Kanye West Gets Suddenly Shy
Ego maniacal rap superstar Kanye West is usually never one to shy away from attention … but somethin’ must’ve gotten his goat up here in SoCal yesterday when he confronted a photog who was shooting him in an effort to get the pap to stop taking photos. I believe this is the first time in recorded history that Kanye West asked NOT to be photographed since that time last year he wiled out on a photog at LAX Airport:

Perhaps the gentleman was filming his bad side or mebbe Kanye just done lost his mind but for him to ask not to be photographed seems very strange to me. Not for nothin’ but Kanye West is one of the most fame hungry musicians out there …but I suppose Kanye needs to diva out every once in a while. I don’t think it’s a good idea for him to start asking for people to stop paying attention to him because one day (mebbe sooner than he would like), people will stop.

Trent, his is totally not the first time. Didn’t he get into a physical fight with some guy that was video taping him in the airport? They tried to bring him to court for it I think.

@Monique — Oh right, at LAX. I guess sometimes he turns his diva on.

Kanye West is so over. His music used to be epic and, while still good, it doesn’t compare to his old stuff. He’s kind of just fading away as far as music goes.

Trent, it would have been awesome if, on the pics, you had written “Please, No Photos” instead of “No Pictures, Please.” (listen to his part in “Run This Town.”)

He’s wearing a KC Royals hat…. I think I need to re-think my fandom. Just when I thought being a Royals fan couldn’t be any more painful.
