Taylor Swift talked exclusively to MTV News about Kanye West cutting short her acceptance speech for her Best Female Video prize at the 26th Annual MTV Video Music Awards held at the Radio City Music Hall in New York City on Sunday, September 13. "It has been a crazy night, hasn't it?" she said backstage after the awards ceremony, adding that she never imagined something bad would happen after the hip-hop performer made a sudden appearance on stage.
"Well, you know, I was up there and I was standing there and I saw Kanye up on the stage," explained the country music songstress. "I was really excited ... and I kind of wasn't excited anymore." Taylor stopped her comment there though and didn't make bad comment about Kanye despite the fact that he has ruined her moment at the prestigious ceremony.
Taylor Swift was giving her acceptance speech for her Best Female Video prize when Kanye West suddenly jumped to the stage and took away the microphone she was holding, telling audience "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!" Beyonce Knowles, Taylor, as well as the audience were all stunned by the incident.
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. Speaking of what Beyonce has done, Taylor told MTV News, "You know, they told me to be ready just in case she might want to say something. It was just so wonderful and so incredibly classy of her and just gracious and wonderful to let me say something. She's just been my hero and one of my idols ever since I was little. She's a great person."
As for Kanye, hours after his rant he took it to his blog to write an apologetic message dedicated to Taylor, her mother and fans. Part of his post read, "I'M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT! ................ 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."

Why would anyone care? Half of you probably didn't even know who Taylor Swift was until she released Love Story. Right? Kanye has been around for ages now and i totally agree with him, Taylor is nothing special at all. All of the other videos in that category were so much better than Taylors. I think i watched Taylors video 3 times before i got sick of seeing it because it was so boring. Now i like Taylor but all her songs sound the same, i mean i like country too but she should maybe try some songs that aren't about some lovey dovey boy thing sometime... Taylor love it gets kinda boring! Fair enough it's a common topic but nevermind. I don't think Kanye should have cut her short but he has got a really good point and i respect him for saying that.
i made a mistake about the m im sorry

CANT STAND THIS SLUT TAYLOR SWIFT FOR ALL THE HATERS IM IN YOUR CLUB!
I absolutely cant stand the slut she just gets on my freekin nerves i just cant stand her!
If you people took this seriously, you're as dumb as mop buckets. Can you imagine what would have happened to Swift's career if Kanye hadn't done that. she would have been eaten alive by the press. Her video sucked. He wasn't a horses ass he saved her ass. If anyone one is to blame it's country music for always wanting their artists to crossover into other genre's. If artists like Swift doesn't want to be country music, then she shouldn't have gotten into in the first place. I don't see an anchor tied to her ass, do you?
I for one can not stand Taylor Swift. She is just a little baby teeny bopper who has a low amount of talent. Every song sounds exactly the same. Content is always about "girl sees boy, girl loves boy, but boy is tired of baby girl." As for her range in voice, there is none. She revolves around 8 or 9 pitches. She seems to be unable to crescendo or decrescendo ( using voice louder and softer). I just don't know how or why anyone thinks she is so great. She gets a lot of gigs because she is so cheap to get. I'll give her one thing, she is pretty, but definitely not gorgeous and beautiful like so many other women country singers. Stop idolizing this babbling idiot! Down with Taylor Swift, the baby doll.
hey u r pretty somebod said that u were white trash and u was ulgy i got really mad luv yaa taylor talk to u later byee tel everybody that i said hey k talk to u later luv yaa

I love your music.you are really hot.I say that kayne west was so mean to you.You won you should be rally happy with it.
Kanye West wasnt even nominated for an award you dumbass(SaraKnowsBest)
What the heck is Kanye Wests problem hes just a drunken idiot who didnt even deserve to go there in the first place Taylor Swift deserved that award and Beyonce was nice enough to let Taylor get her moment. "I love T.S" :)
KANYE WEST should've won. Taylor swift is an ugly white-trash blonde frizz-ball wannabe. Kanye had been around forever.....and then taylor swift is new to the scene. this is MTV and not the CMA awards u dumbass (taylor swift). so she should've expected it.
West should have had his ass beat and taken to jail! Pure trash but we knew that!!
i find kanye was very disrespectful.
OMG, stop trippen all you'se, leave kanye alone ight, he did nothing but tell what he thought! & i agree with him BEYONCE KNOWLESS HAD ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS OF ALL TIME; actually, all her videos were the best, TAYLOR UGLY SWIFT had the most shittest videos of all time, okae. so stop trippen & get the fck over the fact that beyonces better than taylor swift, IGHT SO GO GET A GRIP ALL OF YOU SNOBB,
Kanya, You sure make it easy to be prejudice. Way too go IDIOT.
