Kanye West Storms the VMAs Stage During Taylor Swift’s Speech

Leave it to Kanye West to produce one of the most infamous moments in VMAs history before the 2009 show was even an hour old. It happened after Taylor Swift’s victory in the Best Female Video category for “You Belong With Me,” which beat out Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It).” Just moments after Swift accepted the Moonman and began her acceptance speech, West stormed the stage, taking the microphone from Swift to announce Beyoncé deserved the award.

VMAs 2009 in photos: Kanye’s stage invasion, Madonna pays tribute to MJ and more.

“Thank you so much!” Swift began. “I always dreamed about what it would be like to maybe win one of these some day, but I never actually thought it would have happened. I sing country music so thank you so much for giving me a chance to win a VMA award.”

Before she could continue, West broke in. “Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’ll let you finish, but Beyoncé has one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time!” Kanye shouted to a mortified Swift and the speechless audience. And as quickly as he ran onstage — MTV cut away to show Pink applauding Taylor, and when they flashed back to Swift, West already had the mic in his hand — he was off, leaving a shocked Swift in his wake.

Everyone at the Radio City Music Hall looked stunned, as the cameras captured an astonished and horrified Beyoncé still in her seat. Soon after, the audience gave a standing ovation in support of Swift. To add insult to injury, after Kanye handed the microphone back to Swift, her time was up, and MTV cut to a video featuring Tracy Morgan and Eminem. Minutes after the incident went down, MTV Chairman and CEO Judy McGrath was feverishly typing into her phone when Diddy came up for a chat. Topic of conversation? What else but West. “Like Diddy just said, ‘It’s rock & roll,’ ” McGrath commented to RS. “And the applause for [Taylor] will be louder.”

Look back at Kanye’s other awards-show outbursts, and the most famous stage invasion in rock history.

According to sources at the VMAs, Swift was seen hysterically crying backstage after Kanye’s outburst, making it convenient that the first part of her performance of “You Belong to Me,” which immediately followed the acceptance speech, was prerecorded. (Swift emerged from the subway exit and performed atop a cab outside the venue live.) Wale, who is serving as MC for the house band, told the crowd, “You can’t fault a man for speaking his mind,” which was promptly met by boos from the Radio City Music Hall crowd. According to our sources inside Radio City, Kanye was promptly tossed from the VMAs after interrupting Swift’s speech and headed to West Village haunt the Spotted Pig. “I’m assuming based on the amount of Hennessey I saw [West] drink that he was not all there,” Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump told Rolling Stone backstage at the show.

Near the end of the show, Beyoncé invited Swift onstage to have the acceptance speech she deserved while picking up her own Moonman for Video of the Year. Later, West posted an apology on his blog:

“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!!”

Wow. Could Kanye be a bigger dick?? And nice hair. My 13 year-old nephew gets his buzzed similarly, yet even he knows when enough detailing is enough.

Kanye was a complete jack ass! He should publicly apologize to Taylor Swift! The MC is an idiot and the prayer to the devil was the last straw! No class whatsoever MTV!!

Kat | 9/13/2009, 10:25 pm EST

Atrocious. Unprofessional. Unacceptable. Everyone I know has already made a statement that they will not longer support Kanye West, in any manner whatsoever. And, while Beyonce did look shocked, she didn’t look disappointed. And for what it’s worth, Taylor Swift won righteously.

Michelle | 9/13/2009, 10:26 pm EST

This is horrible! How rude of Kanye West to make such an insulting comment in a such a public place. He has no respect for anyone but himself. Beyonce and Taylor Swift come from two different genres – pop/county and R&B. You can’t rate a video the best of all time when they aren’t even the same category. Shame on you Kanye!

lol | 9/13/2009, 10:26 pm EST

kanye is da best

Wow, really? I know Beyoncé is great and all, but if Taylor Swift won, then she won. No one deserves that no matter who wins.

allegra | 9/13/2009, 10:26 pm EST

omg i cant believe he did that even if beyonce had the best video [and everybody knew that]he shouldn’t did that to somebody that was rude of him to say that in front of the whole world.i feel so sorry for taylor i hope she feels better soon

Florida Man | 9/13/2009, 10:26 pm EST

Kanye West is one classless jerk to steal Taylor’s mike. This was Taylor’s moment and this loser stole her moment. Even the crowd thought this was as low as you can get. Taylor is all class, and Kanye should apologize, which he has not class to do.

Jazzmen Tate | 9/13/2009, 10:27 pm EST

Carolyn B | 9/13/2009, 10:28 pm EST

Holy cow. I have been a supporter of Kanye West since he first broke out onto the music scene. Every time he screwed up by punching someone out or running off his mouth, I still supported him. When his mother died, I was sad for him. I just thought he was a fellow artist who just felt understood and frustrated. Being an artist myself, I know what it is like to be frustrated and want to sound off because I’ve felt understood. BUT ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

I never voice my opinion so strongly against a great artist. I am tonight. I had to get this out. I stopped watching the regular MTV channel and tuned into the other MTV channels to watch music videos from time to time. I go to MTV.com sometimes to view the newest music videos. After seeing an advertisement online today about Janet Jackson performing and Madonna introducing her, I decided to tune in to the regular MTV channel for a while tonight. What I saw tonight hurt my heart incredibly. I am not sure why I am reacting so strongly to what I saw, but I am.

Kanye West jumped up on stage and stole Taylor Swift’s moment.

How dare you Kanye West steal someone’s first moment!!!!!!!!!!!! I am a fan of all artist’s in the world whether I agree with their agenda or not, but this is horrible. Do I know these people personally. No. But. That. Is. Enough. Kanye, take out your frustrations on your art, man. She is just a kid. She is a fellow artist. HOW DARE YOU. You’ve done this too many times. Your mother died. Yes, I am sure that hurt your world more than anything, but why continue to take out your anger on everyone else????????????????? I will pray for you. I pray that you truly get a wake up call. You have a talent. You are an artist. Why do you continue to hurt people with your celebrity? God gave you a talent and you are totally using it in the worst way. You are making yourself look worse and worse. Your talent is about to go down the drain and your supporters are fading away.

I just don’t know what else to say. Oh….I know….go away Kanye. I am an artist trying to make it like you were. Clear out you belongings and go away. Make room for the artists in the world like me who want to make a difference in the world without hurting others. Shame on you.

Maria | 9/13/2009, 10:28 pm EST

Taylor Swift won that and if she did then I solemnly believe it was for a reason. Yes Kanye, we know what a great artist Beyonce is, but news flash she DIDNT win!!! Just shows that some people have no class… GO TAYLOR SWIFT!!!

Kanye has to learn it is not all about him.
At that moment, it was about Taylor Swift.

Anonymous | 9/13/2009, 10:30 pm EST

Kanye shouldn’t apologize. He should just be banned from the VMAs.

There’s a time and a place to voice your opinion, this was not one of them.

Beyonce (who I love) will likely apologize and disassociate herself from Kanye tomorrow (or later tonight).

Well | 9/13/2009, 10:31 pm EST

if he want to be an a$$ i will also if he treat woman like this maybe his momma better off also.

This is a political move as a result of congressman Wilson interrupting Obama. I guess Kanye thought one good term deserved another. It’s CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was so shocked! Totally speechless he was so fucking rude! Hate him.
Even when i wanted beyoncè to won.

Olivia | 9/13/2009, 10:32 pm EST

Seriously, that was beyond rude from Kanye. Although his main goal is to get a reaction out of everyone watching, that was still a poor idea on his part. Taylor Swift is a young and fresh artist and is the person least likely to deserve such a unexpected mishap like that. He embarrassed himself beyond all belief and I’ve lost a majority of my respect for him. Suck it Kanye…

*Sigh* | 9/13/2009, 10:32 pm EST

Excuse me Mr. so-called ‘MC’, there is a time and place to “speak your mind;” rushing on stage to interrupt a person during their time to talk is NOT the appropriate time. Kanye is a completely tactless and rude fool and is just jealous because he can’t win anything for himself.

oh my god, i felt so bad for Taylor Swift! it was her first VMA award!! Kanye West is such an asshole, someone should have pulled him off stage…maybe Beyonce should’ve!!

somebody | 9/13/2009, 10:33 pm EST

Every year something crazy happens at the VMA, so it makes me think. As the internet takes over TV in our world, MTV seems a bit desperate sometimes. But I guess it’s believable, a lot of these stars are clueless morons who maybe happened to drop their album to the right person at the right time. Oh well, let him deal with his karma now.

gibbons | 9/13/2009, 10:33 pm EST

I think having his jaw wired messed with his head a little bit. Dude is crazy… I’m no fan of Taylor Swift’s music but seriously… have some class… respect even? I have never been able to stand that ignorant prick and this just pushed him further up on my S-list. Sad sad soul… if he even has one.

Courtney | 9/13/2009, 10:33 pm EST

tejanca | 9/13/2009, 10:33 pm EST

how could u be so heartless? HAHA, still i find it funny. though im not sure if beyonce was more deserving than swift.

RL | 9/13/2009, 10:33 pm EST

That was rediculous. Taylor Swift deserved everything she received. Kanye had no right to storm on stage and embarrass that poor girl. Shame, Shame, Shame!

SamCrowFan | 9/13/2009, 10:33 pm EST

This isn’t the first time Kanye has made an ass of himself. Both my kids are heavy into music, and I let them stay up past their bedtimes just to watch the VMA’s. They got a really good lesson in how not to act as musicians. So, I suppose a thank you is in order for Mr. West?

Melissa | 9/13/2009, 10:34 pm EST

What is wrong with people? When is it alright to disrespect a young woman in a room full of her peers and fans? And then there is someone defending him! He could have voiced his opinion in a number of different forums after her speech. He should be ashamed, but I know he isn’t.

GRRR | 9/13/2009, 10:34 pm EST

That’s so rude. And even if her music is not that great, she’s a kid. He’s a bully. And dumb for taking the VMA’s so seriously.The audience voted. It’s not the friggin Grammy’s. Tweens and teens love Taylor Swift. They are her target audience. They are the voters.

Taylor’s a teenager, like seriously wtf would you do that to her for? She’s a class act who doesn’t dress like a whore to sell her music. Beyonce is a great singer as well, but obviously she was corrdial in the loss. I would have been mortified if I was her too; both Beyonce and Taylor.

At the end of the day he was correct but wrong for how he did it. Did anyone see Beyonces performance???? EXACTLY. Times have changed n thats just how it goes. Bow down to the QUEEN.

Mike Stone | 9/13/2009, 10:40 pm EST

Kanye West should learn that his opinions aren’t necessary for the rest of the world to hear.Sure, he has a right to them, but Taylor Swift had a right to her moment in the sun and he had no problem stealing that from her. Shut up for once in your life Kanye and act like a man, not an impulsive child.

The man | 9/13/2009, 10:40 pm EST

Kanyeze, c’mon fam. She’s 19. It is not as serious for Kanye as a lot above are taking it; it’s more a gimmick than anything, but there’s a time and place for a stunt.

Not again, not a first timer and not a 19 yr old girl who is taking all this very serious and to heart. Dude, it aint all about you and your fam champ. If its serious beef, wait for the press conf.

kanyeze disappointed heavy tonight. No doubt.

Anthony David Corvino, PC | 9/13/2009, 10:40 pm EST

I am at the Award Show and watched this live. Miss Swift was very graceful and handled this with such class. Kanye what can you say… A true Low Life. Also he brings his classless behavior live on a night where the late Mr Jackson is being remembered by true Icons like Madonna and Janet. Kanye needs to publicly apologize. I have a call into his record label along with many others to demand this or drop him off the label.

That’s it…. No more of his music in my home, on my radio, on my kids IPODS. And I have to say, I’m disappointed that during and/ or after Beyonce’s performance she didn’t give a much deserved call out to Taylor.

Fuck Taylor Swift | 9/13/2009, 10:41 pm EST

Angered | 9/13/2009, 10:41 pm EST

I am so angered by what Kanye did. I have lost all respect for him. One of my favorite songs is Street Lights by Kanye himself, but honestly, I don’t even think I want to listen to it anymore.

He’s lost my support.

Keep your chin up Taylor, you’re clearly a better person than he is.

Daniel | 9/13/2009, 10:41 pm EST

Now, let me first say that yes, you can’t blame a man for speaking his mind and yes, Beyonce might have HAD a better video(Don’t really know, haven’t really seen it) BUT, unless somebody ask you, or it’s after the show, you don’t go up there, steal somebody’s mic, and tell them that somebody elses video was better. He told her that she was gonna be able to finish, but he didn’t give her the mic back til her time was up. Did he forget about the mic or was he trying to make a statement? Either way it was a pretty sucky move. I don’t know why she was crying like that, and it was a very awkward moment with her standing there with nothing really to say. I do have ONE thing to say, at least he didn’t say that he deserved the award, I’ll give him props for that, I know it was for Female Video of the Year, but still, he has that big of an ego that he could do that. Wouldn’t it be a kick if him and some country artist were up for the same award, he won and Taylor came up and did that to him? That’s what we call payback Kanye, Karma’s gonna come back to bite him in the rear end and I can’t wait to see it.

Ex-Kanye Fan | 9/13/2009, 10:41 pm EST

What a total Douchebag. The only reason he did that was because it was Taylor Swift, whom we ALL know, would not fight back. If he pulled that crap on Pink or Katie Perry he would have had his ass handed to him.

Somehow Kanye has done it again. And somehow, people will still admire him and buy his music. Im not a huge fan of Taylor Swift, but I really feel for her. She is so young and this was her first VMA award. At least it was someone (Kanye) who is known to be so pathetic, that ruined her moment and hopefully she can realize how pathetic it was.

Meredth | 9/13/2009, 10:42 pm EST

I just want to say that Kanye was wrong for doing that. Taylor is a sweet person and she did deserve that award. Kanye is mad because nobody listens to him anymore. Now on the VMA’s people are booing at him and he does deserve it.

Kanye is a Gay Fish | 9/13/2009, 10:42 pm EST

Just let the man speak his mind. Of course he could have gotten his message across in another way but hell its true…Beyonce did have one of the best videos this year. And Taylor who?? Ya’ll seen how shocked she was when she won because she knew she didn’t deserve it. Oh and for all of you who are making comments about his mother….HOW DARE YOU?? Loosing a mother is one of the hardest thing a person will have to go through, no matter what age you are. It is fine to have your opinions but please do not include someones dead mother in something she has nothing to do with. That is all.

Cindi Cochran | 9/13/2009, 10:43 pm EST

Kayne West should be ashamed of himself for stealing the spotlight from Taylor Swift. I immediately thought back to last years grammys when Kayne west performed and Taylor was very excited about it and said she was a fan of Kanye’s music. I have always been a fan of Kanye’s music but have never been a fan of his ignorance and as a mother of three (3) myself, I don’t believe his mother, had she been alive to witness his actions tonight, would approve of his distasteful behavior.

Jaka | 9/13/2009, 10:44 pm EST

If it doesn’t end up coming out that this was all a publicity stunt, which I doubt it was because why would Taylor agree to give up her first acceptance speech, — anyway, unless it comes out that it was a big joke, Kanye West should not be allowed to attend the VMA’s any longer. If he must attend, put him in the balcony. He won’t have enough time to wade through everyone and jump on stage to make an ass of himself.

I’m really tired of the fanwanking that Taylor Swift is receiving. Granted, what Kanye did was rather rude, but the number of guys raving about how hot she is and the number of girls raving about her great her music need to shut up. She’s just another rising star that’ll pass eventually, just like the majority of artists these days.

Honestly, both of them are really overrated – Beyonce AND Taylor.

She really didn’t deserve that award. She writes her own boring songs that have no forward thinking and no beats that work to forward musical movement…I agree, each to their own…it’s about time someone stood up to America’s stupidity and backward thinking. If she really deserved the award, would she be crying backstage, proud of who she is and the songs she writes? The answer is no. Yes, he should have thought about the fact that he crushed her by ruining her defining moment as an artist, but being Kanye, it wouldn’t be a show without him speaking his very clever mind..

Beyonce has won and lost many awards, she is an adult and doesn’t need a 2 year old throwing a hissy fit on her behalf. Kanye ( and his ego)forgets that his opinion is important to no one but himself. I don’t care much for Taylor either but she sold more records in the last year than ANY other artist-that includes Beyonce and Kanye so she deserves props and respect for what she has accomplished-and she’s still a teenager. I am curious what Beyonce will have to say.

where was he when britney beat out beyonce in another category. maybe beyonce’s video wasn’t the best. in my opinion her video is terrible.

taylor deserves a public apology from kanye.

Very wrong Kanye your mother taught you better I’m sure. Kanye looking for attention is much like Miss Swift herself. Swifty proclaims to be a country artist, yet she remixes all of her music to release to pop stations. No natural crossover hits here Miss Swift, everything has been calculated to keep yourself in the spot light. What I don’t get is how Country Radio allows you to continue to use them when you really want way more than to be anything but a country artist.

Everyone will talk about what a show you assholes put on tonight…but when the dust settles, you’ll wonder where your $$$ has gone. We, the American people will not continue to support this crap. I grew up with MTV, when you played Music Videos. Now, you just try to piss people off. Why would you have that feces infected host back for another year? And where was security? Why was Kanye alowed onstage, to take another artist’s mic? Was he ejected from the venue? He should be ejected from MTV as well. OH!!! that’s right. you don’t play music anymore…so it’s cool. Go to hell MTV!!!

carrie | 9/13/2009, 10:50 pm EST

wtf!! what a first class jerk he is…he should definitely apologize
to Taylor but that would take some class which he has none of obviously.

Kanye West is a p-o-s hyprocrite that should be banned from mtv much the same way they did Dice Clay. He needs his guts stomped out to teach him some manners.

I didn’t think Beyonce looked mortified at all. I have a feeling she knew it was coming. Looking at the video, I wanted to smack the smile off of her face. Smiling is not being mortified! She sucks too.

X-Kayne Fan | 9/13/2009, 10:51 pm EST

Okay, I’m done with Kayne. I will never buy another thing that man sings, produces, or talks about. What do you mean – “You can’t blame a man for speaking his mind”?? A REAL MAN knows where and when to speak his mine. He’s a jerk and I won’t ever let my dance students listen to his crap either. He needs to roll back into the sewer he came from.

I can not even imagine what Kayne thought he would achieve from this rude act. Come on, Taylor Swift? She is 19 years old and is actually one young celebrity that has remained respectable. I sincerely hope that he experiences negative reactions from this..I certainly intend to boycott anything associated with him.

The Wite Boi | 9/13/2009, 10:53 pm EST

Kanye West is a talentless douchebag, and he would be nothing without the amazing Jay-Z, sure he’s got a few good songs, but he is not an artist, and he is not original. Who the hell does this guy think he is, going up on stage an ruining this poor girl’s moment just to get attention. He should be banned from MTV for doing something as rotten as that. What a low, and pathetic excuse for a human being. It’s a shame that great musicians (actual artists) like John Lennon, Kurt Cobain, Tu Pac, and many others are all gone, yet Kanye West is still breathing. Glad Eminem won, and not him. Eminem is a true artist, Kanye is a hack.

Kanye, is a punk ass BEEYOTCH!

This guy hasn’t been relevent nor original since his debut in my mind.

He needs to get his ass kicked by someone.

What a show of disrespect and ignorance; plus he does it to a girl, no less?

If he had done that to a MAN. He would’ve gotten layed out on stage, ugly gump ass beeyotch.

Go taylor swift!

Alan Carver | 9/13/2009, 10:53 pm EST

Kanye West is a complete and utter disgrace to the hip-hop industry and music industry as a whole! Anyone ever did that to HIM while he was accepting an AWARD – GOD HELP THEM! But to do that to a young ‘relatively’ new artist as Taylor Swift – very CLASSLESS! But then again it is Kanye West and he is CLASSLESS even with his own grand-standing . . . he is a piece of crap – seriously never bought any of his music and now more than ever WILL make sure nothing by him in any way shape or form gets into my listening stations! EVER! Good One Kanye – way to finally turn the tide against you ONCE AND FOR ALL! GOOD BYE!

Here’s hoping that this was the “Kiss of Death” for his career in music cause his rapping sucks! Just listen to his words when he raps and tell me if it makes any sense at all. And Beyonce’s All the single ladies is Awesome though!

When the world is in chaos….war, economies, ignorance, disease, no wonder rich people go loopy…… there’s nothing to live for when you have fame, just artificial happiness…..everyone who attended the VMA’s is probably crying in their beds because they have nothing to live for but a 12 track contract record deal that intoxicates our radio stations……on repeat all day long…..

This guy is so incredibly rude. He can’t sing. Last year, when he sang Heartless on American Idol live, it was absolutely obvious that anyone can be made to sound good if you have a sound studio. I haven’t liked him for a long time and I think he continues to prove why people think he is a jerk

Really?
The entire VMA award holds as much water as a sinking ship.
The fact that Kanye cares about a VMA award (after pissing and moaning that he hasn’t won one the past several years) just proves how much of an idiot he really is.
Big ups to Taylor Swift, she does some great music, but don’t let a VMA be a career milestone. It’s not worth your time.

PS: Kanye should just fall off the face of the earth already.

Ms.Crosby | 9/13/2009, 10:55 pm EST

Kanye knew who to do this to please Beyounce was laughing when they showed her she was not in shock. Nevertheless B is a great performer but she is not the only one out here..People like other performer’s.If Pink would of won would Kanye had taken that mic HELL NO..Pink would of kicked his ass

waterboy | 9/13/2009, 10:56 pm EST

I wouldn’t be surprised if this was scripted. What better way to get country music fans to pay attention to MTV then with some controversy?

If it wasn’t then it’s pathetic. Actually it is either way. No matter who had won this award I think they all deserved it and usually most people up for the awards are deserving of it. In no way should anyone giving an acceptance speech be interrupted. Could you imagine if the tables were turned and Taylor Swift interrupted Kanye?

Times like this is when I love freedom of speech so much. I think it’s hilarious to go read some peoples comments sticking up for Kanye. These people usually look just as dumb as what Kanye did.

They are all the same piece of crap Kanye is and usually try to justify it because “Beyonce deserved it” or “Taylor sucks”. Everyone has the right to think what they want but Kanye had no right to interrupt someone giving a speech like that.

Keep em coming though Kanye fans!

“If she really deserved the award, would she be crying backstage, proud of who she is and the songs she writes? The answer is no.”
really?? she is proud of her songs and she’s crying backstage because this is a huge deal for her and it’s her moment and Kanye ruined it!!

Anonymous | 9/13/2009, 10:57 pm EST

Taylor has brought country music to the VMAS and younger people in a really big way. I think that’s impressive. I like the younger girls are listening to Taylor Swift. It’s a lot better than many things they could be.

She’s not AMAZING, but c’mon. Writes her own stuff, is a better role model than most..

When I saw that I lost all respect for Kanye. Really? Mock her like that? She looked so defeated. I just wanted to to sock him in the face. She’s so young and just trying to grow.

That was totally irresponsible and he should apologize for his actions!

Well, I’m sure all the Country Peeps will show their support for our Taylor Swift . . my funny thought, hate to be you, she will have support of Toby Keith – just kidding, don’t attack me, and yes I love Toby. But come on, what happened tonight was simply ignorance. This show should cover all music genres . . . country included. The only music I’m not too found of is opera, but hey, I’m open to it and willing to listen. What happened tonight was a shame, but just shows that others can’t be open to what is different from when they do. Let’s remember, MTV VMA’s is for Video Music Awards, it covers ALL music. It is a shame that this one incident will over shadow the wonderfull tribute at the beginning of the show.

Cincy Actor | 9/13/2009, 11:01 pm EST

When are you people going to realize that the MTV awards have nothing whatsoever to do with talent, songwriting, vocal ability, etc. It’s all about the video and ONLY the video, and should actually be given to the writer/creator and director of the video, not the performer.

that was sick. If people wanted Beyonce to win, they should have voted. I dont even like taylor swift but as a song writer myself I totally appreciate what she does, and bringing country music into the spotlight you’ve got to have some talent. Not only that, but she sold more cds than every woman musician in 2008. If beyonce was supposed to win why didn’t she sell that many cds? it’s based on sales and votes. Both women are talented. Kanye is a douche for doing this. it’s fine for him to have an opinion but taylor should sue. he musta been drunk.

Iloveutaylor! | 9/13/2009, 11:02 pm EST

The VMA should consider that an assault on Taylor. Taylor rocks!!!!

Randommm | 9/13/2009, 11:02 pm EST

Do I think Taylor had the BEST video of the year? Not even close.

But what else can you expect from Kanye West? He’s always been an egoistic jerk. He’ll no doubt continue with his idiotic antics until the end of his career.

LOL. I bet everyone who has graduated from Harvard cannot spell or use proper punctuation… Bless you.

over it | 9/13/2009, 11:02 pm EST

once again Kayne shows his butt…when are those successful men that influence him going to get in his face and encourage him to grow up and begin to respect others. he can have his viewpoint but I am so sick of MTV and the rest of the world inviting him to events so he can ruin them. he is disgusting- his mother is rolling over in her grave with disappointment.

Aliana | 9/13/2009, 11:03 pm EST

i agree that her songs are boring and i don’t think she can really sing. her songs all seem to be sung on 1 note lol and the beginning of her songs always sound the same like she’s talking/singing but she def didn’t deserve what Kanye did to her! to HaHa who said she didnt deserve the award because she writes boring songs lol the award was for best video not best writer so doesnt matter how corny her songs are.

fact | 9/13/2009, 11:03 pm EST

wooo hooo kanye i like it!

MonaFierce | 9/13/2009, 11:03 pm EST

As a black woman…I am disgusted…Kanye was so wrong for that.

Accountability | 9/13/2009, 11:03 pm EST

Now a days as a society we need to start really holding people accountable for their actions such as celebrities and athletes. If you can’t handle yourself to act right in social situations with accordance to societies standards action should be taken against you, there is no place for you and you should be removed. Like Kanye stepping on stage (Trespassing), Serena telling a judge that she was going to shove a ball down his throat (Harrassment), Blount (from Oregon State) punching a player on the field (Assault). All of these people should suffer penalties in accordance to the law and it needs to be done NOW!! And people from the United State wonder why people around the world hate us….

Pretty funny those that say it is okay for Kanye to speak your mind are probably the same folks who think that Rep Wilson was wrong to speak his mind when the President was speaking and call him a liar

liberal hypocrites

Kathy S | 9/13/2009, 11:03 pm EST

Kanye West is a self absorbed, arrogant asshole who think because he is a so called “artist” he can say whatever he wants whenever he wants. He’s entitled to his opinion, but not when a true artist is accepting her award and deserves her moment….He is such a loser….

Kanye fan | 9/13/2009, 11:03 pm EST

hahaha taylor didnt deserve the award
beyonce did, “you cant fault a man for speaking his mind” more like you cant fault a man for speaking the truth
long live mr. west

Even if you think she didn’t deserve the award, no one deserves to have their moment taken from them like that. Who wouldn’t cry after being treated the way she did in front of millions of people?

Heath | 9/13/2009, 11:04 pm EST

Just proves his prejudice. He can’t accept that other people have a different opinion. Beyonce’s video was also good, but Taylor’s was the complete package. I am nt sure why people listen to such a close minded bigot like KantYa!

Zema | 9/13/2009, 11:05 pm EST

Folks, you need to relax. All he said was that beyonce’s video was ‘one of the best’. No one’s saying she didn’t deserve to win.

Kanye…..what a jerk. Pick on somebody who can bitch slap you back. Regardless of what you think, she won the award. If you disagree, start your own damn award show. Maybe the problem is you have such a little d*ck that the only way you can feel good about yourself is to bully up on 19 year old girls…what a pathetic loser.

Angela | 9/13/2009, 11:06 pm EST

Well…Taylor does not need to cry cause she already got the award Kanye!:) I Love Taylor Swift.

Kayne is tacky & rude for not showing respect for another artist. That is why he will NOT be getting/accepting an award. I feel he did it for the publicity.

lawl | 9/13/2009, 11:06 pm EST

I am not a fan of Kanye OR Taylor. At least she writes all of her own stuff though, instead of sampling/ruining a classic Daft Punk song :p

Idiots | 9/13/2009, 11:06 pm EST

Kanye and the MC are certainly entitled to their opinions, but it does not justify running onstage and interrupting a speech. That’s just plain rude.

Mary Anne. | 9/13/2009, 11:06 pm EST

I’m not a huge fan Taylor’s music nor Kanye’s music, but that’s totally unacceptable. Perhaps Beyonce’s video was better – I don’t know, but, honestly, that’s so horrible for him to say something like that. It’s not like he said it to a friend afterwards, or to Beyonce herself afterwards, but to jump on the stage, take the microphone, and say it, out loud, in front of millions of people, that’s completley horrific. What a rude, rude man to do that to someone like her. I don’t know a lot about her but she’s never portrayed badly in the media, so I take that as a sign she’s a good person. But honestly, someone like Kanye should seriously learn to keep their mouths shut from now on.

E | 9/13/2009, 11:06 pm EST

YEP YEP.. At the end of the day he was correct but wrong for how he did it. Did anyone see Beyonces performance???? EXACTLY. Times have changed n thats just how it goes. Bow down to the QUEEN.

Interesting | 9/13/2009, 11:07 pm EST

As far as him being racist .. isn’t his girlfriend (Amber Rose?) white? …

Anyways, yeah that was rude on many levels.

I didn’t think Taylor Swift even had a chance. Her video wasn’t at all memorable or impressive but goodness, give the girl a break. It was her very first VMA.

Chris | 9/13/2009, 11:07 pm EST

The only hits you will get for now on are the songs ft Kanye West. That’s pretty sad. You’re not cool enough to have a real opinion on anything. You’re just a buster!!!

lmao | 9/13/2009, 11:07 pm EST

That was awsome. who cares about there shity award anyway

wow | 9/13/2009, 11:07 pm EST

ok im tired of people saying “kanye is entitled to his opion and beyounce did deserve the award.” Yeah he is entitled to his opinion but hes not entitled to stealing the mic during her acceptance speach just to disrespect her in front of the world. Also if beyounce deserved to win the award then why didnt she get it? The people vote and taylor won you dumb asses. I also kind of feel bad for beyounce, not because she lot, but because you could tell she really was embarassed that kanye did that. Shes a great artist, but she lost. So good job taylor

In response to "haha" | 9/13/2009, 11:07 pm EST

Seriously??? Do you write music, perform songs, or put on sold out concerts? I didnt think so, and as far as Swifts music putting a backslide on the industry I think her songs are a hell of a lot more impressive than a repitition of “all the single ladies, all the single ladies, all the single ladies, all the single ladies” Seriously? Compare the two, she deserved her award and your just a big an ass as kanye west. Just like any other moronic idiot out there that thought this was funny. You people have absolutely no tact, and if it had been your family member up there you wouldnt be singing kanye west’s praises.

Tena | 9/13/2009, 11:08 pm EST

theres nothing wrong with Kanye speaking his small mind,it just was the wrong time,it was Taylor’s moment to shine anad he stole that from her…no one has done him that way when he was accepting an award,what a jerk!!!!

Anonymous | 9/13/2009, 11:08 pm EST

Typical b-s from Kanye. Running his mouth, believing that the entire industry and world for that matter revolves around HIM. Now..if Mary J Blige or Mariah Carey took home the award…would he have stormed the stage?? Typical racial bullshit! He should have kept his damn mouth wired shut!

Terri | 9/13/2009, 11:08 pm EST

kanye acted like a jerk it should not matter if u think she should not have won, she did, respect her enough to let her have her moment instand of ruining it. she has done a lot for a young age, a couple years ago you would have never had a country artist as a nominee.

SoundDepth | 9/13/2009, 11:09 pm EST

We all know the votes were fixed, Beyonce should have won that award! “Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)” was a way bigger song. Everybody and their grandmother was doing the choreography from Beyonce’s music video. Mater fact, Beyonce’s music video was nominated for a total of 9 MTV Video Music Awards breaking the record for most nominations for a single music video, if you didn’t agree with me before. On top of it, “Single Ladies” was named the #1 song on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the Best 100 Singles of 2008, and #2 on MTV’s list of the Best Songs of 2008.

Whatever | 9/13/2009, 11:09 pm EST

“Just let the man speak his mind. Of course he could have gotten his message across in another way but hell its true…Beyonce did have one of the best videos this year. And Taylor who?? Ya’ll seen how shocked she was when she won because she knew she didn’t deserve it. Oh and for all of you who are making comments about his mother….HOW DARE YOU?? Loosing a mother is one of the hardest thing a person will have to go through, no matter what age you are. It is fine to have your opinions but please do not include someones dead mother in something she has nothing to do with. That is all.”

Glad your momma spent good money on Harvard for your sorry ass. You didn’t learn a damn thing about being a professional. Harvard should revoke your degree.

Taylor Swift is not a sweet girl – joe jonas broke up with her and she talked about him – made rude you-tube videos – she is pretty vindictive and her music is very one-dimensional – it was surprising she won – Kanye has always beeb a jerk so nothing he does is surprising – his music is excellent!!

dj | 9/13/2009, 11:10 pm EST

i think its funny. he didnt relize at th time that this will screw things up for himself, half the country hates him now. sucks for him. taylor swift is young and that was very sad kanye did that to her, beyonce had won so many awards anyways

Fck Kanye | 9/13/2009, 11:10 pm EST

The world would actually be a better place if he was under it and not on it. Not trying to give anyone ideas. Not saying someone, shall i say, assasinate his dumb ass. I don’t give a shit if you are high, drunk, and horny, to be as old as you are and to pull all the dumb shit you do you don’t deserve to be in the place you are. I feel sorry for your mom, she might have had the inclination before, but now she has to know she was a failure.

michael | 9/13/2009, 11:11 pm EST

taylor should not be crying like that. shes a big girl now and she needs to act like it. if youre at the vmas and get an award, by now you should expect someone (kanye) to rush the stage) especially if you didnt deserve it and the only reason you got the award is because millions of 12 year olds like your mindless pop more than real music. kanye shouldnt be shunned for his actions even though its hard to justify them. some people like to speak their minds more than others. i respect him for that. he doesnt care what people think he does what he thinks is right and i commend him for that and making great music.

