I'm not sure if you saw the VMAs, but I watched for the first time in like three years and I have never been so shocked as I was by what Kanye did to Taylor Swift tonight. He truly fulfilled the typical rapper stereotype by being arrogant, rude, disrespectful, and out of line when he bombarded the stage and stole the mic from Taylor. I know he has said he is the "best rapper ever", but Taylor Swift has more overall talent, tact and grace in her pinkie than he does in his entire body. She's 19 and writers her own songs and plays guitar and piano. What does Kanye do? Rhyme words into an audio phone? wow. I used to tolerate is cockiness b/c I liked some of his songs, but that ended tonight. I give total props to Beyonce for having such class and allowing Taylor to come back onto the stage and give her acceptance speech when Beyonce won her award. I really wish I could have seen Kanye's face, but luckily he had been kicked out. He has released an "apology", but it was so half-ass he might well have not. I'm sure this incident will create quite the raucous for 3 days, and I too will get over, but I wanted to voice my disgust.
If you didn't see what happened here are the clips and a link to his "apology"
