Wow, I’m not really surprised though. I was on a plane with him this summer and he looked like he would do something like that if someone even tried to take a picture. Good Job Kanye! now someone’s going to be able to sue you.smh

Good for the paparazzi!…Leave ppl alone. This was not a performance this was 8am in the morning at the airport. You know how cranky ppl are early in the morning. I would have broke his camera too. We forget that these ppl are HUMAN! just like everyone else. Give them some breathing room.
Fall back!

He should have just walked away. I understand being bothered by photographers. That would bug the hell out of me, all in my face all the time like that. But you have to know how to act, and this was not it! I hope they don’t try to make an example out of him. Celebs have done a lot worse and haven’t had to pay for it. I kinda hope he doesn’t have to, seeing as how he told them upfront to fall back. let’s just see what happens…

Well that’s what his ass gets for flying commercial. lol
But nahh really… I don’t know why there aren’t laws being made protecting these people. These paparazzi are getting RIDICULOUS. they break multiple laws everyday to get shots sometimes, and when a celebrity asks kindly to get the shot another time… they are asses about it and claim freedom of press. its so stupid. is it going to take another celeb (princess di) to be killed before anyone actually does anything!?!??!?! What is so interesting about Kanye boarding a plane? Why do these people have to be there ALL the time?

lol. walk away? sorry but there’s no walking away from the stalkerazzi!! imo they’re getting too out of hand with this kind of stuff and the law needs to step in and do something about the paparazzi. i mean look what they did to britney spears.

ALC, I guess your comment was directed to me. I think he should have just kept it moving. It wasn’t worth going to jail for. Yeah, I would have been pissed too, but was it worth it? NO! He should have just kept it moving.

Poor Kanye I notice ever since his mother died apart of him died with her he needs to see a counceller,I notice he dosent look happy anymore never smilling. I know the papperatzzi is a pain in the ass. But like the KeliQuik said they are not worth going to jail for and to just keep on walking its hard but its not worth it he to much on his plate already.

I still don’t understand what gives the Pap’s the right to film people without their permission..some celebs love the attention from the Pap’s but others don’t..what gives the right for them to keep filming especially after you ask them to stop..Big up to Kanye for standing up for his privacy..I would have done the same thing .

LOL.. wow, he really SNAPPED! I understand why he and other celebs get irritated when their privacy is compromised. At the same time however, it comes with the territory! And with Kanye’s celebrity status, I would think by now his behavior would more mature and responsible regardless of how he was feeling at that particular time. Instead, his behavior was violent, non-professional, irresponsible, obrstructive.. i could go on. The paparazzi are going to take photos of you when you reach this level of celebrity.. thats a GIVEN. So get over it. Instead, well now you have a record. And at the end of the day we the people can all laugh at you Kanye about how silly this childish behavior was. And was it worth it?? Does it make me want to rush out and buy more Kanye cd’s? Hell to the NizzOO. See other celebs who snapped:

it’s definitely not worth going to jail for. i wasn’t implying that i agreed with his actions but that there’s no way you could just walk away from them and wave goodbye to each other. that’s why i brought up britney spears, because that’s them at their best and worst. i’m saying they are relentless.
