Kanye breaks down on stage

This is the discussion topic for: Kanye breaks down on stage

Kanye West broke down in tears at his first concert since the death of his mother.

On stage in Paris, France, on Saturday night, he paid tribute to Donda as he introduced the song 'Hey Mama', saying, "this song is for my mother."

However, Kanye couldn't continue as he began to sob on stage.

French journalist Meddy Magloire, who was at the show, added: "He said the word, 'Mother' and just couldn't go any further. A back-up singer, the DJ and a guitar player came over to console him. It looked like he might collapse. He just couldn't continue. He just stood there in a spotlight, crying while the band continued playing."

After a few moments of silence, the 5,000-strong audience started clapping and the band restarted the song, but Kanye left the stage.

He returned 15 minutes later to conclude the concert with a rousing performance of 'Stronger'.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
