Evel Kanyevel Sued By Evel Knieval?
The Jewelry Report w/EbenGregory:
Kanye West Has Another Awards Show Meltdown
So, not only did Kanye West not get the video award at the MTV Europe Music Awards that he somehow felt the Touch The Sky music video deserved (see above video), now Evel Knieval's suing him for trademark infringement and general steez besmirchment.
While I would so love to watch Kanye's testimony, I imagine this will be settled out of court. Maybe if we all encourage Kanye to take a stand, he'll give us what we want, pages and pages of crazy quotes!
Actually, we'll get that anyway.
In related news, various Rocawear entities have been added to the trademark infringement suit against Jay-Z and Roc-A-Fella brought by professional wrestling entertainer Diamond Dallas Page over the diamond logo and handsign used by the Roc fam.
Update:
If you're running Firefox, you may not be able to access the Kanye story. Right now, about 1 am EST Wednesday, Billboard News only displays through Dec. 11th on Firefox/Mac OSX but it shows the 12th on IE/Mac OS 9. And wouldn't you know I'd changed the link from the MTV version in the first place because MTV takes so long to load and is so incredibly sluggish and unpleasant to experience using my current configuration.
MTV? Why do you think I stopped linking to their articles? That web redesign sucks ass cheeks, I prefer Vh1.
