Taylor Swift, Kanye West & the VMAs

Dear Confused (but hopeful) in Dallas,

First and foremost, let me thank you for being the first person crazy enough to let me comment on their inner thoughts via this blog. When I make my 1st billion and am preparing to give my entire studio audience a free trip to Australia, rest assured that you will at least be thought fondly of!

Now, moving on to your fantastic question:
"WTF is up with Taylor and Kayne at the VMAs? What is the meaning of their performances? Is she saying, "I'm still an innocent; you can't take that away from me?" Because if so and she's over it, why did she spend a year writing a song about it? And his song, is he saying that he is the douchbag and that's just the way it is? Or that he's an asshat and he's sorry about that (being an asshat)? Or, is he saying that all you people giving me grief over this inconsequential thing are douchbags? Are they now in some sort of East-coast/West-coast type of rivalry where every thing they release now will be about last year's "situation" at the VMAs?"

Simply stated, the answer to all of your questions is YES.
Yes, Taylor Swift wants us to believe she's innocent.
Yes, Kanye West is a douchebag and an a-hole (did he really say "asshat"??).
Yes, Kanye West also believes that society at large consists of douchebags.
And the biggest yes of all - Taylor and Kanye are indeed the new Biggie and Tupac. (You have NO idea how glad I am to FINALLY be able to share that theory!!)

I think it probably goes without saying that last year's VMA fiasco was the biggest thing that had happened to Kanye since his near-fatal car accident and the biggest thing that had happened to Taylor... EVER (she's still a baby afterall). So they are BOTH still trying to captialize on it - hence the music at this year's VMAs.

Taylor's doing what I feel she does best - she's playing the victim - and I don't blame her. She's won countless awards (and got a role on CSI AND a part in a movie) in the last year by being the victim. It's worked for her, so I don't begrudge her that.

Kanye's also doing what he does best - making catchy funky-beats. That song will the the theme song for ANYONE talking about douchebags, a-holes and dumb people in general (in fact, I fully expect to hear it on "The Real World" or "Teen Mom" ANY DAY now). AND he's admitting that he was a jerk-face douchebag - what more can he do? He's apologized to her multiple times, apologized to the world at large and now he's created his own theme song.

The clear winner - Kanye West. Probably 'cuz I like him more and I'm the author.

Thanks again Confused - I hope that this helps to clear up your question.
