Kimye look like standing joke after concert
Anthony Harvey/Getty Images Kim Kardashian (l.) defended Kanye West (focal point) after an Australia concert where he unwittingly called for a fan in a wheelchair to stand and dance. Kim Kardashian stands by her man — even when he’s picking on people who can’t stand up. The reality TV star has tweeted out in defense of her husband, rapper and running joke Kanye West, who’s been under fire all week for shouting at a concertgoer in Australia who refused to dance last weekend. Distress is, the fan was in a wheelchair, which West couldn’t see from the stage. “Kanye never questioned anyone in a wheelchair to stand up and the audience videos show that,” Kardashian said of the video, which shows West stopping the concert for nearly three minutes and threatening to have the handicapped man removed from the show. “He questioned for everyone to stand up & dance UNLESS they were in a wheelchair,” says Kardashian. Mmm… not quite, Kim. After one of West’s personal security men went into the audience and confirmed the seated fan was physically unable to stand, the “Jesus Walks” rapper quieted the roaring mob that had taken to chanting “stand up,” and continued the show.
Splash News Rihanna sizzles up the waters off Barbados. RIHANNA: CBS IS OUT OF BOUNDS
Rihanna relaxed in Barbados after tackling CBS for nixing her song “Run This Town” from the intro of Thursday night’s football game featuring the Baltimore Ravens. The NFL had indefinetly suspended Ray Rice, a member of the team, over domestic abuse charges, and the pregame show was far more sober than formerly plotted. “CBS you pulled my song last week, now you wanna slide it back in this Thursday?” tweeted Rihanna, herself a victim of domestic abuse. “NO, f— you! Y’all are sad for penalizing me for this.” CBS has scrapped plans to use RiRi’s tune for the remainder of the season.
