Kanye West Finally Apologizes
Filed under: MTV > Kanye West > Awardz > Taylor Swift
Kanye West definitely stole the show last night at the 2009 MTV VMAs.
When Taylor Swift took the stage after winning the Best Female Video award, she began to give her acceptance speech. That's when Kanye jumped on stage, took her mic, and told everyone that Beyonce had the best video ever.
Who knew he was such a Beyonce fan?
Well, his douchey move left Taylor speechless and fans upset with him.
But just hours after the incident, Kanye has taken to his official blog to clear things up and issue an apology. We're glad he listened to his PR people.
Says Kanye:
"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! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEERLEADER AND SHE'S IN THE BLEACHERS! …………………… I'M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT!…………….. BEYONCE'S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FANS IF I LET YOU GUYS DOWN!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FRIENDS AT MTV. I WILL APOLOGIZE TO TAYLOR 2MRW. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!!! 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!!!! BOOOYAAAWWWW!!!! YOU ARE VERY VERY TALENTED!!! I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME… THAT'S WHAT IT IS!!!!!!! I'M NOT CRAZY YALL, I'M JUST REAL. SORRY FOR THAT!!! I REALLY FEEL BAD FOR TAYLOR AND I'M SINCERELY SORRY!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!!!
What do U make of this apology? Does it seem sincere or a publicity ploy?

I still don't like him. He shouldn't have done it in the first place.
DICKHEAD
you are still an asshole kanye.
He's an ASSHOLE.. and should be allowed back at ANY award shows.. His Mother must be so proud!!!!
that didn't even make any sense.
PR, even if that's how he felt, who gave him the right to interrupt…no class whatsoever!
wtf-ever!!!!!!!!! a little too late. he's nothing but a racist pig. hopefully he will be banned from EVERY show/award ceremony from now on.
I don't get it. Why did Kanye say in his apology that he once gave his award to Outkast because Outkast deserved it? Is he insinuating that Taylor Swift didn't deserve hers?
DOUCHE
HES SO FULL OF HIMSELF!
I think Kanye the Gay Fish should save ALL of his aggresion in case hell freezes over and Heidi Montag ever wins a VMA for best anything…. that's one rant that would be well deserved and well appreciate by the public.
Team Taylor!
so obviously fake.
i still think he should drop dead and soon, and perhaps take megan fox with him.
first. www.andpop.com
The guy is a douche
fake ass person
oh please it's absolutely publicity. fail kanye. we all still hate you. taylor win.
Douche-and-a-half.
I call bullshit. Good attempt PR people, but huge fail.
Shut up Kanye.
An apology doesn't mean he still isn't a major DOUCHE BAG!! Being real means saying something when it's the appropiate time to say it and keeping your douche hole shut when it's someone else's spotlight. Who wrote that apology anyhow? His 8 year old brother? Douche Douche DOUCHE!!!!!!!!!!!
" I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME… THAT'S WHAT IT IS!!!!!!! "
In other words, he is telling Taylor to give her award to Beyonce. Still a jerk!
I think he is just now tryin to save his ass…from more booing! …….who cares… i dont
Kanye is an idiot. And that was not an apology. He's still a douche in my book.
that is the worst apology ever…. Kanye is an asshole….
he can take his apology and shove it up his ass!! kanye west SUCKS, i f*cking ahte him!!!!
He's still a HUGE d-bag.
I don't beleive Kanye meant his apology. It's just a way to get off of people's shit lists. It doesnt even sound genuine.. he needs to come face to face with Taylor and genuinly apologize.
Backhanded apology… DOUCHE
was that suppose to be an apology?
He has got the biggest mouth. I think he likes to call attention to himself. As an Artist he should understand about respecting other artists and their talent. Don't matter who they are and what they sing! I don't like him but I do like his music. He has got talent but so do other people. He's so high on himself!
I believe its sincere!! Just a shame that he had to do that! she will NEVER get that moment back! and like Beyonce said such a big moment for a teenager! either way its really nice he is appologized
omg he is such a wanker! If he felt like Beyone should have won he could have found other ways to express this…. not ruin an innocent girls night!! She will never get that moment back!! KANYE BOOOOOO
what a douche. who cares if he has apologised
or if the incident was a publicity stunt anyway
t swizzle forever!
