Kanye West Tinkled On Ting Tings

November 9th, 2008 // Leave a Comment

Outspoken rapper Kanye West is as well-known for his chart-topping hits as he is for his on and off stage bravado. But his impromptu bathroom break in the dressing he shared with the band the Ting Tings was shocking, even for him.

In town to receive his Ultimate Urban award at the MTV Europe Music Awards, fashion-conscious West hit up the Carling Academy the night before with a gang of other celebrities.

At one point during the evening, Kanye scooted backstage to relieve himself and when he didn’t immediately find a bathroom, he took a piss on the dressing room floor. Jules de Martino, drummer for the band said at the awards show, “We ask for a lot of unusual things on our backstage rider but that ain’t one of them!”

Well now the dressing room is his!

While Lauryn Hill and Outkast have won in the past, the denial of West's richly textured, musically adventurous album puts him in pretty good company when it comes to landmark works that either never got a nomination for the award or failed to close the deal.
