Oh my goodness, Kanye West almost wasn't a jerk.


Kanye West almost always has something to say about awards ceremonies — specifically, trophies he believes he deserves. Now, with the MTV Movie Awards coming up Sunday, West is speaking out in a very unlikely person's defense, claiming that the best film of the year was snubbed.

"My favorite movie this year was 'Apocalypto,' and I love Mel Gibson," West said. "Sometimes I feel a little like Mel Gibson. [People say to him,] 'OK, Mel Gibson, we know [your movie is] the best, but if you shut up, maybe we can give you an award.' I think that's how people feel about me sometimes: 'OK, [your album] was the best.'

" 'Apocalypto' was the best movie," West continued. "It's probably some complete bullsh-- that got nominated over it. Around the time of the awards, if you want to ask me what's the bullsh-- that got nominated, I will tell you. It's my opinion; it doesn't mean it's good or bad. I'm a movie buff."



Footnote: yes Mel bought a new home but if you want to know where it is google! In my own little way I'm trying to protect his privacy.
