Kanye West Interrupts Taylor Swift’s Acceptance Speech on 2009 MTV Video Music Awards

Kanye West rushes the stage while Taylor Swift was thanking people for her award for “Best Female Video”. He says “I’ll let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos ever.”

The audience started booing Kanye.

Boo! That has got to be one of the most disrespectful acts I have ever seen on live TV. What a disgrace Kanye. Boo! Boo! Boo!

Although: I bet Kanye West does the Single Ladies dance at home and couldn’t stand the idea that Beyonce lost.

Keep it up is all I have to say. America is quickly getting a picture of what is/has happened.

“According to our sources inside Radio City, Kanye was promptly tossed from the VMAs after interrupting Swift’s speech.”

There is a God...

Beyonce is a class act though she just won video of the year and invited Taylor Swift on stage to have her moment.

It was totally staged. I just tuned in and Beyonce won video of the year. She says she still remembers winning her first vma, calls taylor out to have her moment. Crowd goes wild. Here comes Taylor, in a different dress. She was in a long white gown before. Now she’s in a red dress that—shazamm, perfectly matches Beyonce’s red dress. STAGED.

Yeah, and coincidentally, Taylor had changed into a red dress to match Beyonces. What staged rubbish.

If you had been watching the complete show you would know that the red dress Taylor is wearing is the same one she had on when she performed earlier in the show.

Plus, the race card isn't working anymore. The more it is played the clearer it becomes.

Nobody's ever lost credibility in the MSM by playing it. You watch, Kanye just gained endorsements over this.

"Um, excuse me, except that Joe Wilson was right and it wasn't a "stunt.""

I agree it wasn't a stunt and actually if you read my post from that Monday, I actually called on a member to stand up and heckle him! What I was saying is that in West's little brain he saw this as an example of a media storm and decided he would jump up and interrupt so that the industry would be talking about him, just as the MSM was forced to discuss Wilson.

I don’t know a thing about Beyonce or Taylor Swift other than what I hear from my little niece.

The only thing I know about Kanye West is that he made a fool of himself a few years ago by saying that President Bush hates black people.

I watched this video. He embarrassed both Taylor Swift and Beyonce with his hateful, ill-mannered actions and comments. He ruined a special moment for that young girl, who appeared to be genuinely stunned and thrilled that she had won that award, and who was left shocked and speechless at his hatefulness.

Taylor and Beyonce will get over what happened and it will redound to their favor in the long run.

I’m beginning to think Kanye West may have neither the intelligence nor the heart to learn anything from his boorish behavior.

One other comment: Kanye West’s actions don’t have a thing to do with the color of his skin.
The color of his heart is his problem, and the fact that he is apparently a self-promoter who wants to make himself the center of attention at every opportunity.

Kanye belongs to a different "class" of people ... and I'm not talking about race. He's repugnant and hopefully has now outed himself in a way that all the music crowd can appreciate.

Oh, okay, I see. (I get misunderstood here ALL the time!)

The beauty of West’s stupid prank is that all the positive attention will go this precious, young, adorable mega-talent (give her time) Country artist, Taylor Swift.

I hate to say it, but since Obama won more black performers seem to think it is quite okay to act like this... Jamie Fox speaking out at the Country Western Music awards and the audience sat there in stunned silence because he was so inappropriate.....
