Kanye West Enlightens MTV Europe: If I Spent A Million It Must Be Good - 4:13 p.m.

TV producers can't seem to get it in their heads, if your gonna invite Kanye West to a LIVE event, you better keep him away from a working microphone. If there's one laying to the right and he dashes over to plug it in, get the 6 9', 360 pounders to snatch him up by the pastel collar, little feet kicking and swinging.. mouth still moving.. "I'm the greatest thing since Biggie. The flyest since Morris Day. My productions are so slick you need rubber soled shoes to mess wit em." If that doesn't work he'll just scream.. "Dammit! I spent a million damn dollars!!!! Bah haahaahh. Unrecouped. I'm fucking unrecouped. Can a brotha at least get a gold star?"

Kanye West was back in lip-loosed action at the MTV Europe Music Awards. He won the Best Hip-Hop artist award, but "Touch The Sky" was also nominated for Best Music Video. After losing to Justice vs. Simian (who?) he either went up on the stage or stepped from exit stage right to deliver a pissed off tirade directed at the audience and MTV. Throw in a couple of fucks, some shits, this is some bullshit.. The little genius was upset that genius went unrecognized.. "F*ck dis! (My video) cost a million dollars, Pamela Anderson was in it, I was jumping across canyons and sh*t! If I don't win, the awards show loses credibility. Nothing against you (J&S), but hell man."

All eyes on Kanye, he continued backstage, "I haven't seen (the Justice and Simian video). Possibly it could have been quite good but no way better than 'Touch The Sky'. That is complete bullsh*t, I paid a million. Obviously it's not all about the money, but the response it got transcended everything, it really made great TV. It took a month to film; I stood on a mountain; I flew a helicopter over Vegas. I did it to be the king of all videos and I wanted to walk home with that award."

Alright, now I'm a fan of Kanye. Loved it when he was doing the golddigger fling the headback dance, Bush bashing and all that, Late Registration accepted.. But there comes a time when you have to shut your mouth. Even in the US, MTV's choice of winners this year was completely baffling. I thnk Kelly Clarkson won for a song and Christina Aguilera, or was it Pink, Gwen Stefani?.. Anyone with two good ears was looking like, 'are you serious?'

If your video's well received, album sold even more, who cares about a Moonman? Uh.. Kanye does. What's that theory.. every new award you cop your dick grows an inch bigger. Why else would he be so concerned? Or maybe it's the other way around.. every award you lose, jimmy tucks in to hide the shame. I'm sure he has his reasons.

What kills me is Kanye said he hasn't even seen the Justice and Simian video.

Saner minds would think, take the L, but let me see this so-called great video  before I tap dance on the soapbox of injustice.

I'm sure he did that as soon as he got back to the hotel.

Here are the two videos, you decide.

Justice vs. Simian "We Are Your Friends"

Kanye West "Touch the Sky"
