Acquiesce
Acquiesce: (Verb) To accept something reluctantly but without protest.After a long and arduous year of not having Kanye West appear at the MTV Video Music Awards, West has finally decided to end his boycott on the VMAs and will now be closing this year's show.
The outspoken rapper was upset by his treatment at last year's show, when his performance was relegated to a small stage in the Las Vegas venue. West also failed to win any prizes, and accused the music cable network of exploiting Britney Spears, who inadvertently stole the show by badly lip-synching and dancing to her new tune. (Source)
Well, this year should be totally different anyway, because Britney's all better now, and there's no way she'll totally hog all of the attention again. I mean, it's not like we're all waiting with bated breath to see what kind of crazy shit she does this year. Right?
Yeah... Just in case, maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea to give Kanye his own special VMA, like they did for the stupid kids in elementary school. Like the "Most Improved Attitude" VMA or the "Outstanding Attendance" VMA or even "Best Sunglasses."
Russell Brand and Christina Aguilera at a press conference for this year's show:
I hate to do this, but it's been driving me nuts for a while...people, it's BATED breath, not BAITED breath. Please please please, unless you are eating worms or guppies, your breath is not baited. Okay, now just kill me.
Was Britney even conscious for last years VMAs?

or if you eat a lot of sushi...
Bated breath?
I got news for you. That knowledge is going to die with the four of us. In a hundred years all the popular misspellings are going to become canon and those future school kids are going to be asking why we spelled words so funny.
