Though apologetic, Kanye West doesn't seem to have learned from his MTV Video Music Awards blunder.This past weekend the Chicago native performed at the 'Common & Friends Benefit Concert,' a charity event that featured performances by Nas, De La Soul, Queen Latifah and more, where he apparently threw a fit backstage when he saw someone eating chicken.
"Why wasn't I offered chicken?" Kanye complained, according to several sources. "You want me to perform for free, [and] everyone is eating ... Why am I not eating?"
When a waitress tried to appease the talented yet tantrum-prone rapper, explaining that he hadn't asked for any food, Kanye replied angrily, "Well, I'm asking now!"
When he received the chicken he requested, he allegedly took one bite, then threw the rest out, as his girl Amber Rose stood silently at his side, and the rest of the artists backstage looked on "in awe." We really want to stop giving the guy a hard time because it seems a bit unfair at this point, but if this report is accurate, Kanye really needs to calm down.

A friend of mine works at the airport-it is her job to escort VIP passengers. When she tried to assist him her told her, "I don't talk to just ANYBODY, go talk to his people." She responded, " Funny thing, I don't talk to just ANYBODY either - we have something in common." A big film studio exec overheard the conversation and gave her a new job on the spot at a new studio. Justice is served.

His interior continues to be as ugly as his exterior. His awesome ego will continue to blind him to his extremely negative attitude and he will continually exhibit a major behavior problem. It will be a long time before he finally grows up if ever.................

Kanye is a pompous ass who thinks he's as big as Elvis -- he said so himself. He needs to go away. Quickly. Get lost, don't come back. He won't be missed.

What Kanye need is a good old fashion ass whuppin to knock him off his high horse. If he thinks he's ALL THAT and deserves to be treated with respect & special privileges, then he needs to show that he DESERVES that respect and special privilege. Until then find a hole to crawl into and get yourself straight.....his Mommas rolling in her grave.

WOW, Kanye is really out of control - It seems like he is either addicted to something or has some kind of mental illness. To the public if everyone would stop listening to his "music" then he would go away - too bad he wasn't a one-hit-wonder!!

I was agreeing with you until you said "black" why does everything has to be about race? Why can't he be just a spoiled punk?

I have never seen or heard this person do anything and I do not plan to in the future!! He is really a spoiled brat with no manners or training at all-his parents must be proud!!!
