Kanye West has managed to turn being an ignorant moron into an artform all of its own.

Here, he even surpasses his usual boorish behaviour by insisting that everyone in his concert audience stand up before he will perform a song.

He zeros in on two individuals who are not standing, while the crowd chant and boo at them.

It turns out that one fan is wheel-chair bound, and the other has a prosthetic limb, so West continues his set.

My view is - if an artist advised me he was not going to continue until i stood up, I would remain seated on principle - I stand when and if I wish, not otherwise, and certainly not because I am instructed to do so from the stage.

Leaving aside the tastelessness of this behaviour - does anyone agree that no musician can bully their audience into behaving the way they want?

AOG ( 14:37)...difficult to argue with you there ! But perhaps we should have a separate heading, called something like " Pop music, celebrities and other trivia"
mikey, just because you consider pop music to be beneath you doesn't mean we all feel the same way.
This story is news and has been carried on many major, international online news outlets over the weekend.
Kanye also went on a long rant the following night at his next gig, slating the press and accusing them of picking on him.

He has an ego the size of his wife's (Kim Kardashian) backside!
Daffy...this story is "news" because someone has decided it should be, not due to any intrinsic newsworthiness.

I know nothing about this chap but I agree that his ego should be trimmed down a peg or two.
I've never heard of him - glad I haven't.
Celebrity gossip is full of people that you and I have never heard of jourdain!
