Kanye West not banned from Haiti telethon
MTV has cleared up reports that Kanye West was banned from George Clooney's Hope for Haiti Telethon tonight. Apparently they reached out to Kanye who never called them back. So for everyone keeping score at home, Kanye West wasn't banned from the telethon because he's an asshole. He's just a dick. Glad that's cleared up.
EDIT: Added photos of Kanye posing for the paparazzi at the Louis Vuitton Fashion Show last night. I feel bad now because obviously the man's very busy. Wearing fur coats. In Paris.

Kanye West not invited to Haiti telethon
George Clooney is inviting as many A-Listers as possible to tomorrow's Hope for Haiti Telethon with the logical exception of Kanye West, according to PopEater:
"After what he said on the Katrina telethon and the way he behaved at the MTV Video Music Awards, everyone agrees it's just best that he does not participate," a producing partner told me. "Kayne has to make everything about himself. He will do anything to steal the spotlight and, well, this night it's just not about him."
Of course, Kanye could use this as an opportunity to quietly redeem himself by offering up Amber Rose's ass as a shelter for Haitians. Or at least that's what I would do if the government wasn't interfering with my business by saying women have "free will." Why do you hate poor people, Washington?!
Kanye West pulls a no-show at BET awards
Kanye West completely bailed on the BET Hip-Hop Awards Saturday night, according to E! News:
After stealing Taylor Swift's thunder at the MTV Video Music Awards, the rapper bailed on the Fourth Annual BET Hip-Hop Awards Saturday evening, giving up his nine chances to stage yet another remix-worthy acceptance-speech-crashing moment.
Although in Kanye's defense, I'm sure he was tired from flying to Norway to explain why he should've won the Nobel Prize for apologizing to Taylor Swift. "I'mma let Obama finish, but did you see me say 'I'm sorry' on my blog? I wrote it in ALL CAPS! Why won't you let me be great?!"
Lady GaGa & Kanye West tour canceled, but 50 Cent says it was for gays anyway
Lady GaGa and Kanye West's "Fame Kills" tour was canceled yesterday with word coming out that it was GaGa who pulled out. [Insert hermaphrodite joke here.] Of course, none of that really matters because 50 Cent said it's "the gay tour." Via Gabby Babble:
He then tried to justify his comments by saying that this was what Lady Gaga was calling it. Angie Martinez corrected him saying that Lady GaGa told Kanye that she has a large gay following. 50's reply:
"What did Kanye say, 'Me, too?'"
50 then continued and said:
"Kanye's cool with the gay folk. I have nothing against them, but he's cool with them. He goes and drops his video off to them...Ellen. Ellen DeGeneres. He went there to premiere his video. He's conscious of the gay community and wants them to buy his CD."
If 50 Cent wrote the words "Kanye's gay" on some bullets then shot them at a Hummer in slow motion, it probably would've been less subtle than that interview. Mostly.

Joe Jackson wants Kanye 'blackballed'
Somehow I missed this little item of hilarity: Joe Jackson apparently issued a statement to TMZ encouraging the entertainment industry to blackball Kanye West for interrupting Taylor Swift's VMA acceptance speech:
"I don't know what he was doing, he jumped up on stage and snatched that microphone out of that poor girl's hand. They should blackball him out of show business for that. He just leapt up there, that was bad.
I had just gotten through speaking to him, he was introducing me to his girlfriend, and then three minutes later he jumped up on stage. And people booed Kanye all night."
Okay, granted what Kanye did was stupidly obnoxious and the byproduct of an unchecked ego drowned in cognac, but not exactly a reason to completely shun him from the music industry. Especially at the request of Joe Jackson who I have five words for: "Jesus Juice" and "Little boy's penises." I've said my piece.
