Last night was a moment.
At 11:35PM EST, everyone who cared about pop culture made sure they were home to watch Jimmy Kimmel interview Kanye West.
The interview was everything we could have hoped for. Besides the constant commercials (and, shit, there were a lot) Kanye’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live was riveting TV.
For 25 minutes, Kanye West chatted about a number of topics, including his beef with Jimmy, why he hates the paparazzi, and the polarizing nature of his artistic vision.
It was more of a rant than an interview. And Twitter was there to see it live. Kanye West was trending all night long.
There were a lot of positive tweets about Kanye, and there was a lot of hate.
Last night Kanye saw them all. Scroll down to see Kanye’s reaction to some of the more memorable hate-tweets from last night.
WHEN YOU HAVE A MUSTACHE SOMETIMES STUFF GETS STUCK IN THE GREATNESS LIKE LINT OR CANDLES OR BOOKS OR SKATEBOARDS OR COUCHES OR APARTMENTS

Kanye West just said he’s never done a publicity stunt in his life, so he was really mad at Kimmel, great. I value mega-celebrity honesty.

I wish I liked anyone as much as Kanye West likes himself. #kanyeonkimmel

Kanye’s appearance on @jimmykimmel last night was awkward. I get what he is trying to convey but genius or not, the dude is also crazy.
