Kanye West Apologizes For Interrupting Taylor Swift's VMA Acceptance Speech
Posted on Mon Sep 14, 2009 08:54 AM PDT
LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - Just hours after Kanye West brazenly interrupted Taylor Swift's acceptance speech for Best Female Video at the 2009 MTV VMAs, he posted an apology on his official blog. The post has since been removed, but the egotistical rapper wrote:
"I'M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD'VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEERLEADER AND SHE'S IN THE BLEACHERS! …………………… I'M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT!…………….. BEYONCE'S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FANS IF I LET YOU GUYS DOWN!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FRIENDS AT MTV. I WILL APOLOGIZE TO TAYLOR 2MRW. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!!! EVERYBODY WANNA BOOOOO ME BUT I'M A FAN OF REAL POP CULTURE!!! NO DISRESPECT BUT WE WATCHIN' THE SHOW AT THE CRIB RIGHT NOW CAUSE … WELL YOU KNOW!!!! I'M STILL HAPPY FOR TAYLOR!!!! BOOOYAAAWWWW!!!! YOU ARE VERY VERY TALENTED!!! I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME… THAT'S WHAT IT IS!!!!!!! I'M NOT CRAZY YALL, I'M JUST REAL. SORRY FOR THAT!!! I REALLY FEEL BAD FOR TAYLOR AND I'M SINCERELY SORRY!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!!!"
The 19-year-old country crooner spoke with MTV about the incident and said, "Well, you know, I was up there and I was standing there and I saw Kanye up on the stage. I was really excited...and I kind of wasn't excited anymore."

When Beyonce won Video of the Year, she allowed Taylor to come up onstage and give her acceptance speech a second time. "You know, they told me to be ready just in case she might want to say something," Taylor said. "It was just so wonderful and so incredibly classy of her and just gracious and wonderful to let me say something. She's just been my hero and one of my idols ever since I was little. She's a great person."

I don't understand what this guys issue is. He is an irrevelant racist who is always agry about something.
Anything this low-class no-class Kanye West touches should be boycotted. Send him back 'neath the rock he crawled out from under. And that goes for BEYONCE too. Boycott her work and then maybe teh Kanye's will think twice before talking without thinking.
To understand what this whole thing is about count how many times I, I'M or Me
are used in his statement.Forget Beyonce
it all boils down to who are we talking about.
This is a RACE issue.
Kanye thinks Taylor won because she is white and beyonce is black. What a dumb ass..The ENTIRE NIGHT was dedicated to MICHAEL JACKSON, and then Beyonce WON the Video of the Year.......
Kanye is a racist scumbag who only drives the wedge between whites and blacks further apart...Notice who other races dont have the same issues blacks do???? Thanks Kanye!
and on top of all that, he posts his follow up in ALL CAPS. What a douche.
LOL. I am suprized Kanye didnt say it was "racists" that Beyonce didn't win. Comical.....I love when someone disagrees with someone they claim they are racists for not seeing things their way. If you remember Clownay I mean Kanye said Bush was racists because of Katrina...........who is racists??
Music Over for West he is Confused if bad mouthing president bush and taking the microphone from swift so he can shout Beyonce should of won that award please we know what he really was saying about swift winning. If you want him to stop. STOP BUYING HIS STUFF and Going to his Concerts easy right......
Kayne West is a classless piece of crap! He sounds and acts as if his mother never taught him anything what a shame he acts the way he does like a spoiled little baby. I will never by anything he is involved in in.
Can we say Reverse Discrimination!!! Oh I forgot were in America there is no such thing!!
This guy is a total joke...grant it, he has talent. However, he's always screaming "racism" when it's really all him. I AGREE WITH ANONYMOUS...stop buying his records. There's plenty of great music out there without him. Let's put him in the poor house.
Taylor swift sux beyonce should have one kanye was right end of discussion
All that so-called talent is worthless in the face of everything else that is wrong with him. He doesn't deserve any attention, good or bad. If you don't approve -- and we shouldn't -- then stop buying his music, stop going to his concerts, stop giving him any attention. He'll then go away and crawl back under that rock from which he came.
