Someone would've posted it eventually. Kanye busted onstage tonight at the VMAs after Beyonce lost Best Female Video to Taylor Swift. I don't care for either of their music, but Taylor Swift looked genuinely shocked and excited to win only to be on the brink of tears when Kanye stole the microphone to say Beyonce should have won.

it's like a bad comedy shtick at this point. he's just dumb. like awards shows like the VMAs matter. MTV awards shows are made to promote the movies and artists that fall under the controlling companies umbrellas. ridiculous

No I don't think this was staged at all. Taylor Swift look actually hurt by this. She's something like 18 and looked genuinely happy to have gotten the award. I've defended Kanye before and actually do like his music, but this is douchery at it's finest.
I really don't know how it is with Kanye. Is he an out and out douchebag child/man that can't control himself or is he a cynical manipulator of the media. Oh well, his music sucks and I probably wouldn't have ever heard of him if it weren't for all bullshit.

He's an idiot. He had that ego when he was a producer as well from what I've read. I can't stand him. Someday, someone will take him down. It won't be soon enough , imo

I actually really like his music, but he has the biggest ego on the planet. I mean, fine you don't like that Taylor Swift won, do not interrupt the 19 year old girl during her acceptance speech, say something later. Then was not the time. He needs to stop this "voice of a generation" crap.
He seems to only do this at Video Awards Shows. I remember him doing something similar in Europe. I hate Taylor Swift, even more than Kanye if that's posible, but i always hoped back in 2005 when he was at the peak of being a critics "darling"that he would get into a riff with someone more talented like Jack White or Thom Yorke and get destroyed. Why doesnt he pick on someone his own size

Kanye does this and it's very smart. It keeps him in the headlines. Nobody is discussing who won what awards at the shows........people are all talking about Kanye rushing the stage. That keeps him the center of attention.
he's a douchhe but he's finding a way to stay in the spotlight. I wish he would stop though
His handlers rewrote his blog entry for him, of course comments are disabled
I feel like Ben Stiller in "Meet the Parents" when he messed up everything and Robert De Niro asked him to leave... That was Taylor's moment and I had no right in any way to take it from her. I am truly sorry. 09.14.2009

If anything, he should feel like Ben Stiller in Zoolander when he goes up to accept the award even though Hansel won.

Kayne can kill himself. he is a piece of sh*t. i want to beat the Phuck out of him till he screams BONNAROOOOOOOOOO. I dont even like country music but how in the hell can youdo thta. Hes going to hell and if i see him there that sucks for him.
^^I'm not going to argue with you that Kanye is quite possibly the douchiest celebrity of this decade (and probably the next one, too), and what he did was the epitome of said douchiness, but... that's a little harsh, don't you think?

Didn't he sorta find himself in a riff with Phil Lesh and/or Bonnaroo? Guess who won... Phil sadly ended his performance early so that people could sit in a field for a few hours waiting, and Bonnaroo just ignored the entire situation all together.
Now that I think about it, maybe ignoring Kanye really is the only way to win... Either that, or hire a hitman surgeon to permanently wire his jaw shut so that he can never speak again. And they might as well deafen his ears so he can't hear or produce any beats ever again either. I don't wish death on him, I just wish the end of his career

Really if anyone is qualified to hate on Kanye the order goes like this 1. Bonnaroo Message board 2. Taylor Swift Message Board 3. Justice Message Board 4. All of Humanity
In all sincerity, I'd be fine with the guy if they just had a muzzle on him... I still think he's an amazing producer, though his most recent work has been garbage. He can't rap very well, it seems everything he says is straight out of his ass... yeah, a muzzle should work.

Kanye West and Glen Beck are both products of Pop culture, in truth what should one expect or be surprised of the outcome. Both agendas are unhealthy. Both are advocates of social polarization, this I find no matter who the advocate is, moves beyond destructive.
