Για την συμπεριφορά του στον Beck στην διάρκεια της απονομής των Grammy η Shirley Manson έγραψε γράμμα στο facebook
Dear Kanye West
It is YOU who is so busy disrespecting artistry.
You disrespect your own remarkable talents and more importantly you disrespect the talent, hard work and tenacity of all artists when you go so rudely and savagely after such an accomplished and humble artist like BECK.
You make yourself look small and petty and spoilt.
In attempting to reduce the importance of one great talent over another, you make a mockery of all musicians and music from every genre, including your own.
Grow up and stop throwing your toys around.
You are making yourself look like a complete twat.
Ps.I am pretty certain Beyonce doesn't need you fighting any battles on her account. Seems like she's got everything covered perfectly well on her own.
O Beck δήλωσε ότι θαυμάζει τον Kanye West που είναι ιδιοφυία στην μουσική και ότι πραγματικά το βραβείο άξιζε να το πάρει η Beyonce.
