Will Kanye West ever get over losing at MTV’s Video Music Awards?

After the hip-hop star performed with Wayne Brady and Rainn Wilson at the Emmys last night, he ran over to the Staples Center to be a surprise performer at Justin Timberlake’s concert.

A concertgoer reports that during his brief stint onstage with Mr. SexyBack, West took yet another jab at MTV. “Hands up for Justin,” West rapped, according to my source. “MTV, I can’t trust them. You know what? F--k ’em!”

Ever since leaving MTV’s Las Vegas show empty-handed last weekend, West has publicly bashed the music network, accusing it of racism and of exploiting a vulnerable Britney Spears.

My source reports that Timberlake didn’t do or say anything to join in during West’s MTV diss.

It would be easy to imagine J.T. having something to say. When accepting his multiple awards at the VMAs, Timberlake lambasted MTV, demanding that they “play more damn music videos.”