As a african american woman, this is quite humiliating. yes, Swift def did not have the best video of the year, especially compared to Beyonce, but he had NO RIGHT TO DO WHAT HE DID. He could have saved that!!! So Rude and disrespectful, I know he would dare want anyone to do that to him.

anonymous | 9/13/2009, 11:11 pm EST

how can anybody support what kanye did? what he did was just plain rude, obnoxious, and uncalled for. if anybody had done that to him, he would be furious. i completely support taylor and wish her all the luck in the world. she is an extremely talented singer and songwriter. i’m very proud of the crowd for booing him. he deserved worse than that. hopefully now everyone can realize how slimy, pathetic, egotistical, and terrible of a person he really is

Bottom Line | 9/13/2009, 11:11 pm EST

Kanye West needs to learn that he is only an entertainer, nothing more–nothing less (Truly). He sold his soul to the industry so therefore he has no opinion and had no right to walk his two feet on that stage. When he started his career no one tried to take his shine away. So. on a real note Taylor Swift does deserve an apology and she deserves her respect. Kanye embarrassed Beyonce, Jay-Z, and most of all himself. This has nothing to do with being black or white.

L-town | 9/13/2009, 11:12 pm EST

And another thing it has nothing to do with race well i don’t think it has anything to do with it an as i read some of the comments above people are calling him the N word whats that going to solve your just being ignorant like he was have respect for other people of the same ethnicity as him all blacks aren’t alike an all whites aren’t alike an its ridiculous that people are still throwing the race card out there grow up he could’ve did it to anybody he’s just a ignorant person but theres no need to bring race in this

James | 9/13/2009, 11:12 pm EST

The funny this is, that Kanye will still be making hugely successful albums 5 years from now, while Taylor Swift will be all but forgotten. Kanye has proven he has staying power, while Taylor is just a passing fad.

Cammeron | 9/13/2009, 11:12 pm EST

Thanks Poop-Culture, thanks alot!

T_rock | 9/13/2009, 11:12 pm EST

any projects that kanye west are tied to should be banned by the purchasing public. If he produces, co-writes or has anything to do with any song or record it shouldn’t be banned by the public. Take him off his high horse and put him in his place.

This jackass has compared himself to the beatles on a past award show . nobody will remember kanye west in 100 years but people will still be listening to the beatles. he is smoking CRACK if he thinks for a second that he is doing anything remotely relevant.

wow. | 9/13/2009, 11:13 pm EST

i think we should ban together and help ruin kanye’s career.. as if he hasn’t done a good enough job already!

his behavior is sick. i hope he doesn’t cop out and blame his behavior on the Hennessy bottle he had on the red carpet. PATHETIC.

Whoa whoa whoa... | 9/13/2009, 11:13 pm EST

I have never been so shocked. I mean, Kanye’s done some crazy stuff, but this CROSSES THE LINE!!! And he did the same thing a couple years ago at the European VMAs when he lost to Justice! Doesn’t he EVER learn? Oh wait, how CAN he learn when idiots continue to buy his albums and support his antics! I was personally rooting for Beyonce, but you know what? The public spoke, and they thought Taylor deserved to win. So she won fair and square. And I’m not mad at all. It’s not like she sabotaged the votes to go in her favor, so why humiliate the poor girl? Why did he have to go and do that? And he certainly wasn’t helping Beyonce’s cause, either! What an asshole indeed! I hope his next album fails harder than K-Fed’s album. Seriously, enough’s enough now. Douchebaggery has its limits. He NEEDS to learn his lesson the good-old-fashioned way.

first off alot of people are saying she didnt deserve the award well people voted and she won. She was crying because she was humiliated on national tv by kanye who had no right to ruin her speech and say someone else should have won. Its not kanyes award show its mtvs award show.He couldve gone about it differently then he did, or for once shut his pie hole. Beyonce has had her time in the spot light. screw kanye he lost me and a bunch of his fans. glad they kicked him out, they should have never let him on the stage.

Anonymous | 9/13/2009, 11:16 pm EST

WHAO!?! That is OMG and WTF.
How are the videos even decided?

Her video was total crap how did she win?

Kanye West is right- Beyonce’s video actually is far superior video based on its global track record, not to mention its amazing artistic appeal.

Popularity does not define great. However Single Laddies was a craze and was revolutionary in its own right.

It made thousands of fans and organizations make tributes on youtube across the world. People talked about it in the work place at parties and everywhere in between. I have never heard of Taylor Swifts video or song before now…

I don’t think a video should win based on the number of people who listen to the genra. Yes country music in Amaerica is far more popular by number, but world wide its not so much a favorite.

So Kanye should stand up for injustice- thats what he is known for. It is his brand.

Though its sad that Taylor Swift got hurt.

The Loud Talker | 9/13/2009, 11:16 pm EST

If Joe Wilson had to apologize to the president for telling the truth, Kanye West needs to apologize for being an arrogant embarassment to the music world.

egocentric self involved jerk | 9/13/2009, 11:17 pm EST

Kanye needs to get a life and realise that there are a million billion people out there who have just as much, and I can even say, MORE talent than him. In 20 years time, his name will not be remembered, and yeah so he has a million dollar home, million dollar car, and million dollar empire.

…but money sure as hell can’t buy human decency – and that will probably be the only thing Kanye will ever be remembed for.

Congrats to Taylor – if i was you girl I would have kicked him in the balls.

He is scum

but we all know – he’ll probably use this as material for his next overrated egocentric album.

What has happened to the music industry today?

ugh i hate him soo much how dare he do something like that he’s a classless ignorant jerk and Taylor deserves an apology Taylor Swift deserved her award. Beyonce has real class good for her for letting Taylor have her moment!! GO TAYLOR!!!!:)

How Sad | 9/13/2009, 11:17 pm EST

Okay, so Taylor Swift’s video obviously wasn’t the best, but keep in mind that this is the MTV VMA’s! The same network that gave Kristen Stewart the Best Actress award over Angelina and Kate.

It isn’t about who had the Best anything with these awards, it’s about who the ‘it’ person is at the moment. Taylor has an extremely successful album out, as well as chart topping hits on the radio. I’m not surprised she got the award for a lackluster video.

Now that that’s out in the open…

Kanye’s a jerk!

People: please do not support his music. this man needs to learn humility. he took someones moment away. she wont get that back.

disgusted | 9/13/2009, 11:18 pm EST

taylor i am so sorry that asshole did that to you, you had every damn right to be happy and excited and THRILLED to win that vma, but kayne ruined that experience for you, and thats just plain mean. kayne i probably wont listen to anymore of your songs now, actually i just plain wont listen to your songs anymore.

It was rude Of Kanye to do That…But Still….TAYLOR SWIFT????? At least Someone else..Like comeon, many people dont like her music as much..It had to be something behind this..But Still, yes It was Also Rude, But on the other hand, He was just speaking his mind….But smh..kanye is outta control

i hate taylor swift and beyonce, so i stand neutral. but kanye i do like, even though he is a racist prick who uses his popularity to make a mockery of himself and his business. this has made me change my mind simply because i’m tired of his hatred for whites.

schlater | 9/13/2009, 11:19 pm EST

maybe beyonce would have gotten best video if kanye was the one deciding. obviously the vma’s and the nation didnt want his opinion on the matter and after that little stunt noone will give a damn what he has to say for a long time. what an ass.

beyonce fixed it | 9/13/2009, 11:19 pm EST

well, Beyonce showed a lot of class bringing Taylor up to continue her speech on Beyonce’s time….nicely done

pissed off | 9/13/2009, 11:20 pm EST

I don’t give a crap if people think taylor deserved to win or not (I personally didn’t even think she deserved to win).. BUT it was COMPLETELY inappropriate to ruin her moment… She is a 19 year old girl for gods sake. Beyonce didn’t look at all upset about what happened. As far as I am concerned, I have lost ALL respect for both of them.

Sgt.Hardhead | 9/13/2009, 11:20 pm EST

If I had been onstage, i would have “talked” to him.Somebody needs to defend her honor.As a matter of fact Kanye(”boy”) meet me at the Camp LeJuene Gate, if you got the nerve.I wants to talk wiff you.Ask for Hardhead at the gate.

Funny Thought | 9/13/2009, 11:20 pm EST

Beyonce did a wonderful thing. We should all end this. She stepped up to the plate and knocked that ball out of the ball park. Thank you for what you did. You are a very gracious, classy LADY.

aj | 9/13/2009, 11:20 pm EST

ok so Kanye that was really uncalled for however I completely agree “Single Ladies” was far more popular than Taylor’s video which I think I’ve seen once…n that speaks for itself yeah thats nice that Taylor is a good role model etc but this is about the video not whose nice and honestly Beyonce’s video was better which is y it won video of the yr case closed…kanye was right

Marty | 9/13/2009, 11:20 pm EST

Well I feel bad for Swift, she won! Kayne is just a drama queen. And I also feel bad for Beyonce she’s looked mortified! Rock on Swift!

Simon | 9/13/2009, 11:21 pm EST

Kayne can speak his mind as much as he wants. Was he rude or out of line? Absolutley. If someone did that to him I’m sure he would be upset, and probably talk trash about them afterward. I’m glad they threw him out. He needs to make a public apolgy, but its Kayne so that will probably not happen.

Beyonce’s video was better?? 3 woman coreographed dancing is amazing??? Paula Abdul did that back in the 80’s so its not like it was never done before. I think the skit on Saturday night Live with Justin Timerberlake was better. And stealing the spotlight from ANYONE is just wrong BOYCOTT Kanye

jess | 9/13/2009, 11:21 pm EST

Nick | 9/13/2009, 11:22 pm EST

yo kanye was right…
it mightve been a bad call on his part, but beyonce deserved that award.

just cuz every 12 year old girl in america loves taylor swift doesn’t mean her video was better.
Respect.

Ha ha ha! | 9/13/2009, 11:22 pm EST

Of course it was rude and unwarranted. That’s why it’s great! A lot of people love him and a lot more hate him but he’s the reason everyone’s tuning in. No one gives a shit about the VMAs unless Kanye pulls some crazy stunt. This is hilarious, and oh yeah, everyone knows he was right, too. Kanye is definitely an ass, but he’s never boring, unlike Ms. Swift.

MTV needs to take a good hard look about how they should treat Mr. West in future. Perhaps tying him down to his chair and fitting a well-deserved straightjacket on the loonie would be a good start?

That girl is only 19 years old and he humiliated her like that. I am glad he got booed. I have no idea who Wale is but he’s a jerk for condoning that.

He obviously has some mental health problems and needs to be institutionalized and placed on heavy meds.

Seriously, how in the world does a DISNEY CHARACTER win over BEYONCE or even lady gaga (IM FOR B, BUT GAGA IS UNDERSTANDABLE). both of which everyone has heard of, but taylor swifts fame is only known within her demographic. She is no where near the GLOBAL fame that beyonce or even gaga have acquired. I am simply glad someone admitted that her winning made no since what so ever…. HA…. GO HEAD KANYE!

Anonymous | 9/13/2009, 11:27 pm EST

Yeah I was disgusted (I am african american) and I do not think that he did it because Taylor is “White” and B is “Black” (and by the way for the person who said she beyonce was colored but was downing Kanye for being racist, it is racist to call afican american people colored.everyone has a color..idiot) I think he did it because of the relationship he has with jz and beyonce. I do not by any means believe that it was right but I think it was less about color and more about his opinion about the talent of his friend Beyonce. I think he needs to be fined for that and Taylor deserved the award too…Go taylor….the show went on and Beyonce, being as classy as she is gave Taylor the moment she deserved. Lets stop making everything about race people and look at them for what they are. Kanye west was launched by JZ who is married to Beyonce…he feels an obligation to her and thinks her work is better…so what…u the people make that decision so stop buying his shit and supporting his outlandish behavior and he wont keep doing that dumb stuff…k : ) He was rude and completly un called for

Wow. What a low blow. She’s only a teenager and Kanye, a grown man, decides to bash her in front of who knows how many people. Way to go Kanye. Do you feel better now. The award was for best video. Taylor’s video was creative and had substance. I love Beyonce’s song but the video wasn’t even that great. Just 3 women dancing around. I don’t know if I can respect Kanye anymore. Sure he’s a great musician, but his actions speak louder than his words. I mean, what kind of musical artist does that to a fellow musician?

Mike | 9/13/2009, 11:29 pm EST

Kayne (not sure of spelling, don’t care) is a little cry baby that needs a spanking. He’s trying to stay relevant, yet more and more people are seeing what kind of a whining little (and I emphasize LITTLE) dufus, cry baby, he is.

He’s obviously mad at the world because he never fully grew into a real man.

Carrie | 9/13/2009, 11:30 pm EST

I absolutely hate Taylor Swift’s voice, and I guess that Kanye West does too. Beyonce deserves this award much more than Swift, who is really lucky that people actually accept her singing and videos. (Miley Cyrus is no different). Let him speak his mind, for goodness sake.

Steve | 9/13/2009, 11:30 pm EST

Kanye’s just another “clown” ….
Both ladies are talented however Swift won.

What a RichardHEAD | 9/13/2009, 11:30 pm EST

Kanye – you just committed Professional Suicide – I will enjoy watching you handle the reaction! Whatever drug you are taking I’d suggest you try another. I didn’t watch the VMA’s but as a WHITE Father of a Teen Age daughter, I heard the commotion when your dumb ass got on stage and they played the video for me. It was then Twitted and Faced booked to death! You deserve what you get.
PS – I use to like a few of your songs but I will go out of my way (AS YOU DID) to share my opinion of your pathetic performance with everyone I interact.

Best of Luck to you – - YOU WILL NEED IT!

Not at Taylor, but more at the entire fiasco…

lol, I’m still laughing

Haha mtv wat a joke like kanye is sweating it. Taylor can’t handle the heat why she in tha game …….

chanel | 9/13/2009, 11:30 pm EST

Well to evry1 who is saying tht kanye wasn’t wrong mtv was…thts bull. Fans voted for their favorite, its not like its fixed, otherwise beyonce wld have won. She definetly had a good video, but it seems like HER fans didn’t vote. So people shld stop puttin the blame of someone or something tht had no control ovr it.

Besides tht was such a rude disrespectful thing kanye did. If he desperately wanted to state his opinion, he shld have done it differently like on twitter or sumthin, not in frnt of millions of people..wat a f****** prick

Mel Z | 9/13/2009, 11:30 pm EST

Kanye West is simply one of the biggest egomaniacs. What a piece of garbage! Yes, he hates white people and is ignorant. Oh yeah, he also has awful lyrics and abysmal MC skills.

Glenn from RI | 9/13/2009, 11:31 pm EST

Kanye West doesn’t care about white people! ;) — J/K, but seriously… you’re going to flip out about George Bush, and Katrina, and make a comment like that… and then you interupt a girl’s speech to give props to Beyonce?!? — Doesn’t he know she’s married to Jay Z? Give it up already!

It’s all a big publicity stunt, as the vma’s always are — it just happened to be immensely classless this time.

If you wanna give Beyonce props when you win an award and you’re giving a speech – fine. But don’t act like a tool and steal someone else’s moment in the sun.

Taylor fan 19 | 9/13/2009, 11:31 pm EST

Unbelievable | 9/13/2009, 11:31 pm EST

I don’t care how rich or how famous Kanye is, he showed he has no class tonight. At the very least he needs to apologize for acting like such an ass!

Just goes to show what a no talented, low life, douche bag, piece of shit, sore losing, racial, FUCK-TARD kanye can be…is…and always will be. Maybe he will get hit by a car after his post VMA party…one can hope…If MTV allows this asshole back ever again, it just goes to show that they tolerate people making asses out of themselves on TV, oh wait he doesn’t need help with that, and isn’t that what the Real World is for…

I feel bad for taylor but she still won, so she will get over it and SO SHOULD YOU. Does it surprise you that Kanye said that? Cos Kanye will be Kanye, and if you expected any different. you the idiot.

Melissa | 9/13/2009, 11:32 pm EST

This does not come down to talent, its about morals. Kanye should be ashamed of himself, he has no respect for others. Whether she deserved to win or not does not matter. She was the winner and he could not change that. His mother just passed, she would be ashamed of him as well. Such a cocky ass…

Bill | 9/13/2009, 11:32 pm EST

Anonymous | 9/13/2009, 11:32 pm EST

Wow, Kanye, you couldn’t have made it through the night without ruining something? Everything has to be all about you all the time? You embarrassed Beyonce just as much as you emabrrased yourself and you probably don’t even know who Taylor Swift is. You took away a special moment from a 19 year old girl with your over-the-top antics. Way to make the night uncomfortbale for all

Maria | 9/13/2009, 11:32 pm EST

Honestly I think Taylor deserves to win. I love Beyonce But I really liked that song. They both were winners in my eyes… Kanye ur a jerk and don’t worry YOu’ll get urs.. and soon so watch ur back.

Laosummer | 9/13/2009, 11:32 pm EST

What Kanye West did was fucked up.I dont know why he would do something like that.I thought he was okay artist,now he’s an ass.And btw Beyonce’s songs are so damn tiring and old.Im sick of watching her perform single ladies ughhhh!!!

Lauren | 9/13/2009, 11:33 pm EST

the song is called “You Belong With Me” not To Me. Sorry, just sayin.

also i think kanye is a douche and taylor totally deserved that award. beyonce got video of the year and she deserved that, so taylor should have been allowed to have that moment. i’m glad Beyonce let taylor have her moment later.

get your facts straight.

Melissa Corona | 9/13/2009, 11:34 pm EST

i love kanye. hes a musical genius. ten to one everyone here talking about him and saying what an ass he is still is gonna support him & listen to his music. taylor swift will just fade off like the rest of those teeny-bopper artists and kanye will be here to stay with the rest like common, mos def, the roots and all the others. KANYE ISN’T GOING ANYWHERE PEOPLE. GET OVER IT!

Seriously?!? | 9/13/2009, 11:34 pm EST

Kanye has had his moments in the spotlight when he was a newer artist and did you see anyone up there ruin his moment? NO, let Taylor have her moment! She obviously has something Beyonce didn’t to have won the award. I like Beyonce but Taylor’s video was so much better! I am glad Kanye got thrown out, he deserves so much more than that. What a terrible sport!

Disgusted | 9/13/2009, 11:34 pm EST

Kanye’s rude outburst was NOT a benevolent act of honesty, it was an act of immature thoughtlessness.

I am not the hugest Taylor Swift fan, but seriously, let the girl have her moment. I am revolted by Kanye West.

Kristin | 9/13/2009, 11:34 pm EST

MTV sucks, as does Taylor Swift’s music, but she did not deserve to be embarrassed that way. There is a special spot in hell for Kanye West and his ego.

kanye hater | 9/13/2009, 11:34 pm EST

kanyes just a plain COCKYASS. only a conceited fool like kanye could do shit like this

Wow | 9/13/2009, 11:34 pm EST

It’s fine to speak your mind, but not like that. That was rude. He can go home and discuss it via blog, radio, newspaper, etc. He sucks anyways. He can’t even create his own music anymore.

Taylor Swift Fan | 9/13/2009, 11:34 pm EST

WTF was wrong with KW! hes an ass hole and very rude. i mean i cannot believe that he did that! what a prick!

Alexandra | 9/13/2009, 11:35 pm EST

I think he just seems mean-spirited and taking this silly award way too seriously. I mean it’s not like any of them are splitting the atom or achieving world peace.

music_wonton | 9/13/2009, 11:35 pm EST

No matter if he thought Taylor should have won or not; it was completely inappropriate, rude and disrespectful to go on stage and take someone else’s time/moment.
EVERY SINGLE AWARDS SHOW always has people winning that some/many think shouldn’t have won. BUT…you still respect the choices and leave it at that and voice it on your own time, website, songs, etc. etc. NOT during someone’s acceptance speech.

Chalant | 9/13/2009, 11:35 pm EST

Carrie, there’s a time and a place to voice an opinion, While the person is accepting the award IS NOT THE TIME!!!!!!

Aww poor Kanye He JUst wanted sum attention. He’s such an fkn Idiot.

tam | 9/13/2009, 11:35 pm EST

whether you agree with kanye or not is irrelevant. what he did was so hurtful and embarrasing to this young woman it borders on unforgiveable. there were a lot of different ways he could have expressed his displeasure and his comments still would have gotten press. this was ugly.

George | 9/13/2009, 11:35 pm EST

He had no right to storm the stage – and the VMA should ban him for at least a year.

Carrie, it’s one thing to hate someone’s voice, but this award was about the VIDEO. Beyonce’s video to Single Ladies was extremely lackluster. She didn’t deserve that award regardless of who else one.

seriously? | 9/13/2009, 11:36 pm EST

OK for everyone who said Beyonce deserved it more, are you kidding me? Her song was the dumbest damn thing i have ever heard. And the video nearly put me to sleep. Beyonce’s song and video was the dumbest shit i have ever experienced

Larry | 9/13/2009, 11:37 pm EST

To those of you who say, he was just speaking his mind—

It was RUDE and WRONG for him to “speak his mind” in the middle of someone else’s speech!

And it was wrong of MTV to not let her finish!

Glenn from RI | 9/13/2009, 11:38 pm EST

“”Let him speak his mind, for goodness sake.”"

Freedom of speech is one thing, being rude and classless is another.

He wants to give his opinion? Fine… he can tweet, blog all he wants. He can talk to the media at the after parties and say how Beyonce got robbed (if that’s his opinion). But you don’t go up on stage and interrupt someone else who just won an award, grab the mic out of her hand, go “i’m happy for ya taylor” and then proceed to tell everyone how beyonce should have won. Opinions are like… well you know the line. He’s entitled to an opinion — but he acted like a kid throwing a temper tantrum. Someone needs to stop telling these people how great they are — the rules of society still apply to you, regardless of how much money you make or how famous you are.

Anonymous | 9/13/2009, 11:38 pm EST

How can you really let something like this have an effect on your lives? No one will remember this a few months from now. Yes, someone was hurt, but none of you know her. Kanye is a rude jackass, who cares! He is not ruining your lives. Get over the Hollywood drama!

Anonymous | 9/13/2009, 11:38 pm EST

I don’t think Taylor deserved the award, but this ain’t classy Kanye.

It doesn’t matter if Kanye West disagreed with the out come of who one that award, He had absolutely no right getting up there and taking the mic away from Taylor Swift. How disrespectful can you get. What an arrogant prick. People like him who think they can do whatever they want make me so angry.

Jon Murphy MMA | 9/13/2009, 11:38 pm EST

By the way – I would like to add that Beyonce IS A great Role Model, you should attempt to learn something from her!

PS – Try creating something of your own that doesn’t sound like Daf Punk!

I say congrats to Taylor she is an incredibly talented artist; and deserved the award. An immature and childish act was all that Kanye accomplished at the VMA’s. Kanye is a self loving fool who needs to understand that there are other people on the planet and not everyone bends to his desires. Maybe Kanye should talk to his mama about manners and politeness….oh and also about decent haircuts…just saying

JayDee | 9/13/2009, 11:40 pm EST

Kayne has put in the time and effort most artist will never dream of. Doesn’t matter if Taylor Swift won or not. She didn’t deserve it over Beyonce and he had the nerve to tell the truth! All ya’ll mad and calling him names and wanting to “fight” him can never reach a level he has in life, ever! Now you stoop to what you know best, immaturity and ignorance. Get on his leve! or Not….more likely not!

The man’s got talent, but his childish crybaby antics make it impossible to like him. Thank goodness Beyonce’s got class.

Kris | 9/13/2009, 11:40 pm EST

I will never spend a dime on anything Kanye is associated with again. This is not the first award show he had a tantrum during (2006 Europe VMA). He has no respect or class. At least Beyonce is a classy lady and I highly doubt she needs Kanye defending her video. He should be banned from all future VMAs.

Alex | 9/13/2009, 11:40 pm EST

That was so mean of Kanye. Sure he has his opinion, but that doesn’t mean he has to announce it to the whole world while Taylor is in the middle of her speech. He is so rude, and I heard him sing live before and he sucked. Obviously people liked Taylor’s video better that’s why she won. I don’t even see why Kanye cared so much that he had to run on stage, it’s not like she beat him and even if she did it would still be unprofessional of him to run up and ruin Taylor’s moment.

Disgusted | 9/13/2009, 11:40 pm EST

Chris | 9/13/2009, 11:41 pm EST

To the idiots supporting Kanye–he spoke his mind but he was not running the show; he did not have a right to intrude upon another artist’s acceptance of an award; he’s pulled this crap before and its lame and vapid and egomaniacal of him–in other words, this is the behavior of a first class jackass. If you don’t get that, too bad for the rest of us because that means there is a bigger market for pinheads than I would have guessed.

kanye WHO? | 9/13/2009, 11:42 pm EST

completely disgusting.. he shouldn’t be invited to the VMA’s anymore, that’s one too many incidents involving him. yes, he is entitled to an opinion — but so is everyone else. he needs to learn a lesson or two about RESPECT. beyonce may have had a great video.. but it was a dance video. there’s so much more to these awards than choreography and costumes.

Man, your comment on the VMA’s was totally un call for. I’m black and I felt like you took us 2 steps backwards. I’m not a fan of Taylor Swift myself, however, this is a very young girl who’s never won an award before. Beyonce has many awards and despite how you felt, your comment should not have been address at that time. You even put Beyonce in it and she was looking like what the hell. Dude grow up seriously, your too damn old to keep acting out like this. Think about your actions, on how it will effect others before you have these unnecessary outburst….GROW UP DUDE!

Kanye West has in the past proven to be a self-centered, self-congratulatory legend-in-his-own-mind certified jerk, but tonight he went too far! This no-talent assclown has now demonstrated to be a classless moron and should be forever banned from every future awards show. He should also be shunned by the entertainment industry! His 15 minutes of fame are now officially up!

I fully support the boycotting of his music.To all the people who are like who is Taylor? Ive never heard of her she shouldnt have won. Guess what the world does not revolve around you!!! Obviously shes IS a big deal because she did win and beat out those other ladies.She IS on the radio all the time if you happen to listen to more than just 1 type of music. If anything Kanye just broadend her fan base and depleted some of his own.

I liked Kanye West before tonight, but now I have lost all respect for him and will never be a fan of his again. If you have opinions yes feel free to voice them, but there is a place and time and if you can’t tell when and where that is then you shouldn’t voice your opinion. I never really listened to Taylor Swift as I am not a country fan, however I give her many props on being to successful at such a young age and widening the fan pass of country music. She at the age of 19 has done more for the music industry then Kanye has. Kanye is loosing his fame fast and just trying to hang on for as long as he can.

i think any projects related to kanye west should be boycott. If he co- writes, produces or has anything to do with a record the public should boycott purchase.

That is how you get him off TV and radio. He’s an arrogant idiot that needs to be taken off of the pedistal which he has placed himself upon.

He seems to think he is JUDGE AND JURY

He has compared himself to the beatles in a past award show??? Kanye must be smoking CRACK cause he has done nothing even remotely close to being as relevant the beatles catalog.

Kaitlin | 9/13/2009, 11:45 pm EST

Kanye, how poor. That was horrible. You are always looking for attention, but this is horrible. Ruining Taylor Swift’s moment and making her cry – You are such a LOSER!

honestly | 9/13/2009, 11:45 pm EST

The same people who defended O.J. will defend Kanye , That shrimp is typical for what he is ……a savage .

e | 9/13/2009, 11:45 pm EST

HAHAHA… what do Kanye and Pete Rose have in common after that stunt? Neither will end up in thier respective Hall of Fame.

Alicia | 9/13/2009, 11:45 pm EST

Kanye lost this fan forever.

A white chick | 9/13/2009, 11:45 pm EST

That bastard is the most prejudiced prick I’ve ever heard of.

Ty | 9/13/2009, 11:45 pm EST

I liked Kanye West before tonight, but now I have lost all respect for him and will never be a fan of his again. If you have opinions yes feel free to voice them, but there is a place and time and if you can’t tell when and where that is then you shouldn’t voice your opinion. I never really listened to Taylor Swift as I am not a country fan, however I give her many props on being to successful at such a young age and widening the fan pass of country music. She at the age of 19 has done more for the music industry then Kanye has. Kanye is loosing his fame fast and just trying to hang on for as long as he can.

ITS A CRUEL WORLD OUT THERE | 9/13/2009, 11:45 pm EST

Malicious is all that can be said. Why is this even allowed to be broadcast on television. MTV should be held responsible and lose their broadcasting license. I believe Taylor Swift should not even be confronted with any apologies from Kayne. MTV should be held accountable for letting this on the air.

Completely inappropriate | 9/13/2009, 11:45 pm EST

Wow- if there was any doubt who was the biggest egomaniac in the room, Kanye took home the award.
How completely rude, to take away a moment of glory for a young woman on a big stage.
And to those who say he should be allowed to speak his mind- this was absolutely not the way to do it. Idiots.

Disgusted | 9/13/2009, 11:45 pm EST

What a jerk, Kanye! Beyonce is great, but she never would have wanted that–she can stand on her own! Taylor deserved her moment. You arrogant jerk!!! Your true heart was revealed when you went out there and did that. Why is everyone else embarrassed for you and you aren’t even embarrassed for yourself. Assanine!

emme lily | 9/13/2009, 11:46 pm EST

i never want to hear about kanye again. i’m totally done with him.

sam | 9/13/2009, 11:46 pm EST

beyonce desrved that award i love kanye but what he did was not cool

No Longer a Kanye Fan | 9/13/2009, 11:46 pm EST

OMG…I loved Kanye’s song Love Locked Down…I had been singing it all day today, BUT when I saw what Kanye did to poor Taylor Swift, our family agreed we will NO LONGER support Kanye’s music, I don’t care if he has THE BEST in the world, we will not download or buy any of his music. SHAME ON YOU KANYE..how could you do that to poor young Taylor Swift….a magical moment for a sweet girl..YOU ARE A BULLY OF THE WORST SORT..get over yourself. Your X-Fans FOREVER & an apology wont even work dude…

U suck as a person west! | 9/13/2009, 11:46 pm EST

I guess he was too stupid to realize the award winners are not chosen by him…If He doesn’t like the girls music, that’s fine, but keep your imbecilic trap shut! I personally think west is a classless and 100% talentless schmuck!! Furthermore, I think it was a blatantly racist and cowardly act…Imagine the uproar if someone like Springsteen barged up on stage and did the same to Janet Jackson…It would have been labeled a racist incident, which is exactly what this was…West you suck so bad it defies description!

Really?> | 9/13/2009, 11:46 pm EST

Did someone really just call Kanye west a musician.. I completely diagree with that remark. However i agree that hes quite an Ass hole. That was Swifts moment.. Can you say Immature? i mean really………

RACISM??? | 9/13/2009, 11:47 pm EST

Kanye was wrong for stealing her shine, but racist, not even close. He was just Kanye. That’s his persona besides she’s 19, and she looks about the same age as her primary demographic she’ll be on the vmas for a few more years.
Racism??? WOW

Anonymous | 9/13/2009, 11:47 pm EST

Have to laugh at the rocket scientist that thinks it takes “balls” to embarras a teenage girl.

It’s not that Kanye has bigger “balls” than others. It’s that others have at least a modicum of common courtesy.

Kevin | 9/13/2009, 11:47 pm EST

Typical black person. Kanye West hates white people.

Emily | 9/13/2009, 11:47 pm EST

You know, I don’t want Kanye to apologize. Why bother? Everyone knows he wouldn’t mean it. It would be empty words that would win over some people, but the rest would know he’s full of turnip. Props to Beyonce for her class. Wasn’t a fan before, but will give her another listen now. As for taylor- I feel bad for her. I mean, she may not win another award, so now that’s her memory of her win. It’s kind of terrible. I hope the rest of her night goes better.

JayDee | 9/13/2009, 11:48 pm EST

Get a life and stop crying!!!! Kanye ain’t scared to tell the world the truth. He’s done it and continues to do it. When 99% of us are sitting here calling him names and calling him bad names, have done nothing today, yesterday or tomorrow to stay true to yourself. Kanye did! p oint blank….if you scared, say you scared. But Kanye is being Kanye, not you!

Wow | 9/13/2009, 11:48 pm EST

I really don’t think it’s his fault, he is the voice of a generation and all. Someone had to speak for it…

Kanye is a jerk. I hope he was thrown out of the VMAs. That said Wale is just as bad for defending such terrible behavior. I am happy to hear that Beyonce invited Taylor Swift back onstage; good for her for having a little class unlike the other morons at the VMAs.

Dakota | 9/13/2009, 11:49 pm EST

I was a fan of Kayne before the VMA’s and am no longer a fan after the VMA’s. Kanye, you can take your politically correct “apology” and shove it! Again, I like you before but not now. Your performance was sOOOOO low class!!! Ultimate tackiness!!!

lis | 9/13/2009, 11:49 pm EST

no john i do not think it was a rascist thing i feel it was an ego thing. but beyonce has gotten herself a bunch of fans now for that kind gesture. way to go beyonce and shame on u kanye that was very immature.

Yeah it was wrong, but this kind of stuff is what MTV kills for. It has got us talking and will keep people watching the next VMA’s. But a dumb move on Kanye, Taylor has got a fan base that is crazy faithful, and most of them like Kanye too.. well they did.

Kila | 9/13/2009, 11:51 pm EST

Hey it is what it is. Its the truth. HOWEVER his opinion does have a time and a place that was not the time and was not his place to be at that moment. But she does suck to listen to live.

Kanye’s a self-involved jerk who thinks the stage is his to take whenever he feels like it. Is more evidence needed? He should be banned from the VMAs for life.

Kanye obviously showed a complete lapse in judgment. He ruined a night Taylor was supposed to cherish forever. Although he is a good artist he is a shady person. I hope he and his fans are ashamed at the complete disrespect he showed toward not only Taylor but MTV and the fans. I truly believe he will always be remembered as the guy who ruined a young girls speech.

anonymous | 9/13/2009, 11:54 pm EST

Yes, everyone is totally entitled to their own opinion, but ruining someone’s moment in front of the whole world: not so cool. I got respect for Kanye’s music. Always been a fan. But man oh man, I’m disappointed.

Doesn’t matter if its Taylor Swift or anybody else – a professional and fellow “musician” just does not do this to another artist. What would he do if somebody did this do him? The only good that could come of this is that it ends Kanye West’s career. I’ve had quite enough of him.

Jackson | 9/13/2009, 11:56 pm EST

For you heartless losers who feel that West was “just speaking his mind” and this was hilarious, please let me know when your wedding or child’s birth will be, so I can burst in and “speak my mind” about what a douche your husband/wife is. Just speaking my mind, yo. For the LOLs!

Everyone is appalled, but they will get over it because he is one of the hottest artists and best producers around. This business is about making money, and Kanye makes money. hes known for being immature and an ass, but his fan base is huge and the vast majority of them do not even know who Taylor is, nor do they care. Just stating facts.

