It kicked off with a triumphant performance at the VMAs with his new single “Love Lockdown” and ended with him being cuffed and booked after a run-in with paparazzi at LAX. In between, a couple e-tailers discovered that it looks like Kanye will be releasing a new album December 16th. We were all over the VMAs with a live blog, a spot on the red carpet and a backstage pass. We also talked with Panic At the Disco, Kid Rock and Paramore, plus sat down with host Russell Brand. Oasis’ Noel Gallagher was the victim of an onstage attack in Toronto. Noel suffered rib and ligament damage, forcing the band to cancel gigs in the attack’s wake.
