Quote Of The Day: Jay Z On Kanye West

Quote Of The Day: Jay Z On Kanye West

"He's just a super-passionate person. Of course it was rude because it was her (Taylor Swift's) 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 talking about the world responding to Kanye West's MTV VMA actions

No one got physically harmed, but he hurt her feelings and ruin her moment. He deserves everything his getting from the media, fans and even other celeb. This would not be his first time doing something like this. His an egotistical and selfish person. He could of easily disagree from his seat.

This is the kind of thinking that marriages don't last and men have no total regards to the fact that they can deeply harm and hurt a human being more with the lack of true compassion. This kind of comment shows jay-z would have done the same thing if if had to prove his point. Total disregard for another , just me me me! MEN SEEN VERY SELFISH.

Jay Z is abso-friggin-lutely right. I mean...c'mon. He did not physically attack her. He has said that he was very rude to interrupt her and steal her moment. He has apologized 4 times. Build a friggin bridge and get over it already!

I agree. It is old news. Kanye apologized, Taylor accepted. Next!!

It's old news but their his consequences whether he, or anybody else, likes it or not. If he wants to act like such a passionate fool then he should take his consequences like a man and quite acting like the victim.

If Kanye West did this to Beyonce, "his woman".....lol. Yeah, he would be speaking a VERY different tune. He just is protecting Kanye because he agrees with him and he is secretly happy that he did it and complimented his wife's video. That is why he says that it was "his" opinion and all......I get so tired of these rapper guys ALWAYS protecting their "boys"......always the same cr*p. And I hate when someone does something and people are like, "Well, he did not kill somebody......." like that is the only horrible thing that can be done. Super passionate. No, super *sshole.

I agree with most of what you said except he wasn't protecting him because he agreed with him. He was protecting his money. Apparently, they think if other rappers say its not that bad it's OK. If Jay-Z was smart he wouldn't put any of his money behind Kanye. Kanye is a walking time bomb.

No one got harmed???? Who he is kidding???? Taylor Swift was harmed emotionally. Kayne deserves all the backlash he's getting othewise he'll just think it's perfectly okay for him to do what he did.

Anonymous Anonymous said:

And what is with all the "no one got harmed" cr*p???!!! Taylor Swift did not get harmed??! The only kind of harm that you can cause a person is bodily??!! Wow. He is an *sshole just like Kanye and Chris Brown (his other "bro" that he protects)

You all act like you have some vested interest in this situation! Umm, I doubt you do. I don't. It was rude, it was a mistake, but an apology was made. Move on.

I doubt Jay-Z is "secretly" happy. This happened, who wants to have to defend someone else? If anything this was an annoyance.

i kind of agree. sure it was damn rude of kanye, but he has apologised time and time again; eventually to taylor. although it probably may have been for diplomatic purposes that she said that theres no ill feeling toward him now, i think taylor will be true to her word because she does seem like a genuine person. and no matter how egotistical and bastard-like kanye can be, i truly believe he has seen the error of his ways, in my opinion anyways. i think jay is right when he says kanye is just a 'super-passionate' person.

yeah it was stupid, and it was rude, and it was unnecessary, but that's about it! Jay Z's right, this has gotten blown way out of proportion. Things like that just irk me so much because it shows how our priorities are just way off these days... and how do you avoid this really, with the media like this all over it? There are so many worse things happening in this world on a daily basis, but it is things like kanye west acting rude that get the cover of every magazine? that's ridiculous, and it's sad. and the girl was harmed emotionally? come on, she's over this already, and she's in such a fortunate place: famous, beautiful, rich... I'm sure she can take some abuse, she's still a very lucky gal. whereas half the world's population is starving. I'm not saying let's all grieve over the world's unfairness and cruelty on a daily basis, I'm just trying to put this into perspective a little. Rude and stupid silliness. period, and end of story. Of course a lot is the media's fault, and I see with myself what an effect this has, and it bugs me. oh well. sorry for the rant.

Yes, we "all" have as much of a vested interest in "this" as you do *eye roll* the person who took the time to post. It is called a celebrity site and you are in the comment section. So hard to figure out.

And I think that he is happy. He agrees with Kanye. And the only people he is "annoyed" with are the ones ragging on his best boy.

These type of guys always stick together.

gee big shocker. one ignorant person defending another ignorant person. i hope one day someone embarasses the ehll out of jay z so he knows what its like. i will never understand why these guys think they r big shots and carry on the way they do just cuz there singers. take that away from them and they r just human like everyone else

Anonymous Anonymous said:

And I would be okay with his statement until he said, "No one got harmed." Which just shows how amazingly inconsiderate he is and how he cannot even try to relate to what Taylor went through. She was crying backstage! VERY upset. She had to get it together to perform. He ruined her HUGE moment. And yet Jay-Z says that no one got harmed. What an *ss.

I agree it's over and no one was killed, but it reminds us of the many other times Kanye has disregarded everyone else and cared only about his passion. There's a big difference between being passionate and being an idiot. he was being the latter.
Looking for Kanye to go to rehab....

If a white man would have done that to a black woman Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson would have had rallies and protests all over the place to raise awareness. Yet, Kanye was rude and we should just all get over it. Yeah, ok.

Agree with DonnaJ, (sad but true) could you imagine if this was the other way around!!! OMFG....
And acting like a drunk **s idiot is passionate? then I got a whole lot of passionate jobless fools on my corner at the moment... jayz moves down two notches :(

Yet since it's a black man having done it to a white woman, he gets crucified, reminiscent to the way white folks used to behave in the 50s and 60s. GET OVER IT ALREADY!!! Kanye made a mistake...he apologized Taylor Swift accepted. Get off of the man's case already!!!!!!

"Crucified"? That's a very strong word to use and its obvious that you have ZERO concept of its meaning. If this was ANYTHING like it was back in the 50's, 60's and prior, he never would have made it onto the stage. Learn your history.

Kanye and Jayz have a god complex. Kanye deserves the backlash because its about being appropriate. Put him on the naughty step until he learns his lesson.

It's funny how people who weren't even involved are more angry than the "victim". Taylor was obviously very upset when it happened but even she said that the support she got made up for it. Plus it skyrocketed her celebrity. I'm sure she sold tons more cds and downloads than if it never had happened. She's moved on. Why can't you?

I wonder how Jay-Z would have felt if someone had interrupted Beyonce when she was accepting an award. Call me crazy, but I don't think Kanye would be very supportive of the interrupting person.

This is sad--I think that it really brings out the bigotry in alot of people. Race has nothing to do with this. I am a white woman--and I don't see anything racial in the incident. Yeah Kanye was a jerk--but it's not because he's black--he's just an inconsiderate man who happen to offend a girl who is white. Are we still in the 60's?

Wait, Jay-Z used the term "super-passionate"? Sounds like this is made up. But anyway, just in case it's not, Jay-Z should have remained silent. Kanye is a grown man who has the ability to control his emotions. He still humiliated a teenager, and that's not cool no matter how "super-passionate" a person is.
