Just In: Kanye Arrested

There are reports that Kanye West was arrested at LAX airport this morning on vandalism charges stemming from an altercation with a member of the paparazzi. Kanye is accused of throwing the man’s camera to the ground, destroying it.

Making things worse for Kanye is the fact that another photographer reportedly caught the whole thing on video. Kanye and his assistant, who was also involved in the scuffle, are reportedly awaiting booking.

So yeah I read about this on Livesteez this morning. I understand celebs get tired of having a camera pushed in their faces, but they still aren’t above the law. I’m not that fond of him anyway, I think he’s kinda arrogant. Oh well, he is probably out already.