Beyonce and Taylor need a tile in walk of fame, if kanye does have one its gotta be taken out to the walk of shame, his name wont even last long from tne ppl that will step on it
i hope kanye goes to make a concert in Taylor's hometown, i can assure u, he'd be dead before he goes up the stage, shes a redneck isn't she, and boy...if u insult a red neck ur dead, its good her parents disciplined her the right way, kanye got bad karma and kudos from millions of ppl all over the world, the guys future is gone, over 3k vids of this shit on youtube each have over 10k views at least most had 4mills, kanye=history
do not insult kanye's race, if u insult him, u insult her, they r both from the same race, no one is perfect, kanye made his race go down but beyonce made it goup even more, class and no class...i bet this was staged for publicity even if it would have risked kanyes carreer, he was shit..now hes even lower than that, almost everyone del kanyes songs from ipods, playlists...etc..pos appologized so he wont lose his fans...which is what puts bread on his table...he doesnt care about her feelings...say sorry lol..u already ruined her moment forever
People do need to furget about this I mean Kanye apoligized already so we jst forget about and Renee Lady Gaga's Performence Rocked!
Kanye is a loser taylor is alot better look where sh is now and how old she is...she is very sucessful.
If I was Kanye I would say sorry too!! But he doesnt mean it he is just wanting to try to keep from losing his fans (MONEY)
Kanye u need some class; to bad ur mother is dead too teach u a lesson on how too show respect.
I was not that serious. He hurt her feelings, he interrupted her moment which was very wrong but he apologized,that's all anyone can ask when someone hurts someones feelings or says or does something wrong. I am sure Taylor has moved on, at next years VMAs they will be making a joke of it. People need to let this go, or we can find everyone in entertainment that has said or done something that hurts someone's feeling and keep it going. No, because that would be ridiculous. If we want to be offended by something it should be Lady Gaga's performance!!
Even the president called you a "jackass," Kanye. Kanye took away every bit of fun and feeling of gratitude from all taylor's hard work. The worst thing is that every time taylor swift wins an award, she will think about this event EVERY time she's on stage. Thanks asshole.
i knew that kanye west was overrated, i did not know that he was so dumb, arrogant, pretencious. What a spoiled little brat. Not only has he no talent whatsoever but he has not even the passion for music. he is a buisnessman who likes to do monkey buisness ... let's leave him wher he belongs ... in the gutter and please MTV stop inviting him, that's the second time that he does it, it's time to get him off the air, not tomorrrow, yesterday !
That white thing is a bad habbit.
COMMENT
Hmm
Kanye West is stupid black ass and for you Mery go fuck yourself
Money doesnt buy class or manners. Taylor Swift and Beyonce Knowles show class and Kanye West is just an ass. What a disgrace he is....
KANYE....THE MAN WHO THINKS HE'S UNTOUCHABLE IS VERY VERY EASY TO RECONCILE. YOU JUST MADE YOUR RACE LOOK LIKE SCH.T
Kanye was way out of line and to MERY, MTV did not let her win, America let her win and while im at it, I dont hear or see any rap stations playin Country music. The bottom line is Kayne was completely out of line, Beyonce was a Class Act as always.
KANYE! ... u are Fuck...g assole as always!
Pinche kanye hes just hating cause he didnt win SHIT...its all good taylor kanye west brings every person who has like successed in the music buisness down thats just how he is... cant handle that people are BETTER than him.....but Taylor Swift deserved that award:)
Kanye being Kanye is not ok anymore.....tired of the same old trash from him...it's people like him that make those of us in the African-American community look bad. Who cares if she is country, jazz or whatever....i don't care if she effin yodels, she won so deal with it...give her the damn mic and let her say her thanks...she works just as damn hard as you and all of those in the pop, rock and hip hop community so deal with it.
another thing..kanye...U disrespected Taylor And Beyonce..But U were to drunk and stupid to realize it...of all people..Beyonce was Shocked!!! and the look on her face said it all...and to put down a young girl that sings a diffrent genre...How dare U and Beyonce's face said the same thing...u need a hard lesson and maybe Jay Z and beyonce need to re evaulate working with U..UNPROFESSIONAL AS THEY COME...STRAIGHT STUCK ON STUPID..WHO WOULD WANT TO SURROUND THEMSELVES AS HARDWORKING AS THOSE TWO ARE TO HAVE U IN THERE CAMP..UR A THORN THAT WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS...CONTREVERSY ONLY GOES SO FAR>>>AND IF U THINK THIS WAS A PUBLICITY STUNT TO HYPE U AND BRING ATTENTION..U BROUGHT ALL THE WRONG KIND OF ATTENTION..IF I WERE JZ AND BEYONCE I'd DROP U LIKE TODAY..BUT ALSO TEACH U TOUGH LOVE AND GET U HELP AND STRAIGHTEN UR ASS OUT...THEY HAVE WORKED WAY TO HARD TO ASSOCIATE THEMSELVES WITH NEGATIVITY LIKE YoURSELF...ALL PROPS TO BEYONCE FOR RESPECTING THE VAULE OF MUSIC AND ARTISTS...
