London, November 13 (ANI): Ten-time Grammy Award-winning Kanye West has expressed his scepticism on MTVs choice of Award winners.
The rap mogul shook his head in disbelief as winners, such as Britney Spears and Jared Leto, were announced at the American and British award ceremonies this year.
Kanye had his rant at the launch of 808s & Heartbreak, his new album, before the first of his dazzling show at Londons O2 Arena on November 11.
Britney Spears over Rihanna? Are you serious? the Sun quoted him as saying.
I mean f****** Jared Leto? Hes my boy but he shouldnt have won over some of those other artists, he added.
The 31-year-old singer, who MTV received the Ultimate Urban award after being voted as the audiences favourite, further claimed he won only since hed decided to show up.
He said: Then this year, just because I was there, I won best urban act. (ANI)
