POOR KID! I LOVE HER! She deserved it! She is so humble! Poor thing.
Quemical says – reply to this

34

Wow, he lives up to his rep of being the biggest douches. I'm not Taylor fan, but the poor girl got her moment stolen from her. She is in shock and has no idea what to say after he hands her the mic back. Stop supporting Kanye Shithead's lame overrated music and so he can fall back to planet earth.
ilovereading says – reply to this

omg I've been waiting for you to post about it so I could comment! I love all those artists who were nominated but I was soo happy that Taylor won! And I CANNOT BELIEVE that Kanye West did that. My jaw dropped, I was so floored and I felt so bad and embarrassed for her and I'm not even there! That completely changed my perspective of him. Ya he has that image of..oh…its just kanye..thats how he is..but no that was completely completely DISRESPECTFUL AND RUDE!! That is a true asshole move. I can't believe someone is capable of doing that and she did not deserve that at all. And regardless, her performance was still amazing! She did not let that get her down and I'm glad! She deserved that award just as much as everyone else. Kanye would not like it if someone had done that to him, so he should NOT have done that to her. I love taylor swift!! Kanye needs to grow up and not act like a 12 year old.