You guys kill me do you really think Kanye committed suicide for stating the truth Beyonce should have won, I do think it was rude, and distasteful, but it’s the vma’s, and Taylor who sings country music should not have even been there this was MTV NOT CMT.

Kanye made a mistake white people do it and it’s ok a black guy does it and your ready to get a rope, and you wonder why people from all over the world look at you the way they do.

I have to say that im not a Fan of all 3, Taylor, Beyonce and Kanye. So im not posting this as a fan but as a person that was utterly disgusted. Weither or not it was Kanye that did this and not someone else, is besides the point for me.

What a utterly disrespectful thing to do to another person, especially someone that “CLAIMS” to be a role model. She is 17.. it dosent matter if you didnt like her video, it dosent matter if a lot of people thought Beyonce’s was better. Fact of the matter is that Taylor won, how dare anyone storm the stage, grab the microphone and do that. It wasnt staged youy morons.. didnt you hear she was bawling backstage.

I think that the biggest barb was that he had the nerve to apologise to her mother and then do it on his blog. COMON mr moneybags, mr wonderful.. you can do SOOO much better than that.
Oh yeah and Karmas a bitch.. hope you arent tooo crushed over the fact that you wont really get invited to anything anymore.

I thought he had a good mother, I would’ve thought she’d teach him manners. Whether everyone in the world even agreed with his “opinion” doesn’t matter, you just don’t do that, it’s rude. If she got an award, then it was deserved since it’s voted for – obviously majority ruled. Geez

Kanye-is-a-moron | 9/14/2009, 12:00 am EST

Hey, how funny is it that Beyonce won the bigger award? Kanye couldn’t be patient enough to find that much out. He went out there in front of everyone and showed:

1) his as*
2) a total lack of respect for other artists
3) his IQ – or lack there of…
4) some kind of twisted reverence for Beyonce…however it backfired and put her on the spot, putting more distance between him and her than before
5) That he needs “shock-moments” in the media to keep his career going – a’la Paris Hilton…

Good job Kanye – keep up the good work… I swear you’re not an as*hole…I swear. Take a big step backwards and look at yourself for a minute… you’re just not that important dude…seriously

Disgusted | 9/14/2009, 12:01 am EST

I’m sick of Kanye acting like a brat and then apologizing later as if that makes okay. It doesn’t. He’s old enough to know better.

Kanye has and will always be a disgusting low life. Talk about someone desperate for attention at the expense of Taylor Swift. Just because Beyonce doesn’t god forbid win an award the world is going to stop revolving. Please, give Taylor Swift credit for a great year and selling a whole lot of music. She deserves her chance to shine. People lose awards, Kanye likes making everything about the “poor me, race thing” all the time. It gets old. Beyonce knows it was wrong and she had to redeem herself by bringing Taylor back on stage. I hope he felt good about making this young girl cry. MTV used to be fun and good. It’s become a trashy, disgusting show, what a disappointment for young people watching it.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 12:02 am EST

ok i agree wit u guys that Kanye was in the wrong but dont try 2 make this into an issue of race. Kayne just spoke his mind and thats all. Maybe he shouldn’t have done it but Taylor got her moment 2 shine anyway so it’s not all that bad.

Everyone know what he did was wrong. Opinions are in the eye of the beholder, however, speaking about his mother whom is no longer here and had nothing to do with what he did is wrong, speaking about his mother is even worse than what he did, and it contradicts the point. Two worngs don’t make a right, we hope that all of our mother have installed this in their children.

Two worngs don’t make a right, we hope that all of our mother have installed this in their children.

dee | 9/14/2009, 12:02 am EST

Kanye has and will always be a disgusting low life. Talk about someone desperate for attention at the expense of Taylor Swift. Just because Beyonce doesn’t god forbid win an award the world is going to stop revolving. Please, give Taylor Swift credit for a great year and selling a whole lot of music. She deserves her chance to shine. People lose awards, Kanye likes making everything about the “poor me, race thing” all the time. It gets old. Beyonce knows it was wrong and she had to redeem herself by bringing Taylor back on stage. I hope he felt good about making this young girl cry. MTV used to be fun and good. It’s become a trashy, disgusting show, what a disappointment for young people watching it.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 12:02 am EST

This our century: that was the most ignorant thing I have ever heard in a long time. Get off the internet, you are dumbing it down.

Such a grown man you are Kanye, stealing the mic from a child pretty much.

Kanye should be permenantly uninvited from the vma’s,His music is lame and he has nothing to offer the award show anyway.

anon | 9/14/2009, 12:03 am EST

Tim | 9/14/2009, 12:03 am EST

taylor swift is too hot to be treated like that

seems kind of racist | 9/14/2009, 12:03 am EST

if you look at his face when she gets announced he smiles and then goes immediately flat. Can you imagine if a white guy did that to a black girl?

Dale | 9/14/2009, 12:03 am EST

Like to see him tear the mic out of Toby Keiths hand or any man for that matter and no it is not racial hes just a punk

Disappointed in Kanye... | 9/14/2009, 12:04 am EST

Kanye has and always will make great music. I agree with all of you that what he did was wrong, but to a certain extent, he was right.

I agree with everyone, what he did to her was morally wrong. Taylor won the award fair and square, but he didn’t have to storm the stage AND interrupt her acceptance speech.

What most of you guys are saying is a little extreme. The guy made a mistake, but that doesn’t mean we have to degrade him and put him down saying he’s racist because I can think of PLENTY of times when caucasion’s have said worse things. At least he APOLOGiZED. All you bloggers that are sitting on here saying you won’t support him anymore are overreacting. You know as soon as this all blows over and he comes out with another hit, you’ll be sitting there bobbing your head to the music as if nothing ever happened.

Kerith Kentish | 9/14/2009, 12:04 am EST

Hopefully this move will open even more of the world to what an ass you are. You are no artist, Kanye.

soustar | 9/14/2009, 12:06 am EST

I think it was his cheap attempt to get some media attention. Now he will be the talk for days to come. Even beyonces reaction was priceless to his outburst. I am so happy that beyonce let taylor give her speech…..she stepped out of her lime light to allow a young up and coming artist to have the MOMENT she deserved. Kanye grow up!!!

Disgusting | 9/14/2009, 12:06 am EST

As a an of country music, I’m very happy to see a VMA go to a country artist. Kanye stealing Taylor Swifts time to shine was unprofessional and downright disgusting. If he ever wins an award, I hope someone steals the mic from him and tells the world what he really is… a fucking asshole.

wow | 9/14/2009, 12:06 am EST

kanye just made taylor swift very very famous

Becca | 9/14/2009, 12:06 am EST

to “this our country” ok so if he was white people would still think that was a dick move. im white and i liked his music and had respect for him…everytime a black person does something stupid and people cmplain that doesnt mean its racism. if eminem did the same thing everyone would react the same way. im tired of being called a racist if i dislike something someone of another race does. its absolutely insane and im so sick of it.
some people r just absolutely stupid and ignorant.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 12:07 am EST

He cant even sing his own songs. The douche bag lip sings his own stuff, and he gets upset that someone won that he didnt want to win. It would have been differnt if he won an award and someone stole the mike from him.

music lover | 9/14/2009, 12:07 am EST

I think kanye is so childish for doing that to taylor. I listen to pretty much all genre of song and her song can cross any genre. she is a great role model to girls to day. And i think taylor writes song from her heart. I also admire beyonce for giving Taylor her chance. And to kanye you are very disrespectful to taylor. I hope someone does the same thing to you if you win anything else. what an ass

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 12:07 am EST

I personally think the whole incident was staged.

MTV just loves the VMAs to have these controversial ‘moments’, where people talk about it the next day.

I would not be surprised if Kanye did the whole thing, at MTV’s insistance.

Another meaningless ‘apology’ from Kanye West, a man with no musical talent whatsoever. He is rude, ignorant, obnoxious, classless, sociopathic, and without a clue. As for Wale (whoever he is), you CAN fault a man when he has no right to storm a stage and hijack a young woman’s moment of glory. I truly hope that this is a major nail in the coffin of Kanye West’s inexplicable career.

Kanye West is a blustering fool. I am so tired of hearing his name and hearing all of the ridiculous things he says. If you are a public figure you should educate yourself before you open your mouth. I am disgusted. Have some respect. No one really cares about his opinion anyway. He’s an idiot!

I don’t know which is worse, an egomaniacal full grown man that in the course of “keeping it real” embarrasses a teenage girl, or the his acolytes that condone such behavior.

Personally, if Swift was one of my loved ones, I would have punched big, bad, Kanye’s teeth down his throat. Those that cannot show a modicum of common courtesy/human civility deserve none in return.

Tracy | 9/14/2009, 12:11 am EST

Kanye West should be banned from MTV for life for his behavior. Hopefully….ALL ENTERTAINERS should take him to task for his lack of respect for another artist. Can you imagine if Beyonce had won and Tim Mc Graw would have came on stage and said Taylor Swift should have won!!! Taylor I’m going on amazon.com to purchase your CD as a show of support. Kanye West has showed he has absolutely no class. This is what happens when a person goes from drinking kool aid out of a pickel jar to champagne. PS This is a black person talking

Kris | 9/14/2009, 12:11 am EST

I didnt even watch the vma’s and i get on facebook and see a clip of the way kanye west treated taylor swift. how low do you have to be?? kanye, you’re a grown man who is bullying a teenage girl. you’re lucky there ARE people like beyonce who give the rap/r&b/hiphop community a good name when you try to trash it. i will no longer buy kanye west music. congrats to taylor swift. reading loves you!!

Kanye acted completely classless. If past behaviour wasn’t enough, he finally put an end to his career. Took away Taylor’s moment, did Beyonce no favors, and they asked to make it a night of Love in honor of Michael Jackson and he went against that. Way to go Kanye, disrespect your idol and two peers….and lose any and all respect you may have had left as an artist and human being. Try learning something from this and become a better person.

And racists should simply be quiet because most of us don’t want to hear your crap.

West may be known for a number of not-so-nice things, but he’s probably not the only one to have thought this way. And nobody is perfect so nobody should be pointing fingers at anyone. End of story.

Would Kanye still act like this big of a jerk if his mother was still around? I treat people the way I’d like to be treated and/or the way I want my loved ones to be treated. Would he like it if someone had jumped up on stage in front of him? Would he have liked it if someone had done that to his mother? Those are the kind of things that need to run through his mind before he acts; it’s the old adage of thinking before you speak that apparently he still hasn’t learned yet…and I definitely will refrain from purchasing his music.

blah blah | 9/14/2009, 12:25 am EST

if Beyonce loses in the “best female video” category how can she win “video of the year”? and beat the person she lost to an hour before??

kanye is insane. he must have some kind of mental disorder that prevents him from controlling his impulses. there must be some kind of medication for this. but i hope he stays of the meds and continues to entertain us. he’s not a loser, he’s not a genius, he’s just nuts.

falconium | 9/14/2009, 12:25 am EST

Maybe he can do an album with Chris Brown.

They can name it “2 Douche Crew”.

I don’t care if he apologized; that is an inexcusable thing to do in front of a large audience. With Kanye’s record in the past, he needs to be permanently banned from attending any event like this.

damn | 9/14/2009, 12:26 am EST

it was a publicity stunt… or he is dick riding beyonce and jay z… i wonder wat my man jay z thinks of this bull crap son?!?!?

Matt | 9/14/2009, 12:26 am EST

I just want to know how a video can lose in it’s own category, but win the overall best-in-show.

Jennifer | 9/14/2009, 12:27 am EST

I agree with everyone. Dont support him anymore, dont buy his CDs. He needs to pay for his actions. Thank you Kanye for making Miss. Swift even more famous! But beyond that, you are nothing.

Suz | 9/14/2009, 12:27 am EST

I think it’s horrible what Kanye did to Taylor!! I happened to flip to that channel and I wondered if it was a skit! I couldn’t believe it…. Kanye do you know how to tell Beyonce that you think she deserved it AFTER the show! How horrible she can’t get that moment back! I can’t wait to see what Ellen says tomorrow! pce!

matt m | 9/14/2009, 12:27 am EST

Kanye is a joke, I’m sorry dosnt always work He will never be mlk or malcom x like he wants to be taylor swift is always be a better person / performer than his b!tch a$$

san diego local | 9/14/2009, 12:27 am EST

kanye just because your talented and you survived a car accident doesn’t give you a right to be a dick to other artists..

im sure if your mom were around she wouldn’t condone to your ignorance.

show some respect.. your not that tight… kid cudi is the future and your the past… get over yourself

Jennifer | 9/14/2009, 12:28 am EST

Well kanye is telling everybody about hes real and he speaks his mind..well I believe there is a time and a place for everything.And what he did was just rude and wrong..he should of just stfu..kudos for beyonce for being the bigger person a more mature person.

And this is why I don’t want MTV… If Kanye have such a history with ruining people’s lives… why do they still invite him to come to these events? He needs to be fired from the entertainment industry and work as a trash man… because that’s pretty much all he’s good for. These things would never happen on CMT…

deeeeeeeee :) | 9/14/2009, 12:33 am EST

honeslty i thought beyonce was going to win but when taylor swift won it was surprising because nobody like TAYLOR(that sing country) wins at the VMA very often.. and for kanye to do that was kind of STUPID and RUDE.. it was her first time winning and he just F-up her moment. she going to remember that for life. i think that kanye is a good rapper but he just overeacted. i like beyonce but she was just there laughing like it was all a joke to her i think she just did that (letting taylor finish her speech) because it was the right thing to do so she wouldnt look bad for not doing it. i love her im a big fan but it just look it that way to me..sorry

Touche | 9/14/2009, 12:33 am EST

I lost a little respect for Kanye; i mean i’ll still buy his albums cause he’s material is nice but he needs to watch the outbursts. Taylor swift def didn’t deserve that.

Sharon L | 9/14/2009, 12:34 am EST

I think it is awesome that Kanye speaks his mind …. but … it shouldn’t be at the expense of hurting other people. The problem is that he thinks that his opinion is the right opinion, he thinks that his decisions are the right one’s, and obviously just has no regard for others. He is only showing that he is an extremist, and he, like other extremists, do whatever they need to, to make a point, no matter the cost.

kanye's a coward | 9/14/2009, 12:34 am EST

His website:

“Site upgrades in progress

We’re upgrading the site so we had to temporarily make it unavailable. Don’t worry, we’ll have everything put back together in a jiffy so please check back later.”

He’s such a coward that he can’t fathom having to take criticism from his own fans, so he shuts down his website with some lame-ass “site maintenance” excuse. Ignorant bastard, he just committed career suicide, and no amount of apologizing can undo the damage, because he’s done this before and people tolerated it, but tonight was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

Kanye=Dumbass | 9/14/2009, 12:34 am EST

Ok this isn’t his first outburst, so in a way I’m not surprised. I just think it’s bullshit that MTV keeps asking him back after all of the stunts he pulls. Taylor Swift in no way deserved being disrespected like that. She is an amazing artist and will never be able to forget this. He needs to get a life and learn manners. Not everything is about you Kanye, so get over it!

ps your apology sucked and it in no way deserves to even be recognized as one you jackass.

Ron | 9/14/2009, 12:34 am EST

I liked kanye and have all his albums but but i’ll never buy another thing he’s involved with again. That is really the only way we can make a statement about how wrong this was. He continuously feels the need to just do whatever the hell he wants. I’m no longer supporting a grown man who acts like he’s 12.

MTV, Get Off the Air | 9/14/2009, 12:35 am EST

I don’t watch MTV and don’t listen to any of the artists nominated for the award, but it was clearly a big moment for a young up and coming artist like Taylor Swift, and for an egomaniac like Kanye West to forever steal that moment is absolutely disgusting.

And even if Swift wasn’t deserving (I have no idea about such things) Beyonce’s video was nothing special at all. Kayne West is a simple idiot, plain and simple.

LuLu | 9/14/2009, 12:38 am EST

I’ll admit Kanye’s Music is Great! But Damn he needs to keep his ignorant comments to himself. That was very rude and disrespectful of him. What an assbag seriously. Taylor deserved it just as well as Beyonce did she worked just as hard. Kanye calls it “keeping it real” well I call it stupidity which is what mostly comes out of his mouth (when he’s not making songs). So to Kanye get knowledge and stop the stupidity because the world is not out to get you & to Taylor you deserved it girl and keep it up =]

No one deserves that kind of disrespect that kanye showed towards taylor! She has worked hard and is a great young artist! Kanye better be ready. & too put Beyonce on the spot like that! He is crazy! Beyonce would never even THINK about doing something that ignorant and disrespectful. Win like a man, Lose like a man. He did that to himself, so he is going to have to pay for it one way or the other!

HAN | 9/14/2009, 12:41 am EST

Classic Kanye | 9/14/2009, 12:42 am EST

People are seriously stupid if they think that this will affect Kanyes career. he is a hip hop artist. his fan base does not give a kick about taylor swift and white kids will continue to try and be cool by buying his music, because to them supporting a hip hop artist is way cooler than stading up for a country singer that they probably never even cared about anyway. Different fan bases people!
PS This is the MTV crowd you are talking about. They do not care about anything but what makes them feel good.

Most of the people that are so affected by Kanyes behaviour, are not familiar with him or his music in the least and therefore not fans and therefore your opinions do not count in his eyes (or in his fans eyes for that matter). hes got a big ego!!! he doesnt give a fck! and his fans love it

MuhBawlzOnIt | 9/14/2009, 12:42 am EST

Ok, we all know that Kanye likes to further his career every once in a while by causing a big scene at any given awards show, but did he really have to screw up a little girls first ever VMA? Come on Kanye! What the hell!?!?

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 12:42 am EST

Technically, Kanye never said she didn’t deserve the award; he just said Beyonce had the best video of all times. I don’t agree with what Kanye did because that was wrong for stealing her spotlight but he did speak what a bunch of people were thinking. He just said it at the wrong time and place.

I like that Taylor Swift’s song but I don’t think she deserved that award. We’ve all seen the videos and movies about the unpopular, ugly girl who goes after the hot guy with the cheerleader girlfriend. It’s such a cliche’…nothing new or special. Beyonce’s video was popular and abstract in a way and thousands of people spent hours trying to learn that dance.

The point I’m getting at is that it was wrong and disrespectful of Kanye to say those things on stage but what he said was true.

***Think about this: Everyone knows Kanye says bad and unexpected things when he gets on stage, so why did the MTV staff let him on while Taylor was speaking. Personally, I think MTV let him up because they knew something dramatic would happen and all they care about is ratings.

Truth | 9/14/2009, 12:43 am EST

It’s a matter of time before he get the chance to “speak thru the wire” again. This time it will be from a pissed off american not a car crash.

Zen411 | 9/14/2009, 12:43 am EST

Nothing I can say that hasn’t already been said.

Kanye is selfish and the antithesis of a professional.

I was at Bonnaroo in 2008 when he made a fool of himself, keeping “fans” up until 4:30 in the morning to see his show. I ceased being a Kanye fan then and this made me hate him as a human being.

Stop being so full of yourself, you complete waste of talent.

The bigger surprise ... | 9/14/2009, 12:44 am EST

Am I the only one who is surprised to hear that MTV still plays videos? I thought they converted to a reality-TV format years ago, airing nothing but the crappiest programs televison has to offer?

Way to go Kanye! You’re so smart! You’re sales are going to skyrocket! Obviously someone’s missing a pair of nuts. How old are you?? You make me sick. How pathetic. Let me say I’m proud to say I’ve never spent a cent on your garbage and never will!

Mr. Norace | 9/14/2009, 12:45 am EST

Who cares whether he’s black or white? I don’t care. What he did is wrong and inexcusable and shows what respect he has for other people. Kanye is a terrible example for the youth of our country. I hope he grows up and sets a better example sometime soon… or gets out of the music business because he’s a loser to me.

What a fucking idiot! | 9/14/2009, 12:45 am EST

what a dick. i’m glad i downloaded all his records and he hasn’t gotten a dime from me.

also, someone called it “reverse racism.” there’s no such thing. racism is racism. wether it’s white people to black people, black to white, asian to white, etc., there’s no “reverse” to it.

Marquita | 9/14/2009, 12:46 am EST

I did see Kanye interrupt Taylor during her speech, but honestly, when I heard them say Taylor swift, “I was like, who the hell is taylor swift?” “Why didnt Beyonce win…?” But I honestly did not expect Kanye to do what he did whether he agreed with the nomination or not. She is just a kid and that was her time to shine. To kanye- you should honestly think about what u say b$4 u say it, or consider other ppl’s feelings. Real recognizes real, and a real person would have just voiced their opinion after the show during an interview by simply saying, “Congratulations to Taylor for winning such an amazing award, I honestly thought it would have gone to Beyonce, but Taylor is extremely talented and it was well deserved.” There is a time and place for everything.

Publicity Stunt | 9/14/2009, 12:46 am EST

I will never understand why Kanye thinks he is entitled to be so rude and obnoxious. Not only will I no longer purchase any of his music, but I want my favorite radio stations to know my opnion… I just don’t want to hear his music at all. Period.

Joanna | 9/14/2009, 12:52 am EST

Wow, why bring race into this?

Kanye WAS rude, but cmon now… this is the freaking VMAs, not the GRAMMYS! For people to think he ruined Taylor’s life or stole a huge moment from her – give me a break! For Taylor to cry backstage just shows her age and her innocence (which is both good and bad).

As for his opinion that Beyonce’s video deserved the win – how can you not agree with him?? Taylor’s video is so typical, boring, unimaginative and just plain easy to make. Beyonce’s was beyond creative, fresh and technically superb and challenging. And no matter how much you hate Kanye and love Taylor, you just can’t deny i!

punishment | 9/14/2009, 12:53 am EST

Ok, what do all think would be a better punishment for kanye…

Put a Michael Vick jersey on him and have people in dog costumes beating him mercilessly?

OR

Having him wear a fish costume and have another guy in a fish costume putting it in his pooper while he eats fish sticks?

Reverse It... | 9/14/2009, 12:54 am EST

Had the colors been reversed, Jesse Jackson and Rev. Sharpton would be picketting MTV headquarters this entire upcoming week. In this case, it will be considered “Just Kanye” and will be forgotten. It’s unfortunate that Kanye (a Black man) does this…and then we wonder why Blacks feel they need to keep fighting for equal rights in this society. Look in the mirror and develop self-control, and racism will dicipate.

I liked kanye and have all his albums but but i’ll never buy another thing he’s involved with again. That is really the only way we can make a statement about how wrong this was. He continuously feels the need to just do whatever the hell he wants. I’m no longer supporting a grown man who acts like he’s 12.

You can start by not buying the latest Jay Z CD that is produced by Kanye West.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 12:56 am EST

If you really don’t know who Taylor Swift is, go Wiki her before you show your ignorance. She is not just a teeny bop one hit wonder. She was the biggest selling artist of 2008. Not to mention, she actually writes her music!

MARFULION | 9/14/2009, 12:56 am EST

I feel kanye, he just doesnt like the idea of a country singer and a song with a bit too much country influence being sided with pop songs. He didnt say the right way but whatever, fuck country.

Kay kay | 9/14/2009, 12:57 am EST

Okay so Kanye’s apology was rediculous. Especially the part about Beyonce’s video being the best of the decade. Bullshit. I don’t mind beyonce but that song is the most annoying song that I’ve heard since lady Gaga’s “just Dance”. I’d rather run out in the middle of the freeway and play chicken with traffic than listen to that entire song or watch that entire video. Taylor deserved it and he’s lucky that it wasn’t Pink that won or she would have kicked his sorry ass. He’s such a cocky bastard, but he did get what he wanted.

It’s acceptable to declare someone undeserving of an award when they ARE undeserving of one. Case in point: Taylor Swift.

She only won that award because of her relationship with MTV and to spread the awards among all genres of music.

I honestly don’t think that all of the racism hullabaloo is relevant. We all know that it was not the time or place for him to do that. I feel that Kanye has disgraced his fans and his fellow artists with his outburst. We can thank Beyonce though for being graceful enough to let Taylor Swift come out and give her acceptance speech.

Kanye spoke his mind and the truth. It’s about time and I’m proud to see this sort of “screw em if they can’t handle the truth” attitude which started with our huge victory with President Barak Obama and his, “yes we can” attitude.

Seriously guys, he supposedly dates a white woman. I don’t see how what he did was racist, because he thought a black artist had a better video than a white artist? So all those who voted for Swift are ALSO racist right? Use some logic.

What he did was wrong and stupid though, not racist.

nat | 9/14/2009, 1:04 am EST

all respect due to kanye for stating his opinion but he could have chosen a way more appropriate time to voice it. beyonce is talented and all but taylor deserved to win. he was wrong for his actions and probably will be banned, he shouldve thought that through before he jumped on stage. i really commend beyonce for giving taylor her moment also

redbrix | 9/14/2009, 1:09 am EST

This is all about generating and keeping buzz in the industry. Gameplay on Kanyes part.
He did something , everyone is talking about it. Kanye wins.
Thats how the game is played. It really has nothing to do with Ms. Swift , I’m sure he targeted her because it would make the biggest impact and generate the most buzz.

What he did was repulsive , no doubt, but he is just playing the publicity game.

Ultimately , Taylor will become more popular and so will he.

Sad but true.

Sorry but... | 9/14/2009, 1:09 am EST

I don’t get it. Why does anyone think Beyonce’s video should have won? I think that it fell short of who she is. I love her and was disappointed in the video.

I feel sorry for Taylor, what he did was absolutely tasteless and appalling. I haven’t seen her video, but how is winning decided…obviously enough people liked her video more.

Da Vinci | 9/14/2009, 1:10 am EST

It is worse that calling Obama a liar. Kanye should have to apologize in front of Congress!

Rima | 9/14/2009, 1:10 am EST

This has absolutely nothing to do with race. Kanye didn’t believe that Taylor shouldn’t have one, and neither did a whole bunch of other people, it’s not because she’s white. That’s just ridiculous. Everyone know’s Beyonce’s video was huge and it’s pretty accepted that she’s more talented than Taylor. It was wrong of Kanye to do that but his point was right.

I hope that black people don’t catch slack for what kanye did…its just unfortunate that it will happen because he is a role model for many people and a sort of spokesperson for black individuals. I think the whole racism thing stems from his views since the whole thing where he put the president on blast for katrina.

what?? | 9/14/2009, 1:13 am EST

I read this article but haven’t seen the actual show. What confuses me is that Taylor won best female video and Kanye jumped out of his seat to whine about it. If he had waited later on in the evening he would have seen that Beyonce won best video of the year according to this article. He is pretty much just a little whiny brat that made a complete jackass of himself. There was no need for a tantrum because Beyonce WON. Moron.

The real bad guy here is MTV for letting him go on stage. I wouldn’t be surprised if MTV even helped plan it. It’s not that different from their usual reality show specatcles after all. It was mean to do that to Taylor Swift for ratings – I mean she is like 17 isn’t she? MTV makes their money off of exploiting others and this is just another case of it.

i wonder what’s going to make him realize that this is the real world and you can’t just throw a temper tantrum every time things don’t go the way you think they should. there’s a time and place for everything, but obviously he’s too immature/egotistical to realize that.

I don’t know a whole lot about him, nor do i voluntarily listen to his music, but just from that moment, I can call him an insensitive, heartless (hah, ironic, wasn’t that the name of one of his songs?) douche. Sure, he has the right to speak his mind, as does everyone else, but holy mighty god, there’s something he’s definitely lacking in that aspect of free speech, and that’s TACT.

ahem | 9/14/2009, 1:24 am EST

You don’t know that it’s racial. You do know that he’s egomaniacal and classless. Insecure white guys reflexively calling it racial generally feel threatened anytime a black guy is “out of place.”

We need to take a stand against this unbridled arrogance. People like kanye look at us and laugh at our lives, they just want to make their millions and piss on everyone else. Someone below me mentioned kanye’s outburst was “Takin’ a stand [...](and) good for CHANGE.” Change? Do you think giving megalomaniacs like this ass power is good for change?

This soon-to-be-has-been is an idiot. If his interruption of the ceremony wasn’t an indicator, then his subsequent apology nailed it. One thing he is smart enough to realize, is that music has a shelf life. A star like Beyonce’ will still shine but West is already fading. He took a last shot at getting attention. He probably isn’t, “crazy ya’ll” and in the spirit of keeping it “real”. He’s frustrated because he’s yesterday. Looks like Taylor Swift is today.

He doesn’t need to “feel bad for Taylor”. He can save that for his sorry little self.

PRES OBAMA & KANYE AGREE! | 9/14/2009, 1:32 am EST

“They can’t stop us. Let’s go get this done.” -President Barak Obama

That’s the fact jack, and you dolts get all freaked out when you hear Kanye speak the truth, you can’t handle the truth! You can’t stop us. We are going to get this done from the top down! Kanye and President Obama will not lose they will continue to win win win with the balls and determination to get it done in spite of what people think.

It’s time to stop beating around the bush, mincing words and worrying about what people think. In the words of President Obama, “They can’t stop us. Let’s go get this done.” Kanye thanks for your honesty and for being a fearless vehicle for change in this country like our President.

-how does his rude outburst promote him as a “vehicle for change”?

JacquiX | 9/14/2009, 1:34 am EST

Slow down people, this isn’t about race, this is about basic consideration of another human being! Kanye obviously thought his opinion was important enough to jump up on stage and ruin Taylor’s speech, what he fails to realize is that nobody really gives a sh*t what he thinks. I’d personally like to see him blacklisted from future events…

ewww its kanye | 9/14/2009, 1:34 am EST

Kanye is a douche! Soo clASSy of him. He has serious ego problems. He’ll reap what he sows.

autumn | 9/14/2009, 1:34 am EST

Kanye west is a 30-something year old man,
Taylor swift is 17, he doesn’t deserve his fame if this is what he’s going to do with it. Its a shame, he is talented, but if being an asshole to teenagae girls is what he stands for and is how he “keeps it real” than to hell with him. How about he does that to someone who can defend themselves? Huh? Coward is what he is.

voice of reason | 9/14/2009, 1:34 am EST

EnoughAlready | 9/14/2009, 1:34 am EST

Kanye calls that an apology? It wasn’t an apology, but his justification because the idiot still thinks what he did was right and “real”. What is real is that the rules for voting were made by others, not him. It wasn’t his show, his rules, his awards, or his “world” for that matter. Therefore, he had no right to hijack the show or give his opinion…that’s real.

He’s so self-centered that he thinks his opinion overshadows the world and that is his only reality. He is absolutely delusional. If he can’t step into the “real” world and behave at awards shows, he needs to stay home. Or, start his own awards show with his own rules, so his opinion would actually matter. He should be banned from awards shows for a while. The public is tired of juvenile behavior serving as a role model for our youth. We’re tired of outbursts of his opinion as if he’s the only person on the planet. That is “real”.

What a pathetic excuse for a ‘man’ and I use that term loosely. A man wouldn’t bully a young female. A man would know when and where to state his opinion. A man would know what is “real” in the world, what is “real” in his make-believe world, and the difference between the two. And, a man would know that no apology or justification will ever take away the hurt he inflicted tonight. I’m not a Taylor Swift fan, but I am a fan of humanity in general. Kanye simply doesn’t fit in the humanity category. He shouldn’t be at any awards show until he shows he can join the human race.

Roffe | 9/14/2009, 1:34 am EST

Kanye lil bitch ass is just kissin some Jay-Z ass, after Jay-Z let the lil bitch produce his CD. Hopefully Beyonce and Jay-Z realize what a liability this jag-off is and distance themselves from him.

Ken | 9/14/2009, 1:34 am EST

Kanye is a clueless goon. Every time he pulls one of these stunts, he digs himself deeper and deeper. I’m glad he got thrown out of the VMAs afterwards.

First of all, what he did was inexcusable. However, if we want to teach our children not to hate and we want racism to be a thing of the past then we really need to get ourselves in check. There was no reason to turn this into a race issue. If all parties would have been of the same race what would you have all said then? This was simply a matter of absolute disregard for the feelings of another HUMAN BEING. The black and white comments seem to be an avenue that people with no love in their hearts possess. Bottom line: The whole thing should have never happened to anyone regardless of color, wealth, or popularity status. We need to be respectful to one another.
God Bless. :)

Katy | 9/14/2009, 1:35 am EST

Ok….I am not dissing Beyonce. But I feel the only reason why Kanye said that crap was because Beyonce is black and in her video for “Single Ladies” all she was doing was flaunting her goods. All she was promoting was sex. She might as well be dancing on a pole the way she looked. Kanye was sticking up for his race and the fact that he liked what he was looking at. Poor Taylor Swift who is actually talented(doesn’t have the same stupid repetitive lyrics through the whole damn song) gets her time taken away by an ABSOLUTE MORON! MTV only brings people like Kanye West, Russell Brand and other idiots back on their shows is because they need the high ratings. Its rather disgusting. I applaud Taylor Swift, and Beyonce for letting Taylor have her moment. That was really nice. I am happy there is some good in people.

Oh and Kanye….I think you need to go back to school or something. Take an English class. Learn some class. Your apology was as sorry as your ugly ass hairdo.

in-MO | 9/14/2009, 1:35 am EST

I am more shocked at the out-cry after the fact. We all know Kanye is an a**, but what is being said here is even more shocking and blood curdling. I am Caucasian and ashamed of the “he must be a racist because he was doing his “Kanye Thing” accusations. Has anyone noticed the race card being played even more than it ever has been? Stop making everything about what race a person is and focus on what a loser the man “Kanye”, person “anyone else that is also a loser”, is.

trevor | 9/14/2009, 1:35 am EST

i never really even liked taylor that much, but that was really fucked up. he even sucks at apologizing. what an ass

anon | 9/14/2009, 1:36 am EST

Seriously…. this is pathetic! His apology sounds so fake and made up on the spot just to save his ass.
When are people gonna understand that HIP HOP IS NOT THE ONLY KIND OF MUSIC OUT THERE?!? and to diss something thats different!
I’m not a huge fan of Taylor Swift, but goodness she’s talented and deserved it. Thank God she won.
“Real fan of pop culture”… yeah right.

What does pop sound for?? POPULAR!!

Variety of music and fans on mtv… that’s what should be real!
what an idiot.
sure, he may be rich. sure, he may be famous. but this twat has nothing if he doesn’t have class or the ability of humbleness.
This man certainly knows how to ruin friends and impress his enemies.

