Well, you can say one thing for these two. They certainly keep us interested. You never know what kind of rant that Kanye West will go on next or what diva move Kim Kardashian may make. And last week, it was drama at the VMAs that surrounded the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star and her rapper husband.
Did anyone really think that Kanye West was going to appreciate Saturday Night Live’s Jay Pharoah’s impersonation of him during the VMAs? (see video below) I certainly didn’t and with Kim texting away in the audience, it was only a matter of time before he found out.

While on stage at the Jay Z hosted event, Kanye gave the crowd what they wanted — a new rant. “They want to make a joke out of how hard we work. It’s fine and all funny and everything, but don’t distract from our vision. It’s not a joke what we do up here. This music that we do is not a joke. What we do culturally is not a joke.”
“I called Jay Pharoah right after the MTV awards,” West said. “I said, ‘I appreciate your show, but let me tell you about my story. Let me tell you about what I went through to get to that position’ … So we ain’t gonna have no black comedians going onstage spoofing the people that’s working hard, and helping the next man out.”
And he wasn’t done yet. He also had to bring up his wife and point out that their relationship is so much more important than all other relationships.
“For me to be in a very publicized interracial relationship is not a joke,” he told the crowd of his new marriage. “It’s something that should be treated with respect cause we’re all in this together.”
As for his wife, she displayed some diva behavior of her own at the VMAs. When the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star arrives with little sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Kim was none too pleased to see that she was sitting next to Rob Kardashian’s ex-girlfriend, Rita Ora. Even though it was a diva move, TMZ is reporting that Kim was very nice about the whole situation. She just didn’t want to have to socialize with someone the family considers did some damage to Rob.
