What a Weird Week

So, this week has been a bit weird for the entertainment world.  A few things happened that was a bit mind boggling.  Here are a few...I'm sure there are more, but here are the highlights.


Serena Williams
So, Williams was in the 2009 US open against Clijsters.  During their first set (4 - 5) (Williams - Clijsters) Serena was hitting back and forth and she missed on her 30 - 40 point and she decided to demolish her racket.  Video of her breaking her racket can be seen here.  Talk about un-orderly conduct.  It must have not been her day.  I know that in my tennis experience, I wanted to destroy my racket too, but never did.  I've seen my friends kill their racket.  Destroying a racket is hard work.  Takes a lot of force to do it.  It took Serena 2 swings.

After getting a new racket, Williams and Clijsters continue to compete.  In their last set (6 - 5) Clijsters lead, Serena serves 15 - 30 and faults for a wide shot.  On her second serve, she is called for a foot fault.  I'll let the video explain the rest.

Kanye West
The 2009 VMA's were here.  Yay!  There were some spectacular wins.  Here are the winners:
1. For best female video was Taylor Swi...KANYE WEST: "BEYONCE HAD ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS OF ALL TIME!!!!!"  Yup, you heard it.  Kanye West interrupted a teenage girls acceptance and thank you speech for this.  Take a look.


Her reaction to it was shocking.  She was interviewed the day after on the view.  Take a look.  At least she was nice enough to just blow it off a little.  She is a strong girl.  Woo!  Ironically, Beyonce did win the Best Video award and gave up her lime light and let Taylor Swift make her acceptance speech stating that she deserved it just like she had in the past with Destiny's Child.


Here is Kanye West's Apology on the Jay Leno Show if you even dare to look.


On a lighter note, Gaga had a few outfits for the 2009 VMA's.  Take a look!  She was also one of the performers for the 2009 VMA's.  Here is her performance.

1. Best Female Video: Taylor Swift - You Belong with Me