YA kanye you do w.e you want and embaress innocent cute singers...kanyes hillarious
There's the problem right there..."kanye just being Kanye..". So since he's being disrepectful and foolish AGAIN, we shouldn't hold himt o it. I'm working on an album right now so that I can get nominated and hopefully he's still in the buisness and he wins an award and I swear to you , i will walk up on the stage and say that he shouldn't win. To his face. I have to do it just so I can see his reaction. Oh and he's like 5'9 right? Another little man with an inferiority complex. It's our fault ya'll. We need to pay more attention to little guys or they will keep doing this type of stuff. Kanye, Eminem, T.I.. DMX. Damn, little guys don't know how to act!
I hope your career will be over Kanye...King of Pop...Yeah Right...Dont think so buddy. After this outburst you do not have enough class to be a King of anything.
OMJ THAT WAS RIDICULOUS!!! R U KIDDDING ME!!!!!!!! I"M SORRY BUT THAT WAS SOOOOO UNCALLED FOR!!!
My comment to Mery...I am not a fan of Taylor Swift's music, however, the type of country Taylor Swift sings is more pop/country. The nominees were Lady GaGa who sings pop/dance, Kelly Clarkson who sings pop, Pink who sings rock/pop and Boyonce hip hop/Pop and Taylor Swift who sings country/pop. What I am trying to say is that she deserved to be in that category. She won so accept it. A grown man made a stupid choice once again and made a child feel like that. It was heartbreaking to watch. I think he would be very pissed if he had a daughter and someone did that to her. All in the end Beyonce showed herself as the classy WOMAN that she is and did the right thing.

Kanye has lost his mind - and he does need to seek help - who in their "right" minds would do such a horrible and disrespectful thing. he thinks he is so big, so tough and high and mighty....my gosh if someone had done that to him?? i felt horrible to see the look on taylor's face, to take that special moment away from her...no need to apologize, its over and done with and you have already taken it away from her !!! i hope you lose all your fans, all of them !!! and to the comment above? what is the big deal? open your eyes and ears girl...exactly, kanye is just being kanye - which is an arrogant rude disrespectful human being !!! i hope your career is done !!!
He was so mad because wanted to win that category - he is a castrata and deserves the female category
I really dont think that kayne should have done this! And taylor didnt deserve this. Like all she did was won an award and he was being an ass to her!
Hey kanye what would your dead mother say?
Kanye is Racist to do this.I never heard a disaster.He is clearly a black racist.I don't like any kind of racism.When Whitney houston lost to Notting cole's daughter no body said anything.Kanye go to rehab for counselling honey.You must love people from other skin clours as well.Didn't they teach this when you went to your church.How could you be such heartless!
I think that Kanye West has to join the Mickey Mouse Club. He's just a child dont blame him.
This is maybe the sign that Taylor swift is not in that kind of category yet , best female video. I know Kanye was rude but please Lady gaga"s video clip way better than her video clip ,or even her voice, I think MTV let her win just to make all those country music fans, tune to MTV channel, don't they have country music channel already? they never play hip hop in that channel :-) so what is not big deal , Kanye just being Kanye, no big deal .......
honestly nobody with a single brain cell does that. 'its just kayne being kayne' yeah ok, if we keep saying that then he'll just keep on doing it. it needs to stop. who does he think he is to judge her? she is fabulous, and her career will go far because she wouldn't say something like that. what a jerk.
I'd like to see kanye step up to a man and run that trap I hate country music but aint denying taylors effort to live her dream. But it really don't matter kanye aint never going to grow up. He is worthless. Apology should not be expected cause it aint going to give taylor her moment back. I hope he has to go back to selling music out of the trunk of his car. Kharma is a BITC#
Your career is OVER KANYE!
Kanye made a mistake and said he was sorry! Beyonce is always a class act! I love how Taylor put it! She was happy and suddenly not happpy! Thats what it was - racisim is digging deep into a mistake that he made. If he is racist its his problemo! And he will meet his fate with it one day - if thats the case! Apology accepted - move on!
KANYE is a joke southpark made that pretty clear have you ever listened to his music his new stuff is just a bunch of random babbleings its junk trash and for him to disrespect taylor who was liveing her dream thats not rite the guy should give up him and his chip munk cheeks i heard there makeing an alvin and the chipmunks 2 starring kanye west
Taylor = CLASS Kanye = ASS Taylor = FLASH kanye = TRASH
