It's really bad enough that Kanye West is on Jimmy Kimmel wearing dark sunglasses and a scarf artfully draped across his neck and shoulders, but it's even worse that he's literally pouting and near-tears about MTV and negative reviews of his album at the end of what is arguably one of the greatest weeks of his career. Even Kimmel seems fed up. Part 2, after the jump.

I avoided posting the infamous clip of some Midwestern PhD student who named himself Tay Zonday singing his original song, Chocolate Rain, mainly because I had no idea what do say about it. But it can no longer be avoided. The song is seriously sweeping the nation. John Mayer even offered his own remixed version on VH1.

Tay (nee Adam Bahner) went on Jimmy Kimmel last week to perform for an audience that was clearly mystified and maybe a little terrified. Is it me, or does the kid look kind of like a mid-80s Michael Jackson? You know, post-multiple plastic surgeries but pre-freak**? Anyway, with the voice, the look, and the oddly erect posture, Tay creeps me out more than Terrence Howard.

**UPDATE: Apparently I'm not the only one who feels this way.
