Fight breaks out at Kanye West autograph session LOL

Now on the one hand, I think it's hilarious (as long as no one got hurt) since he went through this whole stage of acting retarded when he didn't win awards he though he should have, but on the other hand, it's a damn shame when you can't even have an autograph session without some knuckleheads ruining it for everybody. If it was The Game, 20 Cent, hell, even Snoop, I could understand a fight..but Kanye "Jesus Walks" West? What's next, a riot at a Will Smith movie? mad



Kanye West's autograph-signing cut short
FRESNO, Calif. (AP) — Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West was shuffled out the backdoor of a new urban boutique after a fight cut short the entertainer's autograph-signing session, police said.

Owners of the FTK store abruptly canceled the grand opening event and locked the doors after the fight broke out Saturday between a patron and a security guard. The brawl erupted about 40 minutes after West began signing autographs.

Authorities spent nearly a half-hour clearing about 1,000 fans from the store's parking lot as a police helicopter hovered above.

"Once security couldn't control it, we had to shut it down," store employee Aron Hekimian said.

An after-party at a nearby club with the producer-turned-rapper went on as planned, said Sam Hensen, the store's co-owner.

"Everybody's chance to meet Kanye West was ruined," said Anna Reyna, 19, who waited in line for the rapper's autograph but never got to see him.

now don't go insinuating that it was all a bunch of black folks fighting...hip hop has a broad racial spectrum of listeners, and the last name of the girl quoted at the end sounds like it might an Hispanic surname (Reyna)...think before you leap