I am concerned about the security at these events – NO ONE should ever be allowed to approach the stage unscheduled or uninvited. The only way he should have been on that stage is if he won or was scheduled to perform. It is NOT a black or white thing………..simply a stupidity thing which affects black and white people. Thankfully it wasn’t my daughter….I to would have approached the stage and handled it. Maybe he should consider another career anyway.

john | 9/14/2009, 1:39 am EST

THis guy is a LOSER. EVERYONE should boycott his “music” What he did tonight is nothing more than the classless behavior of a spoiled rotten A

Mikhail | 9/14/2009, 1:39 am EST

Let’s be clear am not nearly a fan of country music (Frankly the only thing I ever liked country was the outlaws like Johnny Cash)but there is no angle to justify anything here. You MAY not like her music, you MAY think someone else is entitled to it, perfectly reasonable and fair. But frankly the egomania required to feel entitled to go up there and disturb an awards ceremony is beyond my comprehension. Sorry Kanye reasonable human beings don’t behave like this end of story. Of course his particular stupidity/delusion should in no way justify the clearly racist backlash of some. Keep the focus people!

Ante | 9/14/2009, 1:39 am EST

Please tell me Kanye West won both categories for “Biggest Duchebag” and “Self Centered Asshole of the Year”. What a fabulous display of disrespect and no class. Let’s give him a hand.

All About Class. | 9/14/2009, 1:40 am EST

I don’t think this is about Race….I think this is about class. I mean just look at the situation: Beyonce and Taylor have class….Kanye obviously doesn’t. And for those of you who are posting racist remarks on here, you clearly don’t have any class either….you are just like Kanye. And yes this IS coming from a white girl.

Kanye needs to quit ripping mics out of girls’ hands and ripping off daft punk music. what a lousy person.

Definitely Not Staged | 9/14/2009, 1:42 am EST

Why in the hell would they want to stage this? It made the crowd angry and sad….not laughing like with the Eminem hoax. You say it was done for publicity, but why would any celebrity want to cause BAD publicity for themself and then have to deal with it later too? This was not staged, Kayne West is just that big of a douche. He even manages to be a douche in his “apology” to Taylor on his blog.

The R Cheeze | 9/14/2009, 1:43 am EST

Kanye West is such a bastion of intelligence. About the same level as a skunk, except the skunk might take acception to that comparison.

Nikki | 9/14/2009, 1:45 am EST

Fuck Kanye. He is the hugest egotistical bigot I know. Taylor is such a sweetheart and I thought it was so wonderful that Beyonce let Taylor have her moment.

WTF! | 9/14/2009, 1:46 am EST

That is what I thought as I watched what Kanye did to Taylor Swift. There is a time and place for everything, that was NOT the time nor the place!
I am not a Taylor Swift fan, but I do appreciate the fact that she is a VERY talented artist. She writes her own music, plays instruments and has creative decision over her video’s.
Kanye is just a douche bag….a real freaking douche bag!

commie-girl | 9/14/2009, 1:46 am EST

It doesn’t matter if you don’t like Taylor Swift or you think she shouldn’t have been on there because she is county, NO ONE should do that to another person. Race has nothing to do with it also she could have been black, white, blue, purple, or yellow he was just trying to get airtime. She won the award get over it….. if you don’t like it get over life sucks then you die….Yeah and I’m sure that apology was real, he was just trying to save face because his career is going nowhere…. his songs are horrible.

Jamie | 9/14/2009, 1:47 am EST

Everyone supporting Kanye West is a stupid heartless bastard.

I have nothing against him personally, but he’s a total fucking asshole. I don’t care if he was “bein’ real” or “speakin’ his mind” the fucker ruined one of, what was suppose to be one of the most amazing nights in Taylor’s life, and thats just fucking wrong. You don’t jump onto the stage like that while a young lady’s trying to make a grateful speech.

And for all you saying Taylor only won because she’s white, YOU’RE the racist pigs, not us.

All Kanye is, and has been his entire career, if you can call it that, is an immature, unprofessional, tantrum taking baby who’s ego is to big for his own good.

I can only imagine how embarrassed Beyonce must have felt, and how much Taylor felt like shit during those few moments.

annoyed | 9/14/2009, 1:49 am EST

What Kanye did was totally uncalled for! So yea he didnt think Taylor deserved to win so what I bet a bunch of other people may have felt the same way but you dont see them running on stage like that! he’s a grown man and should know the meaning of respect by now. I really don’t know what he was trying to accomlish but he only ended up making a fool out of himself. Taylor won fair and square if he had something to say he should have done it at a more appropriate time and given the girl her chance to shine!

Pink | 9/14/2009, 1:49 am EST

I wish I’d have won the award. I would have kicked his bitch ass on live TV. How would that be for some publicity you little pussy?

I am more than for free speech but to offend just to offend it is you’re respoxibility to regulate with out being overly judicial. but past what i have stated, Kenya should check how he comes across, because Taylor is the present and future, even if the future is not true in the ling run, MTV is all about the present, and beyond, and Beyonce is all about the present, and as far as the beyond the only time will tell.

His apology HAS to be sincere. After all, when you try to reach his blog as of 2:00AM ET, this SINCERE message appears:

“We’re upgrading the site so we had to temporarily make it unavailable. Don’t worry, we’ll have everything put back together in a jiffy so please check back later.”

What a lucky happenstance that ignorant behavior, followed by insincerity, is followed by an upgrade on his blog so no once can voice their opinions. Even his website lies.

Cannot believe how much of an ignorant, inconsiderate @$$hole Kanye West proves to be over and over again. Regardless of his feelings toward Taylor Swifts deserving of the award, she is indisputably hardworking, talented and a far better performer than Kanye. It’s time that he got some consequences for his ridiculous spectacles.

Cmon... | 9/14/2009, 2:00 am EST

MTV really should be thanking Kanye, I seen dudes talking about this on a SPORTS FORUM….DURING SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL DEBUT! Any publicity is good publicity, I really doubt Kanye’s career is over and done with. He’s a HIP HOP artist…Rap Artist do this thing ALL THE TIME to other artist. Look at M&M and his past and other rappers also…it would have been funny had he done it to Em though, Em would release a diss track so vile his career would REALLY be over. Really though, Rappers have done worst things and nothing has happened to their sales.

Kanye does something like this every year, it hasn’t killed him yet. He’ll just be the controversial artist.

Disappointed in society | 9/14/2009, 2:11 am EST

What a total asshole. Who does that, especially to a teenage girl who started her speech very humbly in the first place? No amount of apologies could erase the fact that he made her practically cry live on tv being broadcasted to millions. Even if he thinks Beyonce losing is worth all that trouble, he’s insane to think what he did was justified. She’ll never get that moment back or forget that embarrassment. Obviously Beyonce has much more class than he does and I’m glad to see he recognized the chance to give Taylor a moment. Beyonce won for best video of the year afterall, so he should feel really stupid right now.

Olivia | 9/14/2009, 2:11 am EST

That’s not even an apology…does he really think he’s that cool interrupting a teenage girl like that??

Not at all country | 9/14/2009, 2:13 am EST

What Swift does may be called country but it is country now, 25 years ago it would not have been country but pop. She is more pop than country. She deserved the award. Kanye just showed the world what an idiot he is again.

Kanye West sucks | 9/14/2009, 2:13 am EST

Kayne being an out of control colored person, should be given forty lashes.

Alyssa | 9/14/2009, 2:15 am EST

I don’t know what I find more astounding…his behaviour, or some of the comments here.
I like Taylor Swift, Beyonce, and even some of Kayne West (though I will never listen to him again simply out of principle). I don’t give a damn what colour any of them or anyone else happens to be – and I think any of you that believe the colour of anyone’s skin had something to do with this is a dumbshit racist who feels colour is all important.
But anyway. What Kayne has done has left me appalled. He is a grown man who ruined a huge moment for a teen girl. Perhaps he feels that he was right, and I’m sure that some people would agree that Single Ladies should have won. But it didn’t, and he should have been adult enough to accept that. His apology was merely a second slap in the face, I almost think he would have been better off pretending the incident never occurred.
I feel terrible for both Taylor Swift and Beyonce.

Chucktard | 9/14/2009, 2:15 am EST

HEY!..How come this comment got censored??

Can you imagine if Tim McGraw walked up there and took the mic out of Beyonce’s hand when she was 17..and said the same things Kanye did???

Of course there is a double standard here. McGraw would have been outcasted for life as a southern hick racist douchebag.

This double standard in race relations is actually wearing too many whities these days a little too thin….With that, I don’t think Kanye was trying to be racist….Just like a lot of white people.

CAN’T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG???

Somebody give Kanye a fishdk..He doesn’t deserve to be labeled a racist over this….Just an idiot

Kanye is an ass in person | 9/14/2009, 2:15 am EST

I’ve had the pleasure to have him in the studio where I work. He was rude, arrogant, and insulting to the people who write and produce Eminem. Seriously the NICEST people you could meet and he made quite an impression. Keep proving to us that you have no class little man…. It’s not about being real. It’s about being kind. It’s about not being insensitive and ignorant to the feelings of those around you. What a moron….

Who the hell are you too speak for “the troops” I’m serving and have been for a long time honestly I could careless, Kanye is full of himself, the dude sang an entire album in autotune. People still bought it and he got paid. He’s a funny guy if your laughing with him or at him. Taylor Swift I’m sure she is a nice girl but who really listens to the teenie boper stuff? Kanye is a funny idiot oh “Bush hates black peolpe” that might be true but the way Kanye said it was hilarious… Weather he wanted it to be funny or not. I’ll never forget the look on everyones face at that moment….priceless

SSB | 9/14/2009, 2:17 am EST

This is completely part of the reason so few young black males get ahead in the “real world.” Besides being the wrong type of role model for young men, Kanye contributes to an unrealistic vision of the type of attitude that gets peopel ahead. Kanye is talented and can get away with stunts; he has his money. People that live in the REAL world can never be accepted as a funtioning adult if they act like this.

JoJo | 9/14/2009, 2:18 am EST

Kanye just needs his ass kicked. He is a total asshole. You don’t take someone’s spotlight even if you disagree with everything. I hope everyone quits using race as a reason he done this. He is just a selfish asshole with no class, or morals.

Completely Disgusted in Tally | 9/14/2009, 2:29 am EST

I have absolutely no words for this man. He constantly feels like promoting his beliefs and plastering his blatantly crude opinion all over the media is somehow going to forward his agenda. At the end of the day, he’s an egotistical, thoughtless, cruel man who took what should’ve been the best moment in this girl’s life away from her. She’s a child? Does he have no soul? His apology was third-rate at best. He should be ashamed of himself.

LOL | 9/14/2009, 2:30 am EST

Just think it’s funny how outrages people are getting over this. The guy did something rude, no doubt…but people act like he went on the stage and punched Taylor and then spit in her mouth.

I’m going to go here but whatever, Michael can have odd relationships with little children, and other entertainers can do FAR worse…but what Kanye did was just soooo HORRIBLE it’s going to ruin his career?

Lets be serious, something stupid happenes during a MTV award every year and we forget about it. Whether it’s girls kissing, guys putting their genitals in a rappers face, rock stars fighting, or whatever it is, it is always forgotten.

Lets not go overboard with all the racist comments, and how he should die and hes one of the worst people in the world.

He did something incredibly rude, and this isn’t the first time he’s done something like this.

And a fun fact, for the next time you decide to open your racist mouth without knowing what you’re talking about, Kanye is the exact opposite of a thug and never has been, rapped about not being one, and was raised by a mother who was a college professor. racist.

B | 9/14/2009, 2:35 am EST

Here’s an impression of Taylor Miffed…. WaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHH….. Kanye bit my finger and it really hurt.

ahahahaha… White girl didn’t like her award moment to be ruined by a black guy, but she can’t undo what just happened!!! Kanye dipped his meat in her mouth.

LOL | 9/14/2009, 2:36 am EST

Also I don’t mean girls kissing is a bad thing (not at all *wink*) Just saying…every MTV award has some stunt for the gossipers to talk about every year. It’s odd that MTV is taking these vids down on Youtube isn’t it?

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 2:36 am EST

He has Narcissist Personality Disorder…. a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration, and a lack of empathy.Closely linked to self-centeredness. It is also referred to as “the god complex. Seriously Kayne, you need to get help. I once held alot of respect for you man. Your CD’s are now in the trash. No applogy can fix the hurt and humiliation you have caused Taylor.

same thing twice in 1 week | 9/14/2009, 2:37 am EST

I’m not taking up for kanye bcuz I think what he did was completely fucked up and disrespectful but this issue isn’t about race at all. I could understand if he did sumthing else this outrageous to a white person you would start 2 wonder. but what I honest think happen wasn’t about taylor or beyonce this was probably revenge from what senator whatever the guy’s name was yelled out and interuppted obama’s speech. I think he was just taking advantage of the moment and taylor just happened 2 be the person on stage. Think about it same thing diffrent events personal opinions in inappropriate places.

payback is a bitch | 9/14/2009, 2:39 am EST

someone should figure out how to relieve Kanye of all his assets, then dump him off on Skid Row where he belongs………………..

DaveS | 9/14/2009, 2:40 am EST

I don’t even understand how Kanye got that ego. He isn’t that talented, he is clearly unintelligent, and he contributes nothing of value to society.

How does someone like that get the impression that he has any standing whatsoever to rush the stage and steal the scene from someone who actually does have talent?

OMG!!! | 9/14/2009, 2:41 am EST

I hope someone will mail -email this to Kanye… I hope he realizes how everyone feels. I wnat Buy his CDs or Music ever again… PEOPLE it IS NOT a racist issue… Grow UP! Enough about him How about the way Beyonce let Taylor have her time… Or what I havn’t seen mentioned How about Taylor’s thank you speech, she held it together really well!!! YOU GO GIRLS… Beyonce stay away from Kanye he will pull you down…MTV Avoid Kanye like the Plague!!!

Joe | 9/14/2009, 2:42 am EST

I may not like her music but that wasn’t cool man,not at all..

mad white dude | 9/14/2009, 2:43 am EST

kanye makes us mad because were lossers on the internet without anything constructive to do. boo hoo. lets all take it personal. because our lives suck so much.

Can’t wait ’till someone interrupts one of his acceptance speeches!

Annalise | 9/14/2009, 2:47 am EST

no there is nothing wrong with speaking their mind but being disrespectful is totally different,,,he is so slack to embarass her like that…poor taylor deserved that award…it ain’t bout the coulour of your skin its about the talent this girl has,…yea beyonce maybe your was better but the people like taylors better…i think kanye should apologize to her face and make it up to her….it was nice of beyonce to do what she did…..hope it don’t happen again to taylor
A big congrats goes to taylor though ;)

wtf | 9/14/2009, 2:50 am EST

Kanye West makes chicago look bad.

Sami | 9/14/2009, 2:51 am EST

I don’t like Taylor Swift at all, and I think it’s funny how she says that she is “country” when she clearly isn’t. She’s like the Disney people. In photos she tries to be all hardcore. Her lyrics are crap and in no way did she deserve to win. BUT yes Kanye was being a huge jerk.

B | 9/14/2009, 2:53 am EST

Awwww… I’m sorry Taylor. Don’t cry baby, don’t cry. Everything will be awwwwight! You are so tough, all tough people cry backstage! Just watch some lifetime television to help you get over the shock. You are daddy’s wittle princess.

Disgusted | 9/14/2009, 2:53 am EST

This isn’t a race issue – this is about being a human being. What Kanye did is inexcusable. I would be just as irritated if the racial roles were reversed and a white guy dissed a black girl at the VMA’s. Regardless of the skin color, one should have enough common decency to allow the artist to give their acceptance speech. Thank god Beyonce is classy enough for both of them.

Aussie gal | 9/14/2009, 2:53 am EST

I don’t think the issue here is ‘racism’ at all. I think Kanye took away a important moment from Taylor, something that she worked hard for and that was rightfully hers. I would say the same if the roles were reversed. I dont understand why this is a race issue now??? very strange.

sum guy | 9/14/2009, 2:54 am EST

kanye was rite. next year the johnas bros will win best rap vid. wit dat sed he didnt need to do dat. wat a dik. @ da same time swift didnt even tell beyance thanks. ungrateful

never again | 9/14/2009, 2:55 am EST

i will never again listen to Kanye, what if a white man would have done that to a young black girl? It would have been considered RACIST and degrading, but if a black person does it, it is ok… somethings will never change

KANYE SHIT FACE | 9/14/2009, 2:56 am EST

WHAT THE FUUUCKKKKK!!!!! KANYE IS A DAMN UGLY BASTARD.. HOW COULD HE DO THIS TO POOR LITTLE TAYLOR. U JUST MAD CUZ U SUCK AND DIDNT GET AN AWARD..HAHAHA!!!! U DONT DESERVE IT SHIT FACE WITH UR UGLY FUCKED UP HAIR CUT. U GO BEYONCE UR A GOOD SPORT..

Emily | 9/14/2009, 2:59 am EST

How obnoxious, if he had any decency he would be ashamed of himself.

I feel so sorry for this poor young girl whose big moment was ruined with this public humiliation. She looked so upset.

Beyonce looked mortified. Did he actually think that she would appreciate his denigration of another artist in her name?

Kanye needs a kick up the backside. How pathetic that he needs to demean little girls to make himself feel like a big boy. Fooling only yourself idiot.

Grow up and find some manners before you bump into somebody who will knock them into you.

Aussie gal | 9/14/2009, 3:01 am EST

and why. is “Black American” saying that black people can’t be racist? if you are a human being, you can be racist. Stop distinguishing between white or black. We are the same. Yes, I know what happened to black people in America, what happened the Aboriginal People in Australia and the list goes on and on. I have no doubt that racism is still alive and well in the world, its sad. But, there is no reason to continue spreading hate (which is what you are doing). I’m white and I have absolutely nothing to do with America so why discriminate against me? I’ve been through war, close family of mine was killed just for having a specific religion, and I know who did it (which race and nationality) however I dont go around spreading hate like you. You are just another link in the chain. You need to hold what happened close to your heart, teach your children about it. But you shouldn’t hate.

BOA | 9/14/2009, 3:03 am EST

I wish I could say that I can’t believe some of the racial comments against both black and white people. The truth is simply that racism is still alive thanks to the idiotic rants of a few. Kanye’s actions were completely out of line but that gives none of you the right to make this about race of criticize the talent of others who are making millions doing what they do. Get over yourselves!

Black Americans | 9/14/2009, 3:04 am EST

Black Americans need to stop using their history as an excuse to hate on White people. I’m not white, but it is so wrong how they use racism to get away with everything.

It is so obvious that West is a racist and he’s is promoting his hate, while using his Black history as back up. Modern day white people love black people more than they love each other.

Stop using racism as an excuse to get things your way. Stop denying that West is a Racist prick.

kristina | 9/14/2009, 3:05 am EST

YOU MUST NEED JAYZEE FOR SOMETHING.

Lucas | 9/14/2009, 3:07 am EST

Kayne is a joke. His music is pure shit so he will do whatever it takes to gain attention for himself.

Who's Kanye West? | 9/14/2009, 3:07 am EST

Who is Kanye West? Seriously? The hip hop P.O.S. who writes unlistenable songs for kids who have no idea who they are?

This little guy is ugly, untalented and unitelligent. Just like everyone who listens to him.

KanyeISAGAYFISH | 9/14/2009, 3:09 am EST

Kanye has no class.

disgusted | 9/14/2009, 3:10 am EST

Once it’s out there..it’s out there. NO APOLOGIES ACCEPTED. Kanye should be banned from all award shows..this was not the first time he pulled a stunt like this. His mother is turning over in her grave right now..ashamed of him. BOYCOTT HIM NOW. BURN HIS CD’s. TAKE HIM OFF THE RADIO. There is a reason why Taylor sold 10 million albums already..she deserved to win that award. Thank you Beyonce for making it right!

Through the wire | 9/14/2009, 3:10 am EST

Kanye west was disrespected as a rapper b4 through the wire, now he’s disrespecting others. He woke up from a near tragedy event but he forgot where he came from, he forgot that his jaw was wired shut, and was given another chance of life. what a waste of space.

KW Hater | 9/14/2009, 3:11 am EST

What an ass he is! Think I’ll take my CD’s of Kanye and toss ‘em in the fireplace!

Beyonce was great to let Taylor come out and give her aceptance speech. SUM GUY said that Taylor didn’t thank Beyonce for doing that. Did he miss Taylor HUGGING Beyonce when Taylor came on the stage?

Unbelievable! | 9/14/2009, 3:12 am EST

First of all, this is not a race issue. Kanye felt Beyonce deserved the award and he has a right to his opinion – but not on National television and not at the expense of someone like Taylor who clearly was the winner tonight in the class department as well as Beyonce. His attitude and rude (and from what I can gather drunken) behavior was unacceptable and he should be banned from the VMA’s next year. Black or white, he was just plain classless and that is all there is to it.

yo momma | 9/14/2009, 3:15 am EST

fuck yeah!!! luv this guy….kanye fuck all the haterz

BS | 9/14/2009, 3:15 am EST

For homeboy who’s blaming Kanye’s outburst on racism. UHH. Shut the fuuckk up.
It’s the fucking VMA’s. Not World History. And he was upset because Beyonce didn’t win and decided to voice his senseless opinion. Which was wrong, and STUPID on his part.
Don’t go blaming 350 years of racism bull shit.
NOTHING to do with it.
His rich ass doesn’t even think of that shit.
Jealous ass coward.

Kanye Blows | 9/14/2009, 3:16 am EST

Kanye West is a giant pile of human excrement.

I wish his mother could come back to life – and then die again so he could feel that pain all over.

Anonymous 2 | 9/14/2009, 3:16 am EST

Kanye once again proved that he is an asshole and his mother would be very ashamed of him and she is probably rolling in her grave. He is the polar opposite of Barack Obama and sets black issues back decades. Whether you like Taylor Swift or not, it was totally disrectful just like the asshole Joe Wilson was to our President.

Jenna | 9/14/2009, 3:17 am EST

Rude is rude, no matter what color skin a person may have. I am not a Taylor Swift AT ALL fan and thought Beyonce should’ve won, but there is absolutely no reason for ANYONE to take away from another person’s shining moment like that. Kanye was completely without any sort of class in that moment and made himself look terrible.

Racist Comments | 9/14/2009, 3:18 am EST

I was horrified by what Kanye did to Taylor but why are there so many racist comments? Did this incident provoke some of you to pull your white hoods out? Come on already. It was rude, not racist. Calm down.

South Park | 9/14/2009, 3:19 am EST

Southparkfan | 9/14/2009, 3:21 am EST

We all know Kanye West is a gay fish!

yeah | 9/14/2009, 3:21 am EST

Kanye is a dick. Taylor Swift is a kid and this was her very first VMA ever. It wouldn’t have been so bad had it been someone who had previously won. Beyonce is great, but that music video was just her dancing with some other girls, hardly “the best”, just the cookie cutter version of all her videos. And Kanye’s apology blog seemed very insincere, even in the midst of an apology he has to bring it back to him. Why does it always have to be about him? He should have let her have her moment and gone home and blogged about his being upset like the pussy he is.

wtf | 9/14/2009, 3:21 am EST

Why exactly is this is a race issue? It’s simply an issue of a no-talent fool thinking he can do and say whatever he wants with no repercussions. And he’s probably getting exactly what he wants because now everybody is talking about it. I hope at some point people will stop buying his ridiculous “music”.

I am disgusted with Kanye. | 9/14/2009, 3:21 am EST

I am ashamed of him. Such a blatant lack of respect, I am so ashamed for his good mother.

I am very, very glad that Beyoncé stepped up for Tay’s sake.

dylan | 9/14/2009, 3:22 am EST

GBJo | 9/14/2009, 3:23 am EST

Kanye is a bigger douche than I thought. I was pretty sure that was impossible until tonight. What is it Kanye? No one nominated you this year? Pitty you had to use a teenagers time in the spot light to steal a little of your own. Get a life!

Tim | 9/14/2009, 3:24 am EST

My white wife and I are not surprised at all to see another stunt like this for MTV. What sticks out in my mind is: Kanye clearly got ahead of himself and ruined a young underaged girl’s time to shine. That definitely warrants all the backlash from the public. But Dash and all you other lowlifes making this a racial overtone by saying “god i hate blacks” shit, Kanye has more money than you and can retire on an island with as many white girls as he wants…and you’ll still be a scared biggot living in fear of a colourful world. Grow up! Let the natural consequences occur..kanye will probably be done for some years…his own doing…what a moron and dare I say it? Duschebag!!!!!!

Valerie | 9/14/2009, 3:26 am EST

I don’t care what race someone is, although people seem to be hung up on it (like Kanye). Fact is, he’s an idiot. He needs to learn from someone like Beyonce, because she certainly knows how to conduct herself like an adult. Wale is in the same boat as Kanye. And Kanye’s “apology”? Pathetic. I don’t like country music at all, but if someone can support Kanye’s actions, due to whatever history they cling to… Then the world will never get better. Learn from the past so you don’t repeat it, but don’t hold grudges for something that never affected you. Grow up.

DJ Flent D | 9/14/2009, 3:27 am EST

Kudos to Kanye
As asshole of a move as it was. It was deserving of MTV to have it done. I’m sure of it that Taylor didn’t deserve the humiliation,but nor did she deserve the award.
“Single Ladies” made an impact on the world. People all over where recreating segments from this video. The song itself was and is a club banger. A song that spawned numerous remixes. “Single Ladies” compared to “You Belong With Me” is no comparison.
Have you Ever wounder how MTV pick the winners for these awards. I do, and I clearly see it’s not on the value of the song or video.

To everyone out there who wants to make this a race Issie. Dont you think its time you let that card go. This is clearly a issue of talent over bullsh**.

ant | 9/14/2009, 3:27 am EST

FUCK Kanye…i aint into country music nor am i a fan of Taylor Swift…as a matter of fact Kanye used to b one of mah fav. rappers out there, up until tonite that is…he a dam disappointment…who does he think he is yo??? He think he god or sumthin??…SERIOUSLY, his mother is fortunate that she aint here to see the dam ignorant asshole her son has turned out to b..theres a difference between speakin ur mind and disrespectin a person…he a pussy for pickin on a fuckin grl….thats all ima say….FUCK KANYE…

how could you be so heartless? | 9/14/2009, 3:27 am EST

this is not a question of racism – it is the fact that Kanye west acted like a PIG, and simply needs to learn some manners!

Charmz TuLucky | 9/14/2009, 3:28 am EST

Kanye apologized && such, but why?? Becuase he told the effn truth?? Taylor swift singz like a crying cat on most of her songz so why she act like she was shocked someone called her out on her shit. Her and Miley Sick-rus suck soooo bad. They just country and got a moeny so of cource their going to get publicity!! They pay off the flippn Papparazzi and Buy their own flippn C.Ds. And if Miley didnt have a flippn show, she sure as hell wouldnt have any damn FANS. So i actually applaud Kanye on his Honesty, however i disagree with his dicision to apologize and his taste in music if he likes Taylor Swift. And Beyonce and her FLippn publicity stunt. Calling swift back on stage. Girl Boo!! u were preganant at 15, so of cource at 17 u were tryna cherish everything that happened…cuz if you had of had that baby…your ass wudda been a lame one legged Mule. So stick to singing becuase FAKENESS isnt your talent… So kill it. If you wanted to make a diffrnece , maybe you should have Joined Politics

lch | 9/14/2009, 3:29 am EST

First off, the song is called “You Belong with Me”, not “You belong to me”. Second, this is absolutely disgusting. I hope Kanye is humiliated with his actions. I am a HUGE Taylor fan, and have been for 3 years. She has worked so hard for everything she has. She has been writing songs since she was 10 and taught herself how to play instruments. She was the biggest selling artist of 2008. She exposed a younger crowd to country music. She is the single best artist right now and it will surely continue to be that way. It’s absolutely amazing to me that this asshole can take her moment from her. She must have been so humiliated. The thought of her hysterically crying makes me sick to my stomach. I hope he knows he did that to her. Way to embarrass a 19 year old girl. I’m sure Beyonce didn’t appreciate that either. She’s probably humiliated as well. Taylor will be around for many more years. She has it all. She deserves everything she has and does not need to be upstaged by Kanye West. What a loser. Grow up buddy.

I love Kanye West’s music…but his behaviour is completely unaccepatable…he would of cried or even hit someone if they did that to him…so why is it okay for him to do that to Taylor Swift.

I hope he truly means his apology because I hear there are a few country artists like Tim McGraw, Miranda Lambert and Kellie Pickler who have a bone to pick with Weezy….remember Kanye these country people don’t mess around….

Simone | 9/14/2009, 3:35 am EST

I expect that it doesn’t finish his career. But, for Taylor, it will be the best thing that could happen. Because, with his infamous atitude, he just put Taylor on the map. The major part of the world had never listened to her music or even had never heard nothing about her. Now, she is being commented for people all over the world.
So, in an unexpected way, he helped her career. Hehehe.

Blacksteel | 9/14/2009, 3:35 am EST

Damn kanye, i like ya music, but that was just messed up, that girl didnt do nothin to deserve that at all, she just makin music just like u, she won that award and u gotta downplay taylor like that, my heart goes out to her, even if i dont listen to country her fanbase says that shes a great artist, but nothin he says is gonna make this right

Sherry | 9/14/2009, 3:38 am EST

Who died and declared a fool like Kanye West a person who we all have to listen to anyway? He needs to be banned from public events. After all this was an award show highlighting video’s the PEOPLE voted on – not Kanye West’s private thug acting out show – or whatever.

I am sick and tired of his arrogant take on everything. And he disrespected Beyonce too – just in case he never thought about any of that.

Go away Kanye – who gives a cra* what you think…. Really.

KAYNE DISRESPECTFUL SH!T | 9/14/2009, 3:39 am EST

Kayne you are a disgrace. How would you feel if someone did that to you? you would cry like a little girl. I would tell you to go eat a D!(k, but you probably already ate one this morning. Kayne you just set race relations back another 20 years. How does it feel? Call the kenyan maybe there could be a beer summit!

Greg | 9/14/2009, 3:40 am EST

Kanye West is a completely unprofessional jerk and I suspect a serious alcoholic. Jay Leno should boot him off the show tonight. He won’t, but he should at least make him explain. There is really no excuse and Mr. West needs to be banned from any future awards ceremonies as a serial offender.

Real Talk | 9/14/2009, 3:41 am EST

Stop Dramatizing!What Kanye did was wrong and rude ok we all get that. However it doesn”t make him a racist! It won’t stop me from buying his music nor should it stop anyone else. He’s extremely talented and a rising ICON. Tyler is a talented younglady and I suspect that he will apologize for his insensitive behavior.However, what’s odd is this past week OUR President of the USA was treated rudely by Joe the Butthole Senator and his behavior was referred to as “Freedom of Speech” but we call Kanye’s behavior racist and people seem outraged. Stop with the racist crap…would there be all of this talk outrage if Tyler was Black? Emotional issues, big egos, and liquor often result in poor judgment across all color lines. Congrats Tyler…..Kanye work on some self control and address the underlining issues (God Bless)

IRISH CHICK | 9/14/2009, 3:48 am EST

I think the only reason he appologized was because Beyonce won video of the year. He is a disgrace to human beings. I am very disgusted with the way all people treat other people. I don’t think that he’s a very good judge of what deserves awards anyways.. didn’t he interupt another awards show saying he should have won because he spent soooo much money? He just committed career suicide, I hope he knows that.

RazzTheKid | 9/14/2009, 3:52 am EST

I don’t respect either Taylor Swift or Kanye West. All I know is that Kanye LOVES “fishsticks”! I’m all for people speaking their mind, but that was stupid. Especially when it’s something as lame as an award for the VMAs..

What Kanye did was just downright disrespectful. Yeah, he can have his opinions. But he could have kept that to himself. Beyonce is a grown ass woman, and doesn’t need him to stick up for her. Taylor won that award, because that’s what most of the people on this planet voted for. She won the Best Female Video, not the Video of the Year. Beyonce won that. And kudos to her for having Taylor get back on the stage to have her moment. She understood how it upset Taylor. She remembered when she got her first VMA being with Destiny’s Child, and it’s a great moment that shouldn’t be taken away. No matter what. On another note, Lady Gaga is just too freaking weird for me. So, she’s not one of the best in my opinion.

APO6 | 9/14/2009, 4:08 am EST

Everyone has different opinions on music. It’s okay to voice your opinion. But storming a stage right after the award was given and interrupting in the middle of an acceptance speech is just damn insulting, immature, and rude. 10 year olds can be more considerate.

Why do people act like Beyonce is underrated Kanye made that speech as if Beyonce never gets any recognition the girl has one plenty awards and there will be other awards she can win this was Taylor’s first vma award and the moron just had to ruin it GOD will definately get him for this!!!! Kanye and the people who support what he said need to build a bridge and get over it because there are worst things that can happen then Beyonce not getting that award!!! And kudos to Beyonce for letting Taylor finish her speech!!!

Linda | 9/14/2009, 4:14 am EST

A few weeks ago, Amy Winehouse pronounced Mr. West a “c*&$” and Jay-Z was distressed that his “brother” was dissed. It’s my guess that Jay-Z is now upset with Kanye because, now, Kayne has distressed (and embarrassed) Mrs. Jay-Z. That being said, Jay-Z has the power in the music industry to create difficulties for Kanye and I, for one, certainly hope he uses his power for this person.

And, as someone said earlier, it’s not about race, it’s about class. And Kayne is most certainly lacking in that quality.

Gorton Van de Kamp | 9/14/2009, 4:22 am EST

Does Kanye really think that a half-hearted incoherent apology posted to a blog makes this all better? Why didn’t he just tweet his apology? sosry utlentd byncsbttr kthxbye!

the stunt that kanye pulled was wrong and heartless, and i do feel sorry for taylor, however when its all said and done she will have the last laugh. however for all the stupid people using the race cards u need to grow the fu** up, because now u r no better than mr. west. and the dumb a** that spoke of his deceased mother. what goes around comes around. lead by example not by ignorance.

I think pink should have won so maybe i should have ran on stage and stole the mic from a girl half my age and made her cry on her day yea or wait thats something a dipshit like kanye would do oh and he had crop circles on his head.

KeepItReal | 9/14/2009, 4:32 am EST

Please dont play the race card, it wasnt about race its about Kanye being a douche. Playing the race card brings out the low life hillbillies of the right wing extremist religious fanatics of the republican party to this site and their filthy comments.

Pissed | 9/14/2009, 4:33 am EST

Kanye you are weak pathetic and genetically inferior making comments like that when taking away a special moment for another artist. Correct me if I am wrong but if the roles were switched you would be screaming racism. What gives you the right to interupt anybody. Kanye there will be a time in your life where we realize you are not the shit, just a rude pathetic individual needing attention. Your a shit bag.

