KANYE'S ON STAGE TANTRUM

Hip-hop star KANYE WEST stormed on stage at the MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs) last night (02NOV06), when he missed out on Best Video to JUSTICE VS SIMIAN.

Kanye West at the 2006 MTV Europe Music Awards held at Bella Centre. Copenhagen, Denmark - 02.11.06

The rapper was nominated in three categories - Best Male, Best Video for TOUCH THE SKY and Best Hip-Hop - at the Copenhagen, Denmark award, but only took home the latter.

On the red carpet prior to the award, West told MTV, "I should definitely win best hip-hop. I should definitely win that (best video) also."

However, when French DJ Justice went on stage to accept the Best Video trophy for WE ARE YOUR FRIENDS, a furious West joined him.

West shouted, "F**k this! My video cost a million dollars.

"PAMELA ANDERSON was in it, I was jumping across canyons and s**t! If I don't win, the awards show loses credibility. Nothing against you (Justice Vs Simian), but hell man."

At the press conference afterwards, West was still angry over the award, saying, "I haven't seen (the Justice and Simian video). Possibly it could have been quite good, but no way better than Touch The Sky.

"That is complete bulls**t, I paid a million. Obviously it's not all about the money, but the response it got transcended everything, it really made great TV. It took a month to film; I stood on a mountain; I flew a helicopter over Vegas. I did it to be the king of all videos and I wanted to walk home with that award.

"(The reason the other video won) - That was some spread the love bulls**t, 'Oh everyone should have an award.' Please press people print, 'Kanye says f**k that!'"

This is the second time West has vented his fury over losing an award - in 2004 he lost out on the Best New Artist gong at the American Music Awards (AMAs) to country singer GRETCHEN WILSON. The GOLD DIGGER hitmaker said at the time, "I feel I was definitely robbed. I was the best new artist this year."
