Kanye West let the BET Hip Hop Awards finish this weekend without pulling another stage hijacking stunt…because he wasn’t there.

The awards, which went down in Atlanta on Saturday and will air on October 27th, brought out a long roster of names including Jay-Z, Young Jeezy, Lil’ Wayne, Drake, Gucci Mane, and  Fabolous, but Kanye pulled a no show, even though he led the rap pack with 9 nominations.

Where in the world is Yeezy?

Some reports say he he might have retreated to India to find “spiritual guidance” and lay low following his infamous MTV meltdown and the cancellation of his “Fame Kills” tour with Lady Gaga. MSNBC quotes a “source close to West” who said:

“Kanye might do some dumb things, but he’s smart. He knows he needs to come back from this break changed, and that isn’t going to happen at some rehab overlooking the ocean. He goes to India, he has a chance to come back seeming like he learned something from what happened.”

While it hasn’t been confirmed if  Kanye is actually getting his Eat, Pray, Love on, or not (I’m sure we’ll see paparazzi shots of him wherever he is, soon) but at least it seems like he’s making good on his vow to “take some time off.” MSNBC also reports that he has canceled plans to perform at Madison Square Garden on New Years Eve.

From the looks of this picture, it seems Gucci Mane made a pen pal while in jail. Word around the web is that Gucci Mane is dating R&B singer turned whatever she does these days Mya.

The two were spotted at Gucci Mane’s release party and were said to be inseparable the entire night. Here’s a sample of the chivalry Mya can look forward to in her new friendship:

“I’m a dog, I’m a dog, I’m a dog, I’m a dog, I’m a dog, I’m a dog, I’m a dog, I’m a dog

I’m a treat ha like a dog

Feed ha like a dog

Beat ha like a dog

Then pass ha to my dog”

I guess if you need to extend your 15 seconds of relevance, one can’t be too proud to bark on command.

As for my thoughts on this relationship, I’d like to quote a Disney classic: 

“Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast”

Her love may be like wo, but does anyone else’s sight say no? Good luck anyway, kids.
