Even though I am no Taylor fan, I have never seen anything so rude in my life.
Wow, I can't believe someone would do this.


19 year old Taylor Swift gets up on stage to accept her award. Kanye West rushed on stage, grabs the mic off her and shouts out I’ma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time!”. He then hops off when the audience begins to boo him.

Watch below...

How disrespectful. Thoughts?

Edit: This happened at the VMA's by the way ...

That was just rude. I can't believe he'd do that in front of all of those people and ruin her moment like that. This isn't the first award show West has caused a "disturbance" at, though, was it? What a maniac. I felt bad for Taylor.

And speaking of the VMA music awards, what was up with Lady Gaga's performance? Pink did an amazing job, but Lady Gaga was just scary with all that blood gushing everywhere.

He's apologised on his blog:

Well ... at least he has amazing grammar.

Apparently the guy was drunk off his head but that's no excuse.

And yeah, it's not the first time he's done something like this. I remember when he didn't win an award (can't remember when or which one) but he ranted and raved about it and even blamed his not winning on race! Tbh...

I saw the apology but tbh... His excuses are lame. He's a music critic? Whatever Kanye.

That was tough for Taylor, I'll bet. I feel terrible that her special night was made into something that embarrassing, and I feel bad for Beyonce, too. (Though I'm glad she was kind enough to cut down her acceptance speech to give Taylor a second try.)

However, what's with all this hostility towards Kanye? Yes, he was rude, and yes, he was a jerk, and yes, he should *not* have done something like that, but he seems really apologetic about it. I was watching the Jay Leno show the other night, Kanye was a guest. He was nearly in tears talking about it. (Maybe you guys saw that. Was it just me, or did you think it was sort of low for Jay to be asking questions like, "What do you think your mother would say?" when he knew Kanye was very close to his mother when she was alive?)

I mean, I'm sure I've done things that are just that stupid and hurtful, only it wasn't shown around the world. So I think that Taylor should (probably will, or maybe she has already) forgive Kanye for what he did, 'cause we all have our moments of stupidity, and I think she knows that.

I agreed that it was really rude. Taylor Swift deserved that award, and I think Kanye should learn to control himself. But at least he apologized.
Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

I totally agree. I'm not a fan of Kanye West nor Taylor Swift, so their music and their star lives don't really phase me; but when people all over the place are slamming this guy over and over and over (and over) for a mistake he already apologized for three times...

Enough is enough? It's in the past. Swift got over it. Why can't everyone else?

It's because it isn't the first time he's done this.
MTV Europe music awards?
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15536834/

and... When the Dixie Chicks won a 2007 Grammy, he ranted about it.
"
How does Gnarls Barkley not walk away with album of the year or song of the year?
I looked to see, though, right when Dixie Chicks won. I said 'Do you want me to run up on stage? I don't care. I'll run up on stage for you and be like, oh no, Gnarls Barkley should have won."



The reasons he's profusely is because he's getting alot of flak for it, as Miley Cyrus so rightly said.

People who have publicly spoke out against Kanye
Pink
50 Cent
Miley Cyrus
Perez Hilton
Tim McGraw
Donalds Trump
President Barack Obama.
The list goes on...
Enough said.

Even more so. If he's done it before, it should be even easier to get over. Know that he's done it before. He did it now. And he'll do it again.

He got his knocks for it, and when he does it again he'll get knocked again, but holding a forever grudge against the guy when the actual victim has already forgiven him is just... weird? :P

If he keeps it up, eventually people will just tune him out, he'll lose his career, his money, his fans. For now, however, life moves on... 'Nuff said.

Do you like fishsticks?

I know, right? It looks like the only person losing here is Kanye, and the people he bashes would be temporarily hurt, but probably get over it. Though I seriously think Kanye is going to change this time. It appears he's had enough of a wake-up call.
I have to admit, I'm no fan of Kanye West, but I feel sort of bad for him when I see all these celebrities twittering blatant *profanity* about him. Like, seriously, good for you for sticking up for Taylor and all that, but you don't need to be so harsh just to make a point.

My point exactly! Jumping on the "I hate Kanye" bandwagon doesn't make you look any cooler.
