Kanye West delivered a speech to the cast and audience of NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” in spite of the fact that NBC had already apparently cut the feed, moving to the credits.
NBC cut the feed and went to credits, running short on time, before West finished his musical performance — but West went on to deliver a speech in spite of the fact that he was no longer on the air.
West, whose support for people like Candace Owens and President Donald Trump has stirred social media to the boiling point on a number of occasions, began by telling the audience that he had been pressured to not appear onstage wearing his “Make America Great Again” hat.
“They bully me. They bully me backstage and said don’t go out there with that hat on. Okay. I’m going to listen to y’all now.” Then, putting the familiar red hat back on his head, he continued, “Or I’m gonna put my Superman cape on. And that means you can’t tell me what to do.”
West went on to explain why it was so easy, especially in Hollywood, to believe that everyone felt the same way about Trump. “90 percent of news are liberals,” he said. “So it’s easy to make it seem like it’s so, so, so one-sided.”

He will probably get far more exposure for them having done that that if they had just shown him,
Figures that Lorne Michaels would pull that. It’s long past time for Michaels to retire.
bttt
Saturday Night Live should be considered an in-kind contribution to the Democrat Party.
Just wait for the line of Women accusing Kanye West of Sexual Assault, Rape and Pedophilia.
Even being a Black Male won’t save him.
From irreverant to irrelevant comedy.
SNL is the shivering, nuerotic lapdog of entertainment. So establishment and safe that even The Partridge Family bares a sharper edge by comparison.
Best description of SNL yet!
Is that an FCC violation?
Truth
bravery
MAGA
Pray for Kanye, pray for Candace Owens.
Not true.
Times are changing.
Early this morning as FNC was calling out SNL for their not funny skits, CNN was laughing it up.
I never thought SNL was funny even back in the 70s.
>>>Not true.
Times are changing<<<
I guess NBC cutting him off in the middle of his Statement was just a coincidence then.
Thanks for clarifying.
IIRC the last time I watched NBC was when the the original Weakest Link was on.That’s something like 20 years ago.
Kayne is an experienced performer, (not for me, but for others) so its’ likely that he knew the audio feed was cut at that point in the show. This was a way that he could try something ‘shocking’, like speaking in a Pro-Trump manner, but without all being broadcast to his fans. Placing one toe in the cold water, so to speak. Even still, he’s reaping the controversy of speaking in a Pro-Trump manner.
Your description sounds like a very old, very deaf Chihuahua, barking at shadows. Lol!
Wow.... I am on Kanye side!
