And Now, A Far Less Frivolous Collection Of Twitter Reponses to Kanye West's Latest Adventure

Ugh ugh ugh. I promise to stop posting about this when something more interesting or less increasingly depressing comes along. Would settle for just the latter.

oh please says:

The entire Kanye West thing got blown out of proportion. I feel like he is getting the treatment from celebrites that Chris Brown should have gotten.

Think about it, CB beats his girl's face like a pinata, and everyone says they're 'praying for him'. Puffy says some wach ish like 'sparks fly' on Ellen's show. But in Kanye's case, he grabs a mic from nice Blonde, country singer and Pink is calling him a POS, Kellie Pickler, Kellie Clarkson, Donald Trump are all acting like he needs to hung outside a courthouse or something.

PEOPLE NEED TO CALM DOWN! ODB did the same thing at the Grammy's a few years ago, and everyone pretty much assumed he was drunk and moved on. IF Kanye had done this to another Black artist at the BET awards, would anyone have cared?? Nope.
