Kanye West Interrupts Nobel Prize Winner’s Acceptance Speech

kanye_west_taylor_swiftOSLO - American entertainer Kanye West interrupted the Nobel Prize ceremony yesterday to condemn the selection of three scientists for the Nobel Prize in chemistry.

Mr. West, who was seated at a table near the front of the dais, took the microphone from the hands of Nobel Prize Luncheon Master of Ceremonies Bob Eubanks and began his harangue.  ”I don’t mean to be rude or nothin, but these guys don’t know nothin’ about the structure and function of the ribosome. This award belongs to Beyonce’.”  

The three momentarily stunned winners, Venkatraman Ramakrishnan of Cambridge University, Thomas Steitz of Yale University, and Ada Yonath of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Tel Aviv, Israel, briefly huddled together before bludgeoning Mr. West with the Nobel Prize.

The bloody, unconscious body of Mr. West was taken by ambulance to Pippi Longstocking Memorial Hospital after the Nobel Prize winning trio delivered what they later called “appropriate punishment for abominably rude behavior.” 

A spokesman for Mr. West issued a statement last night claiming the entire incident was a result of a misunderstanding.

“Mr. West intended to interrupt the Nobel Award for Physics, not Chemistry. He regrets the error.”
