Adding to the expanding list of controversial things Kanye West done in his career, he\u2019s recently been reported to have told a disabled man to \u201cstand up\u201d at one of his concerts in Sydney!!!<\/span><\/p>\n

But what can this self-proclaimed \u201cgod\u201d teach us regular folk about being an entertainer that\u2019s on the face of almost every news site going right now? Surely just that doing controversial things sells records?\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After thinking about the ridiculous concept that is Kanye West \u2013 a man who\u2019s referred to himself as the \u201cSteve Jobs of fashion\u201d \u2013 here\u2019s a list of 4 things he can teach you about being an entertainer<\/span><\/p>\n

People love a villain<\/span><\/p>\n

Just think of all of the times you\u2019ve heard about Kanye West in the news and think about how many papers an article about him sells. Let\u2019s take a look at his controversies throughout the years, shall we?<\/span><\/p>\n

That Taylor Swift incident, hilarious outbursts on Twitter, \u2018\u2019George Bush doesn\u2019t like black people\u201d, calling himself Yeezus, marring Kim Kardashian, punching a paparazzo, several outbursts at members of the press and award organisations and now \u2013 apparently \u2013 heckling a disabled man.<\/span><\/p>\n

And what\u2019s the theme here?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He sells papers, gets page views and gets people going \u2013 both those who love him, and those who hate him.<\/span><\/p>\n

His persona isn\u2019t just that of an egomaniacal idiot or \u201cdouche\u201d, it\u2019s a cynical, carefully honed personality that makes sure whenever he needs to sell some records or get in the press; journalists are hungry to write anything and everything about him.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, we may not have Kanye West for hire at Red Masque entertainment directory<\/a> but we may have a \u2018celebrity lookalike\u2019 or we may have some \u2018comedians\u2019 which could tell some rather controversial jokes that would really get your crowd talking; for the wrong reasons? Who cares? If they\u2019re talking, that means you\u2019ve made an impression\u2026..right?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
