People magazine reported that Kanye West complained about MTV after leaving the video music award show empty-handed. He claims that the network made a mistake and that they equally exploited Spears.
West made these statements on a New York radio station. "They exploited Britney in helping to end her career," West told deejay JJ at New York radio station Z100 on Monday. "When Britney was opening [the VMA telecast], near the end, I felt so bad for her."
West did not just complain about the treatment Spears received, but also insists that they made an error and betrayed him. He promised never to work with MTV again, and stated he will cancel his appearances on TRL which were to promote his new album, Graduation.
West explained that the awards were not given properly. They should have been given on the main stage, rather than in a small private room.
