Kanye West Arrested At LAX

We love it here at PointNiner when celebs do stupid things at airports, simply for the fact it makes for easy cannon fodder. Rapper Kanye West is now doing his part for this blog by getting himself arrested at LAX airport yesterday due to an altercation with the paparazzi. West and his manager Don Crowley were taken into custody by airport police after they smashed a paparazzo’s camera on the floor of the terminal. Both were booked for investigation of felony vandalism, however prosecutors have yet to determine what charges they might face. Some witnesses were claiming it was an act as self defense as paparazzi typically stalk celebrities at LAX hoping to get that candid shot. Both were released later that day. Below is raw video from the celeb site TMZ that shows the smashing and altercation. Unfortunately, it doesn't show what led up to the incident. Either way, Kanye West, who is already known for his temper tantrums, has failed to impress anyone here at PointNiner with this escapade. What do you think?

Vend-A-Gadget: Best Buy Vending Machines Coming To Airports

If you've purchased a new cell phone from the Best Buy Express vending machine at the DFW airport recently, you may be able to buy yourself a bluetooth headset to go with it the next time you have a layover in Atlanta. Best Buy, in partnership with ZoomSystems, has announced their intentions of adding a machine there as well as Boston, Dallas, Houston, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Minneapolis and San Francisco by September 1st. Could there be a more perfect marketing strategy? Beautiful gadgety goodness tempting you from behind glass while you wait for your connection that has already been delayed twice. I don't see a PS3 sitting on one of those rotating corkscrews though.
