Kanye West Wants To Be Michael Jackson: 'Wacko Kanye' Unleashes Rants In Ellen DeGeneres Show
Rapper Kanye West's seven minutes monologue in Ellen DeGeneres show left the host speechless. The bizarre rant not only confused DeGeneres but also the audience.
It all started when DeGeneres asked Kim Kardashian's husband how he felt about the ongoing Twitter rant. Initially, the rapper said that he had no regrets with the social media issues and rejected the idea when DeGeneres suggested him to have a board of directors to handle his social media accounts.
DeGeneres who then brought the Mark Zuckerberg topic up told West that he can try to reach out the Facebook founder on his own social media platform than on Twitter. West who accepted that it was a good idea started his monologue with bizarre gestures.
"I understand Mark Zuckerberg doesn't use Twitter, even though I have had dinner with him and his wife and told them about how I wanted to help the world, and he said he'd help me, and blah blah blah," West began. "That's how it feels, though, it's like the pursuit of happiness, it's like you're trying to sell this bone density machine, you know in that movie. ... " he added, reported US Magazine.
The rapper continued that he has a number of ideas to make the world a better place for next 100 years or so. He said he has more resources and he intends to help more people. He revealed his disgust about paparazzi and noted that he isn't bothered about what others think about him. West expressed his desire to be called wacko Kanye and how much he wishes to be someone like Michael Jackson.
"I have to be Michael Jackson of apparel in order to break open the doors for everyone that will come after I'm gone, after I'm dead, after they call me wacko Kanye," he said candidly, citing the fact that there was a time when MTV didn't want to air Jackson's music videos, noted E Online. "Isn't that so funny that people point fingers at the people who have influenced us the most? They talk the most shit about the people who care the most. I'm sorry daytime television. I'm sorry for the realness."