Ethnology major | 9/14/2009, 4:37 am EST

As an Ethnology major I would just like to bring to attention that you cannot justify Kanye’s actions as racist. To think this was racist is simply ignorant. It was rude, but not racist.
I would presume that Kanye would have done the same thing if Ms Swift was black.
In addition, music videos has nothing to do with the singers, it is the visionary art direction of the directors. However, in the case for Beyonce’s video, not only was the director’s role remarkable but Beyonce’s performance played an extraordinary role in the video.
Furthermore, this is entertainment and we were all entertained, whether we cheered or booed, we were all amused by Kayne’s actions.

Dont tell Kanye to grow up, look at yourselves

Disgusted | 9/14/2009, 4:52 am EST

Once again an angry black man acting out of control with no regard for others! Black Americans just can’t seem to get over something that happened hundreds of years ago! If you want to be mad at someone be mad at the Europeans because that’s how you got to America in the first place! Angry black Americans will eventually be the down fall of The American nation and the coming of the New World Order!

Just Dropping By | 9/14/2009, 4:57 am EST

I don’t get why people are labeling Kanye West’s actions as “racist”. Just because he acted out of turn doesn’t necessarily mean it’s because he’s African American and giving a “white girl” a hard time. I’m pretty sure it’s not that at all.

What I am sure of is this: what he did was not classy at all. He had no right to rob Taylor Swift of her moment in the limelight. People may not necessarily agree with her win or may not be followers of her music but she was the one who won that award. Fair is fair. She deserved those few minutes of recognition and he ruined the moment for her.

Beyonce, on the other hand, was the very definition of class. I salute her for being magnanimous and giving Taylor the moment she didn’t get to enjoy earlier. Bravo to her!

Megan | 9/14/2009, 4:57 am EST

He reminded me why I hate him, he has no respect for people. He wanted to put the spotlight on Beyonce but yet took hers away in the long run because she gave up her time she was supposed to be recognized and gave it to Taylor. What an idiot. Why would anyone want to be a fan of his? He better never hear the end of this.

rebecca | 9/14/2009, 5:02 am EST

I’m sorry but I severely dislike Taylor Swift. She didn’t deserve that award and someone needed to slap her ass with the truth “stop acting like big shit because you aren’t” Whenever I see her perform she’s acting like she’s better than everyone else and that she is ssssooooo amazing. I’m sorry, she’s not. She has a mediocre voice with a cocky attitude. Plus, Why listen to a girl who sings a happy go lucky song about romeo and juliet? Hello, it was a tragedy not a rom-com. I don’t care if she wrote it or not, have some common sense. As for Kanye, he always has been and always will be a douche, you’re expecting better from him? She needed a slap into reality and he was just the ass to do it.

Unsure | 9/14/2009, 5:06 am EST

Past things aside, I didn’t see Kanye’s actions here as being racist as much as they were being selfish. Really though, all this drama just made me actually watch Taylor Swift’s music video and it was adorable. In the end, this just makes me sort of love her and Beyonce both.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 5:12 am EST

I’m not a fan of her music but she’s seems like a nice kid. At 19, she is still a kid and he is a grown man who should know better by now to do this. He has shown narcissistic, self-centered, egotistical behavior before but his actions shouldn’t be directed towards a kid which they clearly were. He will now do one or all of the following predictable things:
1) produce a song for her
2) ask her to be on one of his songs
3) perform on stage with her
4) write a song and appear on a tv show talking about a) how wrong he was; b) how he has apologized enough; c) how people need to get off his back; d) how he’s still the greatest singer/songwriter/rapper/produ cer/artist alive

Whatever it is, it is predictable. It isnt the first time we’ve seen him do this and it won’t be the last time we see him do this. Finally, I have just wasted 1 minute of my life on this guy and I’m sure people have wasted more. I think we would all be better served by simply IGNORING HIM. A guy like him will always get THAT MESSAGE.

Billy-Kanye's secret boyfriend | 9/14/2009, 5:13 am EST

Yo! I’m not a country fan and REALLY dislike Taylor Swifts Music but i ‘ll have to say that what happened with Kanye was Done in the poorest of tastes. Man seriously shame on you… you can add bullying a teenage girl to your resume. Beyonce is a class act. You Mr West are a hate monger and an ego maniac.
I love your music but will find it hard to give it the time of day after this.

Julie | 9/14/2009, 5:28 am EST

Congratulations to Taylor Swift. You won your award because your deserve it! I’m sure you have had to side step alot of prats to get where you have so far and Kanye is just another one of those. Ignore him, he is rude and disrespecful and doesn’t deserve a second thought from you.

If I was Taylor, I’d throw the microphone at him hard. On a lighter side, I’m sure Taylor will make more good songs and better videos in the future as a response to the occasion. She’s young, talented, has achieved a lot and she stands out in her own way. She’ll go further.

WOW | 9/14/2009, 5:41 am EST

To John MAYER…Regardless of whether he was drunk or not, he still had no right to do what he did. Even when you’re drunk, you still know right from wrong. (and he didn’t seem that drunk, if at all.) He thinks he has the right to do what ever he wants. Some one should knock some sense into him . How would you like that to happen to you? So disrespectful, and rude. It’s just common sense. If that guy’s your friend, then …dude? really? What a douche.

SATAN | 9/14/2009, 5:56 am EST

Tim | 9/14/2009, 5:59 am EST

There is no excuse for what Kanye West’s behavior. It was boorish, self-serving, and uncivil. He has a grandiose sense of self and no sense of personal boundaries. There is no sincerity in his apology and he lacks the capacity feel remorse, shame or guilt.

Had a regular citizen done this act, they would have been hauled off the stage in handcuffs and thrown in jail pending a psychiatric evaluation. I believe that Kanye is a mentally ill and fits the profile of a sociopath.

To not publicly respond to his behavior in a severe manner enables his illness. MTV needs to act quickly. At a minimum, he needs to be banned from all future awards shows and not have his music or videos aired on MTV or any affiliate companies.

Whittnee | 9/14/2009, 6:00 am EST

sorry kanye but i honestly hope ur fans disown u as a PROFESSIONAL artist…beyonce cant win everything..i will say beyonce gained my respect tonight for being a TRUE professional and having some heart..seriously kanye drunk or not that was Taylors first VMA you honestly have no heart what so ever..and ur apology is useless in my eyes..you really should grow up and show some kinda respect..just because your “famous”doesnt make u head man of the world…votes were made taylor came out on top you shoulda left her alone and let her have her moment..your trash kanye..your mother is soooo not proud……..GO TAYLOR!!!!!!!

andrew t | 9/14/2009, 6:03 am EST

like kanye can talk the loser.. taylor swift is so much more talented than him anyway.. she can ACTUALLY sing.. she can write songs and ACTUALLY play an instrument. shes still young but has a bright future ahead of her.. not dissing beyonce but shes just a puppet anyway who just dances to random pointless songs.. and dont get my started on kanye.. he is so boring and untalented its unbelievable. when he came to australia for good vibrations festival i LITERALLY fell asleep during his set! how dare he do that to someone. i hope u read this kanye coz ur a just a fuckin loser and should get over yourself coz nobody likes u or ur music

Herman | 9/14/2009, 6:03 am EST

As a black man I am deeply saddened that my race seems to maintain a larger percentage of people in show business who are disrespectful, agressive, angry, and hypocritical.

There is no excuse for this. We own our responsibility (response – ability). There is no stress in the world, only how we deal with it. It’s a weakness and our future depends on us becoming more civilized. Kanye, as a black man – You have worn out your welcome.

Shocked | 9/14/2009, 6:05 am EST

I am still so shocked and upset. He posts that he apologizes to his “fans”…sorry Kanye after that disrespectful stunt of yours…you are rapidly losing your fans and your career. You thought you were doing the right thing where in fact you destroyed yourself in front of millions. Good for Taylor for keeping her composure and that was so awesome what Beyonce did for her at the end of the show.

smart businessman! | 9/14/2009, 6:05 am EST

That was a classic move by a savvy businessman such as Mr. West. There’s nothing that moves your career like kissing up to your boss’s wife. Also, if you’re going to upstage someone why pick someone who might fight back. Pick on helpless teenage girl who is already frientened. Smart move…you might go to HELL but smart move.

But I like Ms.Swift too, and although frankly I would tend to concur that from an artistic viewpoint Ms. Knowles’ video was better (it did end up with the best video award, but frankly I don’t like the song much) Kanye still acted like a fool and he’ll regret it in the morning.

his music is a reflection of who he is,
an untalented boring vein little pig,
everyone knows mr kayne has has no class,
i really hope someone kicks his ass !

There wasn’t anything racist about what Kanye did, it was just him showing the world just how ignorant and insensitive he really is. He took away a very important moment for Taylor Swift. Beyonce showed what a true star is by inviting Taylor back up to let her shine. Beyonce is not only a star but she is a very wise and sensible woman. Kanye, you need to grow up.

i cant beleived this happened, he was wants more fame. he probably thought this would boost his record sales, well its only gonna make Taylor’s soar! Taylor deserved better. The ‘You Belong With Me’ video was unbelievably better than Beyonce’s ‘Single Ladies’, sure her dancing was great, but the video lacked creativity.

He says he is only being “real”, yea real pathetic. How many musicians and celebs since the VMAs (or any award show for that matter) started have sat and bit their tounges because they thought the awards should have gone to someone other than who won? I am sure a whole lot.

What gives Kanye the right to rush the stage, grab a mic out of someone else’s hands and give us *his* version of real? Does he really think we all give a rat’s ass about his version of real? Or that his version of real is what the rest of us should think? Honestly, I hated the ‘Single Girls’ video and song. If Kanye had a problem with Beyonce’s song not winning he should have used the media to voice his opinion, god knows they would have printed it everywhere.

Kanye, go away, we really don’t care what your opinions, thoughts (if you have any coherent ones), or your (lack of) musical abilities have in store for us. Just simply go away.

Lance Hardwood | 9/14/2009, 7:52 am EST

Kanye never got my respect and never will.. Talyor Swift you are amazing! Kanye, go to hell -.- your apology wasn’t even the least bit sincere.

His Career | 9/14/2009, 7:52 am EST

Kanye,
S’goin on broseph, I know it’s been a pathetic one and you’ve had what…handful of hits…some cd’s with the same message, you failed outta school, you smoke, you drink, dress like you run shiesse, etc. but I’m done
- Your Career

algomajoker | 9/14/2009, 7:52 am EST

Douche bag. That’s the first thing to come to mind. Only a douche would pick on a tiny litle 19 year old girl. And then I noticed that Taylor looked down at him. So he’s not only a douche bag, but a shrimp.
Where’s Kid Rock when you need him?

doot | 9/14/2009, 7:56 am EST

Kanye, beating down the 17-year-old girls… watch out Miley!

Cheesecrop | 9/14/2009, 7:58 am EST

I did not see these awards, as I have made it a point to stop watching this junk years ago. I have nothing to say nasty or racist about anyone.

What I will mention is something interesting about the stunt itself. It isn’t even original. Years ago, when I did try to watch these awards shows, the same thing happened. I had never seen it before, and it honestly caught me off-guard. Back in 1998 (if I remember correctly), a singer named Shawn Colvin won an award for something (I cannot recall). While she was giving her speech, a rapper leaper up on stage and proceeded to call out the voters, on what I believe was the American Music Awards, for choosing another rapper over him.

I cannot be sure of all the events, but the order in which they occured was remarkably similar to what I hear being described about this show.

I find it interesting that even this desperate attempt for attention was unoriginal.

blah! | 9/14/2009, 8:04 am EST

Why do I feel that this whole thing was staged? At the expense of Taylor and Beyonce. Or even Kanye himself. Why would he be drinking that cognac at the red carpet if he’s not preparing for some stunt? Kanye, being a known attention whore, was tasked to pull it off. I don’t believe in conspiracies but knowing the history of VMAs, it’s not farfetched.
I remember there was a similar incident between Jarvis Cocker and Michael Jackson at the Brits, with Cocker admitting that the incident hurt his career and doomed him for life. I doubt if this whole Kanye VMA bumrushing will further tarnish his image like what happened to Jarvis. A little apology here and voila, everything is forgotten. Besides Kanye is very much aware that he’s an egotistical douchebag.

reezie | 9/14/2009, 8:04 am EST

Kudos to Beyonce for being a beautiful and compassionate human being.I choose to focus on her!!!
If Kayne isn’t on drugs maybe he should be. A little impulse control problem?? His behavior was rude and unacceptable.I hope he feels it in his pocketbook.

LouieLouie | 9/14/2009, 8:05 am EST

Kanye West = all about being black
Taylor Switt = as white as can be
Beyonce = beautiful black woman

Therefore, it is obvious that:

Kanye West = racist

the_moll | 9/14/2009, 8:05 am EST

Oh, but he was so cool when he was criticizing Bush. He’s a loser now and he was a loser then.

KANYE CAN DIE! | 9/14/2009, 8:06 am EST

FUCK YOU MAN YOU THINK YOUR COOL WITH YOU SHUTTERS AND YEEZY, THINKING IT GIVES YOU AN EDGE OVER OTHER BUT GUESS WHAT DOUCHE YOUR NOTHING? FUCK YOU SPEAK UP FOR BEYONCE BUT YOU YOURSELF HAVE NO TALENT AT ALL FUCK FUCK FUCK YOU! TAYLOR MUCH LOVE YOU DESERVE IT KANYE IS A DOUCHE PEDOPHILE!

ZDM | 9/14/2009, 8:09 am EST

KANYE…….It was sensible of him to apologize but…… I still love him to bits:O)

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 8:12 am EST

Kanye is such an ass hat. He doesn’t deserve any of the fans he has. Just a petulant whiny little bitch who can’t even let a little girl have a moment in the spotlight.

What a jack ass.

John | 9/14/2009, 8:12 am EST

Who is Taylor Swift….?

Never heard of her….now I know her due to Kanye’s act!

Jungleland2 | 9/14/2009, 8:12 am EST

Proof of who is on the way to becoming a superstar in music(Swift) and who is an absolute joke and megalomaniac (West)

I think it’s time for MTV / Grammys etc to get out the taser and show this punk a thing or two

-syd monroe | 9/14/2009, 8:15 am EST

What Kanye West did to Tatlor Swift was beyond disappointing. I am only 14 and most teens my age wouldnt find a problem with it but to me what he did was stupid and hurt Taylor knowing that was her first VMA!

Natalie | 9/14/2009, 8:16 am EST

This reminds of when Ol Dirty Bastard interrupted Shawn Colvin’s speech at the grammy awards.

BOOHOO kidanye | 9/14/2009, 8:17 am EST

leave it to an idiot to ruin someones moment..i bet if he was the one receiveing award and someone did this to him he would be fighting…KIDANYE needs to be a real man and Apologize in person and not on a blog…NEEDS KANYE NEEDS TO BE BOYCOTED FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE….(KIDANYE NOT KANYE)

dj blurry | 9/14/2009, 8:23 am EST

even though he acts like a asssshollle . in the grand scheme no one will ever remember taylor swifts video, unless they belong in her fan club. But single ladies will live forever, so you decide. Maybe he was making a statment about quality .

Gee, at least he apologized | 9/14/2009, 8:25 am EST

“everybody wanna booooo me but i’m a fan of real pop culture!”
as opposed to that” very very talented” Swift, a purveyor of unreal pop culture.
In zealous obedience to The True Pop, no action requires forgiveness.

bcff | 9/14/2009, 8:26 am EST

You wanna see the “real” KW, watch the episode of him on “Punk’d”, he acts like an 8 year old kid. KW is an insult to his music genre, pure and simple.

Caitlin | 9/14/2009, 8:27 am EST

I’m completely and utterly fed up with celebrities in general feeling the need to voice their opinions to the nation publicly. I understand that not every person can be a fan to every music artist, entertainer, sports star, or even the President for that matter. However, this still doesn’t mean that because you have the resources to make your opinion heard that you should be allowed to use them to your advantage, especially when that person presents their opinion in such an untactful manner. Kanye had every right to believe that Beyonce’s video was better than Taylor’s; however, its not what he said that struck a nerve with me, but the manner and time in which he said it. What person would ever think that it is ever right to steal a microphone from anyone during an acceptance speech? After watching this video, I learned three things. First, that Taylor is a very classy individual and responded in the best way possible. I believe that she understands that sometimes its better to just let ignorant people burn their own bridges. Next, I learned that Beyonce is also one of the most respectable women in the music industry, and I applaud her for rising above this childish performance of Kanye. You handled it amazingly. Lastly, I learned that yes, Kanye will be remembered as one of the greatest hip hop artist of all time, but until he can genuinely apologize for his conduct, he will never be remembered as an icon or role model to the fans who so strongly believed in his cause.

S | 9/14/2009, 8:29 am EST

kanye’s apology was worthless. he shouldnt have got in the way of taylor swift’s speech in the first place. so rude. and to think he was one of my favorite artists.

what the heck kanye | 9/14/2009, 8:30 am EST

this has nothing to do with race people kanye was being well kanye all those ignorant people are just trying to make it a race issue but kanye once again you screwed up

Kanye West Sucks | 9/14/2009, 8:31 am EST

he sucks

Khaos | 9/14/2009, 8:32 am EST

Kanye is your typical piece of crap.

CBH | 9/14/2009, 8:33 am EST

I hope his sponsors drop him immediately and he is never able to be successful in this business.

reezie | 9/14/2009, 8:34 am EST

DJ Blurry, no shit he was making a statement about quality and I agree with him 100% from an artistic viewpoint, Beyonce rules. BUT THE MESSAGE DOESN’T VALIDATE BEING A RUDE ASSHOLE! There is this thing called civility, look it up.

Cave man | 9/14/2009, 8:35 am EST

I always thought Kanye was an asshole. For him to prove it is priceless. Enjoy your fall to the bottom you low life.

Jump into Traffic Kanye! | 9/14/2009, 8:37 am EST

Taylor is sweetest girl ever!! It doesn’t matter if you think you are ‘real’ or not, WHICH you are not. You are just ignorant and way too into yourself. Show some damn class you fool. You think you know what real music is? What real is period? Have you ever heard of class? Not besides the fact you probably failed all of your’s in high school, but class as in holding yourself in a respectful manners? Obviously not. Taylor deserved her award. And if Taylor is who she is, she’ll forgive you, but homes, you’re going to end up in one of her songs.

Khaos | 9/14/2009, 8:37 am EST

His apology is like a fart in a wind storm. Totally useless…anyone that defends a piece of garbage like him, is also useless.

Disappointed | 9/14/2009, 8:38 am EST

What Kayne did last night to Taylor was more than rude. He showed again what an ass he truly is.

Here is one thing to think about: Taylor Swift has been writing songs, that were recorded since she was 14. She truly has more talent in her little finger than Kayne does in his entire body. I have never liked him & he doesn’t have to worry because I never will.

Beyonce however has gained another true fan. She showed the class of true lady last night.

Here’s to Taylor & Beyonce!!!!

Sandy | 9/14/2009, 8:39 am EST

I don’t think we should make this about race. West hurt two people Beyonce and Swift-that makes him wrong. Beyonce is a real classy Lady. Soneone once wrote equality should be about if you are right or wrong.

nunofurbiznez | 9/14/2009, 8:39 am EST

In reply to DJ Blurry… it’s so not about that! It’s about respect!! No matter who won no one has the right to take away their moment. And, quite frankly, I am a fan of Beyonce’s but do NOT think her video is so great… she’s done better. This was Taylor’s, moment plain and simple and instead of basking in it she probably wants to forget it! How unfair!! And to John who said he didn’t even know who Taylor was before Kanye did this (as if that’s a blessing on Taylor)… I think that now everyone knows who Kanye is!! Dirt!!

Double Standard | 9/14/2009, 8:40 am EST

Would Kanye have done this to 50 cent or Mary J? Of course not.

bloo | 9/14/2009, 8:41 am EST

What kind of man rips a mike out of the hands of a teenage girl and insults her on national TV? BTW, not only did West insult Taylor Swift, but all the MTV fans that voted for her. Kanye West isn’t a man, he’s nothing but an immature, egotistical, alcoholic punk who needs to spend some quality time with a mental health professional.

Greg | 9/14/2009, 8:42 am EST

His mother must be rolling in her grave. She was portrayed as such a decent woman and perhaps she was, but she did a lousy job teaching the basics of life to this little piece of trash.

me | 9/14/2009, 8:45 am EST

Kanye West is a twat.He is not nearly as good as he thinks he is, & has an overinflated opinion of himself. There are awards,top ten lists, & there is the actual quality of the music. Once the hype dies down & a few years pass I don’t think
his music will have a long shelf life.

dalgoda | 9/14/2009, 8:45 am EST

Hey White guy here….this had nothing to do with racism. It has everything to do with stupidity and the idiot that Kanye has become. There is nothing anyone can do to bring back that moment for Taylor and make it right now. Kanye is one reason the music industry is failing and Taylor is one reason why it is striving to survive.

Kanye=Douchebag | 9/14/2009, 8:46 am EST

I have never purchased a full album by Kanye just a few songs from Itunes, but after seeing what he did to Taylor (and I’m not even a fan of New Country music) I will NEVER buy any of his music ever again and I hope there are millions of others that feel the same way!

Cynthia | 9/14/2009, 8:47 am EST

BOYCOTT kanye west! He is a racist plain and simple… he did the same thing to Gretchen Wilson a few yrs back at the Grammy’s!!!

J_Rock | 9/14/2009, 8:48 am EST

What a punk. I don’t think he would have done that if Toby Keith was accepting an award, or Dolly Parton for that matter (She’s a street fighter from way back).

countrygirl | 9/14/2009, 8:49 am EST

There’s no way in hell Kanye would have stormed Toby Keith’s or Trace Adkins’ moment. What a chicken Sh@t pickin on a talented, classy young lady, with emphisis on LADY… my brothers would have kicked some country A#@ if they saw a guy treating a girl like that.

HatesKanye | 9/14/2009, 8:49 am EST

People want to say its not about race. BS. He is racist plain and simple. If it was the other way around and Beyonce won and lets say Willie Nelson jumps on stage and takes the mic saying that Taylor should have won, he would have been immediately labled a racist in the news.

Kim | 9/14/2009, 8:50 am EST

I have already contacted my local radio stations and asked them not to air that jerk anymore. My status on facebook encourages all my friends to do the same. This guy is a disrespectful, arrogant jerk and he won’t ever learn anything until he’s hit in the wallet. Ban him from the radio and itunes!

nunofurbiznez | 9/14/2009, 8:51 am EST

Amen to everything you said Caitlin!! That’s goes along the same line as the artists that spout their political views on stage during their concerts. If I pay good money to see someone perform then just do that! Perform! I may be a fan but that doesn’t mean I share your opinions and don’t need to pay money to have thiers jammed down my throat. It’s almost like entrapment… you get me in there to, as I believe, be entertained and then I get their diatribe? Remember Dixie Chicks? Ug. I even take offense to Green Day going over to France and performing American Idiot. O.k… you’re famous! Everyone is watching you and admiring you?!! USE BETTER JUDGEMENT! Kanye will never be more than a childish brat to me!
I’ve always liked Beyonce but have a deep and newfound respect for this A1 classy lady! Go celebrate Taylor! You deserved your award!!! Even Beyonce thinks so!

wow | 9/14/2009, 8:53 am EST

I have never really liked Kanye West myself, but here in the past few months his music had been growing on me..in fact I was actually bought his CD last week. But, after seeing how rude and disrespectful he was to Taylor Swift, I threw it away today. It must be hard to go to the awards all the time and never win anything,but don’t take it out on all the other artist who deserve to win. Kayne..just give up.

Annoyed | 9/14/2009, 8:54 am EST

First of all, Taylor is 19, not 17. The bottom line here is that MTV has turned into a huge joke. It’s nothing about music anymore, and all about the shock value. What has this world come to? Bringing Russell Brand back after last year’s debacle? Seriously?? He continuously disrespected and humiliated the Jonas Brothers non-stop about their personal choices and railed on our political system, which wouldn’t be that big of a deal if he weren’t BRITISH! I think there should have been more outrage about that than this Taylor Swift situation. Obviously MTV is only in it for the ratings, the $$, the shock value, and it disgusts me. I am “old” and remember how awesome MTV used to be. Now it is a joke. I refused to let my girls watch it this year after last year’s disgusting tirade from Russell Brand. I cannot stand Taylor Swift but for Kanye to do what he did was repulsive, and it wouldn’t surprise me if he were egged on by the MTV execs themselves.

Kevin | 9/14/2009, 8:55 am EST

proves once again: celebrity douchebaggery is more entertaining than whatever it was that made them celebrities.

Absolutely Appalled | 9/14/2009, 8:57 am EST

Kanye should be boycotted to say the least…he should actually never be able to attend an awards show of any kind again. Because you are “drunk and stupid” is no excuse….Kanye should have the BALLS to PUBLICLY apologize (if he knows what that is) as he PUBLICLY humiliated Taylor. They should also fine him and black list his ass. I hope people learn from this…do not support the idiots who are not talented. Maybe Taylor can HELP Kanye…teach him about music…how to play and write music, speak English, how to have class.

As far as words directly for Kanye:

“Your mother would be SOOOOO PROUD of you right now”

jaxup | 9/14/2009, 8:57 am EST

Mike | 9/14/2009, 8:58 am EST

dj blurry | 9/14/2009, 9:03 am EST

a few points, 1 mtv is giddy , without this would anyone still talk about the awards. Mtv sold its soul years ago, Fucking teila tequila and the hills ?

2 taylor swift will sell more records then ever. And well her music is awful and boring. All the geniuses protesting the president this oast week so they can make sure the insurance companys make a profit this year ( shakes head) fucking retards . They will all go out and buy her records . Because that uppity NeeeeGrow stole her award

3 i agree with kanye all the way . but would i bum rush the stage No, find a more creative way to do it. Like make a video , showing a montage of great things like pulp fiction and goodfellas not winning awards .

but its a shame however that kanye is more well known for being a dick then for his lesser known songs that go under the radar, Just for making the beat for ” you dont know my name” alone would of made him a legend. Add to it ” never let me down ” through the wire” ” or “Lucifer” i can go on and on

Chuck Taylor | 9/14/2009, 9:03 am EST

Y is everyone so mad. The only person that really has a right to be is Taylor Swift. And this wasnt about race. I hate when everyone turns it into that. Kanye did what he wanted to do. Right or Wrong. He’s actually probably “Righter” than most of you because he acts on what he believes in instead of hiding in a little shell. Do you Kanye!

race... | 9/14/2009, 9:03 am EST

how come any incident involving a white person against a black person is racist?
ex. obamas speech being inturrupted by some idiot rep. heckler. that was deemed racist when it was obviously politics.
but when kayne does this race has nothing 2 do with it.

Wake up america reverse racism is alive and kickn!

Go West? West needs to GO!! | 9/14/2009, 9:07 am EST

What a jerk. I don’t even like Taylor all that much but West’s behavior is not deserving of ANYONE. I’m actually glad he showed his true “colors” on national TV. This may be the nail in the coffin for his career. Since he doesn’t like himself (proven by his behavior) he may self destruct in depression and addiction or any number of selfish and self-serving options. Rest in peace Mr. West – NOT.

i am a huge kanye west and taylor swift fan.. but after tonights “rant” by kanye.. he no longer has my support.. i will never buy, play, purchase, or endorse anything involving kanye west from this point on. to embarrass another professional on national t.v. is completely uncalled for. “HELL NO” on kanye west.

TaylorSwift | 9/14/2009, 9:15 am EST

Hi, i did not deserve that award. Kanye was absolutley right to do what he did. The award belongs to Beyonce

sadchica | 9/14/2009, 9:15 am EST

Kanye was wrong, this is very true. Taylor is completely talented and can hold her own.

Although kanye was wrong, I think its idiotic to say he is racist. REALLY!!!!!! ?? It is funny, you white folk can dish it but cant take it, welcome to our world !

AH boogalooo | 9/14/2009, 9:16 am EST

Yall dnt realize hip hop and country are too diff genres kanye is not going anywhere he was rude but thts how he is…an we all no it so all those who say theyll never buy another cd it doesnt matter cause youll be replaced by another fan

IM BLACK… and i think its people like kanye… that keep the racism going for ourselves…. we live in a day and age where racism isnt actually racism… racism was lynchings…. and murder and shame… our ancestors would roll over in thier graves watching people like him… given wat they are given and doing wat he does… he keeps the racism going! cos he proclaims that we still are treated that way! untill we stop thinking that white people hate us! we will always think that its racism when it just people sick of black people in their faces telling them white people hate us!…. its pretty much even steven these days whites hate blacks the smae as blacks hate whites! kanye is no better that a white supremist!

lagirl | 9/14/2009, 9:18 am EST

I will go on record as saying I have never liked Taylor Swift… but that being said… NO ONE deserves what happened to her last night. It would have been better had he just taken her award from her backstage and given it to Beyonce. The moment he stole can never be replaced. And there’s no apology big enough to make it better. So few people get that moment on stage where there heart just pours out. So few people get recognized like that. And no one has the right to take that away from a person when that moment comes. Kudos to Beyonce for trying to make it better. She made the best out of a terrible moment. She showed a tremendous amount of class.

civil | 9/14/2009, 9:22 am EST

Kanye, you can call yourself “real” until your blue in the face, but all I see is a “real close minded arrogant jerk, who likes to ruin the best day of nice girls life”. Hope you learn someday…

Angry Elvis | 9/14/2009, 9:23 am EST

Kayne is a poor sport.If he was going to praise someone for a stronger talent, believe me their were many many more amazing talented people in that audience.

However, their time has past they had their deserves when it was their turn/time and music has to move forward with new talent….that’s the way the business is so our ears grow.Taylor is hot she is young she is fresh…it’s what sells. And she truly is a talent…I dig her.

Kayne did this because he is not selling records, he really is not all that great in his genre of music…think of it like this…back in the day when you were a little kid and you got the big award for your Elmers glue project and then their was the whiny kid in the background crying and telling mommy I should have won that award and stamping the feet and all that jazz…..their you have it ” Kayne”.

Their is a wave of racism going on after President Obama was elected…this is so sad. I am a person of color/culture and I’m sure President Obama would say this ( You embarrass me you embarrass yourself )to any person who pulls a race card.

The industry gets a big jolt and a buzz when people like Kayne do ” shock value ” comments…..actually it boosts both their careers…sadly he is riding coat tails to fame he never really reached or deserved at Taylor Swifts expense.

I’m sure by now she is laughing at the whole ordeal and saying to herself ( Tigger Please ! ).

To bad their is not a drama queen award. I would lobby for Kayne to receive it.

Sure, he has the right to voice his opinion on who should have won the award: AFTER THE AWARDS SHOW ON HIS OWN TIME! He can’t help it though. It’s just that he’s an ego-maniacal, untalented (yea, I said it) Dickhead. He should be banned from all future award shows, but won’t be because MTV love the attention he draws with his crap.

Unbelievable | 9/14/2009, 9:28 am EST

Unbelievable rudeness. Thank God Kanye West is here to be the ass of the world. He’s just another rapper with a mouth bigger than his brain.

R Kolk | 9/14/2009, 9:29 am EST

Kanye bring yourself down to the country where my friends and I live. We will have a reception for you that you won’t soon forget. You might learn something about respect and manners here.

Disgusted in Chicago | 9/14/2009, 9:30 am EST

Kanye is a moron, it is so typical of him to do such a thing. He reminds me of a little kid throwing a fit on the playground. He needs to realize that he is not the center of the universe. His mother must be rolling in her grave with embarrassment at the spoiled little brat she raised. Taylor Swift is an incredible artist no matter if you like that genre or not. You have lost a fan in me Kanye, as I’m sure you’ve lost others. Nice job, moron.

papiculo | 9/14/2009, 9:31 am EST

Kanye West is the Kim Kardashian of the Music world; a giant ass with no talent or class!

I blame MTV for this kind of behavior. For years they kissed the a$$ of one form of music over all others creating the over bloated egomaniacs like West, Piffy, Puffy, Pssy, or whatever the hell his name is this month!

Screw you Kanye and screw you MTV!

Not Surprised | 9/14/2009, 9:31 am EST

I’m not surprised that some people commenting here believe that Kanye’s act last night was appropriate. Or that he should be allowed to have his opinion due to free speech. Or even the complete idots who connected his act with President Obama’s Yes We Can rally cry. It just confirms for me that there are some people in this world who are so stupid, so ignorant, and have their heads shoved so far up their own asses that even though everyone has a right to their opinion, some people are just too freakin stupid to have an opinion.

This is simply one selfish, consumed, asshole for whom this is a pattern of behavior and who cares what his motivations are – IT DOESN’T MATTER. He is clueless just like some of you stupid MTFs on this post who thinks the way you do.

Ilpalazzo | 9/14/2009, 9:31 am EST

Kanye has a history of doing retarded things like this, and yet somehow he still has a career.

Cheryl | 9/14/2009, 9:32 am EST

Sorry dude, but being real doesn’t equate to being an ass. Wrong place, wrong time….AGAIN. Ban him from future shows; truthfully, he deserves worse. He deserves to be hit in the wallet, hard.

Marc | 9/14/2009, 9:32 am EST

This was the complete and utter meltdown and self-destruction of Mr. West. He has obviously lost all perspective on reality and decency, in verbally assaulting – because that was what it was – a young innocent girl.
This however will come back to haunt him and probably will be the beginning of the end of his carreer. He most certainly will have lost the respect of the industry and his fellow artists. No other artist will ever associate him- or herself again with Mr. West.
He certainly looked like a complete fool, and the stupidity of his action is going to cost him his career. Bye bye Mr. West, you’re out.

BooHOO | 9/14/2009, 9:34 am EST

Shame on that young man! I think I will bend him over my knee and slap the Hip Hop right out of his little bootie with my wooden cooking spoon….Sinister eyes and all !

Then knit him a nice little sweater with a capitol ” D ” on it for…..Richard…oops my bad I meant DICK !

What a delicious little dish Taylor Swift is, that little button nose and perky….OOPS OH MY !..

Chad | 9/14/2009, 9:37 am EST

I have always been a fan of Kanye’s music but ignored his awful attitude. After lastnight its pretty hard to ignore how big of an asshole he is and I am done with supporting his music. I don’t care if another fan takes my spot, as long as its not me supporting it. He was completely tactless to interrupt Taylor Swift during her speech. He took what should have been a huge moment for her and shit all over it! Kanye ended up looking like an even bigger ass in the end because Beyonce won for Best Video of the Year. The apology he posted on his blog is pathetic. He may as well have said “Im sorry but I still think Im right so Im not really sorry at all.”

Scott | 9/14/2009, 9:37 am EST

Kanye is a complete RACIST, and it is people like him that perpetuate racism in this country and around the world. I see comments where some claim he is not a racist, but I can only think back to Hurrican Katrina when Kanye also claimed that President Bush hates black people.
The comment from the MC where he said something to the effect of “you can’t blame a man for speaking his mind”, was also out of line. When Obama was interrupted with a shout out from the SC Congressman during his speach, everyone attacked that Congressman and called him racist, and yet he did not actually go to the podium and take over the speach. It was 2 words.
Kanye took the stage, took her time for her acceptance speach, and ultimately took the moment away from her…a moment she will never get back.
This guy deserves no honors…not in the past, not now, and not in the future.
To honor a RACIST is to perpetuate RACISM.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 9:38 am EST

Career suicide.. good move idiot! And by the way, that was NOT an apology. Whether he is a racist or not, I think all races can agree that he is a universal and cross-cultural failure of a human.

Now America… it’s your turn to teach that poor idiot the best lesson. Stop putting money into that no talent losers’ pocket.

eatadick | 9/14/2009, 9:38 am EST

kanye i admit was disrespectful on account that he should have told how he felt after the show..but to say he is racist is total blasphemy…yall think just ckuz he’s black and he verbally attack a white female that he is racist..but really yall noe nothing about racism..white ppl have noe cklue what racism is..i have to deal wit it almost every dam day, with the racist ass ckops to the racist store owners that following me around the store..so to ckomment and say he’s being racist and ur white is kind of funny to me..like that word shouldn’t even ckome out your mouth for real

Jerk!!! | 9/14/2009, 9:39 am EST

After hearing of Kanye past rants and the injustice he continues to make us all aware of…or injustice as HE perceives it…who does he think he is. He is a joke and I hope that this latest stunt will hurt his future record sales. I know I won’t be buying anymore of his music…which is a shame. I’m not even a huge Taylor Swift fan but I could just see how embarrassed he made her on stage. His apology was a joke as well.

SamiJ | 9/14/2009, 9:39 am EST

Kanye was wrong. I was shocked when she won just like a lot of people but no one else decided to run on stage and ruin it for the poor girl. good for her, she is very talented and very popular right now. Not everybody wants to hear Kanye’s opinion ALL the time. That was uncalled for. I am no longer a Kanye supporter.

Cherokee Mama | 9/14/2009, 9:39 am EST

WOW! Look, I dont know if Kanye is racist, infact, I dont think I’ve ever heard anything he has ever sang, but the fact is, There is absolutely NO respect left in this world. People have become rude, pushy, and arrogant, and as long as everyone lets others behave this way, all of the finger pointing and boycotting wont do a thing. I would NEVER allow my child to listen to ANYTHING Kanye sings, not because he’s black, but because he is not the kind of person I want my son being influenced by…

.... | 9/14/2009, 9:40 am EST

yeah it was rude, but so what TAYLOR SWIFT is a shitty country singer.

Greg | 9/14/2009, 9:40 am EST

Who cars if this piece of trash is a racist? I AM BLACK AND THIS ASSHOLE MAKES ME FEEL ASHAMED FOR JUST REMOTELY LOOKING LIKE HIM (without the bling crap). Fortunately, he’s just a rap singer and most people don’t care who he is. Taylor Swift handled it like a pro- she obviously was raised properly. Kayne’s momma must have sucked as a mother.

Taylor and Beyonce fan | 9/14/2009, 9:41 am EST

I would expect nothing more from Kayne. Congratulations Taylor and Beyonce!!!

dkfjksldjf | 9/14/2009, 9:41 am EST

this show was the vma’s hosted by mtv..how many country stars do you see performing on mtv!? country music has their own award shows where only country music performers win..this award show was not for country music stars..and im not a fan of taylor swif anyways..her music is very childish and boring..no one likes to hear about high school drama!!

TB | 9/14/2009, 9:41 am EST

So Kanye publicly embarrasses Ms. Swift in front of millions of people and then apologizes in front of 200 people on his blog; because he doesn’t like the outcome of the award. I think he should produce a 1 minute commercial to show on MTV where he apologizes. It can be shown right after the one that MTV themselves need since they should not have waited for Beyonce to do the right thing. I think that MTV themselves showed their true colors where the controversy was more important to them than doing the right thing.

Bill | 9/14/2009, 9:42 am EST

When idiots like this feel they can do crap like this and get away with it, Its time to boycott them. All they understand is money. Its time to take it all away from this ass.

sconklin | 9/14/2009, 9:46 am EST

a few years ago, Kayne W was seen on TV ranting and raving about how George Bush hates black people (can’t remember why now..) but last night he proved again while millions actaully share that same sentiment. stuff like this only ever seems to happen in the hip-hop/rap world.

NDanielson | 9/14/2009, 9:46 am EST

oh, but he was such a hero when he bashed Bush. my, how he’s changed.

To Sadchica: Get over yourself. You don’t know who’s dished out what, so who are you to say who deserved what? Take your personal issues to another website… or just move to New York and then talk about the real world.

Beyonce had the best choreography in her video. Taylor’s video had a good story to it. It’s anyone’s call. That’s why they have people vote. I wonder if kanye took the time to vote? Doubt it.

Ben Bob | 9/14/2009, 9:47 am EST

can’t believe all seriousness about it. this is kanye west, this is what he does. what would there be to talk about if he hadn’t done that?

as for taylor crying. lighten up woman! you won the award.

Wild West | 9/14/2009, 9:48 am EST

I am not a fan of Swift’s by any stretch of the imagination, but what Kanye did defied belief.

Thank you, and God bless.

the race card | 9/14/2009, 9:48 am EST

no one knows what his motive was for this… BUT i will say that if it was lil wayne up there accepting an award kanye would have never jumped on stage and snatched the mic talking about, “oh jay z shoulda won”… chew on that.

Nick | 9/14/2009, 9:52 am EST

Dick. Disgusting pig.

At first I was impressed that Beyonce was said to be “horrified”, but frankly she looked rather pleased, as others here have noted. At least she has the excuse of possibly being too stunned to know what to do. Kanye West doesn’t have that.

And The Winner Is ..... | 9/14/2009, 9:54 am EST

Kayne……what kind of agent,producer,manager would name someone “kayne”…..If his folks did that DAM !

LMAO ! Kayne is an old Gaelic name meaning “Little Battler “.

I can care less about his music or hers…what I care about is man O man she is fine…fine fine….

It really is too bad that his mother died after he was born.

Melanie | 9/14/2009, 10:03 am EST

Once again Kanye makes an ass of himself. He is so unappreciative of his career. MTV should ban him, but unfortunately that won’t happen. I am not a fan of Taylor Swift. However, she didn’t deserve his idotic interruption, no one does. I hope my children wipe this jerk off their iPods.

da | 9/14/2009, 10:06 am EST

wonder if the shoe was on other foot if he would have done the same thing??? I.E. if Beyonce had won imagine him running out and saying the same thing about taylor swifts vid

Tosha | 9/14/2009, 10:06 am EST

Kanye sucks as a person, but I honestly wouldn’t out that on his mother. He is over 30, and definitely to blame for his own actions. Not to mention the fact that his mother his dead and probably would have told him off had she seen it. He got famous and that mess went straight to his head unfortunately some people don’t know how to behave when they get a little notoriety.

Taylor and Beyonce fan | 9/14/2009, 10:07 am EST

OMGKanye | 9/14/2009, 10:10 am EST

Kanye needs to lay off the booze, etc. Ever heard him sing on SNL — horrible! Needs a recording studio for sure. I’m no fan of Taylor, but KW’s actions were pathetic, rude, and unacceptable. Even is so-called apology is not sincere.

Psychologist | 9/14/2009, 10:11 am EST

I don’t listen to Kanye or Taylor, so this is an unbiased statement. Kanye, if you were a real man in this real world you are talking about you would have had respect for “The People’s Vote” and for other people. What a horrible appology. Do you really think that this poor appology is going to earn your respect back? I am embaraced for you. I mean WOW, you embarased a 17 year old girl. I bet you still roll down the strip with your music cranked up because you still think it is cool. In light of it all the fact is the 17 year old just PUNKED YOU! She showed the world that she has more respect and was more mature by just letting it go and not making a big sceen. My message to you is this, “Make a real public appology! Be Humble!”

T. C. | 9/14/2009, 10:12 am EST

What is it with black make hip-hop culture icons and white, under-age teen girlz? Why all the hatin? First Jamie Foxx dissing Mylie Cyrus and publically calling her a “white bitch” – now Mr Fishsticks is going off on Taylor Swift??? It’s kinda like the US Army going after The Bahamas – you know, kicking ass on the unarmed…WTF???? What a capital “D” Douche!

Is Kanye West racist? Probably. However, who knows if it had anything to do with race. You and I don’t, as you never hang out with him, so who knows what was going on in his head. Maybe he just has a major thing Beyonce? Bottom line is what he did was rude. Simple as that. People who say that he was just speaking he’s mind are just as arrogant as he is. I speak my mind all the time, and I say a lot behind closed doors, however ripping the mic out of the hand of a young girl to speak your mind is just you being pr*ck.

I like his music, and I don’t know one song she sings. I will continue to listen to his music, but I will also continue to ‘borrow’ the music from my friends, so that pompous a$$ doesn’t continue to get richer. I suggest you do the same, it’s the only way that you or I can effect his ego through record sales and the money he earns through them.

Impartial | 9/14/2009, 10:18 am EST

Bottom line kanye acted the way he did because he has no respect for anybody, and taylor didn’t retaliate because she was raised by parents that taught her to respect others(regardless of their arrogance). For you few on here trying to diss taylor keep in mind, even if you don’t like her music she is doing what she likes to do, and was not the one who chose to be nominated nor was she the one who voted.

What’s weird about this is that so many people want to make it a race thing.

It’s not. It’s a rude thing. Don’t be rude too.

For the people who are racist, Black or White. You don’t have to like White people- you don’t have to like Black People.

The only thing you should remember is that we are all playing for the same team. Remember after 9/11, when we looked at each other and saw an American. You can love your own race, love other races or not love at all.

Just don’t loose your dignity, like this creep did. Okay?

mixed girl | 9/14/2009, 10:25 am EST

kanye is a f….n dickhead. He needs to be banned from awards shows. I’m all for the freedom of speech but come on. He’s grown man and she’s just a young girl/woman. It was her moment and the blog he posted give me a break. It’s an apology with more of his bullshit, so it’s not a real apology. He definitely lost me as a fan and supporter. Beyonce is a class act. I don’t fault her for his stupid antics. I don’t think it should be seen as a race thing. It was just Kanye thinking that everyone wants to know what he thinks, you know center of the universe sydrome. I personally don’t give a shit what he thinks and if he were really thinking he would have kept his mouth shut on the show and on the blog. NO apology will ever suffice.

Boy he is a real LOSER. His type will not be around long. Vanilla Ice is more talented than he is.
As for Beyonce, she wasn’t shocked, she only brought Taylor up to make her self look good. She is no different than the retard
It is easier blaming others for your own failure isn’t is Kayne?

Country Girl | 9/14/2009, 10:27 am EST

I have to say that I do not think this has anything to do with race. Simply, class. Apparently, Kanye, lacks any of it. After reading a lot of the comments though I feel I need to point out that a few people are saying that white, country people are making this a racism issue. I listen to lots of music but mostly country and one of my favorite artists right now is Darius Rucker. He is a black man but that does not matter to me. Truth is he is super talented and can sing. I don’t think this has anything to do with the fact that Taylor is white. There are many white people in the rock industry. Please don’t take the comments of an ignorant few and label the rest of us. I have NEVER been racist and NEVER will be.

“…She is very talented! I like the lyrics about being a cheerleader and she’s in the bleachers!”

Nice apology. Very sincere. Love the overuse of exclamation points. I’ve purchased all of his work up until now, but I will never purchase from this assclown again. What a fool. Zero respect. Taylor, you are a class act! And I love my music…. radiohead, pearl jam, modest mouse, ben folds…. and YES, I do have both of Taylor’s albums and they see a lot of action from my CD player. You are wicked talented and your voice is addictive — bunch of douchebags want to knock you, but it’s just a hard industry to break into as a young female pop/country artist. So much monotony, but you will be around for such a long time to come. Shame on you Kanye, for being so lame you jackoff.

Frank | 9/14/2009, 10:32 am EST

Kanye West is a washed up nobody starved for attention.

Some Guy | 9/14/2009, 10:34 am EST

I can’t believe the uproar at what West did to a country music singer, but he was a hero when he disrespected the leader of the free world.

Anyone who has a Kayne cd, or a track on their ipod and didn’t lose it when West went off on President Bush should probably keep rocking to Kayne now, because you have no class and no sense of social responsibility to support such a bad person. He is a bad example for children. Black, White, Yellow, Blue, Purple – we all need to learn to respect each other. We need to learn to accept that we will not always get our way, and there will be times that we have to lose with grace. We have to have the confidence to see our own personal feelings conflict with the general opinions, and we have to deal with that.

What Kayne did wasn’t racist, and it wasn’t cool, or funny, or a publicity stunt. It was a low class move. It was a childish temper tantrum. Alcohol driven or not, it was poor judgment on Kanye’s part. He has shown his true colors once again. He is arrogant. He is an entertainer, one of societies puppets. He’s rich so he thinks he runs the show, but society pulls the string and he performs. Deep down he knows that, and he has to do something to make a splash. If people had any sense of right and wrong they would hold Kayne accountable for his behavior, and they would stop supporting him. People would stop buying his cds, downloading itunes, watching shows with him. Make him a cultural taboo, and poison for other people to work with. Once we stand up against Kayne, we will see him break down and lose it, just like the 10 year old boy he really is deep down inside.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 10:35 am EST

Kayne has a right to his opinion, frankly I was suprised that she won. He did not have the right to strom the stage like a drunk idiot and take away that moment from Taylor, she won and get over it. I do believe if Lady Gaga or Pink were on that stage he would of gotten his ass kicked.

KAREN | 9/14/2009, 10:35 am EST

I just read Kanye’s blog, what a jerk!! He says I’m sorry BUT! What kind of apology is that?? He thinks he can do and say whatever he wants to who he wants. He had no Right to Steal her Glory!! I am not even a fan of Taylor Swift’s music but I am a mother of a 17 year old girl and he should be ashamed of his behavior instead of defending it. Thank You Beyonce for having class and acknowleging the hurt that Taylor was feeling. You are alright with me!!

Real Music | 9/14/2009, 10:44 am EST

That is the problem with music these days. lyrics like birthday sex and lolly pops in reference to a penis…

Its not really melody or harmony. Pop music in the now is a digital commercial punch line with what ever catch phrase young folks are using.

Zero talent and people eat it up because they are followers not leaders.

In my day our music spoke for something it had memory it had meaning. To date you still hear music from my era on the radio over new talent because their is no real stand out musician out their right now worthy of the alumni of say…..Led Zeppelin or The Beatles……I can go on and on…. the list is long for those old veterans of wordsmith and musical ability from life lessons and pure heart and the road of life.

Not some Cat In The Hat Rhyme Theme half ass gangsta rap with a sample beat that has been played out so many times its like eating at Taco Bell. That’s not music ! …it’s all about cloths hanging off your ass with a ball cap on backwards and talking like your hard in a middle class neighborhood and you spit ” See Spot Run…BOOM BOOM It’s Fun Spot Run Boom Boom “…..

That kind of music breeds that kind of people. Kanya Kenya or what ever the hell your name is….take a long walk off a short peer and do the world a favor.

One less a-hole on the planet will do us all a favor.

BAN RAP AND HIP HOP !

ROCK AND ROLL !

Who gives a F*%k what your “reality” is, nobody asked for for opinion. If you were so real you’d have enough confidence in yourself to accept the attention you get as is and would not have to perform idiotic stunts (while hurting other people) to get attention. By the way was that Hennesey even real, Mr. I’m real? I thought that in my NYC it was illegal to walk around with a bottle of alchohol, why didn’t MTV make him put it down? I mean come on Mr. Real……why would you act like such an ass and take the spotlight away from a young girl?!!!! I think you should seek therapy. And by the way you are no Michael Jackson, you have some talent but before you get the recognition you want you best broaden your horizons, you are no genious. You’re on a spiral downward losing the respect of your peers.

Hey Kanye,

Recently I have been sleep deprived because of Ramstein orders. Im the best photographer in the world. Im just saying, Im just saying. Your apology does nothing, so shut your mouth for once.

Thank you

....what'd I miss ? | 9/14/2009, 10:50 am EST

I didn’t watch the VMA’s, I don’t listen to any of the music discussed, but I did watch the clips of what happened, so I offer this objective view…the “artist”,Kanye, was horribly rude and un-called for. No racism involved, he was just plain disrespectful, uncivil and childish. The people voted for Taylor, she won…end of story. They also voted for Beyonce, she won a different award…end of story. Kanye stuck his foot in his mouth and as far as I’m concerned, he should leave it there so that we don’t have to listen to his “music” anymore.

Happyhrt | 9/14/2009, 10:51 am EST

Kanye, there is no excuse for rudeness and bad manners as you displayed last night toward Taylor Swift and the audience at the VMAs.
There is an appropriate time and place to express your disagreement and opinion. You made a poor choice last night. What goes around comes around, and, sometimes, when it does, it bites hard. I hope that you will learn from this outburst and take a lesson from Beyonce about professionalism, class, and character.

FreeFinger | 9/14/2009, 10:51 am EST

Sorry, but anyone who’s using the race card are just trying to start a fight. Whether West is black, white or beige (as Russel Peters would say) the fact is that most little twerps like him make it in this business and still get idiots to buy their CD’s, perfume, aparel, or whatever else they’ll whore their image against.

I don’t blame the race but MTV to push the rap and R&B artists who flash money and women around like they own them and making them superstars in an industry that basically lost most of it’s craft when no talents started sampling music and adding lyrics on top of them then having MTV treat them better than actual artist who write, play and produce music, not just a back beat with some samples..

Sorry, but West is the culmination of years of talentless acts that were pushed to the top. Having 15 categories for rap artists by saying “Soul; R&B; Hip-hop; Rap; Ganster Rap;” and the rest as rewards for what they have done is only contributing to pushing society downwards.

Everything the previous black artists have done to break the mold and be accepted as musicians who could play anywhere and everywhere is being laughed at by this new generation of samplers.

Just look at what B.B. King; Muddy Waters, and the rest went thru go make it. Being harassed every day, being refused in certain clubs ect, people like West bring all the work they did for the next generation down and give more amunitions to the KKK’s of this world. It’s a sad freaking tale…

I saw Beyonce’s video, didn’t think it was that great… But if she would’ve won, would we have seen some country music star go on and say that the other one should’ve gotten the award? .. no.

I have to say that not all of them seem to be idiots, but the few bad ones just overhype the feeling, and that’s too bad..

West just proved to the world how classless he was. Massive boycott from all related products with his name, but also for all companies that distribute or sale his articles and CD’s should be the answer.. Let them know that we’re tired of this clown!

Congrats to Beyonce to have done what she did, and understand that even she can’t win them all. She proved that she had class. While I wasn’t a fan of hers, today I respect her and admire her for the step she took to let the other one take stage. She at least seems to be able the repair what idiots are doing.

Congrats to the winners.

I was horrified for Taylor as I was watching this. I am not a big fan of hers but it doesn’t matter.Her video was great and deserved the award.She’s young and it was her first Moonman.K.W. needs to put away the Hennessey and think about where his life and career are headed.

Matt | 9/14/2009, 10:54 am EST

This has nothing to with race and I don’t think kanye west is an idiot for being black, I think he is just an idiotic person who lets his superstar status affect his decisions. Like so many others out there. I don’t really care that much about Swift’s music but obviously she is a young girl who just won a very important award for her career and she was humiliated on national tv and in the presence of many top celebs in her business.

By the way even the people who think its racist towards Taylor are racist themselves. He did d-bag move plain and simple. Nothing to do with race.

mandy moore | 9/14/2009, 10:55 am EST

That is a non-apology! I love the spelling and grammar mistakes that would make a five year old blush. It is a shame that someone as ignorant, hateful and raciest as you has such a platform.

Taking the mic from a 17 yr old girl…you must be proud! Hats off to Beyonce for her classy and delicate approach to the situation…..Bravo!

mickers | 9/14/2009, 10:59 am EST

kanye west is the joe wilson of ‘music’. whatever you disagree with, just yell and interrupt and be a second-grader in need of a good time-out.

the best thing in the world for kanye west is to have a few of his fake teeth knocked down his throat by the fist of someone bigger than him. it does wonders for arrogance. of course, this assumes he can pull his head out of his own ass long enough.

his mother would be so proud of him right now.

he lost another fan. goodbye to kanye west, loser extraordinaire.

Jesse Tenorsax Dunn | 9/14/2009, 10:59 am EST

I Think Kayne’s ego is too big, he is always doing stuff like this, last week he went to a Chili’s and brought like 15 people with him, he ordered everybody to leave the bar so his “buddies could sit with him”. Unfortunately he had no right since the people that were already at the bar paid. Kayne was upset the his request was denied and left the building. Kayne just doesn’t know how to treat people.

Hell I didn’t even know that MTV even played videos anymore. Everytime I look at the guide they’ve got some crap reality show on. They must have payed Mr. West to do that so they’d get press today. Of course he had to do it to a 17 year old girl. If it had been another guy he’d had his ass kicked.

paige | 9/14/2009, 11:04 am EST

Just as he has proven time and time again, talent cannot fix rotten. Kanye West is one of the most class-less, crass, obnoxious talents out there. He’s a little brat stomping his feet when he doesn’t get his way. You’re like school in summer Kanye, no class. No class at all. Shame on you. The younger generation looks to your actions and takes lead from them. Let’s hope they are learning how NOT to behave, as your behavior time and time again is an abomination. Shame on you. AGAIN.

Kudos to the young lady for taking it all in stride… let’s hope in the years to come that the industry get’s back to real music and leve this crap behind!

cardamom | 9/14/2009, 11:10 am EST

it is my opinion that kanye west is an egotistical little man child whose mother indulged him into the point that he sincerely believes the self-aggrandizing rhetoric that he walks around with. moreover, it is likely he has a real and potentially treatable issue with narcissistic tendencies which are borne out of his mother’s overindulgence. that he did this points to the idea that he cannot manage to see others in the spotlight, i.e. 2005 when he said, “george bush doesn’t care about black people.” What he was really saying then as he is saying now is “pay attention to me.” much like a child, kanye west has no ability whatsoever to share the spotlight. he is pathetic. everything he does is to grab the spotlight so people pay attention to him.

Not Surprised | 9/14/2009, 11:12 am EST

I guess it was hard for Kanye West to know that not everyone in America believes R&B to be “all that”. It is amazing that no matter how successful, rich, and famous Kanye gets he obviously feels small and insignificant. Kanye West has serious self-esteem issues. He’s proven that all his “blowing his own horn” is nothing but a cry to be a real man.
Applause and hats off to Taylor Swift for being so gracious and knowing how to handle a little boy’s tantrum that things did not go the way he thought it should.

George Mc | 9/14/2009, 11:14 am EST

If you think he is not racist then google his name and just listen ti all the comment he has made. Even black people are commenting on the things he says. If it would have been a white man charge the stage after a black person won the award we all would be watching it on court T.V. and hearing it on every law channel around. Get a grip he was a jerk will always be a jerk

Kanye showed us a side of himself that made us all cringe: BULLY! The whole thing reminded me of the movie Carie. There’s this skinny country girl with big dreams and here comes the cool popular kid squashing her like bug infront of everyone at prom. Classic bully behavior. Thank goodness for Beyonce making things correct, and showing us SOME artists have class. One more thing…Lil Mama looked like a mall rat. I’m pretty sure JAYZ will have nothing to do with her EVER. How embarrassing! Interrupting such a great performance just to be on TV! SUPER FAIL!

Ya can’t lie..though what Kanye did was wrong, that ish was mad funny..with sprinkles!! Especially when you look at the fact that Russell Brand was the worst host ever, Kanye had the most entertaining moment of night!!

But Kanye was in the right mind state!!! He shouldn’t of acted upon those thoughts, but c’mon…The VMA’s are stupid!! How does Beyonce win Video of the year, but lose Best Female video? No explanation can justify that!! Thats like winning a championship without making the playoffs!! Ewww..Nasty!!!

Why do we continue to put up with this?! I also don’t consider this about race. Don’t blame anybody for what one piece of crap does. He’s an embarrassment to all. Until he learns some respect, he should be banned from events. He’s not near as good as he thinks he is and what was up with the hair?? (Thought Pink rocked)

jetnode | 9/14/2009, 11:25 am EST

As a music lover, I am appalled at the actions of last night’s event. It is a celebration of all music videos, whether it be country, rock or rap. Mr. West was totally out of line, the apology presented should be not be accepted, as he stated in his tirade that was how he felt, he was speaking from the heart. Now that the drinks have worn off, and the lipstick is off the pig, comes a sloppy apology. What has changed to make him change what he felt in his heart, is it the fact that everybody is roasting his bottom, or the fact that this could be it for his superstar lifestyle that he has so arrogantly taken for granted? I would like to add a side note to Wale, choose your battles wisely young man, as you could have very well have enjoyed your last day in the sun.

He can not even stand in the same ring as Jay Z-, Tupac, Biggie, Eminem, etc. Stop your crying and GROW UP!!! What he did was unexcuseable. At least we know that Beyonce was not as classless as him, and gave it up to the girl for her award. I hope he gets dropped from his label and NOONE ever picks him up again.

I have often told my kids that you can make millions, have a big house, drive a big car but money does not buy class – Kanye West sure proved this last night at the VMA’s!!!

Rita | 9/14/2009, 11:44 am EST

The fact of the matter is he disrespected this girl, MTV, The music Industry and all the fans in front of millions. Nevermind the fact that he showed his true colors as being an arrogant, rude, obnoxious, nasty and selfish…He doesn’t deserve to be heard anymore, period. Everyone is entitled to opinion, yes..But who asked him or gave him the right to stomp on stage like that? He needs to sit his dumbass down and speak when spoken to.. we’ve had enough of your antics..Hennessy or no Hennessy, be a man and step up and take responsibility for your arrogance..Stop making excuses, cuz it’s getting old..That so called “apology” was lame as hell…Kudos to Beyonce for being such a Class Act..

Don | 9/14/2009, 11:44 am EST

He’s a no talent , rude, classless jack ass who should just go away. Anyone who defends him a loser.

Winter | 9/14/2009, 11:45 am EST

Kanye writes good music but is a moron. This goes down as one of the most asenine moments in his career and hopefully someone will kick him in his face the next time he is presenting or on any stage with classy individuals.

kanye made a huge favor to taylor. her popularity can only go skyhigh after this, unfortunately. b.t.w., gayfish’s outburst was the highlight of an otherwise dull and humorless show (thanks to russell bland, respectively). kanye continously cracks me up. keep up the good work!

anonymous | 9/14/2009, 11:52 am EST

tbh, i have never heard of Taylor swift so i agree with kayne, beyonce should have won, but that was pretty harsh for a young girl like Taylor. But, Béyonce did win the Best video of the year… =) Gratz to both of them

g | 9/14/2009, 11:53 am EST

I commented earlier, but i wanted to add something.

It’s true, it certainly would be interesting to see Kanye’s reaction if someone pulled the microphone out of his hand after he had won something.

This isn’t at all about who you believe should have/should not have won, ultimately.
It’s just about respect.

I’m sure that many artists might have felt similarly at some point, and thought: “Hmm, I thought ‘xyz’ would have won this award”.
But, they didn’t do what kw did. That makes a difference.
I don’t watch (or have) mtv, or award shows in general, but this was pretty shocking and disappointing to hear about.

why | 9/14/2009, 11:53 am EST

why would you do that kanye west, i am a fan of your music, but you have to be one of the most stupidest person for doing that… after that i am not sure if i even want to listen to your music anymore… you know you are nothing like what you sing about supposebly your went to church and you are a changed man…. no you are not you are a real jerk…. it was her moment of spolight… and you chrushed her on stage…. Taylor swift does deserve the award she won it fare and square…. and that apoligy bring your mom into the speech very low you just want people to feel sympathy for you your pathetic

Petardo | 9/14/2009, 11:53 am EST

Don’t make this about race, Kanye just happens to be a black kid (not a man) who has no class and not much talent for that matter.I guess he got the attention he was looking for.Don’t go away in a blaze of glory, just go away.

anonymous | 9/14/2009, 11:54 am EST

Kanye has always thought the world rotates around him and he is the center of everything. What do you want to bet that he told his mother that she seemed a little chunky in their photograph taken together at another award show and suggested surgery so she could look better on his arm?

nate | 9/14/2009, 11:56 am EST

That Southpark episode with him becoming a gay fish hit the nail on the head. This dude is the most arrogant douche bag the world has seen. Why in the hell people ever thought he was cool in the first place is beyond me.

Connie | 9/14/2009, 11:56 am EST

Classless and extremely unprofessional, Kanye! I have a feeling it wasn’t a proud moment for your Mother looking down from Heaven. On the contrary, Beyonce and Taylor showed the exact opposite at the end of the night with how they handled the situation–exceptional job ladies!!

You really cant fix stupid! And i think she is 100 times better than Beyonce. Personaly i think Beyonce sucks as an artist compared to Taylor Swift. If it werent for Beyonce’s husband she wouldnt be where she is today. ANd kanye needs to face the truth and get some damn help

Stop | 9/14/2009, 12:00 pm EST

no need to bring race into this. Kanye is just an asshole, regardless of color. He wanted beyonce to win, she didnt so he cried. there is no doubt that he would disrespect anyone else who won because he is and arrogant ass hole. kanye sucks.

Some of you bloggers are so screwed up. This is not an black & white issue. I’m African American and I think what Kanye did is one of the sickest displays I’ve seen by a human being. The look on that girls face made me emotional & I’ve never heard her music. Nevertheless, he had absolutely no right to take away her moment. He should be banned from MTV completely. I have deleted him from my iTunes & trashed all of his CD’s. I will never support him again. Now, for all you bigots and evil doers who’s hearts are filled with hate, you are no better on a day to day basis. Wake up and realize that hate deteriorates your well being. It shows from the inside out. You will be judged one day, trust me. As for Kanye, his day is coming. Karma doesn’t take breaks.

why | 9/14/2009, 12:02 pm EST

all the people who say tha what kanye west did was right… you guys are wrong… how would you like it if you were a singer and he said yo im happy for you but i think this person had the best video ever basicly telling you that they are better than you… especially if he just take the mic from your had… kanye think he deserve what he want… like that one time saying he deserved the award… no he didnt he deserves nothing hes a true major jerk…

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 12:04 pm EST

This talentless fool needs to apologize then go away. He’s not an real artist or respected, but a circus act. I agree a boycott of anything attached to him is in order. From future VMA to pulling all his crappy recordings off store shelves and burning them. His name isn’t even worth speaking from here on out. Hit him in the pocketbook and maybe someday when he’s cleaning the grease tray at McDonalds he’ll understand how lucky he once was to have a career at all and how he should’ve just shut up because he never deserved fame and fortune. Taylor and Beyonce are great talents and don’t deserve to have their names attached to a wannabe like this loser.

how mistaken you are. mtv are the definition on capitalists. you say there wouldn’t be any vma’s if it wasn’t for black people. wtf? are you retarded. if everyone was playing and buying the sound of you fcuking your mother on a friday night (like you do) they would package that and give you an award. my point being, whatever the ‘in’ thing will be celebrated on mtv. in the 80’s/90’s it was crappy pop music, in the 2000’s it’s samples of music of that crappy music with rhyming over it.

So, don’t be dumb with your silly comments that the vma’s are only around b/c of black people. country music is taking over as teh largest genre, maybe that’s why beyonce didn’t win the female catergory.

WTF? | 9/14/2009, 12:06 pm EST

First off-

Beyoncé Single Ladies is GOD AWFUL!!! And I can’t see why all the hype on a song that is melodically challenged with a video of 3 girls in awkward poses/dance moves (what in the world made that video the best of the year???). It’s hard to listen to and watch. Just shows that if Beyoncé made a clothing line of feces, it would bring in millions. Our society is so wrapped up in following celebrities and it’s so sad. Now, I dont believe Taylor Swift is anything spectacular either- She is very ordinary and very…..teen pop.

The fact that Kanye would even think that he is so damn special (which he’s not) and that people would value his opinion even when done in the most obnoxious display, shows just how self-absorbed he is and couldn’t even think about what kind of position he put Beyoncé in. How embarrassing.

There should be a fine in unsportsmanlike conduct.

Mary | 9/14/2009, 12:11 pm EST

Unbelievable. What a jerk!
Thank goodness Beyonce has class–unlike Kanye–and was such a gracious lady about it. Poor Taylor. She won that award fair and square. Shame on Kanye for being such a pompous jerk that he felt he really had to steal her moment. I was absolutely disgusted with his “I’m so awesome” attitude before, but now…!

David | 9/14/2009, 12:12 pm EST

Kanye is an over-rated talentless hack. His wack ass beats and crappy rap lyrics shouldn’t even be mention in the same catagory of real artist. If it wasn’t for his antics, this overprivleaged mommas boy would fall from public view.

Kanye West is an untalented rap star with no musical knowledge or human feeling whatsoever. As a non-fan of his, I suggest a boycott of his music.

Jazzman | 9/14/2009, 12:19 pm EST

Had Taylor slapped the crap out of him,I would not have thought any lesser of her, he would have deserved it. You just don’t take someone’s moment away like that. I guess all the money and fame in the world does not give you class. I just hope you get to experience the same, maybe it will make you a better person, then again you probably don’t give a shit which is worse because that would just prove what you are. A LOSER!!!!!

Kanye West is a disrespectful person. Doesn’t matter how strongly you feel about something, have some class and deal with it professionally. He did it because it was Taylor Swift and he could get away with it. He’s a punk, and he has no class. Forget the “being real” bull, and forget the apology, It’s too late and it’s fake. Stupid drunk ass.

Maybe if some celebrities that Kanye respects publicly chastised him for his poor behavior he would listen to them. Still, I doubt it. He’s a gay fish.

