Annoyed that Britney Spears was chosen to open the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards instead of him, West expresses his frustration: "I can't believe she would perform. She hasn't had a hit record in years." After his performance is relegated to a Las Vegas suite instead of the VMA main stage, he's filmed backstage complaining. "Give a black man a chance. They don't want a f***in' black man in that position." He vows he will "never return to MTV."
