I hate award shows. I don't watch them. It's comparing apples to oranges. The premiss is ridiculous. How can you quantify if Eminem raps better than Taylor Swift publicly humiliates her exes? I also think they are boring. I find them to be liken to watching a sleepy, middle-american high school graduation with better clothes and each graduate getting to make a minute valedictory address. Ug. Is The Good Wife on?
So I only heard about what Kanye West did after the fact. It makes my skin crawl on so many levels. Look. I get the feeling of getting jipped; ripped off. "It's not fair." is a huge part of my vocabulary. But who the hell are you to decide a guy with a dozen albums, who plays as many instruments is less talented than a singer who stole choreography from Gwen Verdon and Bob Fosse? All while sitting next to a woman whose latest claim to fame is catching champagne on her ass. Please.
Speaking of that bubbly-assed woman. Isn't she you wife? Maybe if you love Beyonce more you shouldn'thave put a ring on it. Beyonce is a big girl. She can stick up for herself. Then next time you want to give an award away, two things: 1. Make sure the award is - YOUR OWN. 2. Give it to a fireman, a cop, or a teacher.
Because they are the ones who get played with everyday with disrespect and genuine danger. Plus they can't drive the Porche to the mansion and lick their wounds in Evian baths and Hermes blankets. Don't worry Kanye. Beyonce has been rewarded enough…and so have you.
