As if he wasn't disgraced enough with his tantrum at the MTV Europe Music Awards, Kanye West is being served a second helping of humble pie by Robert "Evel" Knievel in the form of a lawsuit for intellectual property copyright infringement (arrange those last four words in whatever order makes sense to you).
"The guy just went too far using me to promote his filth to the world." says Knievel. "That video that Kanye West put out is the most worthless piece of crap I’ve ever seen in my life..."
As one of the millions who was gathered around the TV that day in 1974 when Knievel took the dive, I was not so impressed with him then. Rocket-powered "motorcycle" goes straight up and then drops straight down the canyon. WTF? Clearly he had no intention of seriously attempting it. But hell, anybody who has broken as many bones as Evel Knievel has, deserves a little respect. And I applaud anybody who can call out these thug-babies.
Kanye, go jump off a cliff...and take Pammy-Sue with you.
