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.

Sounds like Dario G. Must have gotten the lyrics off a cereal packet or children's book. Talentless f*u*c*k*w*i*t can't even sing - it's actually painful listening to him - unfortunately, there are also people stupid enough to buy his crap music which he and every other rap artist just pinches from somewhere else and calls their own!

@mikelking2410 Self adoration? Self loving? More like self confidence!!! Who are you to take a swipe @ someone who has confidence??? I'm sure if you where as SUCCESSFULL as he is you would be confident. I went to Mr West's concert on Thursday night. You know what he told me to say to all the haters? F.U.C.K. Y.O.U.

I love the fact that it won't be confirmed. I was there and did not see him, it has to be questioned why he would have gone to a tiny bar in Newcastle after his gig, and worse why he would have seen and fourght a photographer, as no-one else saw one!
Questionable. maybe that explains why he was 2 hours late on stage
