3. Kanye West at the big arena on Friday night.

Kot: “Kanye West took to the air Friday at the United Center and floated just out of arm’s reach of the audience on a stage that resembled a flat-bed space ship. But he wasn’t the night’s only star.
“Instead, top billing was shared by a capacity audience, a madly dancing gaggle of fans who commanded the spotlights normally reserved for the headlining act.
“It was West’s first concert since abruptly departing the stage in New York last Sunday because of a ‘family emergency.’ He canceled two tour dates this week to be with his wife, Kim Kardashian, who was robbed at gunpoint in Paris. She was unharmed and reportedly back home in Los Angeles on Friday.”