There is and always will be a wedge between black & white in America! Kanye West was totally wrong with expressing his opinion the way he did. Boycott his music and let him know his behavior will never be accepted!!!
Whether Beyonce was better or not is irrelevant. Kanye West thinks the color of his skin allows him to do what he wants when he wants and a simple "I'm sorry" fixes it all. He is a disgrace to our race.
To "The Truth" who wrote: "Taylor swift sux beyonce should have one kanye was right end of discussion". Seriously? How can any of us take *you* seriously when you can't even write in complete sentences with punctuation. And, oh yes, it's "won" not "one" you dumb ass.
I find it sad that this has somehow become a race issue, which it is most certainly not. Kanye's behavior is simply a way for a marginally talented producer (I don't consider him a rapper because I think his lyrics are idiotic and his flow/melody is exactly the same in every single song)to create controversy and generate press. His bad behavior is all anyone talks about, not his music. What he did was ignorant, tasteless, and proof that all the money in the world does not equal class. It does not matter what people think about Taylor Swift winning because that's how it was voted. We can't all like everything that wins awards, all the time - things we don't like are bound to win sometimes. This discussion should not even be about Beyonce's video. If she is mentioned at all, it should be to point out how gracious and classy she was to turn over her spotlight to Taylor.
It's nice to see that people booed Kanye because it shows that his little act is wearing thin and his rudeness will not be tolerated. I hope MTV refuses to play his videos from this point forward. There's enough negativity in this world - we don't need anymore of his manufactured egotism.

Seriously the posts on here are ridiculous! Everyone can write dissing Kanye West but in the end nothing is really going to change. He is still going to be selling records and selling out concerts. Honestly Taylor Swift SUCKS! People get a life!
Is this guy for real?? I think Taylor and Beyonce are great artists. I further believe that Kanye is one of the most outspoken racists of our time. Sadly we support him by listening to his music, concerts, etc. Let's be real he tries to act like he's the Greatest Rapper of All Time. Hate to break it to you but your a washed up, unprofessional, racist. You should take a page out of Beyonce's book and learn to have some class and produce some decent music.
Hey "The Truth",
Kanye is that you? Having to defend your inexcusable actions under an alias now, are we? Because only a second rate gang/trailor trash would post something like that.
Better get down on your knee’s boy. You owe your mama and Taylor a heartfelt apology.
Kayne West acted like an ignorant moron, last night on the VMA awards. Taylor Swift is a talented singer and she is only 17 years old. What a big man to go up and ruin a young girls night of dreams come true. Don't support the idiot anymore. End of Discussion.
wow...i cant stand kanye west for what he did on the vma! he truly is forgetting where he came from, what obstacles he tackled along his way...he has to be happy for his peers like taylor swift. they both share the same love and thats music! chose your words wisely kanye ur fans put u where u at now and we can take u out too.......by not buying ur music!
Kanye is one of the hottest producers, writer, and rapper out there....MTV for yrs have been jerking Black musicians...Kanye just happen to speak on it...all the ashamed he is apart of my race crap, please!...we know your white...and we will still support him...Go YE!
Kanye is an idiot. He's proven it time and time again. The only way to shut someone up like him is to stop buying his music, or whatever you call it. Beyonce showed that she is a class act. She doesn't need any award to prove she is fantastic. Her music shows it!

I find it disturbing and even more bothersome that most of the people who have written a post can not spell or write a complete coherent sentence. Above the MTV culture...what does that say about the literacy rates of our society in the US? More attention should be directed at this issue than what's given to Kayne and his lack of self control. Stop supporting his products, that's where you'll silence him. To address the poorly written posts, no wonder our literacy rate is decreasing by the minute. Parents- spend time with your kids and ensure they drop the "texting slang" and learn how to read and write correctly. I'm sure other countries of the world are glad to see us in decline, their youth are working hard in school and will become the world leaders of this next generation...if our American families do not wake up now and focus their attention on what is of real importance and value. This entertainment hoopla is nothing but that..entertainment! However, youth idolize these people, because they have no other positive role models in their life to teach them or spend quality time with them. This is the real problem! Deny this if you will, but I bet you will find this the case in many American households.
