Toolbag Comedian Interrupts Kanye West's Epic Glastonbury Set

Who does that?

Kanye West closed Glastonbury tonight, powering through a setlist that was a little different from what he's been doing on festival stages this year, probably because Glasto's a big fucking deal. The guy doesn't appear to fear anything on Earth, but not crushing Glasto, when assholes went as far as petitioning to stop him from performing there, would probably piss him off. Things went fairly smoothly until he got to Yeezus single "Black Skinhead," and British comedian Lee Nelson ran out onstage to dance for a few seconds before getting snatched off by venue security. Ye didn't seem pressed. He bounced back, performing "Touch the Sky," "All of the Lights" and "The Good Life" flying in a lighted cherrypicker hundreds of feet over the crowd, launching into a singalong of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" before "Can't Tell Me Nothing" and proclaiming himself "the greatest living rock star on the planet" during "Gold Digger." Nelson took credit for the stunt on his Twitter. Check out the video below.
