Earning criticism for interrupting Taylor Swift's acceptance speech at 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, Kanye West wasted no time to issue an apology to the young country music singer. Not only he dedicated the apologetic statements, which he posted on his blog few hours after the incident took place, to Taylor, but also to her mother and fans.
"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," Kanye began his post. "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," the hip-hop artist continued. "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!!!!!," Kanye ended his post.
Kanye West managed to set tongue wagging when he suddenly jumped to the stage at the 26th Annual MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, September 13 when Taylor Swift was giving her acceptance speech for her Best Female Video prize. She was delivering her speech when he took away the microphone she was holding and telling audience that Beyonce Knowles should have won the prize for the music video of her track "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)".
"Yo Taylor. I'm really happy for you. I'm gonna let you finish but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time!" he shouted. Both Taylor and Beyonce were shocked at Kanye's action.
However, later that day when she was announced as Video of the Year winner for her "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" music video, Beyonce invited Taylor to once again come to the stage and finish her speech which was previously cut short by Kanye.

Fair enough he shouldn't have got on stage but i completely agree with him. Taylor is nothing seriously she can't even sing. I have seen her live & i must say i wanted a refund she didn't hit one note, not even when she was standing still. Pathetic effort
Guide for the functionally illiterate: dat = that. u = you. cuz = because. ur = your. 2 = too or as well. Leaving random vowels out of words = scientists are still unsure but theories have been proposed that some people just want to make themselves look that much dumber. ALL CAPS = either the person wants to yell or is retarded and does not even know that they have the ability to turn caps off. all lower case including words like "i" = just plain lazy.
Single ladies best video of all time? WTF? Yeah, it seems like everyone on the planet knows the dance, but seriously, that video is just as cookie cutter as all the rest of her videos. She just has 3 ladies dancing with absolutely no backdrop. How is that even remotely original? And Kanye..... that no talent ass clown. He can't even play an instrument. His comment obviously spurs from his general distaste for country music and absolute immersion in rap and hip=hop based culture. I can understand someone not liking country music, but going on stage and f**king up an important moment in the life of an extremely popular country music star? I'm sorry, but it doesn't really matter if she is good or not. He just alienated half of his fan base. Dumb ass celebrity tools just don't know that there is such a thing as "too far".
who told him 2 jump up lyk a fool??he should hv not done tat...he embrassed himself,taylor nd beyonce.could'nd he jst contrl his emotions?? :(
Kanye your a dumbass!!!!
I cant stand this guy. Check out his blog. what a DAMN IDIOT, uneducated dumbass stupid F&^% GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BLAH BLAH BLAH! What a jackass! I wouldn't except his apology. I hope he nevers win another award (if he has won at all) because of his freakin attitude. Now I know why I don't like him!
dat waz freking dsirespectful wat waz ur freaking problem even if u don like taylor let her finish don take da mic from her when she was talking u want to be an honest guy but u don have to be a jerk didn u get teach some manners a lil boy would have known better. is dat da only way u know how to get attention or wat? don give ur bs appologies cuz noboby believes jerk
Kanye is nothing more but an arrogant idiot who thinks he's a one of a kind artist. Wel he needs a definite wake up call because people like him are a dime a dozen!!! He may have his opinion and nobody is condeming him for ventilating it, BUT he chose his time and the place VERY VERY wrong!! The poor girl is very young and just taking her steps in the business, beyonce has a closet full of moonmen for best female video. And looky looky she won one of the most important categories of the night. I taught she was very graceful in letting taylor have her moment. Kanye definitely didn't take his mothers upbringing right. I mean no matter how mad u are at something stay elegant dude. I think he needs to get of his ass and start thinking about what all these hissy fitts are doing to his career because the fans will only understand so much and not more
Wow that stunt was crazy. I am a fan of Kanye's and still am but damn that shit was so rude and just bad, she won her first award give the girl a break lol. Also I would be pissed if some random dude ruined my big moment too so yeah. Although he did apologize I mean life isn't perfect and people make mistakes it's human to make mistakes but damn I felt so bad for her. Instead of this poor and innocent girl Kanye should have done that to Pink or someone else that sucks and are jerks now that would have been funny stuff.
I won't be following Kanye anymore. I won't buy anything associated with him. He's just a big baby that has to have his own way. That's bs.
I don't believe he really cares enough to apologize. It's just good for business. I think it's too little, too late. I won't be a patron of Kanye ever again.
Too late to aplologize ! MTV gave you one too many chance ... it's time to get youself together or to get off the air ... i also don't understand how can Jay-Z / Def Jam support such an artist ... Def Jam has always brought up the best out of their artists and they gave us positive attitude music ... now with a kanye west on the market, the market loses his credibility, Jay-Z too, Def Jam too, MTV too and all those who praise or endorse such innapropriate behaviors. Kanye = Get off the air !
I love Kanye West but no that Kanye doing foolish things. c´mon! go to the studio and keep doing hits but shut up and stop with your stupid attitude!
Kanye, you're proof that God does make junk. Take a long walk off a short, short pier.
Kanye, make no mistake. What you did was rude. It's stupid to be rude. So you are both rude and stupid. How does that feel to live like like a rude, stupid, mean and narcissistic man. You are clearly an empty suit. Ick.
The apology means nothing... you loud mouth , self-centered, ill mannered, punk! You walked onstage when you were not welcome. Where you didn't belong. No matter WHO you think should have won the award, Kany-ick's immature act was rude, juvenile and way out of line. Who does that monkey think he is?
Have the recent crap-outbursts at the town hall meetings led to a total decline in Americans' manners? What has happened to civility?
Nobody cares what kanye thinks.....real talk
Kanye, you are a disgrace to all hip hop artist and to your dead mom.
read ur own apology...ur a statement of contridiction...U still insult Taylor Swift after all ur apologies and such...like it was a mistake and still said what u said on stage..."BEYONCE VIDEO WAS THE BEST VIDEO OF ALL TIME" I never heard or seen the music/video...of Taylor Swift but to rob her of her Moment of Appreciation of fans...ur a disgrace...I'm sure Beyonce felt the same way...What does JZ think about ur comment? seems like u had another agenda maybe for Beyonce??? or ur ignorant self...why did u do this?DRUNK?

It seems like Kanye is reverse discriminate if you ask me. I am so sick of having to listen to his outrageous arrogance, that he should not have in the first place! He has to have the absolute worst personality of any performer in the world. He defiantly needs to learn some F-ing manners!!!! WTF Kanya??????
he did wat he had to do!
That was just f@ckin disgusting what that @sshole did!! Filthy b@stard!!
FUCK ALL YOU BITCHES THATS DISSING KANYE HE A BLACK MAN THATS KEEP IT REAL WITH U MOTHERFUCKERS. DNT HATE HIM HATE YO DAMN SELF, BECAUSE HE SPEAKING HIS DAMN MIND.
i think it was rude of kanye 2 mess up her speech i think he should have said something when they announced the winner. but he was just speaking his damn mind, something alot of black people DO NOT DO, because of fear to white people. LIKE KANYE WEST SAID, IM JUST REAL. AND IN MY WORD HAAAHAAA.

GET OVER IT LOOSERS
AG ALL U PLEASE JUST SHUT THE F UP....TAKING THE MORAL HIGH GROUND ..ITS FINISH DONE AND GET OVER IT...LOOSERS
well im not planning on buying your music anytime soon...hater!
well im sure he didnt even post that apology. bet his agent did it for him to look better. you lost my purchase of your records nukka!
You acted like a huge queef!
charmztulucky what r you, an moronic idiot?you can't even speak proper.you are obviously a racist. no one has a right to do whar kanye did, not for any reason at all.
Any one of those videos deserved to win. Fact is, Taylor won. This is just another, in a long line, of Kanye trying to get attention. These days it's the only way he can get it. Pretty pathetic isn't it.
kanye i feel sorry for you!! i'm done listening to your music!! respect is something you will neva eva learn.
The apology seemed kind of phony and more like damage control. His opinion was his opinion and certainly not so much better or so important to give him the right to ruin her night. Beyonce is super classy and was likely the most embarrassed as he supported her, but did so in shame and dishonor. Kanye embarrassed himself in the 2006 VMA’s in a similar fashion. Imagine if you thought you were always right, superior, and had diarrhea of the mouth and a blatant disregard for what anyone else has to say. Hard to imagine for some, rationalized by others, this is where “The Golden Rule” should come in.
@ Charmz TuLucky: I was stunned by a LOT of you're comments in your posts (a lot of which were just really stupid) but one thing you said was SO ignorant, I have to let it out: You're a real idiot if you really think that Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift BUY their own cd's. How the hell would that even work, they wouldn't make any profit! And they don't actually 'pay off' the paparazzi because guess what? They don't have to! Because Taylor Swift doesn't pull stupid crap like, for instance, that egomaniacal monster Kanye West. You should think before you type.
I don"t agree for what Kanye did, but what can I say, common Taylor swift over Lady gaga? Over Beyonce? give me a break MTV
The truth hurts. Its hard also to tell it these days, because we all want to be liked and be politically correct. Sometime you have to step up to the mic and shout out the truth. Dont tell me work hard and then award some one else for a song only people in Memphis knows. Please where is the hard working people award? Beyonce took that video all over the world. Preseidents were doing, even my 1.5yr old baby does it. This what we did with George Bush and anybody have a comment on that one too? I guess not.
He's a racist...Showing no respect...Don't think he knows well about music culture...should join the underground gangster instead of being a pop star...
Well said Miliani! I like Kanye's music but the disrespect is BS! How arrogant can you be to jump on stage and begin sharing your ignorant feelings. He definitely has some mental issues. I'm done with you Kanye. I don't even know any of Taylors songs. That's not the point. He was completely disrespectful to another person, famous or not. Done, done, done with you Kanye. Get into therapy soon!!!!!!!
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
That's bull sht kanye. Ur bull shit I like beyonce 2 but that was a taylor moment she didn't deserve this
Fuck Kanye.
Too late Kanye. That was B.S. and you had absolutely no right. You need some anger management classes. You refuse to learn. This is part of your nasty personality and people are getting sick of it. I for one am done buying your music, concert tickets or listening to you. It's too bad 'cause you have talent, but I refuse to support this kind of crap. Somebody commented on another site 'Kanye, you wrote Jesus Walks, walk like you know Jesus'. I couldn't have said it any better.
Kanye West is a trashy piece of shit. He thinks he knows what music is, and that his is the best, but one fact remains...the best rapper of all time died years ago, and that was Notoriuos BIG. Kanye is a wanna be cry baby, and he is the most prejudice person I know. So suck it Kanye!!
I really thought it was disrespectful for him to do that to taylor and he is just trying to get attention he was completely out of line... but he is not a racist sooo please guys stop with all of that bulllish but he was completly wrong
Kany-ick's immature and totally self-centered appearance was nothing short of juvenile and embarrasing. His mother is hanging her head in shame today. What a loud mouth monkey's arse.