So Kanye said he was sorry. Well take your apology and stick it. You took what should have been a very special moment the Taylor and intentionally destroyed it. I'll bet your momma's is proud!!!!!!!

you have no class whats so ever and now you will have no one when i mean noone to buy any of your cds you will go under for what you did and you should never ever be aloud at any music awards you do not derseve to even have a record lable you a low classless act and from now on everyone is boycotting your cd,s hope you happy your an asshole !!!!!
I really don't know Taylor's music but good or bad, like it or not, what Kanye did was terrible. He should be banned from music awards shows. Beyonce did the right thing. If people stop buying, he will stop doing because no one will be listening. Beyonce doesn't need him to speak for her; her talent speaks for itself. Like I always say, he doesn't have a nickel in their dime so he needs to sit down and shut up.
This guy is a huge dirt bag douche and hopefully will disappear soon. He has a major chip on his shoulder that someone needs to take care of since he seems incapable of doing it himself.
Well I now think that South Park had a correct description of Kaney West. They need to replay that episode.
I am stunned, literally stunned, that anyone could justify this. Can anyone identify one society in the entire world that honors men who display acts of cowardice? Can anyone truly believe his position on social justice anymore? Does this look like an act of a man who has any degree of compassion and who believes in equality? It is clear that Kanye West represents everything that is wrong with America.
I'm sure my observations in my town are probably no different than in yours. I constantly see kids texting away in their little bubble while the family sits silent in the restaurant or store. People not even look where they are walking anymore. With the "rapid" speed of our family life matching the desired high-speed technology items we use...youth are getting being left with a parent who is in their presence, but not involved in their life. Restrict the phone, video games and TV. Make the time to spend with your family, be involved and interested in their life...and what's so wrong with a parent saying "No" to a child about how their time is spent? That is the parents responsibility. What's happening to us America? Without the family (core of our society) being the "shapers and guides" of our youth in the proper direction...personalities like Kayne (and others like them) will form the thoughts of our youth, molding their young adult life, and thereby impacting our nation in a larger scope. It is happening right now and has been for several years! Investigate what people like Steve Harvey, Tony Evans, and Peyton Manning are doing in their community to address this issue.
Don't give these media cats the majority of your time and life, the rest of the world is working hard to achieve, to have what we have in the US, and they would be glad to take it from us. Don't be mistaken on this! And, they will- if our youth,parents, and communities do not start to open their eyes wider than the TV screen, cell phone texting, and video game land. Other countries love that our kids are occupying the majority of their time with the media gadgets and electronic games. It makes them wealthier and gives them more of an advantage to bypass us. Its time to stand up for what is real in life and what matters in this country, before we lose it one day. You want proof its happening? Look at our manufacturing base, gone! Other countries gladly received our factories, displacing and eliminating your jobs AMERICA! I CHALLENGE all of you to look at the labels of any clothes item you own and try to find a "Made in the USA" tag. Its very hard, other countries are at our doorstep, eager to have more of our country and its prosperity. AMERICAN YOUTH WAKE UP! Focus on the real issues in this nation and put down the game controllers and Kayne-type trash. If one doesn't find these real issues affecting our nation important, they will definately feel the effects of it years to come!
Kanye West needs to be boycotted!! He is a disgrace and these people (higher than mighty stars) need to be put in their place. MTV needs to put a stop to all the stupidy that goes on when these shows air. I think people are right when they say race is the issue. MTV is becoming an all black station and hoiw dare a white person win an award. Taylor is young, and talented. She writes and sings all her songs. Kanye couldnt even compare his so called talent. Dont forgive him Taylor he needs to realize the consequences of his actions. Hey Kanye, try doing that to someone bigger than you like maybe Trace Adkins. He would pound your stupid, ignorant a@@ in the ground.
Kanye should know how disrespectful he was but I really don't believe he cares.His apology was a last minute decision to save face.His remark about Outkast being thrown a bone was a ploy at being a martyr.Outkast never barked then and Beyonce wasn't barking last night.I think Kanye might have heard M.J.s message last night but he never listened.Grow up and stop trying to use other people to expolit yourself.
i think kanye west jus have an attitude which he need to change please kanye get real.
I am so shocked by Kanye West behavior and I don't believe " I apologize" will ever be enough to make-up for embarassing and denying Taylor her moment. He should really do a reality check on his behavior and seek some help for himself. This is not okay! What a dumb-ass stunt! Shame on him and any of his supporters.
You Arrogant, Illiterate, Piece of Shit, Racist Black Mofo. Get a clue please. Your music sucks, your manners suck and your grammar is like that of an African Babboon high on a crack pipe. I don't know what crack you squeezed out of, but go back in and take your millions of Black racist fans with you that listen to your shit you call music.
Soooo sick of black people.. Serena, this guy, the OJ supporters, they choose to be hateful, and it's getting them what they want, for now...
I was 100% against racism, then 95% of my black friends did stuff like
a) TWO girlfriends raped
b) Multiple thefts
c) Never ending drama and back stabbing
d) The only 4 physical fights i've had were getting jumped by black friends, every time it was because they wanted to do the wrong thing- once it was stealing from a friend, 3 times it was date raping drunk women we'd met- I mean, they were actually crying for help...
I can't do ghetto anymore. My last black friend rejects all that ghetto sh!t, and works harder than I do...
Sadly, you have to choose a "Side". Civilized (responsible) or Wild and manipulative. I did not believe that before, I know now it's true.
There is an easy solution: stop buying anything that Kayne makes and produces. Super easy. Hope to see you at Walmart soon, Kayne!
Maybe the barber cut too close when he was shaving those crop designs in this fools head. The only thing worse than what this no-account did to that young girl is the reaction of the people on this site and elsewhere who actually think it was "ok". Hopefully the barber will finish the job next time. Yeah, keep doing this shit and asking why people are "hatin". What a waste of flesh and blood.
Everyone knows racisim still exists especially in the vma's so please... get a grip on yourself if it was the oppisite no one would say anything deep down inside everyone knows beyonce ,katy perry won this award and that the show is rigged as it always has been. Now the way mr west did it was wrong poor Taylor Swift had nothing to do with the decision and thats why Beyonce did what she did but hey Kayne kept it real and wasnt afraid to speak up, and Bush doesnt like black people you all know that too and Kayne I'm glad you apoligized to Taylor she deserved that .but this is what freedom of speech is about you have to put it right out there immediately some innocent people may get hurt but that is life so everyone deal with it
News channels are asking if chivalry is dead. Well - the pyramids still stand EMPTY in Egypt. In order to actually FIND it here in the USA - it'll probably take a bunch of achaeologists to start digging for a couple of hundred years. Suddenly they'll find ir - just like the oyramids - empty, hollow bur something to amaze all of us that it even existed! Go USA - we should all be proud of people like Kanye. LOL
UBER- LOSER. NO CLASS. HIS MOM WUOLD BE VERY ASHAMED! GROW UP. J.W.

That is funny! Crop circles! Alien? LOL! His actions are that of a bully. He has no humility; it is all arrogance. I would listen to Taylor's and Beyonce's music any day. His ranting is for those who are contentious. He is contentious.
To "Seeing both sides". You are not seeing from both sides. You made it into a race issue. And, clearly you are a racists. Kanye is a cotentious ignorant untalented MAN. Beyonce and Taylor are classy intelligent talented WOMEN.
From a british perspective I think that he was just having a laugh, Americans can be so up tight look at our society mostly stiff. It is a free country but bad communication does corrupt good manners
Take a Glock 40 calibur and shoot his sorry ass! FU K-West...piece of $hit! good thing his mom is dead....she doesn't have to see his sorry ass-he giving his family a bad name. Kayne..suck my di@k.
Latoya, bad communication corrupts writing skills. Your perspective is over simplifying his ignorance and trashy behavior. Taylor was nominated for the award she was accepting. She did not apply for it. When you are a host or announcer of the award, you are expected to show some professionalism.
i don't think it's a race issue, i think it's just that he's too ignorant to appreciate any other music other than pop. what a narrowminded jackass
What ever happened to the guy that wrote and rapped/sang "JESUS WALKS"? I'll tell you what happenned, all of his worldly so called advisers told him to drop/distance himself from that 'religious' stuff or you will lose all your fans....well Kanye, I would get back on my knees and ask 'JESUS' for another chance to 'Walk with Him'!!! JM.
