Obviously Kanye went from the good preacher rapper kid to a drug induced idiot.

Mom must be rolling in her grave.

Now this is an example of what people mean when they say that Kanye is a "genius". Guarantee that his, Taylor Swift and Beyonce's album sales all go up because of this. I wouldn't doubt if they rehearsed the whole thing. Kanye's an expert sheep herder.

Even black people in the audience were like "Kanye, what the fuck?"

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

right or wrong it was an asshole thing to do

Yet you come into a Kanye thread and post four times?

:disgust

im embarrassed for kanye and im not even black

It was completely staged. Taylor Swift was probably warned Kayne would do something, but kept in the dark to look somewhat real.


FRONT PAGE of cnn.com this morning. Huge thumbnail.

Seriously, it's all over the internet. Fucking MASSIVE marketing win right there.

Best comment on it was just on tv. Kanye is scheduled to be on Leno's new show tonight, and this dude said he hopes Taylor Swift rushes on stage and interrupts his ass right back. God I hope it happens.

Talk about CAREFULLY PLANNED so that people will tune in just to watch for Kayne.


Seriously, this is planned and executed perfectly. Kayne West is a genius and is one of the best known performers world wide due to these antics.

MTV told journalists the West-Swift incident was not planned -- a point it had to stress after a walkout by singer Eminem at last year's event turned out to be staged.

Hip-hop superstar West, who was pictured before the ceremony swigging a bottle of Cognac, was escorted from the building after the rant, the network said.

Soon after, an apology to Swift appeared on his blog:

"I'm sooooo sorry to Taylor Swift and her fans and her mom," the message said in all caps. "I spoke to her mother right after and she said the same thing my mother would've said. She is very talented! ... I'm in the wrong for going on stage and taking away from her moment!

wow, what a fucking retard.

I cant wait for the day until someone does something like that to him :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

beyonce got video of the year didn't she? makes a bit more sense

I like Kanye as an artist; not so much as a person for moments like this...

I wouldn't be surprised either if the whole thing was fake like the eminem/bruno thing a while back.

But for people feeling sorry for Taylor Swift, you have to get a little perspective here. She's 19, attractive, a millionaire, and will be able to pretty much write her own ticket for the rest of her life. TV, movies, whatever she wants. I think being embarrassed for 20 seconds on stage is not really that horrible of a thing for her to get over. Not to mention I'm sure she will pick up fans from this whole thing.

he's fucking rude but Beonce did the right thing by asking her to come out and finish her acceptance speach

That is just going to bring him down, now he is getting a lot of attention. I am sure he loves this!:disgust

This is what he considers one of the greatest videos ever? 3 hot chicks dancing is nice, but give me a break for video of the year, let alone of all time.

so the fuck what he's rude alot of people are

Ugh, hearing that it very well could be fake. MTV may say it's not fake, but Kanye being on Leno so soon after and now trying to add publicity to the whole shit with that statement...hmmm. If it IS fake, then he's a bigger dick. If Jay had class he'd find another guest regardless of whether the VMA stuff was fake just to show shit like that has consequences. But Jay is a ham of course and will take whatever publicity he can get for his new show.

100 big egos

Ummm....one of the hot chicks is a MAN...

Yikes! Maybe I belong in Thailand??? :error

if taylor swift had a big shelf, i would care.

:thumbsup

I feel bad for Taylor.:(

lol, quoted for truth.

Not likely it was fake..
Nobody accepting an award wants to be upstaged by an idiot... by design. He was drunk... and this isn't the first time he's done such.

The only thing that was kind of prepped was the producers telling Taylor to maybe expect something if Beyonce won after her.

Taylor nor Beyonce need help with their record sales, or their fan base.

i liked kanye better with his mouth wired shut

I swore one of them was a tranny, just felt I was porn jaded.
Doubt it was staged. Also seen the footage of him and a chick drinking out of brandy bottles (looked like) at the start of the show. If your drinking from a large bottle then yeah I am pretty sure something went wrong in the class department of him growing up.

im not gonna take the time to read all the posts in this thread but surely SOMEONE said Guess the race! lol

Beyonce's video sucked ass.

Neither are my kind of music but tell me what is so 'best' about a video with dancers dancing around? Seriously..not all that original.

What a vapid species we have become.
