Kanye West Removes Graphic Spike Jonze-Directed Video From His Blog

Kanye West has been forced to pull his new video from his own website.
The rapper had posted an 11-minute film called We Were Once A Fairytale directed by Spike Jonze on his blog on Monday.
The video follows West on a night out. He is seen having sex with a stranger and projectile-vomiting blood, then stabbing himself in the stomach. At this point a demon that resembles a tiny rat emerges from his stomach and stabs itself with a miniscule sword. The rat looks a lot like the monsters from Jonze's current hit movie, Where The Wild Things Are.
West took down the video yesterday but did not explain why.
"Sorry I had to take it down," is all he wrote on a statement on his blog.
The video is still widely available on YouTube and will soon be available to buy on iTunes.
West has struggled to rebuild his reputation after a controversial appearance at the MTV Music Video Awards last month. He recently cancelled a tour with Lady Gaga and did not appear at a recent awards show.
