Kanye West: "Only white people use the word bling"

Rapper Kanye West claims only white people use the word "bling".

The 'Touch the sky' hitmaker has insisted the slang term is now "passé" and using it makes people look "old fashioned".

Kanye West told Complex magazine: "Only white people and older black people say 'bling' now. If a white person uses slang too early, then that makes them look like a wigger. But if black people use slang too late, then it makes them look like a wigger."

West recently celebrated his 30th birthday at New York's Tenjune nightclub in June, where he was presented with a huge cake incorrectly emblazoned with the name "Kayne".

Other guests who helped celebrate the hip-hop star's landmark birthday included Mariah Carey, Rihanna, Ashlee Simpson and her boyfriend Pete Wentz.

As the celebrations began, Kanye said: "I'm in my 20s as we speak right now, but at midnight, I'll be 30. I'm already 30 in Japan and London and everywhere else."

To: MTV NETWORK, We the

To: MTV NETWORK,

We the people are sick and tired of all the crappy shows and want more music! What happened? When I say more music... I say you should casts votes on your website and let us decide what we want!

Your network pays all this money to your employees to come up with shows and in all "reality" it is up to the viewers on what we want to watch! We want more music! Cast a vote and you will see!

You play the same shows over and over again! Why would we want to see the same episode a million times! We are in a world with the capabilities of recording the episodes! I know! You could be playing more music instead! Just a thought!

We want change MTV! We are the viewers and maybe..just maybe...if you listen to what your viewers want to watch...your ratings might even go up! Just a thought again!

What the hell happened to the Vmas this year! I am still bewildered!
How in the hell are you even doing the VMAS in the first place? All you show on MTV is stupid reality shows!

Kanye West should of opened the VMAS with stronger! Stronger is off the hook!

No offense to Britney spears! I must say though, why in the hell would you let her open when she has not had a hit song in awhile! Britney had no chance to prepare in time! It did not seem like your network even cared as long as your network had your so called ratings.

You might of had your ratings this year! Finally! At who's expense though?
I am so disgusted! All that to get ratings!

We need change MTV or we will just not watch your network anymore!
