Gay Fish is trying to take down Squinty again.
Kanye West accused singer Taylor Swift of riding the waves of fame caused by his infamous stagecrashing of her acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. West stormed the stage during Swift’s acceptance speech for Best Female Video, jerked the microphone from her hand and declared that Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” promo should have won.

“Thirty-two and still growing up now; who you are is not what you did,” Swift sang. “Lost your balance on the tight rope, it’s never too late to get it back … today is never too late to be brand new,” the song continued.

West still insists that Lauer tried to “villainize” (His word, not ours…) him for calling former President George Bush a racist during the height of the Hurrican Katrina relief efforts (or lack thereof).
“Because [of] the popularity of me, they exploited that…That’s not what he fucking said!” West railed. “That’s not what he said! He said it was one of his lowes
