Rapper/egotist Kanye West was arrested and booked on felony vandalism charges after smashing a TMZ still camera and video camera at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).

A still photographer was trying to take pics of Kanye at the American Airlines terminal. According to our guy on the scene, Kanye allegedly confronted the photog and smashed his camera to the ground.

Our photog then began videotaping the scene when Kanye’s bodyguard grabbed our camera — a struggle ensued and the bodyguard threw the video camera to the ground, breaking it.

When Kanye realized our camera guy had videotaped the incident, he rushed our guy and yelled, “Gimme that f**king tape!”

Alas, finally, the great Polo collar wearing Kanye actually gets a bit of street cred.  How long until he blames his arrest on racism and the cops not knowing who he was?
