Maybe this book is the reason why ardent narcissist and attention hound, Kanye West, demanded a no picture policy during his elaborately produced “Glow In the Dark Tour.” The $50, 288pg. hardcover features 400 photographs of the in just about every neon light and sci-fi configuration you can imagine. ‘Ye is apparently quite happy with how he looks in the photos and expressed his teary emotions in CAPS on his blog:

THIS IS THE PHOTO BOOK FROM THE GLOW IN DARK TOUR. NABIL CAPTURED THE EXPERIENCE LIKE CRAZY! WHEN I LOOK AT THE PHOTOS IT BRINGS ME RIGHT BACK TO THAT TIME! IT’S VERY EMOTIONAL FOR ME BECAUSE I DIDN’T WANT TO HAVE TO TOUR BUT MY PAIN BROUGHT MY GREATEST CREATION TO DATE. THANK YOU TO EVERYBODY WHO CAME TO THE SHOWS AND EXPERIENCED THIS MOMENT IN TIME WITH ME!

Did ‘Ye crash one of those fixed gear bikes he’s been buying and land on his head? The rapper just kicked off his multi-city Glow In the Dark tour and Def Jam Universal has already alerted the YouTube police to start pulling down any snippets eager fans post, like this one we uploaded yesterday. Additionally, Kanye does not want the media taking his flick according to this email signature from Def Jam’s Gabriel Tesoriero, Vice President for Media & Artist Relations:

“If this email is regarding Kanye West’s Glow In The Dark Tour, please be advised that Kanye is not allowing photography of any kind during his performance on this tour, and be prepared to adjust your coverage accordingly. We will be contacting you regarding ticket requests a few days prior to the show in your market”

If that’s the case, expect only to see ‘Ye approved footage, like this rehearsal photograph above from his blog.
