You all know how Kanye West gets when things don’t go his way. During his performance at the 2015 Pan Am Games, Yeezy’s mic went out, so he threw it in the audience and walked off stage. And it was all caught on video. Peep the video and pics of Mariah Carey’s final Las Vegas residency show in 2015 inside….
Kanye West put on stellar 13-minute performance during the closing ceremony of the Toronto 2015 Pan Am Games yesterday. But in true Yeezy fashion, the performance didn’t come without a major flaw that has everyone talking this morning.
There was already controversy leading up to his performance as thousands signed a petition to have Kanye taken off of the line-up. But that didn’t deter Ye from serving up an epic performance of his classic hits “Stronger,” “Can’t Tell Me Nothing,” “Touch the Sky,” “All of the Lights,” and “Gold Digger” to name a few.
During his final cut “Good Life,” Yeezy’s microphone went out. But here’s the kicker, it went out in the stadium, but evidently not on the broadcast. Once Kanye realized his microphone wasn't working, he threw it into the audience of 40,000 concertgoers and exited stage left.
Canadian television network CBC took to Twitter to confirm Ye’s mic went out due to a “technical issue”:
UPDATE: @kanyewest's mic cut out in-stadium due to technical issue - audio remained on in broadcast. #CBCPanAm

Oops!
Check it below:
After his performance....
Kanye hit the party scene with Canadian rapper Drake at Lost And Found nightclub. Fun times.
In another concert....
Saturday night, Mariah Carey hit the stage for the last performance of her Caesars Palace residency in Las Vegas for 2015.
The “#1 to Infinity” songbird will return to the Caesars Place stage to kick off the next leg of her residency on February 2, 2016.
MiMi went through multiple wardrobe changes as she belted out her classic #1 hits.
After her killer performance, MC hit the party scene to celebrate at 1Oak Las Vegas where they only played her music for the first hour. While her billionaire boo James Packer wasn’t physically in attendance, his presence was still in the building. Waitresses walked around the club carrying giant photos of Mariah and James’ face. Interesting.
In other news...MC will be honored with star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on August 5th, according to Variety. A few of her close friends, including L.A. Reid, Lee Daniels, and Brett Ratner are expected to speak at the ceremony. Congrats MiMi!
