In a super-classy gesture, when Beyonce won Video of the Year for "Single Ladies" toward the end of the evening, she said she remembered what it was like being nominated for a VMA at age 17 with Destiny's Child. Then she called Taylor back to the stage, saying "I'd like Taylor to come out and have her moment."
And when Taylor came out on the stage, she joked, "Maybe we could try this again," to loud applause.

Given Kanye West's notorious history in the public eye (remember that totally inappropriate comment on MSNBC back in 1985 during the telethon for hurricane Katrina relief and the incident about a year ago at Los Angeles International Airport with the paparazzi by destroying that camera?), this may be the last straw for many of the people associated with him.
If I were Beyoncé Knowles I'd RIGHT NOW offer my apologies to Taylor Swift for that despicable behavior by Kanye West.

How about you post a video showcasing your own amazing talents, and we'll all vote whether you're better than Taylor Swift?
And it wasn't country music getting crapped on, it was a young 19-year-old girl whose dream moment was turned to shit by an egotistical lunatic. If you don't feel anything for her then you have a black soul, sir, and I pray for you.

Not really
I still think what Kanye did is hilarious though, and then the crowd turning on him was priceless

Indeed. What Beyonce did tonight was world class. Bravo to her. And I just hope and pray this is the final nail in Kanye's coffin. Based on the crowd's reaction and response to all of his nominations (negative) and Taylor coming back on stage, I'd like to think he's on his way out. That talentless hack.

Kanye should've been done after the Bush comment, but maybe this will do it.

I'm sad to say I love the guy's music. I can't fucking stand him or his disgusting ego, but I like his beats and I like his albums. That's not to say he gets any money from me.
Really, really asshole like of him. So I guess that whole "I need to re-think how I act" thing after the South Park episode was just a line of bullshit. What a total dickweed. I don't think he'll ever get knocked down a peg - the guy is too popular.
And that "thing" he's with is his "girlfriend". I don't see why he would be hating on Taylor Swift - she did a great mashup with T-Pain of her one song so I mean she gets respect in that regard. Kanye is just a fucking asshole.

I'm only reminded of his existence, when he does something stupid.

Listen, El Scorcho, what Kanye did tonight was completely uncouth, unprofessional and just plain uncool. Just Google his latest tirade tonight and you will see that almost everybody is tired and finished with him. As the crowd during the show blatantlly showed.

Chris, really, stop trying to defend this asshole. Are you kidding me?
There is ZERO excuse for the way he behaved tonight.

Well since she WAS nominated for that particular award I would say its certainly feasible.
