Kanye / Taylor Swift 2009 VMA's

[silence7]

Seriously, don't they learn, Kanye eithier shouldn't be invited to awards shows, or he should be handcuffed to his f-ing chair with duct tape over his mouth.

And she was praising him earlier; talk about getting spit in the face.

[wesleysnaps]

I got into an argument with some friends because they weren't clear on what they were talking about and I was saying Graduation was pretty good and then I watched it on you tube and yes Kanye is a dick. I don't even like T. Shift, but there was no need for what he did.

[funk63]

I don't get why anyone would be suprised at this.

[BBboy20]

Beyonce won Video of the Year yet allowed Swift to have her moment.

[ms.peachy]

Didn't see the show (thanks, China) but I read about this this morning. What a d-bag KW is. It was very classy of Beyonce to turn the attention back over to the other girl (of whom I've never heard and can't be arsed to find out about, but hey she won and it was her moment that was stolen).

[Audio.]

Kanye is like a big fart in the room.

[roosta]

if anyone needed confirmation the lad is a complete twat, that was it.

[Kid Presentable]

Fuck he could have at least dressed up like his uncle or some shit.

hahaha!

[Micodin]

For someone that idolizes Jay-Z so much, you'd think some of Jay's self control would rub off.

I've always taken Kanye's bullshit with a grain of salt chalking it up to cockiness. But, last night he just looked like a asshole. Even if Swift didn't deserve the award... lose with some class.

[jabumbo]

did she actually say anything after he gave the mic back? that video cut off and she just was sort of standing there speechless. although, i don't know what you could really say after something like that....

[TAL]

She was about to start talking again, but they took her off stage because she was gonna perform 9 minutes later in the subway.

They cut to the first part of a crap Tracy Morgan/Eminem sketch, which they had to restart because they suddenly cut to Taylor Swift being taken off stage.

Kanye got booed every time his name was mentioned. 5 times in all. Good times. Best one was when Diddy looked confused at the booing after he mentioned Kanye. Then the audience started chanting "Taylor, Taylor, Taylor..." and Diddy started laughing.

+1

[Echewta]

That booing in the SNL video certainly doesn't sound real.

Hopefully Taylor grows up soon and learns how to handle a situation like that.

[paul jones]

all pop stars are mentally ill. everyone should know that

[Fern]

who gives a shit, 2 millionaires fighting over nonsense. the old saying goes; you can take to ______ out of _________ . . . . . . .

[Brother McDuff]

i wish kanye slipped and smashed his teeth in while running up on stage. im so sick of that chach-bag.(n)(n)(n)(n)(n).

[skinnybutphat]

The real loser is in any of this is anyone who watches anything on MTV.

[Randetica]

if i was him i would sit as still as possible now that his last album was nothing but horrible trash


kanye west will be my new words for attention whores

[PENisland]

I still think this is a bit on the Satanic side... (http://shine.yahoo.com/event/the-thread/lady-gaga-wardrobe-craziness-at-vma-512130#photoViewer=4)

[Freebasser]

^ That's one convincing drag queen!

[hpdrifter]

Eminem does not look amused.

[camo]

He looks like fucking pee wee herman!

[BBboy20]

THe Camera man ruined Swift's moment when he/she showed Lady Gaga not once but twice in...Seriously, WTF.

[nodanaonlyzuul]

I didn't see it but from what I keep reading (without wanting to, until now) everywhere, yes, it's lame. But I don't really concern myself so much with it. Kanye is a dick, Taylor Swift isn't actually good, but in the end who cares?

[Brother McDuff]

The real loser is in any of this is anyone who watches anything on MTV.


agreed. my buddy's girlfriend switched over to MTV for 2 minutes in middle of the bears game and it just so happened to be that pathetic moment. immediately reminded me why i stopped watching mtv like 10 years ago.

[TAL]

Kanye was on Jay Leno's new show (new time slot, same crap) yesterday trying to look apologetic.

[b i o n i c]

the kanye west story is not going to have a happy ending

[Micodin]

the kanye west story is not going to have a happy ending

Are you predicting something grim ala Kurt Cobain style?

[Nuzzolese]

I'll never download another Kanye West ringtone as long as I live.

[hpdrifter]

I thought it was pretty wack for Jay to be all what do you think your mom would think? Jeez, not cool. Why even bother with that? I thought he would be above stooping to crap like that.

So Kanye, do you think your dead mom would be disappointed in you? You know, because she's probably up in heaven crying hot tears of shame over your behavior. And she's dead and you can't turn to her in this tough time. Because she's dead. And you've disappointed her.

Complete dick move.

[nodanaonlyzuul]

Complete dick move.

yes. THAT is far more fucked up. If I were Kanye I would have punched him in the face.

[TAL]

I'm pretty sure they had gone over the questions with Kanye before the show.

[MC Moot]

Something tells me that question was far from impromptu...it smacked of pre-arrangement to me...Kanye needs a major sabbatical,i don't think he's a well person at all...

*gotta say,though,they knocked "run this town" outta the park though*...(y)

[cookiepuss]

If I were Taylor's publicist I'd be sending Kanye flowers right about now. Not only did he make himself look like a dick but his little stunt got Taylor 10 times more publicity than her win would have got without any drama. ;)

[PENisland]

After watching the re-run of the VMA's, this almost looks set up.

If you look behind Taylor Swift while shes giving her speech there is no sign of Kanye on either sides, just a bunch of fans, and then they switch camera angles and Kanye pops out like Jesus Christ The Second, and this camera switch is only a matter of like what, 2-3 seconds?

Does anybody remember this? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrRo4cMX2Fo)

Not a single one of them is funny. Not one.

You could pretty much add the joke to anything you want, therefore rendering it completely humourless.

[Kid Presentable]

I actually think it was MTV's ham-fisted attempt at acknowledging or 'sending up' the whole Nathaniel Hornblower/Spike Jonze/Sabotage thing from 94, what with Sabotage winning that night, and it was simply poorly executed by a shiftless production team of Gen Ys that are a drain on society.

Regardless, I'm listening to lots of Kanye at the moment.

i hate him but some of his older stuff is good which makes me hate him just more

[Kid Presentable]

School Spirit fothermuckeeeeeeeeeeeeeer

[g-mile7]

Enjoy his music, but his antics are becoming a wee bit contrived now when your raining on a lil 19 year old's parade...regardless of if she's famous or not. Dumbest move by a male artist to a female artist since Chris Brown (n)

[Nuzzolese]

I'm with you. I bet he wanted people to be reminded that his mother died so that they wouldn't still be mad at him. It's a classic maneuver to get out of trouble; remind people of your sufferings as if that excuses you. Then anger turns to pity.

*facepalms*
my posts in the genius thread are suddenly worth fuck-all.

[roosta]

you know what though?

The Beyonce video is much better..

[Randetica]

didnt he ram the awards before? he thought it was unfair that he got no award or something like that

[hpdrifter]

Three times before.

Alright, I am not a Taylor Swift fan and I love Beyonce (yeah, I downloaded If I Were A Boy) but that video is far from groundbreaking. All of the recent videos (Single Ladies, Diva, Ego, Sweet Dream) have been the same, her dancing with two other chicks in unitards in front of a white screen.
