WTF: Kanye West Stops Concert Because Handicapped Fans Didn’t Stand Up

There’s a reason why Kanye West is famed for his “less than favourable” behaviour. Nevermind that he probably is a loving husband to Kim K and doting father to North West, there has been instances where he hasn’t been the nicest.

To jog your memory, perhaps you’d like to recall that one time where Kanye West stormed the MTV VMA stage and interrupted Taylor Swift‘s acceptance speech for “Best Female Video”.

Yup, that one.

And now, it seems that he’s not the nicest to his fans either!

Last Friday, he halted midway through one of his “Yeezus” tour concerts at Quantas Credit Union Arena in Sydney and asked two fans to join the crowd in standing up. Little did he know, the fans that he pointed out was handicapped as one was in a wheelchair and the other had a prosthetic limb. But when he singled them out, they were initially booed by the rest of the audience for seemingly refusing to get up.

It didn’t help that Kanye said into the mic and to the crowd:

I decided I can’t do this song, I can’t do the rest of the show until everybody stands up. Unless you got a handicap pass and you get special parking and sh-t.

This is the longest I’ve had to wait to do a song, it’s unbelievable!

He eventually realised it of course when he dispatched a member of his security team to check it out. Although we’re not sure why you need a security personnel to “check” unnecessary things “out” such as standing up for a song? Watch the video here:
