Kanye West went up to Taylor Swift and snatched the mic from her hand in front of everybody at the MTV Video Music Awards. Swift was in the middle of delivering an acceptance speech, as she had just won Best Female Video.
Seems Kanye felt someone else deserved the win. On stage he bewildered everyone by shouting, 'I'm sorry, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time.' Swift wasn't the only person who looked shocked, as the camera immediately cut to Beyoncé for a reaction shot. She appeared puzzled as well.
Now everyone is talking about Kanye's stunt, especially on Twitter. Trendrr, a social media tracker, reports there were almost 300,000 tweets about Kanye in the hour that followed the American Boy's rant.
Some of those tweeters included Katy Perry, Pink and Hayley Williams, according to MTV. Pink tweeted, 'My heart goes out to Taylor Swift. She is a sweet and talented girl and deserved her moment.' She also wrote some unflattering things about Kanye.
Kanye has a history of acting up. He once made some pretty serious accusations regarding George Bush, and then there was also the time he got really upset on stage because Justice and Simian got Best Video for We Are Your Friends at MTV's Europe Music Awards in Copenhagen.
