I saw a few minutes of the show, including the West incident.

My Comments:
When does MTV show Music videos?
Me: Who the hell is that guy (the host)? My Wife: He's (don't remember), he's a comedian...he was on Letterman and he was funny.......yeah he's not really funny right now.

(After Kanye West incident) ...."Staged"

Will someone explain what happened? Everyone keeps talking about what a douche Kanye West is on FB, on the radio this morning....

Someone said on FB that Beyonce kicked Kanye in the nuts?

Possibly staged to get more attention for MTV (a dying channel)

If not for people posting vids and stuff on FB, I'd have no idea either.

in short, Taylor Swift (who's what, like 17?) won an award. She was up there making her acceptance speech when Kanye jumps up there, snags the mic, and basically says Beyonce shoulda won. Taylor looked like someone kicked her puppy, and left the stage.

Later in the show, Beyonce won an award, and said something about when she was 17, winning an award was the most exciting thing on earth for her, and that Taylor deserved her moment, and she invited her back up on stage.

He got up and interupted taylor swifts acceptance speech and started talking about how beyonce had the best video of the year and implying that she should have won over swift.

Beyonce didnt literally kick him in the nuts, just figuratively when she called swift back on stage to give her acceptance speech in place of beyonces.

Here is Kanye's apology. What a douche!

“I’m sooooo sorry to Taylor Swift and her fans and her mom [Andrea]. I spoke to her mother right after and she said the same thing my mother would’ve said. She is very talented! I like the lyrics about being a cheerleader and she’s in the bleachers! …………………… I’m in the wrong for going on stage and taking away from her moment!…………….. Beyonce’s video was the best of this decade!!! I’m sorry to my fans if I let you guys down!!!!! I’m sorry to my friends at MTV. I will apologize to Taylor 2mrw. Welcome to the real world!!!! Everybody wanna booooo me but I’m a fan of real pop culture!!! No disrespect but we watchin’ the show at the cribe right now cause…. Well you know!!!! I’m still happy for Taylor!!!! Boooyaawww!!!! You are very talented!!!!! I gave my awards to Outkast when they deserved it over me… That’s what it is!!!! I’m not crazy yall, I’m just real. Sorry for that!!! I really feel bad for Taylor and I’m sincerely sorry!!! Much Respect!!!!!”

Ok so I had to take a look at both videos since MTV doesn't even play them anymore. Now if you like hot women dancing to average choreography, and a lighting guy turning the lights on and off, than I guess it is ok...but video of the decade...Kanye is smoking crack!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mVEGfH4s5g

And yes Taylors video is not the best I have seen but it is obvious more thought and production went into it...plus I was a band geek all through middle/high school and college. go figure.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AHzIq_n-DQ

And Beyonce really stepped up to make things right for Taylor. She kicks ass.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-Ig38qaUxE



Here is Taylor's video

It was a prick move but everyone acts like this is the first time something like this happens.

I have seen fighters in Boxing and MMA win a fight only to have the whole arena boo them.

Refs get it daily. And if they are in soccer they have a chance of getting their ass kicked by 10000+ fans.

He didn't agree with the the out come of that award and he spoke his mind. It was the wrong place and time but thats him.

I don't remember who started talking about race (I wasn't even going to comment in this thread at all) but it happens because people still see color. Yes the US President is Black but people don't change over night. I don't feel it had anything to do with color, he just thought someone else should have won.

The fact that she is 17 shouldn't matter at all. She is in show business and its a tough one. The press can be harder on people then Kanye will ever be.

What Beyonce did was cool.

Taylors video wasn't bad. I think the video was better then the song which I don't like at all. I think Beyonce's video was better myself.

That has to be the worst analogy I've ever read. Seriously, how the fuck are these two scenarios similar?:

1. An unpopular fighter wins a fight and is booed by most of crowd.
2. A singer is given an award. A nobody jumps up on the stage, steals the microphone from a 17 year old during her acceptance speech, and let's everyone know HE thinks someone else should have won, then turns his back and walks off stage.
