      Made some decent songs but an absolute F***ing tit and bellend.

      This man thinks he is some sort of a God, sh*t haircut, sh*t missus and some F***ing ridicolous lyrics.

      Kanye shut up! West ruins Taylor Swift's MTV moment
      Kanye West apologised for yet another outburst at the MTV Video Music Awards, this time directed at country-pop sweetheart Taylor Swift.

      The disruption upstaged not just Swift's awards speech, but the entire evening, including an emotional tribute to Michael Jackson.

      In a rare conciliatory moment, West took to his blog to apologise. In a standard all-caps message, West said: "I'M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD'VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED!"



      West — who has flipped out after losing at the VMAs, the Grammys, the American Music Awards and more — once again took umbrage when the awards process didn't go the way he wanted it to — but this time, it was on behalf of Beyonce.

      Beyonce, nominated for best female video for "Single Ladies," was bested by Swift, the best-selling artist of the year outside of Jackson.

      The 19-year-old was giddy when she won for her clip You Belong With Me, the first award given out Sunday, and said: "I always wondered what it would be like to maybe win one of these someday, but never actually thought it would happen."

      But West ruined her moment when he jumped on stage at Radio City Music Hall.

      "Taylor, I'm really happy for you, and I'm gonna let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time," said West, as a shocked Beyonce looked on and the crowd began to boo.

      A crestfallen Swift didn't finish her speech, but the crowd applauded her anyway. She later performed You Belong With Me in a subway station.

      Swift later got a speech do-over, courtesy of Beyonce, who won video of the year for Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It). Beyonce recalled that she won her first VMA at age 17, as a member of Destiny's Child.

      "I remember how excited I was," she said. "I'd like Taylor to come out and have her moment."

      A smiling but nervous Swift then said, "Can we try this again?" before going on to thank everyone she would have thanked had West not interrupted her.

      Later, backstage, Swift said she had never met West and had been a fan. She declined to get into a verbal tussle with West: "I don't know him and I don't want to start anything."

      Instead, she praised Beyonce for giving her the stage: "I thought that I couldn't love Beyonce more and then tonight happened and it was just wonderful."

      The celebrity crowd was unforgiving of West. When Diddy read his name later in the show while introducing the nominees for best male video, the crowd booed, and Diddy said in mock surprise, "What happened?" The crowd responded by chanting Swift's name (T.I. ended up winning the award). They also booed his name later.

      West also addressed that, too, on his blog: "BEYONCE'S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!! ... EVERYBODY WANNA BOOOOO ME BUT I'M A FAN OF REAL POP CULTURE!!! NO DISRESPECT BUT WE WATCHIN' THE SHOW AT THE CRIB RIGHT NOW CAUSE ... WELL YOU KNOW!!!! I'M STILL HAPPY FOR TAYLOR!!!! "

      The incident provided the VMAs with its traditional watercooler moment, but also completely overshadowed what had been expected to be the show's main attraction — a poignant, tender tribute to Michael Jackson by Madonna and sister Janet.

      Madonna gave a moving speech about her relationship with Jackson, which began when she was a youngster idolizing the then-child star, then morphed into a friendship when both were at the apex of their careers and later, grew distant. Madonna lamented the negative publicity that dogged him in his later years.

      "Sometimes, we have to lose things before we can truly appreciate them," said Madonna, dressed in black.

      "Yes, Michael Jackson was a human being, but yes, he was a king," she told the celebrity-studded crowd, which included Michael's brother Jermaine and father Joe Jackson. "Long live the king."

      The musical tribute began afterward, as Jackson clones dressed in some of his signature outfits recreated his famous dance moves from his videos.

      Then, as Scream, his duet with Janet, appeared on a large screen, his sister came out to recreate the moves from their only video together as the crowd, including Beyonce, cheered her on. Afterward, she looked heavenward, and bowed.

      Jackson died on June 25 at age 50. Jackson was not only an integral part of MTV's history, he also provided the VMAs with some of its most memorable moments, including his infamous smooch with then-wife Lisa Marie Presley, in 1994.

      The night had its surreal moments. Lady Gaga — who arrived at the show wearing a gold mask right out of "Phantom of the Opera" and with Kermit the Frog as her date — gave a typically eccentric performance of her song "Paparazzi."

      It started off with Lady Gaga dressed in white, on the floor, and seemed to recall Madonna's famous VMA wedding-dress performance. But it soon morphed into bizarre imagery that included a bedazzled wheelchair, Lady Gaga dancing with a crutch, and ended with her hanging as fake blood drenched her torso.

      Later, when she won the award for best new artist, she accepted it draped in red lace from head to toe — literally, as the lace covered her face. She ripped the lace from her face during her profanity-laden speech, which she ended by saying, "Thank you for God and for the gays."

      The night's best performance may have come courtesy of Pink, who delivered a high-flying version of her song Sober with an acrobatic, trapeze act that had her dangling from the rafters.

      And the night didn't just focus on music: Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner, the stars of the vampire film Twilight, presented an extended trailer from the movie's sequel, New Moon.

      A Jackson moment ended the night, however. The VMAs aired the full trailer for This Is It, the documentary about Jackson's preparations for his comeback concerts that were to be held in London. The trailer included new footage of Jackson performing his signature moves. The film is due to come out in October.

      I personally found that quite amusing! But it does just smack of someone wanting to grab the spotlight ahead of someone else. And Beyonce must of been well embarrassed by him!

      But he has some quality tracks, was listening to him earlier actually!

      Also I saw Lady Gaga's outfit, she is an odd creature, does my head in the F***ing she-man.

      I thought he was bang out of order, but I'm not surprised by his actions, he's done it before.
      Poor Taylor though, she didn't know where to look when he interrupted her.
      I'm glad she won, she's done bloody well for herself, outselling major artists, writing her own songs which top the charts, selling out arena's world wide and she's only just 19 years old. She deserved her moment to shine, Pity Kayne stuck his nose in.

      Kanye West is a fantastic artist, but he lets his big head get in the way most of the time and acts like a tw*t.
      Who the feck gave him the right to decide who should win? Oh yeh, he claims he is the new 'King Of Pop'. I think we can safely say MJ's crown is not going to be taken soon.

      What a shame.

      His problem is he can't leave things be at times - it seems like he always wants to get across what he thinks. Harsh on Taylor Swift that.

      :lmao: So did I! Watched the video and couldn't help laughing at Taylor Swift or whatever her name is just standing there. Kanye is what's known as an idiot, but I do like his music, wouldn't say he's the greatest musican of all time as he likes to say but some of his songs are quality.

      I don't really like Taylor's songs ( me friends love her ) cuz they're a bit cheesy for me . But I'm glad Beyonce's single ladies didn't get that . Bah! I can't stand that music video dress in some sh*te shaking all that jelly around . But I'm happy she let Taylor do it all over again . I felt really bad for Taylor because she was a young girl .Nasty what Kanye did swigging with that girlfriend with a dress to match his actions : disgusting !

      I think Kanye West's parents didn't love him enough.  He is constantly crying for attention.  Case in point....

      I think, if i was, (soft enough in the head), to listen to and somehow like the homogeneous sh*te that Kanye West puts out, under the guise of 'music' - i'd make sure never to play another track by the wankstain - nevermind put my hard earned into his pocket.

      I used to F***ing love him a few years back.

      What has he turned into. Watched it again before - unbelievable. Just imagine how she must have felt standing on that stage when he went and said that.

      He could have thought that in his own mind, gone up to Beyonce afterwards and told her what he thought. Even just said 'I thought Beyonce deserved it...' in the press or something. Strange behaviour. I wonder how many fans he's lost because of this.
