The EMAs are always fantastic, but he ruined the show. These two guys who won were so excited and proud of what they'd done and here he comes ruining their moment.

This is the first time Kanye has lost the plot in regards to losing awards, but he's always said that he deserves every single award he's nominated for.

I thought it was the smartest thing that's ever come out of his mouth because considering what was going on something needed to be said. Bush showed his true colors during that whole ordeal. No one would've ever had the guts to say that truth.

That is great that he said but it wasn't the appropriate time to be saying it. It just starts up controversy and makes him look bad. There is a time for everything, a time and place for things to be said and that wasn't it. That was a time to come help the people down there. Everything else at that point did not matter, it should have been about helping those people who lost so much. He should have come to do what he was suppose to and not add his two cents. That night was not about personal opinion and he should have left his out.

If Kanye was that concerned about Katrina, he should have come down to those places that were destroyed and helped out his fellow brothers and sisters. Not whining like a sissy and making an a$$ out of himself on TV. I have no respect for that sore loser.

Last time I checked, Kanye did go down there to help and he did that particular fund raiser where he said what he said. Which is a hell of a lot more than what Bush did.

Secondly, when would it be the appropriate time to say it? After Bush finally got his head out of his ass and sent down the National Guard? After Bush went and did his BS speech about being on Trent Lott's porch once it's been rebuilt? Or how about after his mother made the comment about staying in the Astrodome being better than where they were living before Katrina hit? Or after the first hand view of modern day slavery when families are displaced and separated and basically being sent to other areas with no knowledge of where there were going or what they were going to do? Better yet, would you have wanted a "safer" black person to say it, like say Bill Cosby (who I absolutely detest) or Barack Obama? Should a white person have said it?

Kanye's egotistical yes. What he did at the MTVE Awards was dumb, yes. But that moment, he said the one thing that no one else would stand up and say. He told the truth.

Just because he made an ass out of himself when he said "Bush doesn't like black people" does not make him an illogical, uneducated, egotistical bastard. His mother Dr. Donda West, worked as the Chair of the English Department at Chicago State University before she retired to be his manager. He attended the Columbia College Chicago which is an art school, and was also an English major at Chicago State University before he dropped out to focus on his dreams.

That does not make him an illogical, uneducated bastard.

    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
