I'm sure you've seen the news that she died, did you notice the cause? A complication following a surgical cosmetic procedure. I thought of you both because of Kanye and because I know you're good about reminding us about the dangers of such things. She was only 58! :(

God, after all Kanye has been through with the wreck. And this must really make him feel strange -- I mean, she probably couldn't afford cosmetic surgery without a successful son, yet that caused her demise. I think I've told you all about the physician's wife here in town who had cosmetic surgery, had complications, and died, leaving a husband, and 3 young children.

That being said, if I could afford cosmetic surgery, I'd risk it. A close family member of mine has cosmetic surgery about as often as I have a pedicure.:lol:

Kanye, may the words from your song keep you strong: "Jesus Walks With Me."

"My momma used to say only Jesus can save us
Well momma I know I act a fool ...
(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me)
The only thing that I pray is that feet don't fail me now"

No disrespect to Kanye and I was saddened when I heard of his mother's death today. But am I correct that Kanye is the star/celebrity who has had a couple of hissy fits/tantrums lately? Maybe I have my stars completely confused.

Kanye has been known to have hissy fits over getting passed over for award nominations, etc. Even he admits in his lyrics that he "act a fool." But I think he is really talented.

He's definitely talented. I just wasn't sure if I was correct.

sad for Kanye but I do think he is an idiot. You can take the boy out of the ghetto but you cant take the ghetto out of the boy....:roll:


Gold Digger, Allifunn, was one of his hit songs. It was catchy I must say, I did not go and buy a cd or anything.....

It's otay. I just happen to have a college-aged child who keeps me up-to-date -- my husband is totally disinterested in pop culture and has no idea who Kanye is. However, he has just taught himself MATLAB.;-)

Glad you shared, I like some of his music. I have a very diverse range of music I like, everything from Kanye, Pussycat Dolls, to Frank Sinatra.

Sorry to hear about his mother. Reminds us that fortune and fame can not immune us to human suffering.

If you are referring the tantrums at the London airport you might mean Snoop Dog, as he recently had one and was arrested.

I'm assuming this is some computer-related thing, but it'd actually be a great brand name for puppy potty-training pads. :floor:

No. Just public tantrums. You know, the prima dona type tantrums.

And I don't think Kanye was raised a poor black child. His mother had a doctorate and was a professor of English at Chicago State Univ.

interesting.....this prompted me to read the Wikipedia on Kanye
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanye_West

  • dad was a black panther turned Christian counselor???:yikes:
  • stated that if the Bible was written today that he was famous enough to be included in it :roll:
  • broke out the Wahhhhhhhhhmbulance when he did not win the VMA from mtv
  • my favorite, post Katrina, national live tv, he had to interject his beliefs about "george bush hates black people" :roll:
I will stop now before my south alabama comes out. :biggrin:
