Kanye West Interrupts Taylor Swift at 2009 VMAs
Filed under: Kanye West, WTFThis year, Kanye West picked the beginning of the Video Music Awards to deliver one of his famous rants.
The rapper stormed the stage just after the first award, for Best Female Video, was presented to Taylor Swift. He cut the teen singer off, grabbing the mic and protesting in support of Beyoncé.
‘Ye’s rants are usually in support of his own work. He memorably took the stage at the American Music Awards in 2004, declaring he was robbed of the Best New Artist nod.
His protest against Swift, however, was not well received. West stood briefly on the stage after his comments as the crowd was silent. Audience members then began to clap in support of Swift after West left the stage.
According to reports from inside the house, once cameras cut away from the action, West flipped off the crowd and returned to his seat. During the next commercial break, Pink walked by the rapper and appeared to shake her head in disgust before security escorted her away. West remained steadfast amidst the commotion as he kissed his girlfriend Amber Rose.
What a classless prick!
didn’t choose the right moment, but can’t argue with the truth.
FUCK UUUUUUUUUU KANYE WEST TAYLOR IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!
I HATE U BEYONCE
whoa there bruno, I did not like kanye’s move, but no need to say that about beyonce man
Beyonce is all class.
Man, the worst thing is he did that to a 19 year old girl. To anyone it would be awful, but come on, man. She’s a kid.
Blake Shh nineteen isn’t young, I’m eighteen and I don’t consider myself a kid; she just plays the role to sell records as the high school quiet girl image.
[…] Kanye did what we all do in this day and age.. ..he went to his website and posted an apology for his outburst. a2a_linkname=”Kanye’s Apology to Taylor […]
Not only did he steal Taylor’s moment, but he also took away from Beyonce’s moment later in the show because she gave her time to Taylor. So in the end he did nothing but prove his total lack of class
Kanye West is a horse’s ass. I apopogize to any horse owners I may have just offended.
Um firsts off bruno that wasnt planned kanye is just a total loon. but Beyonce did Taylor right! She let her have her moment when she one best video of the year. watch the clips
I couldn’t pick out a Kanye West song if it hit me in the face. But hearing and reading his comments and outbursts over the years I am well aware of the ultimate douchebagness he displays. He’s such a tool. He can go burry his head in the sand for all I care. I wish I could say I’m shocked at the lack of respect but I’m not. Cuntbags like Kanye should be muzzled to keep their pie holes quiet.
Kayne West is the ugliest thing to happen in MTV VMA 2009, what a stupid move he has. What did he think, we’d buy his bland and worthless album just because he stole Taylor’s moment. FUCK YOU UGLY KANE WEST.
kanye is fuckin’ piece of garbage…. you are a loser!!!!! you better watch your back you never know what could happen to you one of this days….. we have something called karma dear shit….
he wa an ass
Yes, it was rude of Kanye , but he’s an incredible talent. Taylor Swift is kind of just a pop esque girl who can rhyme cheer captain with bleachers over a catch melody.
Missing the point here Timo; nobody care what talent this shitbag has vs. a teenage pop cutout. I know you guys are big fans of this cockup here on TOW, but West showed here that he has no class, and no amount of talent can make him less of an ass hat as a human being. Beyond that, posing a justification of an apology on his website sinks him even lower. Eat a dick Kanye; choke on it and die. The human race will be better off.
hahaha
i think south park said it best by calling Kanye a “gay fish”
classic episode if you haven’t seen it
I think the word asshole is too nice for him. He’s evil and a sad, sad person.
kanyes music may be good but who GIVES A FUCK ABOUT HIS OPINION. his problem is he thinks hes bigger than MTV someone needs to body check his ass and he needs some respect.
and then the funny thing is Beyonce made him look REALLY bad when she gave Taylor Swift her time..it made Kanyes statement irrelevant. Kanye West is just trying to get some hype for no reason…guys a fucking idiot
Poor girl. If she never wins another award again, her one moment will have been effed by that arrogant douchebag.
Y dnt all you jusT shut yur trap holes. kanye is a fuckin ass & a rasist ass bitch…he dnt know wat the fuck he was doing i heard he was drunk but then again y wuld he open his fuckin mouth if no one ever asked for his god damn opinion. beyonce is the sweetest thing out there & especially for letting taylor have her moment. Sure he can apologize but wat for wats done is done & ders no way he can take wat he did back.
I’m sorry, Kanye, but I just can’t take you seriously when your head looks like Van Gough’s “Starry Night.”
[…] Swift does her best on Saturday Night Live to get back at Kanye for his act at the VMAs. I say it was pretty funny actually, what are your thoughts? a2a_linkname=”Taylor Swift x […]
Just goes to show what happens when a child gains noteriaty. That inmature, vain lil punk is in need of a trip behind the woodshed to straighten that sorry attitude out. His Momma outa be the one to do it!
