Kanye Arrested After Nightclub Fracas

Posted Fri 14 Nov 2008 5:39PM GMT by Mitch Cater in The Guestlist
Hip-Hop luminary Kanye West was arrested in the early hours of Friday morning following a confrontation with a photographer. The rapper was thought to be arrested for assault but was later released without charge.

The incident happened outside the Tup Tup Palace cocktail bar in Newcastle which West had visited after playing a gig at the city's Metro Arena.

A spokesmen for the police said "We can confirm that a 31-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of assault following an incident at a Newcastle city centre nightclub in the early hours of this morning. He was released without charge and no further police action is being taken."

West is currently touring the UK as part of his Glow In The Dark tour. Watch the video for his new single Love Lockdown below and let us know what you think.

Saw Kanye at the O2 on Wednesday - he is an arrogant pig and I will never waste any more of my money on him! Yes he is talented, but someone should tell him to keep his opinions to himself and not use his stage (that people have paid to hear him sing on) to spread his negative hatred....

the blokes got talent but he uses it in the wrong way! like so many black singers he's got too much "aggression" and "attitude" which portrays in his fans.... you only have to walk around any city too see the attitude which is why England has become a different and divided society in which we live in. He's just an angry man like so many rap artists.

hey ,

IF HE DOESNT WANT PEOPLE TAKING HIS PHOTO, DONT GO TO ALL THE TRENDY PLACES.
FOOLS, and i think he should learn to treat people with more respect, remember if that and all the other photographers didnt care he was there, hes failed . as a "star" he needs the attention,

loser

anyway, shouldve charged him,

WTF?
