Ummm Kanye?!

Here's my two cents on what happened at the VMAs on MTV last night when Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift's acceptance speech.

1. Taylor Swift was the clear underdog in my opinion for the Best Female Video category which she did win. She was clearly surprised that she had won and it was becoming another fantastic VMA winning moment until Mr. West had to screw it up. Beyonce did an awesome thing later by giving her Video of the Year award winning time to Taylor so she can actually give her speech cause she knows how amazing it is to be young and win one of those awards. If there's not a lot of hope for most things in America right now, there's hope that people, even the rich and powerful, can do great things and be good examples for us all.

2. Kanye West just had to pull of the most annoying things to do on a music award show, interrupting the show during an acceptance speech which has happened two other notable times in the last 11 years. Most know that Kanye is an extremely sore loser at these things but to do this for an award he's not even close to being eligible for astounds me. His whole interruption was to just make a point that Beyonce should have won the Female Vid category. I thought it was just a tiny joke at first making fun of himself in a way. Now as much as I praise Beyonce for what she did, I don't think her video was all that great. It's black and white and she's dancing in an empty room with a dancer on either side of her as far as I know. My question is, Who let him on stage??? seriously. He wasn't about to perform, he's wasn't a nominee for any awards in the show's beginning, WTF? I'm glad he got kicked out of the show and didn't win any big awards anyway. I'm not satisfied with his half assed apology on Jay Leno's show tonight (which I didn't watch, I just saw the clip of it online minutes ago). Oiy get help man
