· Raise a toast to the douche bag! Kanye West played an ultra exclusive sold-out show at the Bowery Ballroom in New York last night, and in addition to burning through his effusively praised new album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy from first track to last, he also had some more words for Taylor Swift and George W. Bush. "Taylor never came to my defense at any interview, and rode the waves and rode it and rode it, that's the way I rode the waves of the Bush comment," Kanye told the crowd. Referencing the 2009 VMA incident again, West said, "If I wasn't drunk I would have been onstage longer." Expect Taylor Swift to respond with an earnest song within the hour. [Vulture, NYT/ArtsBeat]
