Kanye West Paparazzi, Rapper Blasts That He Is Not A Celebrity [VIDEO]
Kanye West blasted the paparazzi on Wednesday night at a secret show, labeling them as "Motherf-kers".
West was the performer at Adult Swim's upfront where a network unveils its new slate to advertisers in New York's Roseland Ballroom. According to the Huffington Post, he used the opportunity to lace into photograghers who routinely follow him. He performed some of his hits such as All of the Lights and Jesus Walks before using his mic against the paparazzi. He denied being a celebrity and saw no reason why he was a target of cameras.
"I don't know if you know there's one thing about me, but I'm the worst kind of celebrity ... Because I only make real music," West said.
West said that he made music that inspired people and did not want to be asked questions pertaining to anything else. He said he was in the studio to make "real sh-t" and had no use for anything else. He once again declared that he was not a celebrity that deserved to have a stream of paparazzi capturing his every move.
"I don't want nobody coming up to me with cameras and sh-t ... Selling pictures to a f--king magazine ... Asking me dumb f--king questions," West said.
West once again the paparazzi for the injury he sustained last week. The rapper bumped into a street sign in Beverly Hills on May 6 and was left with a bump on his head. He screamed at the photographers and tried to take their cameras. He did not hold back his contempt over the incident at the Adult Swim's upfront.
"Motherf--kers chasing people down and making you run into sh-t, and all they want you to do is laugh and sh-t," West said.
West also addressed his upcoming appearance on Saturday Night Live this weekend. He will serve as the performer for the May 18 finale on NBC. He stated he was not performing to make nice with anyone and that he would not be doing any SNL skits because his life was not a joke. He did not feel the need to humanize himself by making fun of his altercations with the paparazzi.
"What the f--k do I have to apologize for? When did I become inhuman? Or was it them demonizing me and harassing me that made me less than human?" West said.
