I didn't see the VMA, and have seen only the brief clip of the incident. I hadn't really planned to comment on this because it means so little to me. However, I just had to say something when I got to this...

Ugh. This line always bothers me. If his behavior doesn't deserve an excuse, then why are you giving him one? Just because he's Kanye doesn't mean he is exempt from basic manners. Because he's done it before we're supposed to just nod him along saying, "Oh, it's just Kanye being Kanye." Please.
It'd be like giving OJ a pass if he kills someone [else] because, well, it's just OJ being OJ, and it's not like he's never done it before. (Yes, I understand that what Kanye did is in a completely different ballpark than what OJ got away with. I'm just using it as an example of why "Person X is just being Person X" is an illogical justification for anything.)
