Kanye West VMAs 2009: Ruins Taylor Swift Speech to Compliment Beyonce!

We’re not exactly sure what Kanye West is on but he totally ambushed Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech for her VMA win for Best Female video, stealing her microphone and insulting her win.

Taylor SwiftSo here’s what happened. The nominations for Best Female Video were announced. Taylor Swift was announced the winner and just after she thanked her fans for giving her the award and acknowledged that she never thought she could win, Kanye West grabbed the microphone out of her hand and said “Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time.”

Beyonce, looking embarrassed and confused (much like Taylor Swift) kept shaking her head and really had no idea what was going on.

Taylor, being the sweetheart that she is, stood politely and waited for Kanye to give the microphone back – only to be cut-off by a video that began playing on the big screen.

Needless to say, Taylor didn’t get to say her speech at all and Kanye West made a huge ass of himself. Once again Kanye showed the world his true colors and took a great moment away from a very deserving young lady.

Thanks again Kanye. Thanks for nothing.

On another note, Taylor Swift looked amazing and is one of the most respected and talented musicians of her generation. More than we can say for you, right Kanye?

Click here to see what happened next!

While I do think that Beyonce's video was a very memorable one, that was jus wrong.  I felt so bad for Taylor.  I have never seen her video, and I don't know that I've ever seen the full Beyonce video, but I've seen that Beyonce performance several times, and she had the help of Justin Timberlake and that Saturday Night Live skit to make her video even more popular.  There's always going to be someone that is disappointed that their favorite didn't win.  This guy is just an idiot.  How on earth did they let him get up on that stage.  Why didn't someone stop him?  Rude.  I'm glad Taylor was able to handle it the way she did and wish I would have known what she said that was cut off.  And I'm glad she was able to do her subway performance without being affected by what happened prior to that (assuming that her subway performance was live).  That was pretty cool how they did that.

What Kanye did was rude, no doubt. But to disparage his career is nothing short of daft.

i think taylor has the most irritating voice ive ever heard soooo GOOD FOR YOU KANYE. beyonce deserved the spotlight and almost missed out because of some dumb blonde with a pretty face.

That is so unbelievable rude! Whether you agree with the outcome of the awards or not, keep it to yourself; especially in the middle of her speech. I enjoy Kanye's, Beyonce's and Taylor's music and that's not what this is about. This is about Kanye being a inconsiderate, rude, and just an overall jerk.

Dear Kanye West,

This is a letter from Satan, I would like to thank you for your recent actions at the VMA's.  From now on please thank me instead of god because god hates you.  Me on the other hand, I really appreciate your efforts of humiliating cute little teenage girls on national television.  You will be burning along side me down here pretty soon, I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Best Regards,

Lucifer aka THE DEVIL

@ TJ There is absolutely no reason 2 insult Beyonce' and her videos...She brings it, everytime and thats just what it is!!! However Kanye is obviously havin an arrogant, mental meltdown! He is a jerk we all can see that. But to say that Beyonce's videos are all the same u seem to be just as big a hater as Kanye and you obviously don't know a thing about the time, effort and exuberance that it takes to create a video that Beyonce has put out throughout her musical career. I'm not a fan of Taylor Swift and I'm not familiar with her music but she absolutely did not deserve the treatment she got from Kanye.....................................

You all listen to kanyes music and love it. Although he did ruin taylor swifts moment at the vmas, she's a young artist and will receive many more awards in the future and with those awards, many long acceptance speeches. Calm down and go listen to some kanye, I'm sure he appologized. This dumb writer said "his true colors".... nice. =/

I don't understand why he would think that it was necessary for him to voice his opinion in such a rude, arrogant, public display!!! Taylor Swift just came on the scene, give her the moment she desrved and worked hard for!! Beyonce is extremely talented and we all know this but she has been famous for years!! I dnt think she would have minded not ... Read Morewinning once, to pave the way for someone younger!!! Kanye is an arrogant bastard, and he better hope his ways don't get the best of him!!! I mean come on his mom already died after he bashed take 6!! Hmm...-raises eyebrows...im jus saying...God don't like ugly!

hova your intelligence is laking homie.  The comment that you made is laughable at best. The real hova should teach Kanye a lesson because he is an embarassement to the entire music industry.  He has no place doing that to Taylor Swift or Beyonce for that matter.   It was an incredibly uneasy moment for both of them.  Kanye has showed his ass before, but now he has lost even more respect.

Big f*cking surpise a black guy ruining it for the white girl!!! Kayne grew up rich and sings about how he never had this and that. He needs to remember its the white race that makes him rich, not his race they cant afford his cds. ITs very clear he hates anyone not black.

I was embarrassed for Taylor and I was embarrassed for Beyonce'!! :(  Whether you agree or disagree with the decision on who should have won, NO ONE has the right to steal someone's "thunder"!!! Taylor is a sweetie and did not deserve to have her moment cut short! I LOVE both ladies!!!! And I was so pleased at the end when Beyonce' won for video of the year...and being the "classy" lady that she is, GAVE Taylor back her spotlight to finish her speech!!!!

I know how open and honest Kanye can be, BUT this was ridiculous and uncalled for and I really hope that he apologizes!!! I was very ashamed of him that night! How would he had liked if this was done to him??? People really need to THINK before they open their mouths and put their foot in it!!!!
