Liner Notes: Evel Knievel Not Happy With Kanye West’s Stunt

December 12th, 2006 // 4 Comments

- Stuntman Evel Knievel, who’s apparently just catching up on his TiVo’d MTV, is suing Kanye West over what he alleges is a “vulgar, sexual and racially questionable” video for “Touch The Sky.” Knievel’s health problems prevented the dispute from being settled via canyon-jump. [AllHipHop]
- Meanwhile, wrestler Diamond Dallas Page has added Rocawear to his “hand gesture infringement” suit against Jay-Z. [Vibe]
- Get ready for yet another “Candle In The Wind” rewrite: Elton John is among the performers set to play a concert marking the 10th anniversary of Princess Diana’s death. [NME]

    Diamond Dallas Page should really be suing “Dog” Chapman (The Bounty Hunter) for stealing his whole effin’ look! Everything from the mullet to the leather vests were lifted off the former wrestler.

    Now I ain’t saying Knevil is a gold digger, but he ain’t messin no broke nigga.

    What does “racially questionable” even mean? Did they mean questionably racist? (It isn’t.) Tell me a lawyer didn’t go to court with something so wordally questionable.
