Go Kanye...it's your birth-day...oops,
sorry, we were doing the Cabbage Patch. Embarrassing.
Anyhow, we love a boycott, and Kanye West is giving us one as he still
refuses to to do an interview with MTV. At Us
Weekly's Hot Hollywood Bash Wednesday night, Us reporters
were next to both MTV and VH1 camera crews when MTV tried to catch
Kanye's interview with Us on tape. And according to Us, Kanye
"swatted away the MTV cameras, telling the cameraman and producer, 'I
have nothing against you, just your bosses.'" Us also says Kanye
kept his hand over MTV's lens during the entire interview.
Kanye's apparently still ticked about
Brit-Brit opening the VMA's instead
of him. Well, one thing's for certain: Kanye can definitely
survive without MTV.

now promoting Education Reform in '08, which is a campaign to raise
