Kanye West calls out two fans for not standing for song

The incident began when West stopped the concert and asked everyone in attendance to stand for the next song "unless you got a handicap pass where you get special parking and shit," he told the crowd.

He boasted about being able to spot anyone in the audience who wasn't standing, which is when he noticed the two fans who were still seated. West waited for them to stand and even asked the crowd whether the two people should be forced to move seats. Members of the crowd started chanting for them to stand.

The rapper continued to be incredulous that the two weren't standing and sent over a member of his security team to assess the situation. "This is the longest I've had to wait to do the song — it's unbelievable," West lamented.

One of the fans was in a wheelchair, and one had a prosthetic limb, but West didn't appear to believe this.
Evidently Kanye is a Swahili word that means "Dick that walks like a man."
What a total @$$hole.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that neither BET nor CNN will cover this, but amazingly, the Hollywood Reporter did.
God love ya, Kanye. :lol:

OTOH, anybody in attendance at a Kanye West concert has a legitimate claim at a handicap, in addition to however they may be physically crippled....

Anyone who insists that I stand for anything other than the National Anthem is cordially invited to perform an anatomically improbable act of self copulation, then consume excrement and expire in a conflagration. I'm willing to extend that to certain ceremonial songs where standing by all who are physically capable thereof is customary, like the Wedding March. I can't imagine a single song Kanye West would sing in a concert that fulfills that requirement.

I can't imagine Kanye Who(?) being in my presence. Possibly attempting to break in, yes, but I have the answer for that.

Kanye West doesn't care about handicapped people.

But I really wish him and Justin Bieber were appointed goodwill ambassadors to the Islamic State of whatever it is this week.
