Once again Kanye West has managed to make himself look like the major jackass he is!!

By now most people have heard/seen the major diss KW gave pop-country darling Taylor Swfit when he took the stage during her win for Best Female Video of year saying that Beyonce’s video for ‘Single Ladies’ was one of the best videos ever.

Taylor (who was near tears for winning) was left with a total look of shock and was taken off the stage while the show cut to commerical break.  According to sources, MTV’s producers kicked KW and his date out of the show and yanked his proformance/presentation for the night.

Beyonce later won Video of the Year for ‘Single Ladies’, but when she took the stage, she brought Taylor out to give her the chance to say her Thank You’s.  That was a class act right there.

KW took to his blog to issue the following:

“I’M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD’VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED!”

At this point I for one am sick of KW and his bullshit excuses, he pulls this shit all the time, and then takes to his blog to say he’s sorry.  Get a grip Kanye, the world does not revolve around you.

We love you Taylor Swift, rock on girl.

BTW…if you haven’t seen KW epic fail, here it is

Okay, we can file this one in the WTF category.  It looks like boy band the BackStreet Boys have jumped on the Vampire train.

In their new video for their new single “Straight Through My Heart”, they play you guessed it vampires!!

Check it out below!!

Just have to say, wonder where they got the idea for the Red Vamp Eyes!!  I think I think them better on Dakota Fanning!!!

By now I’m sure you’ve heard that Stephenie Meyer has been accused of plagiarizing her novel ‘Breaking Dawn’ by some author named Jordan Scott.

Scott has served Ms.Meyer with a “cease and desist order regarding the novel. Claiming that the idea of weddings, slightly rough honeymoon consummation, and other worldly pregnancies were stolen from her 2006 novel ‘The Nocturne’.

According to MTV.com Scott’s novel is about “a magical tale of doomed love between a young sorcerer and a teenage girl in 15th-century France”.

The following statement was released from Little,Brown publisher of ‘The Twilight Saga’.
“The claim that ‘Breaking Dawn’ by Stephenie Meyer somehow infringes on an alleged book by someone named Jordan Scott is completely without merit. Neither Stephenie Meyer nor her representatives had any knowledge of this writer or her supposed book prior to this claim. Ms. Scott’s attorney has yet to furnish us with a copy of the book to support this claim as requested. The world of the ‘Twilight Saga’ and the stories within it are entirely the creation of Ms. Meyer. Her books have been a phenomenal sensation, and perhaps it shouldn’t be surprising to hear that other people may seek to ride the coattails of such success. This claim is frivolous and any lawsuit will be defended vigorously.”

According to Craig Williams the attorney representing Scott what that they are not seeking compensation, but are asking that circulation of the book stop, and they want to prevent Summit Entertainment from making Breaking Dawn into a movie.

Per Twilight Lexicon,
“Loose fantasy ideas are not copyrightable, otherwise all vampire fiction would have stopped at Bram Stoker. Neither are loose romance plots copyrightable, or Harlequin would not be a leader in romance.”

I have read the document posted on TMZ.com, and the Twilight Lexicon has it right. Ms. Scott is trying to claim copyright infringement on basic fantasy ideas and words. In one of the “instances” the only similarity I could see was both characters being told they were beautiful.

So, all in all, I have to agree with The Lex when they say “he type of word-for-word lifting and exact modeling of character and circumstance that need to be present for a copyright case to have merit is simply not there.”

The Twilight Lexicon has an article addressing this question (and Slade’s sudden Twitter deletion) , due to an audio clip released.

Wow, from the sounds of an audio clip up over at slashfilm.com, its sounds like David Slade, the director for the 3rd Twilight film “Eclipse” didn’t see Twilight and sounds like he actually hates the saga altogether.

This is a transcript from the article:

“…and so yesterday we were trying to find a movie to see and we’d seen all the good ones, you know, and there was nothing really coming out this weekend that we really fancied at all and having directed a vampire film and really gone for something completely different to the kind of romantic, you know, repressed hormone teen vampire movie we really weren’t interested in seeing Twilight but a lot of people said lets go so I wrote -

“Twilight drunk? No, not even drunk. Twilight on acid? No, not even on acid? Twilight at gun point? Just shoot me.”

[That’s like] a poem in a way [...] at this point excites me even though people think I’m a really violent and unpleasant person I actually do have this romantic violent side to me. Maybe I should have seen Twilight.”

I have yet to see “30 Days of Night” which is the vampire movie he directed, but due to these statements, I am greatly concerned Slade is only in this for the money and doesn’t give a crap about the making “Eclipse” an awesome movie.  Further more, those statements are kinda a big F**K you to Stephenie Meyer and Summit Entertainment.

David Slade better watch his mouth and his steps.  Cuz hell have no fury like thousands for Twilighters scorned!!!

Tell me Twilighters, what do you make of this statement.

EW.com is reporting that next week wil be movies week on American Idol.

But the best part of this…Quentin Tarantino will be serving as the mentor next week.

I think this is awsome as QT himself was a quest judge about 5 seasons back, plus he puts the best music in this movies.  Not only that but I can’t wait to see what Adam will have in store for us next week.

As always I bring you my post-show thoughts.