Do you like fish sticks Kayne? Do you like to put fish sticks in your mouth??? Then I guess that makes you a gay fish! That truly was the best South Park episode, and Kanye truly is a gay fish, he proved it to the world again. Tard. Also, instigators on this site, those that are race baiting, we see it and understand it for what it is, and you can rest assured that you are also fish stick eaters.
kanye is an example of why the n-word is still used by some people. i'm black and that is what i thought of him! embarrassing for our race.

No need to apologise to your fans Kanye, you DON'T HAVE ANY! When you are King of the World, you can hand out VMAs... but how could you do that... you DON'T HAVE ANY!
I am so sick of people who think they can say or do whatever they want just because of the color of their skin. And heaven forbid if a white person does the same thing! Being "politically correct" is enabling these morons to shout "racism" everytime they are censured!!!
I never knew who Kanye or Talor was untill last night. I will buy Talors music now. never Will buy Kanyes music..
I fully blame MTV for this. They have catered to the blacks for years ever since MTV Raps! started, and its become irrelevant and the ghetto of cable TV. For years you couldnt even see a rock video unless you watched Headbangers Ball at 2 a.m. And what is ironic is they don't even play music videos anymore, they only play real world type drama crap so why have awards for videos? Kanye West is a product of years of MTV promoting blacks and I hope they are proud.
Kanye West is a clown. They should've had pipe organ music playng while he was on stage. He needs to get in his little clown car and drive off into the sunset.
West do you speak English? What the hell are you tryong to say stupid?
West do you speak English? What the hell are you tryong to say stupid?
GET OVER IT YOU IMMATURE CLOWNS.. KAYNE IS A GREAT ARTIST AND TAYLOR SWIFT IS TAYLOR SWIFT. IF YOU WHITE PEOPLE HATE BLACK PEOPLE SO MUCH DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, DONT JUST CALL US NIGGER AND THINGS LIKE THAT. SHOW AND PROVE YOUR HATRED. I MEAN I LOVE WHITE PEOPLE AND BLACK PEOPLE BUT I HATE WHEN GROWN WHITE MEN/WOMEN SIT ON THE INTERNET AND SAY THE MOST DEROGATORY THINIGS. I WANT TO GO TO HEAVEN AND I DONT THINK CALLING EVERY WHITE PERSON A CRACKER GOING TO HELP ME AND VICE VERSA. I MEAN SERIOUSLY ITS NOT LIKE HE MADE HER A SLAVE AND DENIED HER CIVIL RIGHTS BUT IF I LET U LET U TELL IT HE'S THE WORST PERSON SINCE HITLER. GET A LIFE PEOPLE IF NOT GET A CLUE.
I notice you type in all caps just like Kanye. I'm seeing a common denominator. It's called lack of intelligence.
Taylor West is a clown also. I heard pipe prgan music playing while reading your post. Your need to get in the clown car with Kanye and both of you drive off into the sunset.
BTW-You can stick a lot of LITTLE people in those little clown cars.
I am sick and tired of people from all realms of life who go to great lengths to hurt others then follow up immediately with an "I APOLOGIZE". Kenye West needs to save his apologies because he has shown us all that he has NO CHARACTER. What he did to Taylor Swift was as "LOW" as you can "GO". GO AWAY KENYE TO NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN....
NO I WROTE IN CAPS SO YOU WOULD READ IT YOU IMBECILE, AND CLOWNMAKER PLEASE WORK ON HOW TO WRITE A SENTENCE."Your need to get in the clown car with Kanye and both of you drive off into the sunset"
Kanye west, such disgusting behavior! Saddest thing is that the entire point of last night was to celebrate music and award the deserving their moment, and he did the exact opposite. I'm slightly disappointed that beyonce didnt at that moment stand up for taylor.
