Hey, I didn’t call Kanye West a jackass, the President did. But he’s still a jackass either way. I’m sure he’s been called much worse since he yanked the mic away from Taylor Swift at MTV’s Video Music Awards in September.

When I heard that West and Lady Gaga would be touring together, I thought, what a horrible blow for Gaga. Not that she’s any stranger to controversy, what with her blood-spattered performances and all. Actually, these two might be perfect to tour together.

But alas, the show will NOT go on, at least not with West. Apparently, he’s being dropped from the tour, whether, as he told Jay Leno, he needed to take some time off, or whether he was asked to take some time off (I vote for the latter).

Gaga told Billboard, “Kanye’s going to take some time off. But the good news is that I’m going on tour in a few weeks.”

Ironically, the ill-fated tour was named “Fame Kills.”

Kanye West and Lady Gaga’s “Fame Kills” tour has been canceled, according to the Associated Press.

The tour, scheduled to kick off next month in Phoenix, Ariz., was canceled earlier Thursday (October 1). Those who have already purchased concert tickets will receive refunds.

The bad news comes on the heels of Kanye receiving negative press for ruining Taylor Swift’s VMAs win.

Lady Gaga recently spoke to Canadian Press about the situation. She said, “But at the end of the day, [Kanye] is a pioneer in hip-hop music, and he changed what hip-hop music means. And I think that it’s time for everyone to kind of take their heads out of the newspapers and remember that, in truth, Kanye’s making most of the music we hear on the radio today.”

Kanye, I’ma let you finish!

Lady GaGa is the latest player to weigh in on the whole Kanye-Taylor Swift dramz.

Whilst promoting their upcoming joint tour, Gagita told a Las Vegas radio station that her first reaction to Kanye’s interruption was, “Oh gosh,” but the Lady thinks it’s “unfair to judge somebody on one mistake they’ve made.”

GaGa still believes West is “a good guy” and that “everybody makes mistakes,” which we’ll definitely give her.

“He feels so fucking bad. He really does. I think that everyone can get so caught up in gossip and stuff,” says GaGa. “I felt like that moment kind of like really portrayed him in a way that he really isn’t. It was just a random moment.”

Do U agree????

Grass is green, today is Wednesday, Lady CaCa’s hermie peen gets hard in the morning and Kanye West had himself another hissy fit tantrum. But this wasn’t about Taylor Swift or Beyonce, this was about CHICKEN! Finally, Kanye’s b-hole pops over something worthwhile.

According to Vibe (via C+D), Kanye was backstage at Common’s benefit show in Hollywood over the weekend when he noticed that everyone was nibbling on chicken but him! Even Sylvia Browne could have predicted what was going to happen next. Kanye, who is a 6-year-old cunty girl in the body of a gay fish, immediately squeezed his internal CAPS-LOCK key (aka his prostate) and shouted at the server, “Why wasn’t I offered chicken? You want me to perform for free, and everyone is eating… why am I not eating?” The server then took Kanye by the hand, stood him up, gave him a “pow pow” on the nalgas and told him to count to 10 in the corner.

After that, the waitress told him that he didn’t ask for any chicken, in which Kanye responded with, “Well, I’m asking now!” When the queen diva cunt finally got his chicken, he took one bite out of it and threw it in the trash.

I was right on Kanye’s side until I read that he threw the chicken in the trash. You do not waste chicken. The saying is “keep fucking that chicken” not “keep trashing that chicken.” I really mean it this time when I say that Kanye needs an army of abuelitas to set his bitch ass straight. It’s going to take more than one. This boy needs a thorough switch whoopin’ by a group of highly-trained abuelitas. BITCH BOGUS!

And no, not CAPS-LOCK rehab. The internet couldn’t take it if Kanye West stopped dry humping on his CAPS-LOCK key. Nope. But some sources are telling Star Magazine that there’s a chance Kanye could have a problem with the sweet nectar. Before Kanye ripped Taylor Swift’s heart out of her chester at the VMAs, he had been getting intimate with a bottle of Henny all night. So of course, Henny took the fall for his verbal barf fest, and now Kanye might go off to rehab to try to erase his wrong.

MSNBC’s The Scoop says that sources close to Kanye haven’t heard about him checking into the tank right after he finishes his Fame Kills tour with Lady CaCa in a few months. Kanye’s spokeswhore also wouldn’t comment on this.

