Kanye West Busted!
Kanye West went and got himself busted by the popo at LAX Airport yesterday morning when the irritable Hip-Hop star was trying to get the hell out of LA. Kanye and an overzealous bodyguard didn’t take too kindly to being photographed by the paparazzi so they each decided to snatch the cameras out of the photog’s hands and smash them into the ground, breaking them into many pieces. Once Kanye realized that he was being videotaped by TMZ, he tried to snatch that camera away so he could smash that one too … fortunately for the TMZ dude, the cops interceded before he could snatch away the camera. Kanye tried to run, the TMZ dude alerted the police … and Kanye ended up getting his butt arrested:
A still photographer was trying to take pics of Kanye at the American Airlines terminal. According to our guy on the scene, Kanye allegedly confronted the photog and smashed his camera to the ground. Our photog then began videotaping the scene when Kanye’s bodyguard grabbed our camera — a struggle ensued and the bodyguard threw the video camera to the ground, breaking it. When Kanye realized our camera guy had videotaped the incident, he rushed our guy and yelled, “Gimme that fucking tape!” Both Kanye and his bodyguard have been arrested and will be booked.
It didn’t take long for both Kanye West and his bodyguard to be released from custody … but it wasn’t a quick enough process that Kanye was able to catch his flight, oops:
I mean … chill out, dude. Either Kanye West isn’t a morning person or he’s really not into the whole celebrity thing … contrary to his ever-boastful nature. Click HERE to watch the TMZ video of Kanye freaking out at LAX Airport yesterday morning. I expect this won’t be the very last thing we hear about this incident. Paparazzi are notorious for following thru with lawsuits. Tsk tsk.

I was really surprised when I heard about this whole ordeal. Kanye is usually out of the tabloids and is pretty low key…I’ve always been such a big fan. I was really surprised to see him lash out like that and see his assistant literally smash a really expensive camera to hell right in front of everybody. I think you need to be willing to at least cope in a mature nature with the photogs if you’re going to be a big celeb…it comes with the territory. This temper tantrum is ridic.
