John Mayer Speaks on Kanye West "Give Kanye a Break!"
Unless you have been living "under a roc", you've heard about the incident involving Kanye West and Taylor Swift at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. It seems as though the public is still crucifying Kanye for the incident, but acclaimed musician John Mayer is calling on the media to cut the guy some slack. He said in an interview with Access Hollywood:
"Here's how we work in America: We raise them and then we drop them... It went like this: 'That was messed up Kanye! You deserve a punishment.' Then, all of a sudden, the punishment got so severe; I was like, 'Time out!'"
"If you just woke up now and you looked at the backlash on Kanye, you'd think that he actually firebombed the stage... It's the MTV Video Music Awards. It's not the G8 summit."
"I think he's remorseful. I think this guy's got to be reconsidering how he's gonna act, and that's fine. We learn from our little mistakes that happen in public."
Nice, John Mayer. Let Kanye live, people.
