A Twitter feud for the history books unfolded this week. Comedian Jimmy Kimmel squared off with singer/rapper/Kim Kardashian's baby daddy Kanye West in an all-out 140-character brawl.
Kimmel unleashed the wrath of the Yeezus on Wednesday night by spoofing West's recent interview with BBC Radio 1's Zane Lowe.

West's interview was his usual combination of overconfidence — he called himself the "No. 1 rock star on the planet" — and rants about the condition of culture in the world and anger about leather jogging pants. You can't make this stuff up, folks.
The interview was a bit confusing at best, incoherent at worst. (Watch the whole thing on BBC Radio 1's YouTube channel here.)
Kimmel mocked the BBC interview by bringing in two child actors to re-enact it.

The sketch triggered West's caps lock-fueled rant on Thursday night, which even led to insults about Kimmel's ex-girlfriend Sarah Silverman and actor Ben Affleck.

The comedian responded to the tweets on his late night talk show Thursday and said he thought the original skit was "pretty innocuous." He adding that "he's finally in a rap battle" and they are at "Def-Kanye 5."

Kimmel later replied to a few of West's tweets online.

Kimmel then assured everyone that this was not a prank like his "twerking girl on fire" segment, which fooled the Internet and the media several weeks ago.
I'll tell you the whole story about @kanyewest tonight on the show - this is not a prank, I promise (unless it's being played on me)

We're trying not to take sides here, but the interview makes us a bit fearful for a future involving leather jogging pants.
