Kanye West

"Kanye West was backstage at the 2015 Pan Am Games closing ceremonies. I was very determined to get a photo of Kanye backstage and his head of security asked me if I could hold off taking and photos of him before he went on because he doesn't like being distracted before a performance. As soon as he was done his last song he threw the microphone in the air and walked quickly off stage. I saw this happening and I ran as fast as I could to get back there before he took off. He was surrounded by his security team but I got up next to him and shook his hand and told him it was a great performance. He sat down on the golf cart and I took a photo as he drove off."