Kanye was right...Beyonce's vidio was the best ...she should have won..it isn't a race issue at all....it's that Taylor needs to stick with what she knows...she's a good country singer but that's what she needs to keep doing country....NOT POP
kANYE NEEDS TO GET OVER HIMSELF!!! ghE IS THE BIGGEST RACIST EVER!!! u HAVE TO BE STUPID NOT TO NOTICE IT!!!! NOT EVERYBODY IS OUT TO GET HIM!!!! sO JUST GET OVER IT!!!!!! tHAT SHOW HOW MUCH CLASS HE HAS!!!!!! hOPEFULLY THEY BAN HIM FROM THE ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS!!!!! tHAT WAY WE WOULD GET RID OF HIS sh!TTy! mUSIC
If there is a next time that Kanye West wins an award.. I hope somebody goes on stage and F***s it up for him. The guy proved how much of an egotistical looser he is. His opinion should have been saved for AFTER THE SHOW!!!
Kanye is an attention seeker :P
And you guy's are giving him what he wants. There is no such thing as bad publicity and he knows it.
To Crazyone : Seriously !!! Kanye ... an award ! ROFLMAO for what .... Biggest douche bag.
It's all part of the script. I only caught the highlights. Guess what you're all dumb asses for watching quality television !!!!
Geeze, this guy is predictable, "I'll get up on stage, say what I gotta say then apologise and everything will be fine" Time this guy was taken down from his mantle. Clear channel, drop his music from your playlist, he has discredited the industry cause it didnt work the way he wanted. Taylor Swift has done nothing wrong and her happy moment was destroyed by an idiot who thinks he has the power to control everything. Someone please teach this puppet a lesson.
Jase Sydney...
If the Tables were turned and Slim Shady to the Mic from Beyonce we would have had Sharpton and Jesse Jackson all over the news today calling in racial. Where are they today?
We have not heard a word yet?
As George Carlin would say " Its too late. We can't save the world We can't even save ourselves" Just look around and this is what are kids are having as role models. Get Real. Michael Jackson was a dumbass. Oprah Winfrey or Oprah Windbag? Kanye what a screwed up name ! Lets face it DUMBASS TO THE MAX !
I still can't figure out how anyone is surprised by Kanye's behavior. Let's be real people we all saw it coming, but for those of you that decided to make it into a race issue that's pathetic. Everything ends up being about race when stupid people insist on making it into that! All it has ever been is Kanye searching for attention! Realistically, no one's going to boycott his music (or at least those that matter aren't). He's still going to be making more money than most if not all of us put together! The only thing that will happen is what has been happening...he'll lay low for a while, someone else will do something stupid and it will all be over once again! When will anyone actually pay attention to that fact?
To Rick in AZ: no one's saying anything because no cares as far as it being a race issue. It's only an issue because she is a young girl. If she wasn't a young girl then it wouldn't have been a real issue at all. Let's be real! Stop making it into something it's not! Concerning Slim Shady doing it to Beyonce....that's the example you want to use? Find someone more stereotypically white next time!
Anonymous posted at 5:50 pm: I definitely agree that it appeared slightly scripted or staged! Why did they cut to Pink before it then Pink is the main one all over Twitter. Everybody needs to get a life because it isn't that serious people!
Kanye you are the reason racism still exist.....get lost boy.....you make me sick you stupid hair loser...... FU
Kanye West is a piece of trash and no one should be suprised by this action.
I can't believe some of these comments these people are putting on here! I'm not a Taylor Swift fan myself and I love Beyonce's music but if the girl deserved this award then give it to her! Apparently she did her job to deserve this award. Kanye just loves and wants the attention. I really felt bad for the poor girl and I thought it was very classy what Beyonce did and Taylor did deserve to finish her speech. They need to keep Kanye out of those kind of places. I wonder what his mother is thinking about him right now. I'm sure his mother was very proud of him but now shes probably thinkin "What an embarassment" The guy has issues, what more can I say!!!
