Kanye West was named the year's biggest turkey in 2009 — and he's still getting the bird.
On Friday, a who's-who of prominent pop stars from Bruce Springsteen to Alicia Keys are taking part in George Clooney's televised telethon, "Hope for Haiti: A Global Benefit for Earthquake Relief."
West, however, has been left off the guest list, according to Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice column on PopEater.com.
The rapper has a history of putting his foot in his mouth.
During a televised goodwill event for Hurricane Katrina victims in 2005, West ranted that "George Bush doesn't care about black people."And at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, the rapper surprisingly stormed thestage to interrupt Taylor Swift as she was accepting an award.
"After what he said on the Katrina telethon and the way he behaved at the MTV Video Music Awards, everyone agrees it's just best that he does not participate," a source said.
"Kayne has to make everything about himself," the source added. "He will do anything to steal the spotlight and, well, this night it's just not about him."
