Kanye gets angry at the MTV awards
The rapper tells EVERYONE what he thinks
Last week was the MTV VMA Awards.
A lot of bands and singers won awards for their music and videos.
Taylor Swift won an award for ‘Best Female Video’. Taylor went on stage to say thank you.
But Kanye West didn’t agree that Taylor’s video was the best! He wanted Beyonce to win.
He went on stage and interrupted Taylor. He took the microphone and said, “Beyonce had the best video of all time.”
Taylor was shocked. Beyonce was in the audience and she felt embarrassed.
Later, when Beyonce was on stage, she invited Taylor to come on stage and say thank you again.

I really like Tayor Swift and her videos. I think Kanye West can have a different ideas, but he can't say it like this! He's impolite! What's Taylor Swift's winner video?

I like Beyonce's and Taylor's videos. I think that Kanye West didn't do the right thing, but he has apologized her...

I think that was pretty lame what he did. I like Taylor Swift She has very cool songs. Beyoncé's Single ladies was awesome and I agree that she had the best video, but what Kanye did was just off limits. You can't embarrass someone like that.

I love Taylor, she's my favourite foreigner singer. I've seen a lot of videos about Taylor's songs, and that's why I fell in love with her music. Like all rapers, Kanye West said what he thought, but I don't think that he had to do it while Taylor was in the stage. I like rap, but... sometimes they should kept silent.

I don't know these singers well, but I sometimes hear their music on the net, or I sometimes hear their songs on the radio. But I couldn't tell you who's the best in my opinion. I don't know Kayne West, but I think he hasn't been nice saying what he was thinking. I think he could just say after the show in a interview that his opinion wasn't accordant with the jury's one, he should say it nicely. The rappers, usually tell what they think directly, that's a good thing in the music, but when they're in a Tv Show they should adapt to the background where they are.

I like Taylor Swift, but I also think, that you shouldn´t compare Taylor Swift and Beyoncé. Because Taylor sings country and Beyoncé not. Kanye West was very mean.

I don't know very well this singers but I think that Kanye West was wrong. Taylor Swift won, if he wan't agree he could say it then to someone but he didn't go on stage and said those thing. If I was in Taylor I was really really really embarassed and angry.

To my mind everybody is allowed to say what`s on there mind,but I also think that Kanye was really unfair.

Personally I think Taylor Swift had to work very hard and I think it was right that she won The Award.The only thing I can not follow is that Kanye West said that Beyonce's video is better!!!???In my opinion I think Kanye West was really unfair against Taylor, because he took the microphone out of her hands and told her his opinion.I don't wonder that all people hate Kanye because of that. It wasn't right!! Normally I like rappers but I didn't thought that Kanye would do this.Generally Rappers are very nice but when they hear the word "Business" they are crazy and sometimes they say things they wouldn't say in fact.