DvsPinay | 9/14/2009, 12:29 pm EST

This isn’t an apology. Kanye still sounds like a stuck up conceited cocky ass! How is this an apology when he’s still saying that he’s keeping it real by saying that he’s a fan of real pop! How about defining what real pop is! It’s definitely not Kanye’s music! I’m not saying his music is not good, but pop is also about the person who creates and performs the song! All because Kanye is such a freakin’ drama king and cocky ass, I will never listen to any of his music!

frank | 9/14/2009, 12:29 pm EST

k(lower case)anye is a pig, plain and simple. Now all he can think about is how to save his sorry ass with his “tweets”. People like him don’t change, it’s who they are. I hope his 15 minutes are over.

Old Rocker | 9/14/2009, 12:29 pm EST

Kanye’s behavior and outburst was definitely rude and showed absolutely no class. Regardless if one’s personal opinion about an award recipient’s win is deserving, it is still their win fair and square. Their win should be respected not dissed in any way. This is truly an incident where respect was tossed aside by Kanye, and sadly he has lost the respect of many people including some of his professional peers. Maybe he can learn from his disrespectful behavior and work to redeem himself through positive and respectful actions in the future. To Taylor, I can only offer this: take a deep breath, and let it go. This is not your fault, handle it with class and respect, and move forward in a positive way with your life and your talent. To Beyonce, thank you for bringing class, respect, and dignity back to the show. You are a true and classy Lady.

Kanye pull the old “any publicity, good or bad, is good for my career” trick. Look at Madonna, she’s way past her shelf life and she’s been successfully using public relations for years.

I don’t agree with what he did, but I do admire his guts for doing something so obviously wrong.

Taylor Swift should learn from these “masters” if she wants to extend her career another 5 years.

Taylor fan | 9/14/2009, 12:32 pm EST

Kanye is a dicklick who needs to get over himself. I like his music but I can’t stand him as a person.
I love Taylor Swift’s music and she has a huge following of fans who I’m sure are all equally as appalled by what took place last night.
Go Taylor! And Kanye, go die off somewhere.

No Name | 9/14/2009, 12:32 pm EST

Kanye is a total ass but I also blame MTV for letting this happen, I guess bad publicity is still publicity. I know Kanye has lost some of his fan base but I can’t help think how many new fans he has made because of it. Kanye, I hope you choke on the fame and fortune you sold your soul for.

The Hype Has Ended | 9/14/2009, 12:38 pm EST

This is not new. This marginally talented so-called artist has been doing this sort “look at me, I’m a bad-ass dangerous rock star with bottle-in-hand” acting routine for a while. And it was old the first time he did it. What doesn’t escape me and what many are finally realizing is that this little man is not that good musically – not in the pantheon of classic rock or classic black music. So he loses in both, and history will not vindicate all his small mind antics. And at the end of the day, Kanye, that’s all you’ll be left with… antics only a mother could love.

Because you certainly have never even come close MUSICALLY to any of the best artists in black music. You’ll always be left in the dust by most “real” true artists and musicians. From Ray Charles to James Brown, Donny Hathaway to Stevie Wonder, the many other Motown greats to Michael Jackson, and way more talented rappers including everyone from Melle Mel, Kool Moe Dee, D.M.C., KRS-One, Rakim, LL, the Beasties, Big Daddy Kane, Biggie, yeah Eminem too… even J.J. Fad leaves you behind, little man! You’ve always been *nothing* but soul-less corporate HYPE. A hype that no longer blinds. R.I.P. Kanye…

Fay from Houston | 9/14/2009, 12:42 pm EST

It took two women to show that boy how he was acting. He can’t sing and that is why he will never get the award. Beyonce is a class act from Houston Texas and she has worked hard to get where she is. She handled it just like she should have, with r-e-s-p-e-c-t.

Kanye does it again... | 9/14/2009, 12:44 pm EST

To the people saying that he “expressed himself”…what he did is actually called defamation. I imagine avid Kanye followers won’t know what ‘defamation’ means so google it. He publicly humiliated that girl to state HIS opinion, which had no substance/ fact. On that note…why does ANYONE think “Single Ladies” was the best video?!? Because it’s been mimicked by fans? Well, I guess “Do the Ricky Bobby” and “Stanky Legg” should’ve won, too!
And to the people who are saying that he made the MTV awards “interesting”…there is a difference between positive and negative attention. Kanye: use your “fame” to help humanity. Stop turning people against eachother and perpetuating racism. You are trash who struck it lucky. You were better behind the scenes as a producer. Why’d you have to come out and be so heartless…oh the irony!

I am not saying it is ok..but it is the reality. Shoot..I know I will still listen to his music..and it is what it is…its how he feels..so life goes on…

I understand the whole “any publicity is good publicity” mentality (think Eminem and “Bruno,”) but pulling a stunt like that on a young girl who clearly was blindsided is inexcusable. Kudos for Beyonce showing more class. I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t cancel on Leno. If Leno is smart, he will cancel Kanye.

What a classless pig. Do you think he would have done that to a male country western singer? no, he would have gotten his azz rolled. Do you think he would have done that to any other person in the “real pop culture”? no. but because he is such a tough “pop culture” guy, he does it to a 19 year old, female, white, country western singer.

Kanye is a dumdass. Taylor should have jammed her heel up his ass. Hows that for good publicity!

Maria | 9/14/2009, 12:56 pm EST

Kanye just managed to ruin the night for not only Taylor Swift, but for Beyonce (who had to give her moment away) and does anybody even remember the LOVELY speech Madonna made for Michael Jackson and Janet’s brilliant performance for her brother? NO! Thanks alot Kanye! You managed to ruin the tribute to the King of Pop, and a young girl’s shining moment! The only thing good that came out of this is that we all were reminded of how classy Beyonce truly is. Do us all a favor and go away already. We’ve had enough!

Like a lot of ppl, kanye is sick of bubble gum pop shit winning over some real talent. this could be a case of keepin it real gone wrong but K is still gonna be gettin his… Yeah this shows his true face behind the media facade, but what did you think? the world isn’t all sunshine and lemon drops.
Kanye keep staying real!!! ” Now I could let these dream killers kill my self-esteem

I don’t watch the VMA’s, I couldn’t tell you one song of Kanye’s or even Beyonce for many reasons. It’s not my type of music. I do however Know a lot of Taylor’s music. It’s a matter or opinion If I was in charge of judging by default I’d have to say Taylor Swift. I’m not saying Beyonce isn’t talented she is it’s not my type of music. I’m a better judge of Country music and Musicals then I am with any other type of music. I think there is a time and place for stating your opinions not humiliating someone one. What he did was wrong, He never had a fan in me, nor will he ever.

I think Kanye needs to stop having so many b—h fits at the awards. The time he got mad for not winning an award, turned me off, I liked him but I stopped supporting his music, for acting spoiled and Im sure Im not the only one. I think he did it again to himself…WHACK!!!!

Jerell | 9/14/2009, 1:05 pm EST

I think Kanye iz gettin a lil 2 full of himself. He thinks cuz he’s down with Jazy-Z that he can come up on the stage and cause problems. Beyonce’ is at the “I don’t give a crap if I win an award stage” She’s won so many awards and performed all over the world, but Taylor had the #1 album and she’s a breakout artist. She’s bringin somethin new 2 what pop culture iz all about. Making pop new and taking it to the next level. A country starlette in the pop world? unheard of. That girl can write, sing and she’s tasteful. Looks like Kanye dropped outa college for a reason, cuz he’s still on that high school shyt.

the truth | 9/14/2009, 1:07 pm EST

Kanye was completely out of line for how he humiliated Taylor, but he was speaking the truth. Not the time, nor the place, but Beyonce’s video was definitely more original than that teenie bopper crap Taylor Swift made.

Im sick of people sayin he’s from Chicago, none of us act like that ask common.. But why are we surprised? This is Kanye West, The only thing that got me is She is such a young girl. I would like to know if Pink had won, if he’d still jump onstage? Id loved to see that she’d knock him out and carey would have ran up too, that would be funny, but a child? What man does that?

People please, being black is nothing to do with Kanye West outburst. Taylor won fair. West has done many cocky and rude things at awards shows. This one it not a surprise to me either. Comments like black ppl need to be sterilized? Come on now…I don’t know Taylor’s music but clearly it was out voted by the judges. This isn’t about beyonce and taylor it’s only about Taylor. She’s going to be fine, this is great press for her to make her name even bigger than before. Cause now I want to hear her music and watch her videos.

Brian Pride | 9/14/2009, 1:16 pm EST

I’d like to see Kanye try that with Miley Cyrus and her father standing up there. I like Beyonce too but she didn’t win that award. Better luck next year. Kanye ought to complain to Jesse Jackson maybe he’ll give a damn.

West has always been garbage | 9/14/2009, 1:17 pm EST

West has always been a piece of garbage, its just taking some longer to realize it than others. Talk show hosts shouldn’t reward him by booking him (they will of course, watch for him on all the shows now). If you were dumb enough to buy his albums before I hope you learned by now, throw his crap out (or delete it). Freedom of speech is one thing, but we don’t have to buy from him.

What the hell happened to your College Dropout days when you weren’t such an attention-needy bastard? Because, I used to be your biggest fan when you put out real hip hop and not this “I bang sluts at the club and bump coke” type of shit you play right now.
Don’t forget your roots, Kanye. We all like you better when you played that type of shit…or at least I do.

So that was beyonce’s greatest of all time, “i’m a ding-a-ling, I’m a ding-a-ling.” Everyone is calling the “pop” music talent, its marketing. Kanye, yeah we knew this was something he would do, it his character, whats an appology for if thats just the way you are.

It’s funny that real artists, like McCartney and Ringo Starr can sell a bazillion copies of their new boxed sets (stereo and mono) without throwing tantrums in public and whoring themselves in front of cameras for publicity, yet hacks like Kanye restort to this kind of self-absorbed publicity. Every performance artist should be ashamed for Kanye. Who knew a brat (is Kanye really older than 7 years old?) could continuously break through security backstage, from the sidestage and the bouncer/photo pit time and time again to do this. What a hack loser ….

It's simple | 9/14/2009, 1:32 pm EST

Reading at least half of these comments has brought me to the conclusion that we all judge each other in the harshest ways! Some of you are on Kanye’s side because you like his music, or on Taylor’s because you enjoy hers. Then we have the race issue. I personally like the comments that state “but Taylor is such a sweet person,” and “Kanye is just keepin it real.” I want you all to close your eyes picture yourself on-stage and your very closest, maybe your BEST friend coming up to you, grabbing the mic from your hand and basically telling you in so many words that you aren’t good enough. Then imagine it being said in front of your immediate friends and family. Would you be ok with that?

Kanye west is a douch bag. That wasn’t even a real apology. he just reworded his feelings that Beyonce should have won. Taylor Swift deserved the award and I am thankful Beyonce gave Swift the chance to claim her moment. Kanye has lost my support. Wake up stars, your in the spot light. weather your Michael Vick or Kanye West, you have to stop acting like idiots.

consequences of our words & actions have a tremendous effect in our lives. This is incident is a clear manifestation of lack of respect. I believe there are a lot of ways to show our opinions but not to the point of stepping on the dignity of the other. Come to think of it, Taylor is a “lady” and is still very young. Kanye did a very unacceptable behavior. He should have been a good example to the music industry especially an inspiration to the youth as he already gained a lot of recognitions. I will not say anything bad to him because right now I just feel plainly sorry for him that he bears this kind of ATTITUDE.

Hey Kanye, How about we come up with a new award show just for you , where your nominated for and win every single award . Would that satisfy you douche bag ? By the way -instead of acting like a jack ass all the time & then apologizing after the fact , why don’t you try not showing your ignorance to start with. You are without a doubt the most obnoxious & ignorant person in the music industry today.

Yea whatever...another stunt | 9/14/2009, 1:39 pm EST

If you think Kanye’s screw up is a race issue then you are truly rude & ignorant as Kanye. What he did to Taylor is mean and rude, but MTV, Beyonce and even Taylor are probably glad that he did that. That boring excuse for VMA’s was putting everyone to sleep. MTV probably unleashed Kanye for publicity! I still think the whole thing was staged. How easy for him to get on stage with his history to acting out is way beyond me.

I would not have thought less of poor Taylor if she would have nailed that moron in back of his dumb ass haircutted head with her well deserved moon man. I would have fallin over laughing histerically while watching that idiot bleed.
Kanye sucks big fat ugly porno dick, and so does his music. Which was evident when an american idol contestant did KW’s song 50 times better than he ever could.
His appology was worthless. Hey I’m just keeping it real. MORON.

Jesus loves me | 9/14/2009, 1:44 pm EST

Shame on Kanye West. I knew there was a reason I hated him when he first came out with his first single.
He is an arrogant asshole and what he did to Taylor, wholly justifies it.
He is a terrible person, and I am glad to have a reason to Boycott him without feeling like I have a personal vendetta against him.
Only a terrible person would do such a thing… Taylor won fairly, because obviously the people voted.
So fuck you Kanye West.
You’re so full of yourself, that I think you’re the only one who actually loves you.

If he wanted to speak his mind, he could have done it in a different way like on his blog or something, so him speaking his mind has nothing to do with this. dont give me that BS

The Hype Has Ended | 9/14/2009, 1:46 pm EST

This is not new. This marginally talented so-called artist has been doing this sort “look at me, I’m a bad-ass dangerous rock star with bottle-in-hand” acting routine for a while. And it was old the first time he did it. What doesn’t escape me and what many are finally realizing is that this little man (yeah, you, Kanye) is not that good musically – not in the pantheon of classic rock or classic black music. So he loses in both, and history will not vindicate all his small mind antics. And at the end of the day, Kanye, that’s all you’ll be left with… antics only a mother could love.

Because you, Kanye, certainly have never even come close MUSICALLY to any of the best artists in black music. You’ll always be left in the dust by most “real” true artists and musicians (keeping it and being real are 2 different things, Kanye). From Ray Charles to James Brown, Donny Hathaway to Stevie Wonder, the many other Motown greats to Michael Jackson, and way more talented rappers including everyone from Melle Mel, Kool Moe Dee, D.M.C., KRS-One, Rakim, LL, the Beasties, Big Daddy Kane, Biggie, yeah Eminem too… even J.J. Fad leaves you behind, little man.

You’ve always been *nothing* but soul-less corporate HYPE. A hype that no longer blinds. R.I.P. Kanye…

Sick of Racism | 9/14/2009, 1:47 pm EST

What he did was a completely racially motivated act. He should be run out of town and dropped by every record label. Racism is Racism no matter what the color of the person it is coming from.

Can you say "get help"? | 9/14/2009, 1:48 pm EST

Kanye west needs professional help. His friends need to do an intervention of sort so he does not dig a deeper hole for himself. For you to have the balls to go on stage at the VMAs in front of millions to “speak your mind” by dissing a teenager then flip the audience for speaking their minds by booing you, you must be in an altered state of mind and have a delusion of grandeur.

Kanye is an A**hole! | 9/14/2009, 1:50 pm EST

The look on Taylor’s face. She was crushed. Beyonce was horrified! Who the h*ll does this slimeball think he is? Beyonce showed true class by allowing Taylor to say thank you. I will NEVER buy a Kanye cd after this. I hope he gets tossed out on his ass by his record label.

NICK97979 | 9/14/2009, 1:51 pm EST

kANYE WEST IS A TOTAL ASS. NO ONE CARES WHO HE THINKS SHOULD HAVE WON. OBVIOUSLY PEOPLE THOUGHT THAT TAYLOR SWIFT SHOULD HAVE WON. IF SOME ONE DID THAT TO HIM HE WOULD CRY LIKE A BITCH FOR WEEKS. KANYE IS A CLASSES PIECE OF TRASH THAT SHOULD BE BANNED FROM THESE EVENTS. I WILL NEVER BUY OR DOWNLOAD ONE OF HIS SONGS AGAIN. I WISH HE DID THAT TO SOMEONE WHO WOULD PUNCH HIM IN THE MOUTH AND BREAK HIS GLASS JAW.

Bottom line…. Kanye West is a big jerk and bully. He is entitled to his opinion that Beyonce should have won the award; however he is NOT entitled to state his opinion in such a disrespectful, rude, tasteless manner. I am certain that Kanye’s deceased mother would not have approved of his poor behavior. Shame on you Kanye!

ok so after me and my family watched that we were all stunned and started arguing about it (as u all probably were). It was EXTREMELY obvious that beyonce should have won.. and even Taylor was suprirsed herself..and when kanye said that..at first i was like oh my gosh thank gosh someone stepped up and said that! cuz we were all in the heat of the moment.. but then i thought about it and I was extremely dissappointed as everyone else was! Kanye, it may be TOTALLY true of what u stated, but it was the wRONG time and PLEASE keep it to yourself. That was her moment to speak and u took it away from her. and Wale or whatever saying he’s ’speaking his mind’… bull-shit…that shows immaturity, low dignity, and lack of manners. Kanye..u’ll still probably make good songs.. whatever..but most people don’t have respect for you anymore and it’s going to be hard to gain it back u sore loser.

Kanye West is a Douche bag in every sense of the word, and sorry to say but if a “white” performer did that to a “black” person on stage receiving an award then it would be racism. Kanye is a Jig and I am glad I never bought any of his music. It says in bold letters…. The fans chose, She sold more than beyonce… End of story.

The Lucky Idiots | 9/14/2009, 1:59 pm EST

“Like a lot of ppl, kanye is sick of bubble gum pop shit winning over some real talent.”

Anyone that believes that these delusional puppets like
kanye are the talent of our world, are not true fans of music – these are the ones that let the lables/media dictate their favorite bands instead of digging for the good stuff…like real music fans do. kanye is less than “bubble gum pop shit”, if I EVER heard it.

I saw kanye at Coachella – believe me, I didn’t want to…I was just sitting and he stormed into MY space! Anyway, the best song he played was a recording of “A-ha” while he just danced! Oh yeah, TALENT!!!

This guy had one big song that wasn’t even a song so much as a over-produced part of a song…and however many years later, he is still desperate for the limelight thinking he is some sort of authority on Music itself. It reminds of Puff Daddy: two of the most over-rated “artists” of all time.

Hey, I have a great idea: Let’s take a number one song and put crappy vocals over top of it…and then see if it is still a number one song! In this crappy climate, I could fart over the chords from “Every Breath You Take” and it would be a number one jam.

I could care less if these two have ever collaborated – Maybe they have already?? What a gift from the rap gods, if so!

I can’t imagine there is a studio big enough for these two inflated egos….

If they do ever get together/(together again??), I hope they read this and consider this “group” name:

The Lucky Idiots.

I am not the biggest rap fan to ever live, but I recognize REAL talent – Give me Public Enemy over these two ANY DAY!

Fight the Power!

What a twat. | 9/14/2009, 1:59 pm EST

that was taylor swift’s first vma ever at seventeen.
beyonce has hundreds of them and knows that she’s good, so it’s not as important to her.

that was appalling of kanye to do that, swift said afterwards “I was really excited, because I had just won the award. And then I was really excited because Kanye West was onstage. And then I wasn’t so excited anymore after that.”

poor girl! it must have been humiliating to be on that stage on her own with the crowd jeering (even if they were booing kanye), she was very strong to hold back crying for as long as she did. although, i think she may have just been in shock.
i wasnt sure if i liked beyonce before this, but she showed real class (i cant think of a more original word to describe it- ‘class’ sums her up perfectly) and if kanye was trying to flatter her then he didnt- he just embarassed her.

obviously having money doesnt mean you know how to behave in public.

This has nothing to do with race. He’s a disgusting human being who only cares about himself. He didn’t do this for Beyonce’s benefit. Did you see how embarassed she was??!!??

this was very rude, especially for a kid who won her first award. more than rude it was humiliating for taylor swift. yet, what i can’t keep my head off is how he got on the stage without any security intervening before and during this tantrum. i think this was an act of protecting his friends as for beyonce is jay-z’s wife and jay-z is kanye’s friend. still, this is something that shouldn’t be happened. i don’t buy his apology.

Brian the White warrior | 9/14/2009, 2:03 pm EST

Let this be a lesson to those fatherless fat white girls that get mixed up with these mandingos…

senseful | 9/14/2009, 2:03 pm EST

Dear Kanye told the truth;

You my friend are truly a COMPLETE FUCKING IDIOT. You want to keep something real? Kanye is nothing more than a talentless drunk in desperate need of AA. What a prick.
I’m not a country fan by any means, in fact I’m a major metal head. But Taylor Swift is a beatifull, young up coming major star, that now has a tainted memory of what should have been one of the best times of her life, that she’ll never have again, her fist award for her hard work.
Someone needs to put Kanye (waist of life)West, in his place. Which by the way is under my feet.

Julie | 9/14/2009, 2:05 pm EST

i’m not really sure whether racism had anything to do with it but if it did it’s sad that this is what our world is coming to

i think kanye has some serious issues and i’m definitely supporting that boycott against him!

kudos to beyonce for what she did!

Not a fan of either | 9/14/2009, 2:08 pm EST

What he did to that sweet girl was repulsive. Any publicity is good publicity though and if it weren’t for this stunt, I would not have enjoyed Taylor’s video with T-Pain on her homepage. This stunt also allowed me to watch the wonderful speech by Madonna and the performance by Janet. Boycot Kanye!

Taynel2 | 9/14/2009, 2:09 pm EST

I wish P!nk would have won. She would have kicked his a$$! It took Taylor Swift a 19 year old to show Kanye West true maturity and civility.

Chump | 9/14/2009, 2:10 pm EST

To Sheena,
Everything you said don’t make any sense, your using double negative which creates a postive. Kanye is an idiotic douche bag who hates white ppl, and im guessing your the same way. Beyonce video was not all that good, its blk and white and she does is prancing aroung like a slut. and she’s been out there for years. Taylor just started her career like 2 years ago. theres no comparison. Beyonce use sex to sell, Taylor doesnt. big diference. Get your sh*t straight before throwing a hissy fit.

Twins Separated @ Birth | 9/14/2009, 2:11 pm EST

Do you think Kayne West and Rep Joe Wilson are twins separated at birth? Just shows that bad behavior and stupid outbursts, is not a RACE issue. It is a stupidity issue. People, think before opening your mouth!

As an artist and a role model Kanye behavior sent a prevailing bully message. -Mississippi- Kanye education has nothing to do with his behavior.

UNC-Wilmington | 9/14/2009, 2:13 pm EST

This reminds me of when Kanye came to perform at my school and refused because the lighting wasn’t right….Total dirtbag that keeps building the stereotype.

He’s just following on the heels of Senator “You lie” Wison. Rudeness and disrespect are becoming the norm on TV.

Who cares if you like Taylor swift or not. I don’t like Beyonce’s music, but she wouldn’t deserve to be treated like that either.

Liz | 9/14/2009, 2:16 pm EST

Ok, I personaly do not listen to Taylor Swift, I do however listen to Kanye West, I just do not understand what was going through his head, did he think that if he had not skoped his mind than things would be diff, and Beyonce would have won the award? fact of the matter is this:Don’t speek unless spoken too! Kanye, No one was speeking to you, please shut up

sky | 9/14/2009, 2:17 pm EST

soooo, did kanye hear anything Madonna said in her speech about Michael Jackson? At the end, she said “let’s honor Michael by respecting and loving each other..” Does kw know what either of those words means?

ynot199 | 9/14/2009, 2:17 pm EST

Totally disrespectful and Kayne should be banned from ALL award shows.

Is this racist – Absolutely not, I am from Chicago and know people that know him. He is an asshole to all races.

Is he talented – YES.. Just because he is an freakin idiot does not mean he is not talented. There are many who say his skills as a producer are genius like. Nonetheless, someone needs to take him out to the wood shed.

WAS A FAN... | 9/14/2009, 2:17 pm EST

first and foremost Fuck You kanye… looking real stupid up on that stage, Jayz gotta get you on check. actin a fool. and i think u tryna impress B. again Jayz and the whole ROC needa put on check

Lack of RESPECT | 9/14/2009, 2:19 pm EST

Kanye definitely needs some help. & don’t blame the damn hanney because probably half the rappers in there were sippin the same thing before the show. His actions were definitely based of of his racist beliefs and he should be banned from tv period.

mzmac | 9/14/2009, 2:19 pm EST

Real or stunt, it was totally unacceptable – and a piss poor example for the kids who look up to him…although he’s about-what- 5′2″?? So don’t use my “look up to” phrase literally. This has nothing to do with race. Anyone saying it does is as much of a TARD as Kanye is. I DID get a chuckle out of the mental image of him taking the microphone away from PINK – he would be in the hospital with surgeons trying to figure out how to remove a moon man from his cranium. But, alas, he’s too much of a sissy to pick on some one who could fight back …therfore, he chose a little girl. His mother must be sooooo proud. Poor woman.

Kanye Killa | 9/14/2009, 2:19 pm EST

Kanye has no class its obvious. Dont know if this was publicity stunt to gain attention but I know for sure I will never spend any of my money on any of his music and from now on if I hear him on the radio I will be changing the station. I vote ban him from all music awards because his music sucks anyways. Your a asshole Kanye who need to get his ass whooped. Whack ass rapper.

DunItAgain | 9/14/2009, 2:21 pm EST

This is what happens when under-talented jigs have too much money and become jealous. Fishsticks Kanye!

Joe Average | 9/14/2009, 2:22 pm EST

Kanye West and Serena Williams should hook up and have an ill tempered little child. Of course the Children’s Aid Society would inevitably remove the child from their custody which would allow Madonna the opportunity to adopt another trophy baby.

CB | 9/14/2009, 2:24 pm EST

It doesn’t matter what you think about Taylor Swift and her music. She won the award and she was entitled to her moment.

Swift has more than earned the respect of her peers. She sold more records last year than anyone else.

Kanye West had absolutely no business going up on stage and expressing his opinion. He acted like a vicious thug.

The worst thing about this absolutely disgusting episode is that West would never have pulled this stunt with anyone else.

A man would have beat his ass for sure. And the other nominated ladies probably would have slapped his face.

Or in the case of Lady Gaga, she would have strangled him with that bird’s nest she was wearing as a scarf.

For West to take advantage of a vulnerable teenage girl is about as ugly as it gets.

Beyonce clearly understood this. Credit her for giving up the spotlight to right this wrong.

WoW just WoW | 9/14/2009, 2:24 pm EST

Since everyone else has basically summed up what a scumbag Kanye West is, I’ll just say this…Congrats Ms. Swift. You are an extremely talented young lady and hopefully, this will just be one of many awards in your bright future. Kanye, go **** yourself.

COMPLETE CRY BABY | 9/14/2009, 2:24 pm EST

Whenever Kanye doesn’t get his way, he just has to voice his opinion, no matter what the circumstance.

what an incredible unclassy human being, really immature.

wow | 9/14/2009, 2:25 pm EST

i dont listen to taylor swift, but kanye is trash and so is his music

brandon | 9/14/2009, 2:25 pm EST

What a complete asshole. It doesnt even matter at all that hes black, it wouldnt matter if he was purple. This was very rude and unprofessional. Not to mention the fact that that was her first award speech, and that fucker ruined it and completly humiliated her in front of the entire country, live. It just proves what kind of man he is, the kind of man who cares about noone but himself, and apparently beyonce. Fuck Kanye West, im boycotting him, you should to.

Gator | 9/14/2009, 2:25 pm EST

Wow! Talk about a guy with classic “Little Mans Syndrome”. Kanye is a no-talent douche.

Kanye Erased | 9/14/2009, 2:26 pm EST

Kanye West is no longer on my iTunes and ipod. I’ll not miss it for a minute following this latest stunt. No excuse for his actions(not drugs, alcohol, big ego, racism – you name it). NOTE TO KANYE: If this really was a pre-arranged rant permitted by the VMA, they just took you down and you don’t have a clue. I hope you’re done regardless of what your handlers tell you about how to apologize. Apology not accepted. What an ignorant bigoted racist…hey, can’t blame a guy for speaking his mind.

THE TRUTH | 9/14/2009, 2:27 pm EST

I would like to ask Beyounce who she thought won the award. she would undoubtedly say that Taylor Swift did because a) those were the results and b) she has some class. Which is more than I can say for you.

Former Fan | 9/14/2009, 2:35 pm EST

Never buy another Mr. Kanye West song. Why support such retro backward thinking stupidity? Good news is, Taylor Siwft, young, talented, and obviously more well bred than Mr. West will emerge triumphant in the long term. Sorry Mr. West, but “Yes, We Can! enter a new age of kindness. PS: Face it, Beyonce needs new material. Who’s writing her songs?

Jill | 9/14/2009, 2:37 pm EST

His mother would be so sad to see how low he has fallen. There is no excuse for what he did.

They should ban him from further MTV events as he has shown he can not behave himself. Beyonce is sweetheart and responded with great class by letting Taylor come back out during HER time. Not only did Kanye ruin Taylor’s moment and humiliate her, but he did the same to his “friend” Beyonce.

You are worthless, completely worthless. You’re an arrogant asshole whose music I will never support or listen to again. Get some class and grow up loser.

Glen | 9/14/2009, 2:38 pm EST

Taylor Swift showed great class beside the mother of all assholes.

She should have just placed the award on the stage and walked out, or better yet brained the bastard with the trophy.

Kanye West and his ilk are why the entertainment / news industries are in so much financial / credibility trouble.

Idiot | 9/14/2009, 2:41 pm EST

He was OK, a bit silly before I liked a few tracks but what he did was STUPID!

Tired | 9/14/2009, 2:41 pm EST

Whatever you want to say about it, this crap from Kanye is getting so old. How many times is he going to do this? It was controversial and shocking when he first started it, but now it’s just old. Hey Kanye? Shut up about stuff that doesn’t even remotely concern you OR just post it on your blog like all the other whiners in the world. Oh, before I forget, you love fishsticks.

Joe Average | 9/14/2009, 2:41 pm EST

I’ve never met Kanye West but I am now seeking a restraining order against him in court. I’m afraid that if I meet him, I might kick his fucking head in.

Alex | 9/14/2009, 2:42 pm EST

That’s not an apology. Not even CLOSE. First of all, the VMAs were supposed to be a tribute to Michael Jackson, a man who clearly earned his titled as a music ‘legend’. Secondly, no one cares about your thoughts but you, Kanye. You demand respect but never give it, NOT EVEN TO A 19 YEAR OLD GIRL. Who the hell steals a microphone from a teenager? ‘Welcome to the real world’? Seriously? Go f-ck yourself. POP CULTURE IS MADE UP OF MORE THAN YOUR OWN OPINION, YOU CULTURELESS MORON. Your glimpse of the ‘real world’ will come when your 15 minutes of fame are over after your already mediocre music dies off. So go back to kissing up to your gold-digging fat ass girlfriend. You deserve to die old and alone. Cheers, Alex.

Anne | 9/14/2009, 2:42 pm EST

I know how we can avoid him from doing this again, let’s not buy anymore of his music! That would shut him up for good!

Fish dicks | 9/14/2009, 2:49 pm EST

is what Kanye likes. He is the most unclassy, self-absorbed, immature organism in show business today. I don’t understand how he still has a career.

haha | 9/14/2009, 2:52 pm EST

“quite speaking” you make us white people look horrible man but i agree with you statement if you put “quit speaking” instead

To be fair... | 9/14/2009, 2:53 pm EST

Racism is a strong word for what Kanye did. Whenever a black person does something to a white person, or vice versa we cry racism. I think that should be reserved for more serious acts. What Kanye did was blatantly rude. He obviously suffers with small man syndrome and has a God complex. I don’t think it’s fair to blame a race on one person’s behaviour. White people have just as many pigs amongst them. I am South African. I live amongst racism every day of my life and can honestly tell you that it’s more serious than jumping in on one’s speech. However, he should not get away with this lightly, and yes, for his tactless behaviour he should be punished.

kayla | 9/14/2009, 2:54 pm EST

what a jerk!
taylor is just as good as beyonce…
they are both really good but what kanye did was just uncalled for and rude…

Congrats Taylor Swift! | 9/14/2009, 2:56 pm EST

I just want to say that since she deserves it. Oh Kanye what is wrong with you, did you get picked on at the playground, do you want a band aid for your bo bo’s poor baby wants his bottle. HA HA what a selfish child he turned out to be America.We should put him in the corner by not giving him his bottle, that being money, that will show him.

Georgina London | 9/14/2009, 2:57 pm EST

I love taylor – my kinda music. Kanye is absolutely fantastic for the people who like r&b honestly beyonce and taylor did deserve to win i just think i was nice that someone younger got the chance. I think he should more publicly apologise and say sorry o both. You rock taylor and beyonce go girls :)

Go Kanye | 9/14/2009, 2:57 pm EST

Marc | 9/14/2009, 3:00 pm EST

First he interupted Justice and Simian at euro music awards and now Taylor Swift. I can’t help but to think would he had interputed the Wu tang clan or DMX during an acceptance speech for his own pretensious moment.

Very sorry ass human being

noxusrules | 9/14/2009, 3:01 pm EST

I thought that Kanye changed after the south park episode… I guess people like that never change. To bad that Taylor find it put the wrong way!

Say What? | 9/14/2009, 3:01 pm EST

Kanye needs to get bitched slapped real hard! So Rude and unprofessional. I am disgusted by his action.

TP | 9/14/2009, 3:02 pm EST

I have no problem with Kayne having an “opinion”….however, HOW he expressed himself is inexcusable. What a low class individual. I think he is a racist, and a narcissist and any other “ist” words that you can come up with! He knows no one will listen to his rants, so he forces us to hear him by popping up where he doesn’t belong! He should be banned from all live tv. I wouldn’t even steal his music!!! (now go punch a sleeping baby Kayne)

Hmmm | 9/14/2009, 3:03 pm EST

So still nobody pointing out that what Beyonce (a Black person as well) did was classy and one hell of a good move on her part? Its all about how bad them blacks are huh? Interesting.

Sam Iam | 9/14/2009, 3:03 pm EST

Taylor Swift should sue MTV for lack of security and letting that asshole in the venue

Kanye is A Dick | 9/14/2009, 3:05 pm EST

This has nothing to do with racism. Kanye West is just an arrogant douche bag who needs to keep his fucking mouth shut. I am in no way a Taylor Swift fan…I hate country but he is a dick and should have let her enjoy her moment. He should share the fucking spotlight for a change. And Beyonce was very classy allowing Taylor to come back out and finish her speech…. I repeat Kanye West is a Dick.

