On the last September 11th, when people were a little jumpy at airports, Kanye West decided to make a scene with a photographer at LAX. For some reason, the airport wasn't thrilled with this and called the police... Oh Kanye, you suck so hard. Still, they couldn't have been that mad, I guess, as Kanye's now been cleared of all wrongdoings.

A judge on Friday cleared rapper Kanye West of criminal charges following a scuffle with paparazzi at Los Angeles International Airport last year, pending his completion of community service, a spokesman for the Los Angeles City Attorney said.

Grammy award-winning West, who has often captured media attention with public outbursts, and his manager were charged in March with battery, theft and vandalism following the September 11, 2008 confrontation with a photographer.

West, whose hits include "Jesus Walks" and "Hey Mama," and the manager were released on bail hours after their arrest.

The judge on Friday said the charges would be dismissed if they performed 50 community service hours, according to L.A. City Attorney's Office spokesman Frank Mateljan. The two have already completed an anger management course, Mateljan said.

I don't think Kanye needs anger management classes, I think he needs social etiquette classes. Can you imagine Kanye in one of those courses, with an old, stuffy British lady saying, "What is the proper thing to tell the host of a dinner party." Kanye would then respond, "Wazup ho, 'Ye in the house, where the chicken wings at! WHERE THE CHICKEN WINGS AT!" ... Ok, I made that part up. In reality, Kanye would be much, much more offensive.

I'm not sure what the world is coming to when Kanye West doesn't take any opportunity to promote himself and his genius, but that's what happened last weekend when he ditched the BET Hip-Hop Awards.

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. (E! News)

Kanye won nine awards and still didn't go? Ok, what happened to Kanye? Do we need to immediately put out a search team? I've got my emergency Kanye-finding kit right here - it's got flashlights, walkie-talkies, pre-made remix samples, bullets, fish sticks, white women and a glowing review of his last album. We'll locate him in less than five minutes.

On Wednesday I talked about a rumor that Kanye West was going to rehab for alcoholism as soon as his tour with Lady GaGa was over. I pretty much dismissed it as stupid, since Kanye hasn't openly said anything about it. Now though, Kanye and GaGa's tour has been canceled without any explanation. Hmmmm, maybe Kanye does have a problem...you know, besides all those other ones we already knew about.

Just days performance dates were announced, a joint tour with Kanye West and Lady Gaga has been canceled.

Live Nation made the announcement Thursday but did not offer any explanation, according to the Associated Press.

The tour -- titled "Fame Kills" -- had been in the works for months and was set to kick off next month, on Nov. 10 in Phoenix and it was planned to run through at least January.

I don't know what we did to you to make you angry, Kanye, but we're sorry. Come on man, we don't deserve this. Now you're not touring and maybe going to rehab, so we won't get anymore of your shenanigans, which are insane and fun, and you're not taking GaGa on tour, so we have to deal with more of her shenanigans, which are disturbing and awful. Be cool Kanye, don't do this to us. Please!

I always thought MSNBC was for classy news stories about world wars and politicians cheating on their wives, but I guess they're as soulless and evil as the rest of us. Here's a nice little rumor they're spreading about Kanye West going to rehab.

Before Kanye West rushed the stage at the MTV Video Music Awards, the singer was filmed on the awards show’s red carpet drinking Hennessey cognac straight from the bottle. Now, the next logical thing has happened: people are talking about West going to rehab.

Star Magazine and other publications are reporting that West is blaming alcohol for his breach in decorum, and that as soon as West wraps his “Fame Kills” tour with Lady Gaga this January, he’ll head to rehab.

West hasn’t blogged about it, there was no comment from his camp, and friends close to West say it’s not true, so maybe this is just the product of a game of telephone gone awry during a slow news week.

I think that last part is true. I mean, when have you ever known Kanye West to be quiet about anything he does. If he was really going to rehab, he's be all, "YO YO, EVERYONE, WHAT IT IS. THE WEST IS GOING TO CURE HIS PERSONAL DEMONS WITH A LITTLE REHIZZY. I'M GONNA GIT MY ANTI-DRINK ON, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THE GREATS HAVE DONE. ELVIS, JIMMY...OTHER PEOPLE, THEY WENT TO REHAB, NOW KANYE DOES TOO. I THINK JESUS WENT ONCE TOO. PEACE, I'M OUT OF HERE. HAVE ONE FOR ME, CAUSE I AIN'T." Then he'd celebrate curing his alcoholism with a huge pile of cocaine. One step at a time Kanye, one step at a time.

