Kanye flashes X-rated video

Kanye West put a short film, starring himself and directed by Spike Jonze, up on his blog on Monday afternoon, but quickly took it down later the same day. All reports seem to be linking this in some way to his recent interruption of Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards, which seems idiotic at best.

Anyway, the fourteen minute film, called 'We Were Once A Fairytale' and featuring an unreleased remix of West's song 'See You In My Nightmares' as its soundtrack, shows the rapper stumbling drunkenly around a nightclub, harassing women, before a brief sex scene, after which he stabs himself in the stomach to release a demon.

West offered no reason for removing the video, other than "I had to take it down". Someone probably pointed out that it was a little bit racey for a website that kids probably look at. Or he realised that Beyonce had already made the best 'Smack My Bitch Up' rip-off of all time.
