WWE Title Holder Comments On Kanye West, Taylor Swift

Twelve hours later and Kanye West’s MTV Video Music Awards outburst remains the talk of the town in all facets of entertainment.

Joining colleague Gregory Helms in discussing the incident, which saw Kanye West interrupt Taylor Swift’s Best Female Video acceptance speech to declare Beyonce the more deserving nominee, WWE Unified Tag Champion Chris Jericho criticized West for the incident.

“Kanye West takes himself way too seriously,” wrote Jericho in a Twitter update. “You think Michael, Prince or Jay-Z would ever pull that sh*t?? Get over yourself, junior.”

Early Monday morning, Helms condemned West’s behavior as “likely racist,” while celebrities like Katy Perry went to Twitter to criticize West’s outburst and support Swift.
