Kanye West: Still Pushing The Douchebag Envelope

Posted by: Tristan

It must be tough being Kanye West.  Imagine waking up every morning and having to find a way to let everyone know that you are a bigger douchebag than you were the day before.

Fortunately, he has a genius for this kind of thing.  Compare how West tops the last time he made the Douchebag Report with his latest antic.

Last time, he was speaking in an interview, a forum where at least someone (the interviewer) gave a damn about what Kanye had to say.

This time, however, the rapper-producer decided to unleash his opinions on an audience who was listening to what someone else, Taylor Swift, was already in the middle of saying.  She was in the middle of accepting an MTV VMA award when this happened:

This event puts the Douchebag Report in the odd situation of agreeing with Dane Cook, who tweeted “Kanye did something incredible tonight. He made me like country music. Kanye is now a Kanyunt.”

Likewise, it puts us in the odd situation of drawing attention to a television network which doesn’t show music videos, but still seems entitled to give out awards for them.  Normally, this would, at best, entitle them to their own Douchebag Report.  Hell, inviting Kanye should entitle one to one of our worst floggings, but once Kanye opened his mouth, we entered a new order of douchebag magnitude.

For this, we have to take our hat off to the man.  Of course, then we’d like to take his head off with it, Odd Job-style.