This is not a race issues. Kanye is just one of those artists that can no longer handle his sh*t by creating real music. The only reason anyone remembers who Kanye West is, is because of the stupid antics he always pulls at awards ceremonies. If Kanye were really concerned with the real world and how things should be, he we would do us all a favor and fall into a black hole along with his joke of a music career. When an artist starts relying this heavily on attention seeking its pretty obviouse that the talent pool has dried up. As shown by his previous albumn.
This isn't a racial issue. Just another person with no or little class - as my husband's grandmother would've said - a commoner!! lol
Wow, Kanye, your mom must be SO proud of you. What a great man she raised.
You don't deserve a long tirade, you do however need anger management.
I don't know why we all want to get upset with kanye for what he did, why is no one equally outraged about the president of the united staTes being heckled during a very important and pivotal speech, about something that concerns us all! Let's be realistic, i don't agree with the way he chose to go about his feelings, but let's be f###ing real Taylor f###ing swift oVer Beyonce! Beyonce had one of the hottest singles this year, everyone knows her, trust me, if u ask 10 people on the street who they are 9 out of ten will know who Beyonce is!! We all know how mtv does it's african american counterparts, no they do not always recognize black talent when it should be. That's why have the bet awArds, if mtv was fair there would be no need for a bet award! wHAT HE DID WAS DISTASTEFUL BUT HE JUST SAiD WHAT MANY OF US WERE THINKING, bEYONCE IS THE BIGGEST THING OUT RIGHT NOW, HER VIDEO WAS THE BIGGEST VIDEO THIS YEAR, SO HOW DID TAYLOR WIN OVER HER! PEOPLE SHOULD BE MORE OUTRAGED THAT SERENA WAS CHEATED OUT OF HER US OPEN WIN, WITH B.S CALLS, AND KANYE WAS WRONG TO DO WHAT HE DID, BUT HE'S STILL AN AMAZING ARTIST, AND LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON , U CAN'T LET THE PERSONA CLOUD THE TALENT AND BRILLIANCE OF THE MUSIC!bECAUSE whether U LIKE HIM OR NOT HE MAKES BANGIN' MUSIC, AND BEYONCE BROUGHT THAT GIRL ON STAGE BECAUSE HER PR REP, TOLD HER TO PROTECT HER FANBASE, AND IMAGE, KEEP IT REAL!
This is the same idiot the media loved when he said George Bush was a racist who hated black people. He was an idiot then and an even bigger idiot now
However racist you think kanye is, he spoke the truth, Beyonce is 300 times more talented than Taylor Swift.
Wow, ya'll are acting like this is the first stupid thing Kanye's done. Let's be real ppl, he thrives of this sh*t. He loves to be hated. But calling him a racist cause he interrupted a white girls speech? Come on. You all must be those Obama supporters that call anyone who doesn't like him a racist. Anytime ppl of different color don't agree, its always racism, right? Grow up. Kanye's gonna be Kanye, so just keep complaining and watch him pull in another large sum of money next year that you'll never see in your lifetime.
Hey Kanye! Your a dumb coon who I would puch in the face if you came around here. You nothing more than a little BITCH!!!
Feel free to email me back if you want your ass kicked monkey boy.
Beyonce sucks balls! What the hell kind of name is Beyonce anyway? We have all heard her real voice before its run through a computer system and we all know she cant sing. And anyone who is even watching videos today is a loser!!
Who really cares about her or Kanye shitbag east
its amazing to see black people who think they have been resurected because a half black president was elected
Taylor West you are and probably always will be a piece of shit. It's a shame that stupid F***ers like you go through life everyday. You are an idiot.
P.S. See the point still gets across without caps lock on...
If it was a white man like say Tim McGraw doing that to say BEYONCE he would be a racist piece of shit. but since we have the president that we do only white people are racist. well guess what f u niggers
If the American people boycott those such as Kanye West, they will eventually fade out of the public eye. I did not have the opportunity to watch the VMA's last night so watched a recorded version this afternoon. I was so disappointed in the show that I turned it off. It so disheartens me to know that our children are watching this garbage. Granted there were many talented acts that performed and many that received awards, but I found Russell Brand to be distasteful, crude and disgusting. It is time that parents become involved in their children's lives again, pay attention to what they are doing, watching and listening to. Our children are going to be running this country soon and I certainly hope that they do not have the midset of what I saw on this awards show. It is time to raise the morals of this country before it is too late!
kanye west is sooo stupid and no manners at all. who does he thinks he is. i never like his music. get lost
kanye is a no talent loud mouth...he knows NOTHING about music..he can't play an instrument, sing, read or write music..and has not even mastered the english language...in a year or so you will never hear from him again...he can crawl back to the ghetto before he ends up in prison.
