Like the hair on baby mama Kim Kardashian , Kanye West really needs to lighten up. Earlier this week, on an episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live , the host mocked Kanye’s recent BBC Radio 1 Interview, during which West referred to himself as the number-one rock star on the planet. Kimmel replaced West in the sketch with a whining child… and West proceeded to respond like a whint child. Jimmy Kimmel Mocks Kanye West Interview Kanye West: I Am #1 Rock Star on the Planet! “JIMMY KIMMEL PUT YOURSELF IN MY SHOES… OH NO THAT MEANS YOU WOULD HAVE GOTTEN TOO MUCH GOOD P**** IN YOUR LIFE…,” Kanye Tweeted. And he was far from done. “YOU CAN’T PUT YOURSELF IN MY SHOES. YOUR FACE LOOKS CRAZY … IS THAT FUNNY? … OR IF I HAD A KID SAY IT WOULD IT BE FUNNY???” Kanye went on say Kimmel’s ex, Sarah Silverman, is a lot funnier than he is and ended with a Twitter-based flourish:= “SHOULD I DO A SPOOF ABOUT YOUR FACE OR YOU F***ING BEN AFFLECK…#NODISRESPECTTOBENAFFLECK #ALLDISRESPECTTOJIMMYKIMMEL!!!!” Okay. That’s pretty funny. And who would not watch a Jimmy Kimme/Ben Affleck spoof by Kanye West?!? Stop ranting and start filming, ‘Ye! Kimmel actually read all of Kanye’s Tweets on air, recounting a phone call between the comedian and the artist in which West compared himself to Tupac and said he is “the most powerful voice in media.” Here’s your look at Kimmel reacting to Kanye’s absurd reaction: Jimmy Kimmel Reacts to Kanye West

Chris Brown and Drake to End Feud, Collaborate on New Music?!

A series of new reports suggest that Chris Brown and Drake are not only quashing their beef, but open to working together on new music … no, it’s not April 1. “This is about music, forget all the bulls–t,” a source said. Drake, Chris Brown Ending Feud? “Chris isn’t opposed. If it’s something Drake wants to do and the beat is right and the lyrics are on point, he would go there . For sure he would.” “Chris hasn’t really had a problem with Drake, he was always trying to keep the peace and be positive. He let that headache go with [Drake] a long time ago.” Drake, for his part, has indicated that the Chris Brown feud was one-sided – all Brown – for some time, and worried that it will end badly one day. So if Chris really has let it go, then it’s officially dead. Both Chris Brown and Drake, who got into an epic nightclub brawl with their posses last year, have risen to the top of the music industry in recent years. Perhaps that is all that matters to each in the end. “ Rihanna ’s in another world touring, getting her bread and lighting it up for her fans. Yay for her. Chris congratulates her. Drake congratulates her.” “He and Drake ain’t got no more issues. They’re cool,” a source close to Chris adds. As far as them feeling some type of way over her, that’s a negative.” This all sounds far too mature. Something’s up.