I have about as much respect for the Video Music Awards as I do for, say, anyone who attends the Video Music Awards (My god, Fall Out Boy was there! LIKE WOW!) Seriously, it's a video music award show created by MTV, a channel that doesn't even play music videos anymore! *shakes head* That being said, Kanye West is a douchebag. Let me explain why...

Taylor Swift's first MTV Video Music Awards win was one to remember.

The country cutie picked up her first Moonman on Sunday night for Best Female Video for "You Belong To Me," but didn't have the chance to finish her speech thanks to Kanye West, who took the stage to interrupt her.

"Thank you so much! I always dreamed about what it would be like to maybe win one of these some day but I never actually thought it would happen," Taylor said as she accepted the award, choking up. "I sing country music so thank you so much for giving me the chance to win a VMA award."

But before she could continue, Kanye took the stage to praise one of her competitors, Beyonce, who was nominated for "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)."

"Yo Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'm [going to] let you finish -- but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time," Kanye said, earning the boos of the crowd as Beyonce looked shocked in the audience.

A source on the scene told Access Hollywood on Sunday night that the rapper, who was photographed on the red carpet with girlfriend Amber Rose earlier in the evening, was kicked out of the ceremony shortly thereafter. (Access Hollywood)

Now, since other celebrities have nothing better to do but talk about other celebrities, they all took this time to weigh in on the situation. They flocked to twitter where most just took the opportunity to talk about themselves - except singer Pink. She actually made me laugh.

"Kanye west is the biggest piece of s*** on earth. Quote me...," she tweeted. "My heart goes out to taylor swift. She is a sweet and talented girl and deserved her moment. She should know we all love her."

I think she already knew we love her - that's why she won the damn award. Still, that's not cool Kanye, and you may be in trouble now. Taylor Swift is from the south, and they know how to teach a lesson to disrespectful men, mostly using a 12-gauge shotgun to really drive the point home.

Yesterday, a fun little rumor started to pass around - and by fun, I mean stupid. Kanye West had apparently said he wanted the title of "King of Pop" from Michael Jackson, now that the singer was dead. Yep, that's the rumor...

"You know everyone loves and respects Michael but times change. It's so sad to see Michael gone but it makes a path for a new King of Pop and I'm willing to take that on," so he told Scrape TV.

On what makes him deserve the title, Kanye said, "There's nobody who can match me in sales and in respect so it only makes sense for me to take over Michael's crown and become the new King."

The rapper then added, "First there was Elvis [Presley], then there was Michael, now in the 21st century it's Kanye's time to rule. I have nothing but respect for Michael but someone needs to pick up where he left off and there's nobody better than me to do that. I am the new King of Pop."

Furthermore, Kanye reportedly has reached out to the Jackson family to obtain official permission to use the title but so far received no response from them. It is believed that the family is still mourning over Michael's death. (Ace Showbiz)

This all turned out to be super-fake. Still, it certainly sounded believable since this is the kind of thing Kanye would do. But Kanye, if you're out there and this gave you any ideas - you cannot claim this title, you need to earn it. To actually pick a new king of pop, we'll need to have a battle to the death - a royal rumble, if you will. We'll tale Kanye and Justin Timberlake and Usher and anyone else you want to throw in and they can duke it out. Whoever is alive at the end gets the title and this $15 coupon to Arby's. Hell, that's a good deal, you can get like ten roast beef sandwiches for that. Mmm...

Pink is a girl who clearly speaks her mind (read: doesn't shut the hell up). She used this charming personality trait after being pissed off at Kanye West recently.

"I was at Stella McCartney's Paris fashion show with the vice president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, Paul McCartney and Kanye West. The entire time Kanye is going, 'They need more fur in this show'. He just wouldn't shut up about how he loved fur. I mean, he's saying this to me, the PETA guy and Paul McCartney!" Pink said. "I was just so grossed out by him. I'm like, 'You're an idiot!' There are so many people who I think are a waste of skin and he's up there. I should wear him. Go on, donate yourself Kanye. People can wear your fur." (The Sun)

Listen, you can't be mad at Kanye for being inappropriate at a fashion show. He knew there would be hot girls, but didn't realize they'd be clothed, so he got bored. If anything, you should blame yourself, Pink. If you took off all your clothes, maybe Kanye wouldn't have kept talking. Animals are naked and you love them. Kanye is clothed and you hate him. It really only makes perfect sense. I'm amazed I had to spell it out to such an observant person like you.
