Kanye Apologizes On Leno - Also My New Conspiracy Theory
If you needed a great start to your brand new show, then Jay Leno got it. Imagine your very first night and you have a guest booked on your show who everyone in the world wanted to have. What a coincidence. I know Kanye apologized to Taylor Swift at least three times yesterday and also apologized to her mom after the two of them butted heads backstage after the incident, but I am still not convinced this wasn't a set up. I agree that Taylor played no part in any of it, but Kanye is not an idiot. He acts like an idiot, but he is a master at getting publicity and attention and maybe he didn't expect the backlash he is getting. I mean when the President calls you a jackass, it is fair to say that probably everyone has heard about what you have done.
I read all of the comments you had yesterday and there are so many good arguments for and against a set up. At some point yesterday I think I started moving away from MTV being involved in it, but I still haven't given up on the thought that Kanye and Beyonce had a plan.
Oh, and this is the big one in favor of the conspiracy theory. Everyone has said on the record that Beyonce's dad advised Taylor that she would get her chance to come on stage when Beyonce won Video Of The Year. HELLO. He said this to her BEFORE they announced the winner. How did he know Beyonce was going to win the award? So, maybe this plan was hatched when they found out Beyonce was going to win.
Anyway, the video of the apology is below.
