I want to know, too. Did Monte ask him to fix it?

I do believe he also said back during that Katrina telethon with all the stars taking the calls something to the effect of "George Bush hates black people".

This guy doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut.

Apparently Obama called him a jackass during an interview, which was supposed to be off the record, but wasn't.

Yeah, some choice quotes by Kanye West:

"George Bush doesn't care about black people, ... They're saying black families are looting and white families are just looking for food...they're giving the (Army) permission to shoot us.”
- on the air during a telethon benefiting the victims of Hurricane Katrina

“I realize that my place and position in history is that I will go down as the voice of this generation, of this decade, I will be the loudest voice."

“My greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live.”

I wondered that as well.

We don't need spelling police.

Yes. Some of us do. We could also use a visit from the Federal Grammar Authority as well.

But, all corrections must be done in red ink, and then the post given a final grade at the end.

Correcting a title's spelling is harmless. If the title had been fundamentally *changed* that's a problem.

I just corrected Kanye's name in the subject.


Edit: I don't intend to be spelling police on all posts or even all subject lines, but when the subject is somebody's proper name, and a copywritten name because of their profession, these things matter. At least to me.

I've heard that Kanye and Taylor have the same agent. This wreaks of publicity stunt.

For celebrities, any press is good press. Especially the bad press.

I never heard of either of them so I don't care. Rap and country... *shudder*! But the country chick did have quite the amusing speechless look. And raining on her moonman moment was uncool. Seriously though, I'd have never known it happened if I didn't run across it accidentally while surfing as I spend way too much time on geeky things rather than popular ones.

Kanye has been a bad influence on Mario.

...

We're talking about Kanye West; you know, the guy who when speaking to post show interviewers at the 2008 Grammies said, "Who the **** is Herbie Hancock?"

He's the guy that signed the Declaration of Independence, right? :)

I'm very fond of that particular political tactic. There's a great West Wing episode that involves it, and it amuses me to no end.

I heard an extended version of that clip, where Obama said to make sure that was off the record, and he brought up the fly incident as a comparison.
