The King of Derp strikes again.
http://www.insidebayarea.com/breaking-news/ci_26537060/kanye-west-calls-out-fan-wheelchair
Kanye West stopped playing a song Friday night in Sydney when a fan in a wheelchair wouldn't miraculously stand.
Someone may be taking this whole Yeezus thing a bit too seriously....
When another fan remained seated, West reportedly stopped "Good Life" and said 'This is the longest I've had to wait to do a song, it's unbelievable.' He then sent bodyguard Pascal Duvier into the arena to see if the person was in a wheelchair- which they were.
'The crowd was also yelling that he was in a wheelchair but he waited for Pascal's confirmation,' the witness said, adding that others said the crowd made 'wheelchair motions' to alert the singer to his mistake.