Kanye-straight up garbage.He is never satisfied.No one is ever good enough except for him.Why do they even let him in?He never brings anything intelligent to say on stage. Always putting something or someone down.He had ABSOLUTELY no right to take Taylor's microphone away during one of her most exciting moments.What you were really saying dumb ass was Taylor sucked and Beyonce was better..Ummmmm Taylor won not Beyonce.Beyonce had such class giving Taylor back her moment-but you had to take a piece of her joy away-Fool.People really need to stop buying his music.Haven't you had enough?? I mean really he's not THAT good.Yea a few good songs ..in a few weeks I'm sick of them anyway..Ugh loser!!! Congrats Taylor and Beyonce!!
Who would listen to this idiot Kanye for more than 5 seconds before they realize "this guy REALLY' sucks!?..rap was created for people with NO talent..truth hurts...saying Kayne is a good rapper is like saying Beagle is the best tasting dog crap...it all sucks!
I guess since we have a piece of shit president..we have to put up with this kind of garbage...we have to deal with this for another 3 1/2 years..then we'll be back to a normal....
Talent is all in the eye of the beholder. People who think MTV is partial to white people are probably all Black people and are entitled to there opinion! Who cares what Kanye says it didn;t effect the outcome anyway she still had her moment and everyone screaming rasism is laughable It is a damn music award not a hot issue I wouldn't think. Every one take a deep breathe. At the end of the day we are all Americans and yes there is racism but it is at the lowest level ever and on the way out. It will end a lot sooner if everyone quits worrying about what other people say and do and just make sure they do right.
kayne, keep keeping it real, I do not believe it has any thing to do with his race;compare and share, do not put your ear to the ground, talent is what talent is. Nevertheless, brother, we could have handled it differently, but you were tired, I understand
I am a Knaye West fan and did not agree with what he did, however, I don't feel like it had anything to do with race. Kanye is an arrogant asshole that speaks his mind, if he were not famous no one would care how he feels. He spoke his truth, be it right or wrong, it was his statement to make that's why this is America. No one is freakin out about the post from John, which is clearly racist, but that's how he feels. I personally do not knock anyone for having an opinion, he just chose the wrong out-let. And seriously ppl, the bigger upset was Britney Spears winning over Lady Ga Ga for best Pop Video.
Just goes to show, You can take the "Brotha" outta the "Hood" but ya can't take the "Hood" outa the brotha! This guy is just another rich stupid loser.
I used to be a fan of Kayne, supported him in buying is music and playing his beats and raps at parties, in my car, wherever. No more. I have erased his music from my IPOD, computer and tossed my albums. It has nothing to do with racism - it has everything to do with respect and he lost all of mine. Bye bye Kayne.
Kanye is nothing but a walking talking piece of smelly sh!t pie. You can do this so many times and say your sorry. Kanye I'll mail you a dollar to go buy some talent and some extra change for some class. Beyonce's video is very hot & sexy, but wasn't the best. You wee nominated and came in last. So go buy some talent. I heard it's very cheap on the west side of town.
Kanye was an A**
Taylor Swift is very popular, she sold out Madison Square Gardens in less than a minute, let's see Kanye do that!
Beyonce is a Class Act.
oh, and I don't buy for one minute that Kanye is sorry, He's only sorry the audience did not agree with him.
Buy Beyonce's Music,
Buy Taylor Swift's music.
If I could find a legal way to finanically unsupport Kanye I'd be the first on the site, and invite everyone to do the same.
how can people think 3 chicks dancing is a good video? yes it was a cool song but a good video?
This Kanye West despises the white race period. He only apoligizes because he wants you, the white race, to continue to buy his music. Hit him where it hurts. Stand up against this crap
