Shirley Manson, the lead singer of Garbage, turned Kanye West’s post-Grammys rant against him on Monday. West invited conniptions from all corners of the entertainment industry Sunday night when he almost “Imma let you finishâ€-ed Beck, and proceeded to say the Album of the Year winner should’ve given his trophy to Beyoncé. “Grow up and stop throwing your toys around,†Manson responded in a Facebook post. “You are making yourself look like a complete twat.â€
