Thank goodness for celebrity blogs. They’re so entertaining. Where else can we learn what John Mayer needs on tour and in the studio? Or see Lupe Fiasco dressed up like Darth Vader? But my favorite has gotta be Kanye West’s. He drops a new gem at least twice a week–when he’s not shamelessly promoting new products or designers.

After taking to his blog to eviscerate Entertainment Weekly for giving the Glow in the Dark tour a B+, Kanye had to write to apologize for having a baby spaz attack on stage in Houston this weekend after a technical error had him seeing red (or was it blue?). He also kinda sorta made nice with EW:

Don’t believe the hype! When I started the show the other night we were having a lot of technical issues due 2 the heat. The 2 huge screens on both sides of the stage were glaring bright blue like when your DVD player acts up at home. I asked for them 2 turn the screens off 3 times because it was distracting 2 the show. The fans were not getting what they paid for. I admit, in my frustration, I did use profanity on the 4th time I asked. I stopped the show 2 go over and check it out myself. After the screens were turned off I started the same song from the beginning. The screens were eventually fixed 5 songs in but it was definitely better 2 have them blacked out rather than bright blue. Unfortunately for certain media outlets, you will never be able 2 ‘Michael Jackson’ me. That means 2 make it seem like everything I do is so weird or out of place… they always try 2 make it seem like everything is about my ego! That joke is getting old. At a certain point you have 2 respect that I’m one of the last artist that still cares about the fans having the best time of there lives! Thanks 2 Bossip and Perez for taking it easy on me on the EW spaz… I did go in a little 2 much on that one. I’m sure there are some cool people who work over there and had nothing 2 do withthat review. With all that said…. “I’m still the greatest!!!” lol!! Oh and I was in the studio with T.I. last night…. so get ready!!!
