AceShowbiz - One apology is not enough for Kanye West to show Taylor Swift how sorry he is for interrupting her award acceptance speech at the 26th Annual MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, September 13. Writing a new apology on his blog dated Monday, September 14, the hip-hop performer revealed, "I feel like Ben Stiller in 'Meet the Parents' when he messed up everything and Robert De Niro asked him to leave... That was Taylor's moment and I had no right in any way to take it from her. I am truly sorry."
The post is much shorter than Kanye West's previous message which he posted shortly after he cut short Taylor's acceptance speech for her Best Female Video prize during this year's MTV Video Music Awards held at the Radio City Music Hall in New York City. The country music singer was speaking to the audience when he 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!"
Both Beyonce Knowles and Taylor were stunned by Kanye's rant. 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 to reporters after the star-studded ceremony wrapped up, Taylor said she had no ill-will toward Kanye, reasoning "I don't want to start anything because I had a great night tonight."
