Introduced by his favorite 'Today' host, Kanye West performed at the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade atop the New York Daily News float.

West rocked a fur jacket, gold chains and leather pants, as he sang 'Lost in the World" from his critically acclaimed album, 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.'

Earlier this month, West announced he wouldn't be returning to the 'Today' show, after his notorious interview with Matt Lauer.

"I'm not performing on the Today Show for obvious reasons," he wrote, adding, "I blatantly said I'm not performing on a tweet and to everyone around me and the next day they still announced a performance."

Knight, was shot once in the upper right leg by an unknown assailant at the star-studded party hosted by Grammy-wining hip hop artist Kanye West. More than four years later, Knight is claiming in a lawsuit that West and the Shore Club's owners failed to provide adequate security. Knight is seeking more than $1 million, including a 15-carat diamond earring he lost in the chaos. (AP Photo/Kim Tumey, File) NO SALES

I agree with you roots2 but this skinhead, racist site never will give Kanye a chance. Funny how at the blink of an eye they will put up a blog about Kanye in a second. If he is so bad then ignore him.

Lauer and west are both Turkeys how appropriate! only ones been plucked! and the other sucks!

By Amy

Couldn't agree more. Kanye is such a punk-don't know why anyone would want to interview him-arrogant,narcisstic-and not very bright.

By rlnyny

I FF'ed when he came on.....

By Randy

Why would they spoil a nice wholesome parade by having West in it? He is a self absorbed jerk who has used up his 45 seconds of undeserved fame.

By crazee4mm

he kept his promise of not performing on the Today show. His parade "performance" was totally lip synched. He's such a phony!

By toni

Ummmm, ALL performances at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade are lip synched. Always have been...except for the announcers.

He is so stupid that he stopped singing before the end of the song.. What a phony. He was a disgrace to the parade and is a disgrace to his race. A total loser. He makes Homer Simpson look like Einstein.

By james yoder

You have got to be kidding!!!

By jim

You are a moron!!

By Steve

Kanye is nothing but a POS!

By Stelios

Mr. Lauer, I thought you were a serious reporter-host. Inviting Kanye West on your show deminishes you. There are many more interesting people to interview than West!

By Tony

How appropo for him to perform on Turkey day.

By JEB BUCKINGHAM

Kanye West is PERFECT for the Macys parade! He's full of hot air!

By G-Spotter

West and Lauer are both douchbags. Glad you didn't waste air time putting them on seperately. What a couple of morons!

By Maria

who cares about Kanye?? He is nothing but TRASH...