Kanye = FIRST CLASS LOSER | 9/14/2009, 3:05 pm EST

I have always thought Kanye was an arrogant douche but wow has he ever taken it to another level. Go F&$% yourself Kanye, you are a class-less piece of S%*@. If I so much as here your song on the radio I will change the station. You abuse your celeb status and don’t deserve to be in the spotlight at all. Ass hole

Enough | 9/14/2009, 3:06 pm EST

Kudos to Taylor for not knocking him in the head with her award…and Beyonce was wonderful in how she handled such a bad situation. Now for Kanye–your 15 min of fame is over–take a hint and just go away (suicide would be a great option–you’d get lots of attention for a little while). You suck–and now the whole world knows it.

Man | 9/14/2009, 3:08 pm EST

Kanye is just one big piece of s**t point blank. He swears he is “real” but there is nothing genuine about him. Kanye is just “real” stupid.

music lover | 9/14/2009, 3:09 pm EST

Kanye…..just because you do something and then apologize does not take away your responsibility in what you did. Because it seems that big bad guys like you keep doing the same things over and over again….you haven’t learned a thing from your past outbursts. Why do you think we care anyway??? NO MORE KANYE

Deedee | 9/14/2009, 3:10 pm EST

He should not have to resign from his recording contracts…….HE SHOULD BE FIRED. Everyone I have spoken to has already deleted his songs and think’s that is just spit on the sidewalk. HE should never be allowed into one of these events ever again. This was too much and no amount of 1/2 ass apology is gonna change anything. Great going to Beyonce. She is a class act for sure!!

Rob | 9/14/2009, 3:11 pm EST

Captain Arrogant Douchebag strikes again. What a fucking idiot…and people wonder why I never gave a shit about him in the first place.

Holly O | 9/14/2009, 3:11 pm EST

Kanye or anyone for that matter SHOULD be allowed to speak their mind and have an opinion.. however he consistantly thinks its ok to be completely un-classy and speak his mind at the most inappropriate times whether it hurts people or not. The question of who should have won is not the issue. I am a fan of Kanye’s music, but since he continues to act like a spoiled, angry and unclassy person who is suppose to be a role model, I think if he hurt his popularity he has noone to blame for himself!

Sam Iam | 9/14/2009, 3:13 pm EST

seriously like, ye beyonce should have won but the public voted taylor to win and she did, kanye west is just a hater, he shouldnt have done that, do you not realise how that can shatter her confidence like, and seriously beyonce was amazing to allow taylor to make her speech afterwards, that shows great respect, and respect is what both these girls deserve, not that kanye west DOUCHE!!!!!!!!!

dee o | 9/14/2009, 3:18 pm EST

What he did to Taylor Swift is absolutely inexcusable. I personally will never listen to any of his music, let alone buy anything of his after this. Who does he think he is? How arrogant.

kanyehater | 9/14/2009, 3:19 pm EST

Poor Kanye! Give him a break! Was his hair a tribute to crop circles the aliens left when they kidnapped and probed his stupid ass? Or was it the result of the obvious labotomy he underwent. Shut up, prick! Your tired antics are the result of an over-inflated ego. Be glad Taylor is so classy. She should have shoved her Moonman down your throat! Maybe that would shut you up!

Kanye is someone who never fails to disappoint me. He is very talented, but caught up in his own ego and self-promotion. This wasn’t about Beyonce or Taylor, this was about Kanye. I don’t think it would’ve mattered who won, really, I think he had in mind to throw a wrench in the award show to shine some sort of publicity spotlight on himself. He squanders his talent to do shit like this. It’s disappointing. His mother would be disappointed. As for Beyonce, she is fabulous and I was so touched by her statements about being 17 herself, and knowing how much her first VMA moment meant to her. Rock on, Beyonce, you are very classy. As for Taylor, I say write a song about it. Most of her songs are angsty little ditties about boys breaking her heart…now she has material about the immaturity of grown-ass men.

KWSucks | 9/14/2009, 3:25 pm EST

KW is just a total dick. He thinks he is the new King of Pop. The fact that he did this proves that he is an awful person in every way. If you buy his music and buy tickets to his shows then you are a fool.

Hard to see how someone so talented be such an idiot. Beyonce and Jay-Z show such class. You would think Kanye might actually learn something from the one who gave him his break instead of giving him such embarrassment.

I really did like your music Kanye however, I will not listen to that shit anymore. What you did was extremely selfish and disrespectful to Taylor. That was her moment and you stole it and you should be ashamed of yourself. I will turn off the radio if I hear your songs, I will never buy another one of your cds, and I will remove all of your songs off my ipod. Kinda funny how the crowd booed as you left the stage.

America sees your true colors.

You’re disgusting.
Kanye west, more like Kanye waste.

A waste of everyone’s damn time, especially Taylor’s.

Starchild | 9/14/2009, 3:32 pm EST

…a complete and total asshole. It’s very un-masculine of him to pick on a 19 year old girl like that. I never see him barge on his peers like that. If he did that to Lil Wayne or 50 or any of the other rappers maybe I’d respect him more.

Musicfan7887 | 9/14/2009, 3:35 pm EST

He has done stuff like this over and over again. In 2006 he jumped on stage saying that he should have won an award. He is also always late for concerts. My friend saw him and he was an hour and a half late for his own concert then went on stage and played for 30 min then took off. He did the same thing at Bonnaroo when he was 3 hours late. And now this, I hope his “Fans” learned of how much of an ass he is. Stop Buying KW stuff.

ATLien | 9/14/2009, 3:35 pm EST

First of all who gives a da*$& about the VMA’s. I agree Kanye was very rude, and his opinion truth or not should not have happen at that time. I agree with Kanye about the matter, but he could have spoke his mind at a different time. Everybody is still on Kanye about that BUSH statement, which was and still is True, and I support that one, but he should not have taken the spotlight from Taylor.

Anon | 9/14/2009, 3:35 pm EST

I am so sick of Kanye…poor Taylor. He acted like a crazed asshole at Bonnaroo in 2007 too. Catchy music, but I got no respect for that piece of shit.

Miles Davis was talented, Jimmy Smith was talented, Zepplin and Floyd were talented, Stevie Wonder is talented….

Compared to these people, Kanye is a HACK, and it goes to show how ignorant people are.

Kanyes top songs were SAMPLED. He didnt write any music, he just rapped over someone elses music.

Kanye is not talented. 100 years from now, people will know who The Beatles are, people will know who The 4 Tops are, people will know who Nina Simone is… Kanye will be a fart in the wind, much like most of the processed cheese that is released today.

Marilyn | 9/14/2009, 3:42 pm EST

I have never seen a blog page so unanimous! Everyone is right..Kanye is soooooo wrong. I hope he does some serious soul searching – there is absolutely no excuse for his (arrogant) behavior. He should be ashamed of himself.

Mel | 9/14/2009, 3:42 pm EST

Kanye,

You are a no class bastard. How could you steal one of the most special moments of a young girls life?

You suck,

A former fan who deleted all your music from their Ipod and computer.. and will never ever listen to your music again, you disrespectful poor excuse for a human being.

nothing new to me | 9/14/2009, 3:42 pm EST

where have you people been kanye west has always been arrogant from the start of career, he thinks its all about him, i have never bought his album or downloaded his songs, he’s a jerk

Tim K | 9/14/2009, 3:42 pm EST

I just deleted all of my Kanye songs and trashed all of his albums. I will not ever support that hack in any way shape or form. I’m also boycotting Jay Leno’s premier tonight because Kanye is appearing. Why would anyone ever do something like that. It’s so pathetic. Leave it to such a big mouth to once again abuse his celebrity.

shorty red | 9/14/2009, 3:44 pm EST

MTV aint BET so KAYNE shouldnt act so getto. TAYLOR deserved that award

the bean machine | 9/14/2009, 3:44 pm EST

holy comments

Melinda | 9/14/2009, 3:45 pm EST

I like Kayne but his rude act should not be allowed. Kayne West
made himself feel no human beings.
He should disapear from such an honorable stage by himself.

the bean machine | 9/14/2009, 3:46 pm EST

holy comments …. and i cant believe that douche would take that moment from taylor, she deserved it, and probably dreamed about it for a long time.

immortal | 9/14/2009, 3:47 pm EST

Beyonce= CLASS

Kanye you punk, why don’t you grow up? Its NOT all abouyt you, fool.

Big Deal! | 9/14/2009, 3:48 pm EST

Man. yall need to chill he was just saying his thoughts he didnt say that taylor sucked he was just sayin that beyonce’s video was better..which i agree was far as hell better. im glad theyres someone like kanye who can speak their mind. so what he did it right in front of taylor….its the fucking music business!!!

Me | 9/14/2009, 3:48 pm EST

I will NEVER spend another penny on his so called music…I hope you rot.

Not only will I never purchase anything that Kanye is associated with – if I ever here his stuff played on TV, Radio – I will make sure that I switch to another channel

Moi | 9/14/2009, 3:53 pm EST

I should have thrown a bottle at Kanye’s face at Bonnaroo and not at his screen.

tiny | 9/14/2009, 3:56 pm EST

everyone should know how kayne west reacts when things dont go his way.. im not races but if someone white did that to him or another black artist this would of got out of control if u know what i mean.. mtv should boycott his music

Dre | 9/14/2009, 3:59 pm EST

Kanye is 31 going on 2 he is such a little girly man. Also can someone tell me why the heck Wale is on stage and on B.E.T. all the time while Asher Roth gets no shine. Man Hip hop still has alot of growing up to do.

Ronnie | 9/14/2009, 4:00 pm EST

This is not racist. It is about srtists/celebrities thinking their success entitles them to tasteless classless behavior. Kanye would do well to take some lessons from Beyonce. And Yesa she deserved to win but so did everyone nominated. Haven’t you heard, you can’t always win.

taylor swift u rock | 9/14/2009, 4:01 pm EST

u deserve that award

CoCo | 9/14/2009, 4:01 pm EST

Kanye west obviously has short man syndrome. Taylor swift, weighs, what? 100 pounds. He does these things to make him look larger. :o )
He’s just an idiot. Who in their right mind does that?

Erin | 9/14/2009, 4:01 pm EST

Fuck a hater and im not tlkn bout kanye im talkin bout all dese people that have nothing else to do but sit here abd judge other peoples lives like your life is any more perfect and you never messed up man fuck all yall

Skyce | 9/14/2009, 4:02 pm EST

What a no class move. Disrespectful. He should be banned from the VMA’s in the future.

Oldey | 9/14/2009, 4:02 pm EST

Im not a fan of Taylor Swifts music personally. That being said those of you who claim she has no talent are ignorant. She had a publishing deal @ the age of 14. Oh, you are probly to ignorant to know what that is, let me explain:

In the music industry, a music publisher (or publishing company) is responsible for ensuring the songwriters and composers receive payment when their compositions are used commercially. Through an agreement called a publishing contract, a songwriter or composer “assigns” the copyright of their composition to a publishing company. In return, the company licenses compositions, helps monitor where compositions are used, collects royalties and distributes them to the composers. They also secure commissions for music and promote existing compositions to recording artists, film and television.

In other words she had enough talent ACTUALLY COMPOSING HER OWN MUSIC(unlike kanye)to receive said contract that young. She writes or co-writed most of the songs she records unlike many artists out there so STFU. I am not a fan of her, but i wont deny her having talent.

Karen | 9/14/2009, 4:02 pm EST

PDiddy had a video thanking Kanye for bringing back his love of hip hop- just to “keep it real”–I implore you PDiddy- “keep it reaL” and post another video Blog-to Kanye to thank him for showing that it’s okay to dis someone on national tv just because you have a different opinion??? Hell no!
This isn’t the first time in the history of awards shows that someone disagreed with the outcome of winners!! Seriously- have you ever watched an awards show before?? Seriously- Kanye according to these blogs- your a man without a country!
And according to your lame so called apology – hell no!

Beyonce is a class act | 9/14/2009, 4:03 pm EST

Kanye West is a human Shit stain

Beyonce is a very good person. The fact that she didnt just rebuke west but actually gave her spotlight to Taylor shows what a good person she is. Taylor and Beyonce are what is good about humanity
Kanye is part of the cesspool of humanity

hmm | 9/14/2009, 4:05 pm EST

i dont know if im more annoyed of kanye or what the stupid things people post on here…wow.

True Life: I'm a D-bag | 9/14/2009, 4:06 pm EST

MTV’s next show should be ‘True Life: I’m a Douchebag” and completely feature Kanye West. He is a pompus ass. Jay-Z should cut him from Rocafella to remove the tarnish he put on the label. He put J’s wife in an awkward spot and ruined Taylor’s moment, she can’t win her first VMA again but I’m sure it isn’t her last. That apology was crap and was written by a drunk arrogant fool. I wish kanye no future success and Taylor all the success in the world.

Raven | 9/14/2009, 4:07 pm EST

Kanye who? After an ignorant stunt like that, I would venture to say that he will not be selling very much music. He will only be remembered for the bumbling baboon that he is, a talentless looser who should lay off the booze, and pull his head out of his… “Kanye West should hook up with Serena Williams. A fine pair!!!”

pattibmay | 9/14/2009, 4:08 pm EST

Who keeps letting this jerk off into awards ceremonies or any other public platform?? What a disgrace to the music industry and why are they supporting such an a-hole…???
Cut him off.

No Class | 9/14/2009, 4:09 pm EST

I do not mind Kanye West that much but that was one of the biggest scumbag moves ive ever seen. I wish someone like The Rock was presenting that award so he could have knocked Kanyes teeth out.

anonimos | 9/14/2009, 4:09 pm EST

i think people shud calm down, i thot it was funny. plus this is a business, everybody has to do everything thats gonna make them stand out. btw, by paying so much attention to this we are givin kanye what he wants, publicity

Karen | 9/14/2009, 4:10 pm EST

Just to clarify- I meant that this isn’t the first time that someone had a difference of opinion for an award show winner— but they didn’t do it on national tv- and they didn’t steal the award from their arms- Taylor should have took the mic and handed Kanye the award and without a word- walked off!!
And the guy in the band who said” you cna’t fault someone for voiceing his opinion??? Hell no to you to–this wasn’t your stage either- it was the winners stage- get your own!!!

sean | 9/14/2009, 4:11 pm EST

kanye is an asshole. his apology was ridiculous!! it was one big contradiction “i’m really sorry but i’m just being real”, get an education you ass!!!

Brian | 9/14/2009, 4:11 pm EST

Robert Randolph said it best, “Kayne sucks!”

Craig W | 9/14/2009, 4:12 pm EST

So now Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump has revealed himself to be a first-class moron and hater by defending Kanye West and blaming the whole thing on alcohol.

Hey Patrick – you owe Taylor Swift an apology, dude. Kanye West’s actions were appalling and inexcusable. If you defend this idiot, we’ll just have to boycott Fall Out Boy as well.

Oh, wait…your last record bombed. Big-time. Looks like we’re already boycotting you. Idiot.

Ian | 9/14/2009, 4:15 pm EST

I wish Pink would have won. She would have kicked his sorry ass off the stage….

u go pink | 9/14/2009, 4:16 pm EST

ther celebrities have lashed out against West on Twitter, including Pink, who had to be escorted away from the rapper by security.

She tweeted: ‘Kanye West is the biggest piece of s*** on earth. Quote me.

‘My heart goes out to Taylor Swift. She is a sweet and talented girl and deserved her moment.

‘She should know we all love her. Beyonce is a classy lady. I feel for her, too. It’s not her fault at all, and her and Taylor did their thing. And douche bag got kicked out.
Beautifully said. This is what anyone who isnt a turd is feeling. To bad security dindt let Pink kick is ass;p

Karen | 9/14/2009, 4:18 pm EST

Hey-anonimos:
You think people should just “calm down? maybe somebody should have to that to Kanye…..
Seriously- he is getting attention- but not the kind he thought he was gonna get– this is just the calm before the storm- he’s gonna be tossed out in the cold for this-= this is who he has decided he is- and everyone has just pretended it was okay — Well not anymore- his similar remarks and outburst of his past are catching up with him and people are deciding- ain’t gonna happen no more-
Heey Kanye- bbbbye bbbye!

Lynn | 9/14/2009, 4:18 pm EST

Why do some people say he was just offering his “opinion”. He has a right to his opinion but not by taking the mic out of her hand during HER acceptance speech to make his opinion known. Who gives a poo what his opinion on anything is anyway? There is no way you can defend such a blatantly disrespectful act. People who condone this type of behavior are just dumb down pigs themselves. I’m a bigger fan of Beyonce’s than I am of Swift or West but I agree she didn’t look very horrified to me either. She was laughing. If this was staged then everyone involved is an asshole.

Raven | 9/14/2009, 4:19 pm EST

BOYCOTT HIS MUSIC. That’ll teach him to mind his manners, and get rid of him at the same time. Send him back to his cave, where he belongs.

Nate Olivas | 9/14/2009, 4:19 pm EST

So he thought beyonce shudve won get the fuck over it just cuz she shook her ass durin her whole video doesn make it better at least taylor swifts video had a point and storyline but anyway point is that was a bitch move and very disrespectful and he is now and forever a big headed arrogant punk ass bitch made prick in my eyes!! Fuck that dude! fuckin peice of shit

suiiiik | 9/14/2009, 4:23 pm EST

What Kayne West did to Taylor Swift is unprofessional.
Acted gainst professional spirits.
He did not learn something
from his parent(s)I think.

Kevin | 9/14/2009, 4:27 pm EST

I like Kanye West as an artist, but what he did last night was just absolutely wrong and disgraceful to his fans. He should have let Taylor have her moment and shine, instead of being a fucking asshole and going up onstage, during her acceptance speech, and rudely taking the mike from her. Taylor, you rock! As to Kanye, I am extremely disappointed in your actions.

Mike Strattan | 9/14/2009, 4:27 pm EST

Mr. West, you’ll never have the class that Ms. Taylor showed while you were so rude to her. It’s about time you learn your manners. I wish you good health, but I hope your career sinks fast. As for Ms. Taylor, I wish you the best health and success! You are a class act

Kayne=Right,Taylor=Retard | 9/14/2009, 4:28 pm EST

Kayne spoke his mind- if he didnt then who will?
Taylor needs to get tough or go back to singing about dogs and pickup trucks. Stop crying and get real. IF you can handle it then stick with the nickelodean awards.
stupid country singers- kayne was right- beyonce is better. the end

John | 9/14/2009, 4:29 pm EST

Kayne, it is time to spend some money on alcohol rehab and brain implants

Karen | 9/14/2009, 4:29 pm EST

I am just so glad that there are so many people posting there comments about why they are disgusted by Kanye’s behavior – I think he should man up and read everyone of them- maybe then he could come up with a sincere apology– doubt it…

Respect | 9/14/2009, 4:29 pm EST

What a down right rude thing to do! If that was done to Kanye he would have flipped his lid! He’s so arrogant, it’s unattractive! I’m never buying his music any longer!

GAY FISH!

BOYCOTT!!!!!!

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 4:33 pm EST

To all the people defending Kanye –
Yeah, he has the right to speak his mind, but it was EXTREMELY inappropriate to storm the stage. There are other outlets and ways he can speak his mind, but to take a moment away from someone else is completely and utterly out of line.

Karen | 9/14/2009, 4:34 pm EST

hey anonimos-you thought what Kanye did was funny??? I can’t won’t even fatham what your idea of comedy is???☻

No-name | 9/14/2009, 4:35 pm EST

I agree, with most of the comments posted above. But, if you will remember you ignorant people that cannot understand the “in the moment of the scene” of these commments posted about Kanye is that it was indeed disrespectful. His apology was only to appease fans and to keep his rating. Yes, he’s a man that speaks his mind, but one with no class and disregard to his friend’s. He left them to clean up HIS mess.

Both has their talent in their own area, of course he’s a pop fan of Beyonce, but it still doesn’t give him any right to just voice his opinions. That’s not the way it works.

Each artist has their talent, but he shouldn’t be talking if he couldn’t write his own lyrics. Talking big because of his fame. He needs to remember where he came from and how far and long it took him to get there. Taking everything he has for granted. Now maybe you guys do think this is judgmental and biased, but its partially or all the way true.

Everyone has made their mistakes, but his was disgustingly made. Anyone sticking up for him are dumb and ignorant. There is a time and place to do things. His was outrageously stupid. I wouldn’t accept his apology because I know he didn’t mean it.

jessie | 9/14/2009, 4:35 pm EST

wow even thought beyonce is the best but she always win the awards and so if someone else won you shouldn’t do that to them.

and damn kanye i thought you were my hero and stuff but now you are nothing to me

Idiot Patrol | 9/14/2009, 4:35 pm EST

Hey Dude…..A therapist can help with the anger issues……It is not always about you or who you think should win……………hopefully music buyers will stop buying your shit and put your ass in the poor house!

jj | 9/14/2009, 4:36 pm EST

I can’t believe the few musicians (all male) who have excused his behavior as “Well, anything goes on MTV/rock and roll.” Talk about being out of touch. Rock and roll is about heart and soul – Kanye’s boorish, racist behavior showed he totally lacks both.

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 4:36 pm EST

Honestly I’m glad he did it, because it’s opened people’s eyes so they can see what a cocky piece of shit, racist fucking arrogant punk Kanye is. I’ve never liked him, his flow sucks, any catchy song he’s rapped over was sampled and he DIDN’T WRITE IT! He’s not talented, anyone who thinks he is is stupid and has bad taste.

K | 9/14/2009, 4:37 pm EST

Goes to show- drugs and Kanye = don’t mix!!

Shu | 9/14/2009, 4:38 pm EST

Man, that was a real rude, he had no fucken rights or what so ever to talk about “real pop”, he ain’t any better most of his songs suck…. He had no rights in taking away her moment or to say beyonce deserved the award. It just shows that people who think their big can do anything. Poor girl must have hurt her….

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 4:41 pm EST

Kanye no more! | 9/14/2009, 4:42 pm EST

I don’t think he could sincerely apologize if his career depended on it– oh yeah- he just lost his fans (ie: career) nevermind…☺

John | 9/14/2009, 4:43 pm EST

OK, so maybe it is time to put Bruno’s ass in Kayne’s face

Mel | 9/14/2009, 4:43 pm EST

After watching how disrespectful Kanye was last night I will never listen to his music. He is a joke! All that were nominated deserved to win…that is why they were nominated. He should be banned from all music awards. He talks about being real, but being real doesn’t mean being disrespectful. Taylor not only has a beautiful voice, but she writes her own songs. She is an inspiration to all young girls out there and is a great role model. Kanye is a role model for what not to be like. Today I deleted all of his songs from my ipod and changed the radio when ever one of his songs came on. I really did like Kanye’s music, but as a human being he was just wrong on so many levels that it will be hard for me to listen to his music the same way. I hope he realizes that his actions were wrong. I know he apologized, but how many times can you apologize for being ignorant to others. He has done this before and I am sure he will do it again.

Love love love Taylor Swift and you keep doing your thing! She has made me love country music even more with her pop twist on it. Don’t let this situation keep you down because she is on the right track to future success.

Kanye instead of paying millions for your video spent that money to somebody to teach you how act like a man. Next time if you are in a chopper you should jump off from it so that people like you don’t exist.

Planned??? | 9/14/2009, 4:54 pm EST

Dear mr bogus:
If this was planned- someone forgot to tell Taylor…
Who plans to ruin an award winning moment for a beautiful young and classy person such as Miss Taylor Swift?
I disagree that it was a plot for ratings or attention- it was just another “reality-moment” for Mr. West!♂

west | 9/14/2009, 4:56 pm EST

Didn’t everybody already know Kanye was an asshole?? I did!! Who cares about the Taylor Swift thing they both suck! And more importantly why are there still any VMA awards when there is no MTV????

Mark | 9/14/2009, 4:57 pm EST

I’m sure Kanye’s mother wouldn’t be very proud of his actions last night. When she died, the entertainment community rallied to his side. Too bad he had such a lack of judgement last night. Put down the booze and get a hold of yourself, Mr. West.

kayne is not cool. | 9/14/2009, 4:57 pm EST

ME = Not listening to kanye west anymore after i say that i was just shocked i think that kanye is a disrespectful prick.

Pennywise | 9/14/2009, 4:58 pm EST

Evidently, Kanye’s mom wasn’t done raising him when she passed. He acts like a 12 year old…On second thought, my twelve year old has more class!

Canada | 9/14/2009, 4:58 pm EST

I didn’t watch the awards last night but saw a clip of what happened. Seriously, Kanye you have no class and are a pompous ass. How’s that for keepin’ it real?! Jerk! Never liked you and never will. I hope your fans dump your sorry ass. You are truly an idiot. Nice “fake” apology too. I bet you would have said nothing if there was no back lash. Keep your mouth shut and show respect for other artists. No one cares about your opinion.

Alex | 9/14/2009, 5:00 pm EST

I stopped listening to this guys music ever since I realized how arrogant he was (wasn’t too long into his career). His apology is insincere. You can’t help but notice how egocentric his apology is. Why does he think he is the authority on declaring who is the best. Remember the Kayne West VMA backstage meltdown? Again, he proclaims he is the best and should have received the award. Arrogance.

“My greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live.” Kanye.

This statement sums it all up. Kayne, would your mother be proud of you? If so, the apple didn’t fall too far from the tree.

I don’t know why people still listen to him. Move on, we shouldn’t support such morons.

yobb | 9/14/2009, 5:01 pm EST

Kanye is one of those idiots who thinks ‘being real’ is an excuse to be an a-hole. It isn’t the same thing gangsta.

“Just let the man speak his mind. Of course he could have gotten his message across in another way but hell its true…Beyonce did have one of the best videos this year. And Taylor who?? Ya’ll seen how shocked she was when she won because she knew she didn’t deserve it. Oh and for all of you who are making comments about his mother….HOW DARE YOU?? Loosing a mother is one of the hardest thing a person will have to go through, no matter what age you are. It is fine to have your opinions but please do not include someones dead mother in something she has nothing to do with. That is all.”

Next time you buy a Kanye West album, or a t-shirt, or a concert ticket, or download his videos.. remember who and what you’re supporting. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I can’t enjoy listening to anyone’s music knowing that they’ve ruined a HUGE milestone in this young girl’s life.

Shame on you, buddy, you’ve really screwed yourself this time.

Layna | 9/14/2009, 5:06 pm EST

OMG! get over it…Kanye is the best and everyone knows it…Beyonce obviously the better singer and performer deserved it. I cant blame him for speaking his mind…Lay off Kanye its not that serious…just because he’s a little dramatic doesnt mean he’s not the same rapper and entertainer…He still and always will make good music, maybe not good judgements but seriously…get a life I dont think its that big of a deal…Drama Queens!

Still a Kanye Fan | 9/14/2009, 5:10 pm EST

Get over it people. Kanye will not lose any of his real fans anyway. His talent supercedes his ignorance and that says alot about Kanye’s talent. I thought it was a dumb move, true enough, but you all are making such a huge deal out of it. He never said that Taylor should not have won, he said that Beyonce had the best video of all time. I agree no one asked the drunk his opinion, but it doesn’t mean I won’t buy his next album if it’s hot ( and I am sure it will be). This has already turned into a race issue, which I knew would happen as soon as I seen this unfold last night :(

no fan of West | 9/14/2009, 5:12 pm EST

I have *never* seen any ‘person’ with less respect for others than this little pi$$ant. The fool should never be allowed back into a live awards show venue for his history of inconsiderate rantings and ravings. This is not the first time he jumped on stage and TOOK the microphone from awards winners. I do not like hip-hop, have little respect for the “artists” that can’t sing a note but are always yelling into the microphone. OK, granted, they have rythm, and they can rhyme, but they couldn’t sing a lyrical song. And every other work is cussing, most are demeaning to women (”ho’s”) and showing no respect to anything but the money.
Trash.
No respect. No amount of apologizing will make up for this, Kanye.
You are some low-life, scum of the earth butt-wipe.
Die, you son-of-a-biatch.

Taylor Rocks! | 9/14/2009, 5:12 pm EST

Kanye is such an asshole! This is her FIRST VMA award. It’d be a little less horrible if she wasn’t only 19 and she’s won a few VMA award. How would you like it if one of your favorite rappers decides to tell the whole nation that Beyonce’s video is so much better? He should have just blogged it, made a scene AFTER the show, or kept it to himself.

Dear Kanye,

Are you really a retarded, spoiled child? Or do you just play one on TV?

no fan of West | 9/14/2009, 5:13 pm EST

Lanya, you are a fool.

Erika | 9/14/2009, 5:13 pm EST

You’ve just lost another fan.

kanye is my favourite artist of all time i have all his albums an songs but what he did was wrong yes but i dont agree on all his so called “fans” you are a shame to music. i think what kanye should have done is waited until his bit of the VMA and then put his views out there instead of ruining her 15 minutes.Kanyes ego is what puts him on top of the game so don’t be dissin it its what made him famous in the first place !!!!

Jim | 9/14/2009, 5:14 pm EST

What a fucking chump. Nothing will excuse that kind of bullshit. Every year its the same thing, and he’s still allowed in the door. Ban his sorry ass. Thats a perfect punishment for a textbook narcissist asshole. No more VMA’s or any other awards shows, because he acts like a fucking douchebag at every one of them.

If he had done this to Pink, she would’ve punched him in his snot-box. And I’d have PAID to see that, lol!

christina | 9/14/2009, 5:16 pm EST

kanye west is the biggest douchebag ever and i will never listen to or buy his music again. he has a right to his own opinion but he was unprofessional about how he handled it–storming on stage and ruining Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech. In fact, the fans voted and they wanted Taylor Swift to win so thats too bad. plus Taylor outsold Beyonce in album sales so she deserved the moonman. Taylor, you rock don’t forget it- just look at all the tweets from fans and celebs supporting you. next time they should put more security so raving loons like Kanye can’t ruin the awardshow in less than one hour.

What a Dick! I wish she would have hit you upside your over inflated ego with her trophy – U SUK!

Kanye West | 9/14/2009, 5:17 pm EST

Kanye West does not care about white people….please wire my mouth back together so I can never speak again.

To SuperJunior

Let Kanye speak his mind? You’re a hypocrit. Why don’t you let me speak my mind without getting offended? Just goes to show you who supports Kayne…a bunch of idiots. Too dumb to realize you guys make this guy rich. I’m sure he doesn’t think that highly of you. You’re probably a peasant in his eyes.

jpepper103 | 9/14/2009, 5:21 pm EST

This guy is way out of control. What an idiot. Beyonce showed a tremendous amount of class – something that DumYe will never understand.

blondie | 9/14/2009, 5:23 pm EST

Kanye, I never liked you and you just gave me another reason not to. Thanks!!

TheKanyeCrusader | 9/14/2009, 5:26 pm EST

kanye west is an absolute legend and you guys need to get lives and shutt he fuck up. what he did was hilarious. i have never laughed so hard. fuck you guys. kanye was right!!!

Harley | 9/14/2009, 5:28 pm EST

Where does he get the Ego? He’s not an artist. Kanye is a manufactured copy of “Artists” before him. He doesn’t deserve to be on stage with Real artists. Yeah, wire his mouth shut and put a broom in his hand.

still a Kanye fan | 9/14/2009, 5:33 pm EST

Where was all of this outrage when the President was disrespected last week by a man who refused to apologize? Now that’s what you call an arrogant butthole. I’m not saying it’s right, because Kanye should have kept his a$$ in his seat. At least Beyonce let her have her moment and she finally got to speak. I think he had too much to drink and he should not have been allowed to get on stage in the first place.

Until recently a fan | 9/14/2009, 5:36 pm EST

His talent and arrogance have always gone hand-in-hand…until now. The arrogance now seems to be more of a God complex…

laura | 9/14/2009, 5:37 pm EST

I don’t know either singer, but I’m saddened to see that this young boy doesn’t have any tact. That’s what is going wrong with our country. Too many people are being raised without class.

TheKanyeCrusader | 9/14/2009, 5:38 pm EST

Kanye west is an absolute legend. what he did was hilarious and taylor swift did not deserve the award she got, so he was right and funny. beyonce everytime, shes actually talented.if people r sayin they r no longer fans, they clearly werent real fans anyway.’i love his big ego, hahaha, such a big ego’ – ego remix kanye and beyonce

Anonymous | 9/14/2009, 5:39 pm EST

It sends shudders down my spine to read some of these comments DEFENDING West’s boorish and immature behaviour last night. What are some of you thinking? HUH??!! You are out of your minds. Some of you are just as stupid, clueless and pathetic as the subject matter.

nisha | 9/14/2009, 5:40 pm EST

i think he was right for getting up there…. beyonce rocks and she is the greatest nobody likes taylor…….she sucks fuck her fellings……

you rock kanye

Kanye the loser | 9/14/2009, 5:41 pm EST

First of all lets keep it real people need to understand that kayne doesn’t care about Beyonce winning. That moron did this because no one was buying his records or his fake ass personality. Taylor is a class act and I guess that made his racist egotistical ass jealous. I think this was the last nail in his coffin. He lost a lot of his fan base by taking on someone who has more fans and admirers in one state then kayne has in the entire world. Let’s not forget about the very classy Beyonce for giving Taylor time to make her speech.

Erin | 9/14/2009, 5:42 pm EST

Taylor’s song is called You Belong With Me.. Not You Belong To Me

I preface this by saying I am a Kanye West fan. Great producer, adequate rapper who I must even admit has improved his rhyming skills, and has a good ear when it comes to music. All that said, I hope he comes out and says he has a substance abuse problem, because only someone either drunk as hell or high on some drug does something like that. That was classless and tasteless and the last person that needed that was Beyonce, who by her facial expression showed the same amount of shock and embarrassment any person would in her shoes. Kanye better concentrate on making good music, because once he starts falling off, all his antics will never be as tolerated and he will be forgotten so fast he won’t be able to deal with it.

DK | 9/14/2009, 5:46 pm EST

Hey Kanye, SHUT THE FUCK UP! You and your raging ego should get bitch-slapped by Pink. Now that’s something I’d pay to see!

poor Tswift!!! i mean im the same age as her and i couldnt imagine the embaressment that she had to go through. and to think i was going to go to his concert… (L) TAYLOR SWIFT

Haley | 9/14/2009, 5:48 pm EST

That apology was deffinately not sincere. Man up Kanye. Just because someone who you thought should have won didn’t, and because you were close enough to get on stage, does not give you the right to interrupt Taylor’s Best Female Artist speech. Unbelieveable.

knaye waste | 9/14/2009, 5:50 pm EST

Kanye, Maybe you could use this opportunity to…… Go back to college???

Chris | 9/14/2009, 5:50 pm EST

Taylor Swift appears to me to be a very talented, but timid, person who was taken advantage of by a bully who, for all his success, still needs to be the constant center of atte
