THE FACTS
Kanye West took to his blog to defend himself against the latest rumor about his temperament.

THE SPIN|
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks some people need to lay off Kanye.

Kanye himself thinks so, too, especially after a story leaked to the press of him throwing a temper tantrum over a business class seat (allegedly he wanted to fly first class).

In an effort to clear the air and show just how serious he is, Kanye took a break from using his caps lock to explain what really went down.

He wrote on his blog:

I feel bad that people believe this kind of stuff or any random rumor that is taken as fact because ‘it’s on the internet.’ This rumor is particularly ironic because I was actually happy with a business class seat and was offered a seat in first class. A friend of mine was sitting in coach so asked if they could bump him up to business instead of putting me in first. There was absolutely no altercation in any way. There’s been many a time where I’ve given someone in coach my business or first class seat in order to sit next to a friend I bumped into. I really could care less about where I sit on the plane. It’s hard to deal with the rumors sometimes. As a good person with a warm heart, it does bother me. I’m not bigger than feeling pain, embarrassment, stress and worry. Have you ever been lied on??? How does it make you feel??? You wanna tell everybody it’s not true right? Thank you to all my fans who still love and support me even though it’s not the trend right now! I’m sleeping in the studio and I won’t let you guys down!

THE FACTS
The rapper reportedly threw a tantrum over being bumped from first class.

THE SPIN
According to the New York Post’s Page Six Kanye cut up at LAX this week.

They report:

Kanye West is a finicky flier. A source said the rapper threw a fit at LAX Monday night on his way back to New York from the Grammys after he and his assistant were seated in business class instead of first.
“He wanted to be bumped up,” says our witness. West and his aide were eventually moved to the better seats. A rep for Kanye — who garnered widespread condemnation over his onstage outburst at last year’s MTV awards as Taylor Swift accepted her award — didn’t get back to us.

You know what at this point people need to leave the man alone. He’s rich and wants to fly first class. I don’t blame him. Don’t you get free alcohol in first class? I wouldn’t know because I sit in coach for now and I bring a flask. Well, not really but I might look into it now that I’ve written it.

Seriously, though, it looks like some members of the press are obsessed with blowing every ‘Ye related event out of proportion in order to make him look like a monster.

Maybe he simply wanted to be sat in the section he paid for?

I get pissed off when I order a wing and I open the bag and find a greasy thigh. I feel Kanye’s pain in my own special way. Don’t you?

THE FACTS
Beyonce received a worst actress nomination for her role in Obsessed.

THE SPIN
Despite being the belle of the ball at the Grammys, Beyonce still has a long ways to go in the acting world.

Look no further for proof of this assertion than the nominations for the annual Razzi Awards.

The Queen Bey has the distinct honor of joining other singer turned actresses like Mariah Carey and Madonna after securing a worst actress nomination for her role in the film, Obsessed.

First of all, “I’ll show you crazy” is one of the greatest lines of all-time (yes, I said that in my Kanye voice) so I don’t appreciate the shade being thrown at Beyonce.

Then again, I’m one of the few people out there who doesn’t think she’s the worst actress alive. I happened to think she did a great job in Cadillac Records. Granted, Obsessed made me appreciate the cinematic brilliance of movies like Howard The Duck, but I didn’t think Beyonce did worse than anyone else in the film (particularly Idris Elba and his horrible accent).

Anyhow, check out the nominees below and chime in: Is Beyonce that bad an actress?
