15 Times Kanye West broke the internet (With Pictures)

14. Beef with George Bush – 2005

His first really huge controversy came when he decided to pick a fight with George Bush, the then-President, in 2005. It was at a benefit concert for Hurricane Katrina victims that Kanye was supposed to read from a script alongside Mike Myers. He deviated off-script to express his feelings about the way black minorities had suffered in the wake of the disaster. Although Myers continued to read the script, Kanye waited for his next turn to speak and then said, “George Bush doesn’t care about black people.” Bush was predictably displeased, and described it as one of the most “disgusting moments” of his time in office
