Barely a week after tour dates were announced, Fame Kills, the joint tour featuring Kanye West and Lady Gaga, was canceled yesterday without explanation. Us Weekly reports:

Live Nation made the announcement Thursday but did not offer any explanation, according to the Associated Press. The tour -- titled "Fame Kills" -- had been in the works for months and was set to kick off next month, on Nov. 10 in Phoenix and it was planned to run through at least January. After multiple apologies posted to his blog, he blamed not taking time to grieve over his mother's 2007 death as the reason for his outburst during an interview on Jay Leno's show. "So many celebrities, they never take the time off," he said. "I've never taken the time off to really — you know, just music after music and tour after tour. I'm just ashamed that my hurt caused someone else's hurt... But I need to, after this, take some time off and just analyze how I'm going to make it through the rest of this life, how I'm going to improve."

Man, I'm glad Kanye has put his own interests aside to deal with his issues and to get the help he so seriously needs. Only except he's not doing that.
TMZ reports:

If Kanye West doesn't regret hijacking Taylor Swift, he will now -- we're told his concert tour with Lady Gaga was scrapped because ticket sales sucked. And "sucked" happens to be a nicer version of the word we were told. And not only that -- our insiders say another factor in the cancellation was West and Gaga's people were at each others throats like their last names were Gosselin.When it came down do it, we're told Gaga decided she'd be better off playing smaller venues ... and far from the headache caused by Kanye's ever present drama.

Kanye West and Lady Gaga are supposed to be two of the biggest stars in the world, but then you realize he's a whining 3-year old in a argyle sweater and she's the mortal enemy of the Smurfs in drag who couldn't sell out tickets to Kidz Bop on Ice at an elementary school gym. It must suck knowing that people would rather pay to see a monkey playing the cymbals than you two freaks on stage.

Sir Gaga wearing something horrifically stupid yesterday. I didn't see that coming:

Lady Gaga performed in Washington, DC last night and I can't help but wonder how much the gays (ed. note: I assume it's all gay people in the audience, because really, c'mon) in the audience paid to see this crap. There has to be a cheaper way to see something like this. I mean, if I wanted to see a hermaphrodite prance around on stage in a ridiculous outfit, before the show I'd play ring toss and buy a giant turkey leg and some cotton candy. You know, and whatever else you do at a carnival.

Note: She's just not all beauty, she's brains too!!

I'm not sure how a video of a mentally unstable black dude carrying a hermaphrodite in lipstick is supposed get me excited about a concert, but Kanye West and Lady(?) Gaga really think it's a good idea. Also a good idea: Kim Yong-il and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad stockpiling nuclear weapons. I mean, it is a world tour, so the percentages play into our favor.

It performed at the Marc Jacobs after-party last night, and can't we just all agree that this maphy is retarded and wears dumb crap like this because her face looks like something on a Garbage Pail Kid trading card? Oooh, she doesn't wear regular clothes and she talks about getting railed and how much coke she's done. Maybe next time she can tell us how women should be able to vote or how she helped recruit men for the attack on Harpers Ferry. She's such a rebel!!

Lady Gaga and his/her band Electric Mayhem left the VMA party the other night, and I don't want to jump to conclusions here, but I think it was drunk off it's ass. Which makes sense, because if I was Lady Gaga, I'd drink everything I could get my hands on. Mostly because it knows that all it's songs are about how every guy wants to do shim even though in reality it looks like Gargamel and uptucks. Man, I'm getting all hot just thinking about it!

In reality, if someone showed up for an interview dressed as fucking as ridiculous as this, seriously, how long would it take you to taser them and harvest their organs? I'm gonna say 10 minutes, but keep in mind, I'm usually pretty generous.

Lady Gaga performed at the Oxegen Music Festival in Dublin yesterday, and to no one's surprise, she pranced around stage like she was the hottest thing on Earth when in reality she looks like something from Middle Earth. And if I can be honest, I could have gone my whole life without seeing pic #3. The only way I would go in that is if The Jigsaw Killer told me that's where I could find the key to the bear trap on my head.

Note: btw, Kidz Bop sells a lot of records, too.
