Obama Slams Kanye
It seems the incident that happened over the weekend at the MTV Video Music Awards is only getting more attention as the week continues on. Celebrities and other public figures are jumping in with their own thoughts on what happened Sunday night when Taylor Swift won the award for Best Female Video. If you recall, Kanye jumped on stage from the audience, took the microphone from her and said friend Beyonce should have won.
The performer has been slammed repeatedly since the incident, and he has apologized more than once for his actions. His latest apology came last night as he sat across from Jay Leno during the premiere of NBC’s all-new The Jay Leno Show. President Barack Obama has even jumped in with his own thoughts calling Kanye a jackass, which is also sparking some controversy. The comment was made off the record during an interview with a reporter from CNBC, but a reporter from a rival network posted the comment to his Twitter shortly after it was said.
What do you think? Is this incident getting more attention than it deserves or do you agree with what people are saying? Check out the video of Kanye from last night’s Jay Leno Show below.
