Kanye Arrested at LAX

2008_9_11.kanye.jpgKanye West and his bodyguard were arrested at LAX this morning and charged with felony vandalism for allegedly damaging a papparazo's camera. The bodyguard was also charged with battery, and both are still in custody. I cannot wait to read Kanye's blog posts about this. [MTV, photo by Joshua Mellin]

please, deport him to Russia!

or better yet how bout a little jail time!

Bwahahaaaaaa...

Like his music (and the fact that he hasn't entirely forgotten about Chicago) but I don't think too much of the man himself. Exhibit A.

The paparazzi hate black people.

@Tower:

The paparazzi "don't care about black people".

Most misquoted quote ever.

I’m going to go out and punch the next person I see with a SLR camera as a showing of solidarity with Kanye. I sure hope it’s some kid from the Art Institute.

maybe he was just emotional over 9/11

TMZ are the bottom feeders of papdom; the deliberately try to bait celebs into doing things so they can get good footage for their stupid site and show. Kanye should have socked a pap in the eye and made going to jail more worthwhile. :/

jennyblur, DAMNIT, I knew that. Should have googled it first.
