Kanye West Says He's Like Princess Diana

Claims his actions against the Paparazzi are in self-defence...
Kanye West claims he is like the late Princess Diana. The rapper claims he is being hounded by photographers in the same way that Diana, who was tragically killed in a 1997 car crash as her driver tried to escape chasing paparazzi, was following his arrest for allegedly assaulting a photographer in Newcastle, England, last week. He said: "Regardless of how much light I put out, there are people working just as hard to only deliver darkness. If you listen to my music, how could I deliver so many positive, uplifting messages and be the monster I am sometimes painted to be... Let us not forget that the paps killed Princess Diana. The exploitation of my image is the problem."
Kanye was arrested for a similar incident at Los Angeles International Airport in September and is adamant the alleged attack was not his fault because the photographer hadn't asked his permission to take a picture: "I put my hand up to the camera in self-defence! Here's what happened... when I left the club, I was encountered by a thirsty paparazzi as usual. He felt he had more rights to my space than me, so I put my hand up to prevent him from taking my image. I didn't assault him but merely putting my hand up to cover his lens. I guess in all the commotion the camera scraped his nose. When will there be a law passed that simply enforces that someone has to ask to take a photograph of you?
What a cocky POS he is. The best is when he cries and whines when he does not win MTV awards.
Piece of trash

Kanye: "And that's defense with a 'C'!"
Spell check anyone?

God the more I he speaks the less I enjoy his music. Seriously Kanye SHUT THE FUCK UP. You're not Jesus, you're not the fucking voice of this generation and you're not like Princess Diana. You're a fucking rapper who sold records. That's it, nothing less nothing more. Just a rapper who will be forgotten in 15 (or not he can have a Jay-Z like career). Until you cure Cancer or some shit like that don't put yourself higher then you are. God he's got to be the only guy who dick rides himself

wow, yah some internet-ass nobody-will-know-who-i-am-so-i'll-say-stupid-ass-shit BITCHES.
wishing death on a man, are you fuckin serious?
the man makes good music, wears his heart on his sleeve and does what he tells you he is going to do... i'm not worshipping at the altar of Kanye but he's fuckin right.
try living his life

I like Kanye's music and he's a talented musician. My only issue is with his attitude at times. He should understand that, right or wrong, this kind of life is what you sign up for when you become famous. People will be constantly around to take your picture, ask you questions etc. - it's the price of fame. And as far as the comparison to Princess Diana goes, it's not even close to the same league. So in closing, I say this: there's only room on the cross for one man Kanye, and it's sure as hell not you - quit your martyr complex immediately.

Easy there, previous guest. I can guarantee that you live a far harder life than he does. It's only challenging to Kanye becuase his attitude demands that his life become challenging.
And while I would not wish death on the man (thought the Diana comparison makes me an almost-too-easy joke), I will say he should have SOMETHING happen to render unable to speak or write. Dear God, man, SHUT UP.

I'm just sayin' that if he was dead, others might start to believe his hype. See also: Cobain; Kurt, Tupac, Notorious BIG, et al.
