Kanye West Surprises ASAP Rocky Crowd At Coachella: Fans Freak When Mics Cut Out


Oh man! Kanye West made a surprise appearance at Coachella, thrilling fans when he took the stage during pal A$AP Rocky’s set. But his tardiness ended up getting their performance cut off!

Uh oh! Kanye West, 38, shocked the fans at Coachella with joy, then totally let them down when his lateness to joining pal A$AP Rocky’s closing set numbers literally got them shut down by the venue. The guys wanted to do one last song together, but they’d run past A$AP’s alotted time. Fans went wild with anger when their microphones got cut off.

“They were about to announce the last song but because of the mics getting cut off, Kanye walked off stage and then so did A$AP — people were really angry,” a witness tells as A$AP was nearing the end of his 7:30-8:20 allotted slot time, he made azillion smartphones start clicking away when he announced that “legend” Kanye was joining him on the Outdoor Theater stage. Of course the fans went absolutely berserk when he walked on and performed “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1.” with A$AP. The guys were about to kick it in to one last number when suddenly theirmicrophones were cut off, abruptly ending the set and angering the crowd.
“Everyone was chanting their names and then cursing. The energy was so high before the technical issues cut in, so people were really upset,” our spy adds. Stream Kanye’s music, unlimited and ad-free, RIGHT HERE.
It turns out Kanye’s tardiness cost them the extra time, as he took the stage 12 minutes later than he was supposed to, which is a big no–no at Coachella. Each band has a set amount of time and can’t go over and it would mess with all the other opening times for the acts that follow, and the last act of the night has a curfew time. According to the L,A, Times, Yeezy blamed the delay on the night’s high winds, which reportedly caused the festival to demand Kanye position a giant video screen lower than he’d intended.
HollywoodLifers, do you think Kanye will show up for A$Ap’s set on Apr. 22 so they can finish what they tried to start before being cut off?

Hillary Clinton Gains Double-Digit Lead Over Donald Trump in Key Battleground States

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton has built up a significant lead in several crucial battleground states, according to new NBC/WSJ/Marist polling released today. Clinton has generated double-digit margins in Virginia and Colorado with 13-point and 14-point advantages over Trump, respectively. The poll also showed Clinton with leads over Trump in Florida and North Carolina. In the Sunshine State, Clinton has a 5-point edge among registered voters. In North Carolina, Clinton enjoys a 9-point advantage. Losses in these states could be devastating for Trump. The Republican nominee’s clearest path to the White House requires wins in Ohio and Florida, where Hillary Clinton has a slight lead, as well as North Carolina and Pennsylvania, where he trails by a broad nine percentage points. Trump has been plagued by controversy since his party’s convention three weeks ago, clashing with the father of a fallen Muslim soldier, refusing to endorse House Speaker...

Former NFL player Darren Sharper sentenced to 18 years in drugging and rape case

The former NFL player Darren Sharper has been sentenced to 18 years in prison in a case in which he was accused of drugging and raping as many as 16 women in four states. Judge Jane Triche Milazzo sentenced Sharper on Thursday. He had pleaded guilty or no-contest in federal court in New Orleans, and state courts in Louisiana, Arizona, California and Nevada to charges arising from the allegations of drugging and raping women. Prosecutors suggested a nine-year prison term for Sharper under a multi-jurisdictional plea deal, but Milazzo rejected it as too lenient in June. The sentence was 15 months short of the maximum. He was also fined $20,000. Sharper pleaded guilty in federal court to three counts of distributing drugs with rape as the aim. He or his friend Brandon Licciardi, a former sheriff’s deputy in neighboring St Bernard Parish, put anti-anxiety drugs or sedatives into women’s drinks so they could rape them, according to a 15-page statement signed as part of ...

Jill Stein on 11 key issues: Where does Green Party presidential candidate stand?

Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein presents herself as a viable alternative this year to the two major-party candidates, who have the lowest approval ratings of any presidential nominees in the past seven decades. Stein, 66, of Lexington, Mass., is making her second bid for president on the Green Party ballot line. The Harvard-educated doctor received almost 500,000 votes for president in 2012, which she boasts is still the record for most votes received by a woman candidate for president in the general election. Stein says she became involved in politics more than a decade ago because she didn't like the country's direction, and had become alarmed about children becoming ill from environmental pollution and unhealthy foods they are provided. She and running mate Ajamu Baraka support a "Green New Deal" under which the government would end dependence on fossil fuels, fight climate change and create millions of new green-energy jobs.
