OMG WTF VMA?

Sep 14, 2009 01:23

I am SO not usually into this, and I don't really even like Taylor Swift, but I was in the lobby because of insomnia and the MTV video music awards came on and shit was happening so I watched.  And, wow.  DRAMA.

You'll probably be hearing about it, so here's the DL:

Earlier in the show, Swift won the Best Female Video award for "You Belong With Me" over B's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)." But during her acceptance speech, Kanye West crashed the stage, took the microphone from her and protested the win, saying Beyoncé deserved it.

Beyoncé told the audience about her first VMA win as a 17-year-old with Destiny's Child and how much it meant to her. The singer then called Swift from backstage to huge applause. [source]

video: Kayne steals Taylor's moment...

video: ...Beyonce gives it back.

Bottom line: Beyonce = class, Kayne = ass

ETA: After the awards, Kanye posted an apology to Taylor on his website, KanyeUniversecity.com. "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!"

Is it just me, or does an apology seems less sincere when in capslock and contradictions and !!!!s? *rolls eyes*
