Kanye West appeared at the Los Angeles Film Festival yesterday to premiere a short film called We Were Once A Fairytale, directed by Spike Jonze. Supposedly it was originally going to be a music video for 808′s & Heartbreak, but then it basically became a portrait of a typical day in the life for Kanye. From Nah Right:
In the film, Kanye plays himself drunk at a club acting belligerent and boastful, telling starstruck club-goers that the song playing in the club is his. He wanders into a side room where he encounters a beautiful woman. They start having sex and then he passes out on her leopard print dress. When he comes to, he finds himself in the VIP room with his pants down – he was hallucinating and fucking the pillow. The realization startles him and he rushes to the bathroom where he vomits what look like rose petals.
Then it gets weird.
Kanye finds a bowie knife in the bathroom and cuts into his stomach, spilling a torrent of more petals. He digs in the knife deeper and then with his hand rips out a small furry rodent, like a demon, only its quite cute. When Kanye realizes it’s connected to him with an umbilical cord, he pulls it hard, ripping it out of him for good. He then puts the demon on the sink and hands him a tiny bowie knife to fit the critter’s scale who then uses it to commit hari kari.
I don’t really understand what Michel Gondry Spike Jonze had to do with it. Sounds like Kanye just picked up a camera and went to the club. Lazy.

I know how THAT goes.
Kayne looks like he has stumbled across a group of socially awkward uncles.
That actually sounds like the coolest thing Kanye has ever done.
sounds like tuesday.
Right? I swear if I have to pull another rodent demon covered in rose petals from my insides I’m going to die of boredom.
Maybe Kanye’s pregnant?
I wonder if he typed this concept out on his Macbook Air, SQUIDBRAINS!
Did ‘TEAM SAVE LINDSAY’ take videogum offline for a while or was it just me?
FUCK YOU POWERS THAT BE!
viva la resistance!

“she’s a talker.”
a trifecta of procrastination jubilation: videogum, fourfour & CO. awesome blogsom. this is what winston does, he brings people together.
I’m a fan of the guy who coordinates his grey Wayfarers with his grey suit. Commitment. The GQ Way.
The scenario.
Kayne walks into the GQ annual convention of tight Blazer-suit lovers (it’s a thing!). Nobody really notices until he orders a drink in an autotune voice. The suited hounds set on him! “You be tripping JEEEZY”, Kayne shouts in disgust. The one guy in a fur coat feels left out. Exposes Mr West as An American Patriot.
Looks like someone had American Beauty in their netflix queue
“then it gets weird”. AFTER the pillow fucking hahaha
TEAM SAVE LINDSAY (sorry I’m late)
That reminds me of the time that I got so drunk on Cristal that I puked all over my copy of Crooklyn, in my $17,9012 sport coat.
IN his next video Yeezy will get an autograph from a book.
