons,' he tweeted.

But he's glad the interview aired, as he went on to say, 'I'm so happy the world got to see just a small piece of 'the set up.''

Furthermore, Yeezy clearly assumes everyone at NBC reads his Twitter account: 'I blatantly said I'm not performing on a tweet and to everyone around me and the next day they still announced a performance. Do you guys see what I'm saying now? This is just a small slice of the day to day bulls**t that goes on that helps to precipitate the idea that I such an **shole, cause when I don't perform oh noooow I'm the one that's crazy or a jerk! … I want you guys to look at that footage and start to put everything together now. It's very simple to call someone angry or spoiled or the one thousand names I've been called, but it's harder to try to take a look at what's really behind the curtain.'

He adds that he's 'not complaining. I'm tweeting because I'm so happy you guys got to see this sh** really go down.' And, if you think there's any hatred, you couldn't be more wrong.

'I don't hate Matt Lauer … we don't promote hate. That's the whole point!!! I promote love and truth!… You know what? WE OFF THAT!...They made a mistake... They thought they could pull it but they couldn't! That was just a small representation of a bigger media play that's been going on since the beginning of time.'

Kanye adds that it's 'All positive energy … all smiles. Much love to Matt and the whole 'Today' show. I accept ya'll future apology in advance LOL!'

lol nice piece of irony there... Kanye wants people to be quiet during his "emotional moment", but interrupts Swift during hers.

I feel no sympathy for that guy.

[originalhypa]

Jay Z was on the Stern show this morning talking about Kanye.
He agreed with what Kanye had to say about Taylor Swift, and Bush/Katrina but said his timing was fucked up. He said Kanye was right, but he gets too emotional and doesn't have the ability to stop himself. It's what makes his songs and lyrics so good, because he's willing to take a chance. Sometimes, it blows up in his face.

He gets pretty messed up over this stuff though. The whole Matt Lauer thing kind of broke Kanye. Some of the things he was saying on twitter were hilarious.

[JD¹³]

How was Kanye West being trolled? Because he was being asked legitimate, to the point questions about his ridiculous behaviour? He got what he deserved, he's just pissed that he couldn't defend his egotistical actions.

Zero sympathy for West, it's embarrassing to watch him complain about background noise on two occasions while he's trying to talk. He jumped on stage in front of a couple thousand people and on live TV and snatched the mic out of a girls hand!! The hypocrisy is astounding. Fuck Kanye West, happy to see him be embarrassed in mainstream media.
