Kanye West has officially lost it! While at the 2009 MTV VMA's Kanye rudely interrupted Taylor Swift's acceptance speech for 'Best Female Video' by grabbing the mic from her and acknowledging Beyonce instead.

Beyonce was up against Taylor and lost, which clearly angered Kanye.

Kanye grabbed the mic from Taylor and said, "Yo Taylor, I'm really happy for you , I'm going to let you finish but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time...one of the best of all time!"

The audience then booed him until MTV cut to a clip. Unbelievable! You would think a 32-year-old man would know better than to insult a 19 year-old girl, but Kanye clearly doesn't.

According to MTV.com, once cameras cut away from the action, West flipped off the crowd and returned to his seat.

Wow I can't believe he did that. This really got me though, one of the comments.

Seriously?

It should be up on YouTube soon, but Beyonce won Best Video of the Year and turned the mic over to Taylor Swift. I thought both ladies handled it very well and with extreme class.

Where the hell did he pop out from?! I didn't even see him get on stage.

That totally was not cool.

I am NOT a Swift fan -at all- ... in fact, every time her songs come out on the radio I change the station...but he shouldn't have done that.

:rolleyes: :rolleyes::rolleyes:

:) @ Beyonce and Taylor Swift handling it well.

The look on her face was just shock and awe. Kanye is a total jerk for that. especially since he didnt win anything he was nominated for. Im glad Taylor got her moment.

Jay-Z/Bey 2012!

That was really classy. I'm not a fan of Country music, so not found of Taylor Swift, but that was an incredibly immature thing for him to do, especially with how happy she was.


ETA: My faith in the human race is starting to be restored. Except for that one racist girl, all the comments were against what had happened.

The remix is already up:

That's freaking brilliant. People work fast too.

Kanye is a rotten douchebag for doing that crap! The ladies handled it with class

What a dazzling urbanite.

Kanye is such an idiot. He embarassed both of those ladies (Beyonce looked one part flattered, three parts humiliated) and they both bounced back from it very well. Beyonce was extremely classy and generous to share her spotlight with Taylor and kudos to Taylor for not sinking to Kanye-bashing.

Beyonce actually looked quite mortified when they panned to her in the audience, as though she was thinking, "Shut up you idiot, you DO NOT SPEAK FOR ME".

This made me happy - it's nice to see that the repercussions were swift:
"Kanye's been banned from the stage and his scheduled performance has been cancelled."

He need to learn a lot about graciousness and humility.

my fears have been confirmed. Kanye's an idiot: http://music-mix.ew.com/2009/09/13/k...swift-apology/
