Just Breaking, "The Insider" has confirmed Kanye West has been released by the LAPD. The rap star has posted $20,000 bail. We've also learned he has a date in court, October 2nd.

"The Insider" has also obtained Kanye's booking sheet following his arrest at LAX this morning. Kanye was held on a felony vandalism charge.

"The Insider" has confirmed that Kanye and a member of his entourage were arrested at LAX at 7:51am on charges of vandalism.

Initial reports indicate it involves a paparazzi and his video camera that is reportedly worth more than $10,000.

In addition to vandalism, the member of Kanye's entourage was arrested on charges of battery.

The Associated Press now reports that the entourage member was, in fact, his bodyguard and that the incident happened before Kanye and his manager cleared security at the airport.

  • Instead of focusing on the individual that did the act; I think more focus should be placed on the boundaries that are not in place for invasion of privacy. I welcome the laws that are currently being discussed to govern the paparazzi.

  • His actions I'm sure were warranted and we don't see what was said or the actions of the photographer prior to the incident being taped. Paparazzi think they have a god given right to invade the privacy of others...

  • How does that make any sense at all? Because he snapped and and freaked on a camera guy (And he's the first to do that??) how about before you say anything again, you think about it first. You moron. Kids shouldn't allow screw ups like you to ever...

  • Wow, how pathetic -- rappers are scum. You have all that money, and yet no dignity or respect. I hope the cameraman sues Kanye and takes away all his money -- he doesn't deserve the money he "earned" by "Rapping" about non sense.

  • I guess he was arrested because George Bush doesn't care about black people.

  • This won't stop the paparazzi. It will only bring them back. They live for moments like this. It's what makes their careers so interesting. As for Kanye, I'm not a big fan but, who knows? It's only a matter of time until he's a wash-up anyway.
