*Note:Some of the videos from MTV VMA’s will provide a url where you can watch them. It’s kinda stupid that it just won’t play it.
“Kanye was watching the closing performance [a medley featuring Justin Timberlake, Timbaland and Nelly Furtado] on a closed-circuit monitor, and he started getting upset,” a source who was backstage told MTV News. “He started asking anyone who’d listen why he wasn’t allowed to perform on the main stage. ‘Why did I perform in just a suite?’ he was saying. ‘Justin’s my boy, but even he gets to perform in both a suite and on the main stage? Something’s wrong here.’ ”
According to the AP, West was also upset about being shut out of all five categories in which he was nominated (see “MTV VMA Race Is On: Justin Timberlake, Beyonce Lead Nominations”). He reportedly yelled, “That’s two years in a row, man … I’m trying hard, man, I have the … #1 record, man.”
AP also reported that West claimed he would “never return to MTV.” - Vh1
Kanye is a genius and I think he’s great, but stop your whining already! At the American Music Awards in 2004, claiming he was “robbed” in the Best New Artist category. In 2005, Kanye promised revenge if his Late Registration album didn’t take home the Grammy for Album of the Year. And, he stormed the stage at the 2006 MTV Europe Music Awards after losing the award for Video of the Year.

Some blame the outfit. Others point a finger at Sarah Silverman. Still others question MTV’s judgment in the first place to open the show with Britney Spears.
But whatever the reason, the pop star’s lackluster performance of her new single “Gimme More” is getting universally bashed the day after her supposed “comeback” in a sparkly black bikini and blonde weave on Sunday’s Video Music Awards. - People
She looked so awkward and it looked like she forgot how to perform again. The song is terrible! Rihanna was laughing at her…and both Chris Brown and Justin Timberlake probably said “You got Served, Britney!”
At a pre-VMA concert on Friday, West has talked about Britney Spears opening the show instead of him, freestyling, “I can’t believe she would perform. She hasn’t had a hit record in years”
“He said, ‘Brit hasn’t had a hit in like 5 million years and she opens the show?!?’ ”
The title of the new “Indiana Jones” movie, directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Harrison Ford, has been revealed.
“Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” will be in theaters May 22, 2008.
The title of the long-awaited fourth installment of the adventure series was announced by Shia LaBeouf, who co-stars with Ford in the film, at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas on Sunday. - CNN
Reports have Osi Umenyiora out up to 8 weeks with a torn medial collateral ligament in his left knee and Brandon Jacobs out 3-5 weeks with a sprained right MCL.
Eli’s shoulder appears to be OK, with just a bruise. He should be ready to play against the Packers, but you never know.
I predicted the Giants to be 9-6 at best, but now…looking at that defense and with the injuries, they’ll be lucky yo be 7-9. The thing is… if the Giants go 6-10, BUT Eli shows that he can be an All Pro and have a performance like he did vs. the Cowboys, it would be considered a good year for most Giants fans I think.
Q. Maria Sharapova was in your box and also Robert De Niro. What are those two relationships with you? Somebody had to ask.
NOVAK DJOKOVIC: Yeah, I was expecting that question on the first place (laughter).
No, let’s not go too much with Maria. It’s just a friendship we have. It was nice from her to come and support me. As well, Robert, he was yesterday on the match, and today.
I mean, it’s amazing feeling to see such a successful people, you know, in my box supporting me, playing with me I can say, living every emotional moment. It’s great. It’s great.
Q. What does she think of your imitation?
NOVAK DJOKOVIC: She said she’s going to kill me. Of course, she accepted it on the right way. Of course, she found it funny, not offended.
Q. How did you meet Robert De Niro? Did he just show up in your box?
NOVAK DJOKOVIC: I met him randomly on the street. I was sitting in a bar. He was coming, smoking a cigarette (smiling). No, no.
We were invited ‑‑ I went with a couple of players, Ana Ivanovic, we got invited from he and his wife to come to the dinner. It was really nice. He owns the Japanese restaurant, so we went there for dinner. We met. We talked.
As well, his wife is a very big fan of tennis. She’s a great woman. He’s, you know, a great person. I’m really happy that they showed up and supported me.
