I don't buy it. it was not the first time he did that at an award show but before people didn't care because they didn't care about the winner. This time is was poor little innocent looking taylor swift so he got called out for it. He's only sorry because people called him out for being a jerk.
1He reminds me of every abusive man who beats up a woman and when the police show up, starts blubbering about how hard his life is and how mean everyone is to him...stupid jackass.
2If you decide to go on Jay Leno and "apologize" at least have some sort of speech prepared or some sort of plan. He was just stammering like " uh, yeah, uh hmm"
Seemed like he was almost forced.
3oh please spare me the drama kanye. he did NOT break down and he deserves the verbal smackdown he's getting from everyone. this isn't the first time kanye has behaved like a 3 year old who's had too much sugar.
4He knew exactly what he was doing and the only thing he's sorry for is that he's being called out for being a ginormous a$$hat.
Flippin tool....
5Give me a break! If Kanye is so "sorry"
6why hasn't he stepped up an apologized personally to Taylor? And...where are Al or Jesse out there expressing outrage about kanye's classless outburst?
taylor was on the view today and she said she hasn't heard from kanye. he doesn't need to apologize on tv he needs to apologize to her.
7I think Kanye is full of it. This was not the first time he bombarded the stage to protest another artists win. I guess that Hennessey wore off and now he realizes he kissed his career goodbye with that stunt. Even the President called him a jackass.
8right on girls, this is not the first time he's acted like that. the man thinks he's above everyone. the first apology was condescending, he even put a disclaimer in there because he really believed the award was not deserving. then he comes out more humbled now because he's now getting called for his behavior, by his very own peers. i don't feel sympathy for this guy at all. he needs to seek a therapist.
9Anon #2: You are spot on with that comment. I was thinking exactly that when I was watching him last night and he really didn't say anything that showed him to be remorseful. It was all about him.
10Kanye acted like a spoiled, petulant child. He deserves all of the criticism he is receiving. The apology is really not even effective after all of this. Kanye, if you can't conduct yourself with a minimum of class and convey the respect for others that I'm sure you feel you deserve....then just go away. The world will not implode if you are no longer on the scene. Really, you are not "all that."
11Yep - he needs help. Alot of it. I love his music, but now he's overshadowing his talent with his disrepectful ways.
12Kanye West: STILL A DIC#. A true human being wouldn't stomp on a kitten as Katy Perry so smartly put it. People think they can do ANYTHING if they just show up on a talk show the next day boo hooin' about how sorry they are, blah blah blah. This man is such a shameless phony and a sorry excuse for a human being. He is no more valuable than my dog's turd. The fact that we are even discussing him is probably all that he wants. ASS.
13hope he gets smacked in the face...like a good ol b**** slap and then maybe a back hand just to seal the deal...I'd soooo pay to hit him in that titanium jaw of his
14Please does anybody beleive he's really sincere.The little bit I heard of Leno show is he fed right into wests hands!
15Ugh. How did this turn into a "poor Kayne is sorry" event? Jay shouldn't have even given him the air time to do this.
16IMHO Leno shouldn't have asked that kind of question to Kanye. He's so sensitive and sorry about his mother's death. I don't get why Leno asked that question. I think he just wanted to hurt Kanye because of his attidude in VMAs. I don't say he did something good by going up stage and disturbing Swift and Beyonce. But his mother's diffrent for him. Leno did wrong as Kanye did on the stage.
17not only did his dis taylor he dissd the fans considering the VMAS are about our votes so hes saying we dont know anything hes a jerk you can be great but to act like your better then everyone is just pathetic and i will have nothing to do with any celeb that peotrays that kind of behavior
18DON'T BUY IT!!!
19not only did he disrespect Taylor swift but he never said why really?
20I didn't even bother to play the video. He is in heavy damage control mode right now. He has to protect his future earning potential. That is all he cares about. As his career advanced, his ego and his narcissism has gone unchecked. West is a total and complete putz.
Beyonce was a class act all the way that night.
21save us the bull kanye!