This is my question, is there such thing as solo rehab? Because the quickest way to get a drunk reaching for their poison is to put Kanye West in the same room as them. That will make you fuck your sobriety directly in the asshole. Seriously, they should add a 13th step: Keep away from all things Kanye-related!

Kanye West has been a permanent fixture in the media since his rude on-stage attack on Taylor Swift. But his issues may be a little deeper than just his pure need for attention.

Rumor has it Kanye is considering checking into rehab! According to Star, Kanye has been boozing ever since his mother Donda died one day after receiving a tummy tuck in November 2007.

An insider tells the mag, “His drinking is getting worse — and when he has too much, he can be mean and obnoxious. If he doesn’t get help soon, things could really spiral out of control.”

Apparently he’s planning on checking in after his Fame Kills tour with Lady Gaga wraps up in January. “Kanye’s afraid to go to rehab, but he knows he needs help and is taking steps in the right direction.”

In addition, our Hollyscoop spies witnessed Kanye at Hollywood hotspot Capitol City on September 22nd when he attended Seth MacFarlane’s premiere party for The Cleveland Show.

Our source says a waitress approached the table Kanye was sitting at, and handed him a white wine. “Kanye must have wanted something a little stronger because he sent back the wine in exchange for a lemon drop martini.”

The stronger liquor must have gotten Kanye into party mode, because our eyewitness says he was overly touchy-feely with girlfiend Amber, and we’ll just say there was major PDA from them.

The source says Kanye was “in good spirits, laughing and joking with people, and taking pics with everyone around him.”

This account comes just two weeks after Kanye was accompanied by a bottle of Hennessy on the VMA carpet. Rumor has it he was in such a drunken stupor that he doesn’t even remember storming the stage.

Taylor Swift may have received a phone apology from Kanye West last week but she wasn’t supposed to pick up the phone when Katy Perry called sometime last month.

“I wasn’t going to say anything about that ever!” Taylor exclusively told JustJared.com about Katy drunk dialing her in the middle of the night. “I don’t want to tell secrets!”

It was 3 or 4 in the morning when Katy intended on leaving Taylor a funny voicemail, sources tell Just Jared. She called Taylor, thinking she’d be asleep, but Taylor surprisingly picked up the phone! Hey, gurl!

Ms. Swift apologized profusely for answering and hung up so Katy could leave her funny voicemail. Taylor wasn’t able to share the exact voicemail but was able to divulge this much to Just Jared: “It was a very colorful and creative, unique voicemail.”

Colorful. Mm-hmm…

In a quick interview, Michael Moore comments on the whole “Kayne West- Taylor Swift” fiasco and talks about the death of his mother.

P.S. His new film, “Capitalism: A Love Story,” comes out on Oct. 2…here’s the trailer if you haven’t seen it yet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhydyxRjujU

At least Kanye West has someone defending him.

Jay-Z defended his protege during a BBC Radio 1 interview this morning, saying that he didn’t feel it was right for Kanye to be receiving so much backlash from the VMAs’ Taylor Swift debacle.

Jay-Z admits: “Of course it was rude because it was her moment, but that’s the way he really felt…I think it was rude, but the way they’re treating him … He’s on the cover of every paper. He didn’t kill anybody. No one got harmed.”

Jay-Z should rewatch the video and look at Taylor Swift’s face and really ask himself if he thinks no one was harmed.

The rapper admitted that Kanye was “inappropriate at the time,” but justifies the stunt because he is “a super-passionate person.”

Yo Jay, we’re really happy for you and we would let you finish, but Kanye is one of the greatest douches of all time!!!

The floodgates are open, boys! Best just to let it run it’s course and let everyone have a great laugh at Kanye’s expense.

Taylor Swift was on The Morning Show with Elvis Duran today and revealed that she might be crushing on Twilight stud Taylor Lautner!

Wouldn’t that be presh?

Taylor says of Taylor:

“Aw, Tay-Tay. Well, see, I don’t know Rob Pattinson, so I guess by default, I’d be on Team Tay. I love him. He’s so cute!“

T-Swizzle also mentions her admiration for Janet Jackson, who sent her flowers after the VMAs, and for Kelly Clarkson:

“Kelly’s amazing. I’d love to work with her. We should write a song together. I love how honest and real she is. She speaks her mind, and I think it’s a beautiful thing.”

YES!

That’s a fab idea! Get to it, girls!