OKay! so no i dont think it was honest at all i think he just did it cuz he knows people will get over it as long as he appologizes…thats just plain RUDE what he did!
first
You have no class… that is not an apology at all…
omg he is such a wanker! If he felt like Beyonce should have won he could have found other ways to express this…. not ruin an innocent girls night!! She will never get that moment back!! KANYE BOOOOOO
It's bullshit.
His publicist probably had that written before he ever even left the stage. Actions speak louder than words. Let's see if he mans up and personally apologizes to her tomorrow. I dont' think it's very sincere…
that is NOT an apology!
Wack!!
Kayne West is a self-centered, narcissistic, douchebag asshole. And he proved it tonight more than ever.
Poor Taylor Swift. That was a once in a lifetime moment for her and he fucking ruined it. Nice going fuckface.
Bullshit…
Its complete bull shit he's an ass…
"I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME… THAT'S WHAT IT IS!!!!!!! "
Does he want Taylor to give her award up? She deserves it she's done more in her 19 years of life than most people can say on their death beds…
Kanye, time to go play in traffic.
He seems sincere, still it was a douchy move on his part
He's manic.
Christen Belin for president. fuck kanye
Kanye is whack and rude. I'm not buying this!!! I HATE HIM!!! LOVE Taylor
the whole situation sucks..he should have never done it in the first place..even if this apology is "SENCERE" he should not do things if he has to apologize to make it better..THINK BEFORE YOU ACT KANYE..i feel like hes always making a big deal of something..like the time he thought he should of won instead of justice?..i think it was..hes just dumb sometimes…
Meh. The guy is a scumbag. Nice "apology".
No class what so ever!
FUCK OFF KAYNE!
I think its real. I still love him and his music, even if he does get carried away with his opinions sometimes.
How can he say "much respect"? It is completely fine to have an opinion but is unnecessary to jump on stage and ruin this 17 year old girls dream and once in a lifetime moment;winning her first VMA! He were disrespectful and arrogant, which actually is the norm for him anyways. If he disagreed with the outcome of this award there was a more adult-like and classy way of voicing his feelings on what he thinks is "real pop culture." Since he didn't win an award tonight, I award him the biggest Asshole award! Way to go Kanye!…You did it again!
That's a BULL SH*T apology if I ever read one. He's trying to make it look like he's not a complete ASS.. TOO LATE!! His Mother would be so proud!!!
can someone teach this guy english please? Thanks, much love
i wont lose any sleep when someone tupac's this motherfucker one day…what a bisexual prick
That's an apology? Unbefuckingleavable. He basically just told Taylor that she should give her award to Beyonce. What kind of apology would include such douchebaggery? Kanye should keep his opinions to himself. Totally inexcusable behavior on stage and it has continued on into his rant of an "apology".
he's a big f'n tool. huge tool. go home kanye. you blow, you're poor loser and you're fade sucks…
Woww. What a stupid ass! He obviously feels no remorse. What a douchebag.
Yeah he's real a real Hijo de la gran puta . He must have a little dick to accompany that EGO !!!!
so annoying
I think it sounds like he is still drunk. Either that, or he desperately needs a course in writing.
That was the worst apology ever.
He's still an ass in my book.
Good musically but douche personally!
As far as I'm concerned Kanye is a fucking racist! Fuck if I'll EVER buy any of his music again! Fucking prick fron the get-go.
his apology is shit. i mean he talking out of both sides of his dumbass mouth. like always. he is jealous because he didnt win any awards at any mtv awards or any other awards and theres a reason for that. YOU SUCK!!!!
Well Kanye, welcome to the real world. Pop culture is not the only music on the planet that fans enjoy…get over yourself and your wacked opinions and outbursts! Apologies after the fact do not take away the moment that you ruined for an artist who is working very hard to create a very positive future & career for herself. Kanye is selfish and small minded to think that Beyonce's video is the best of the decade, though it was good, it was slightly boring with no storyline, and that is why it didn't win. I still won't buy his music now!
I dont care if he does apologize, i still think he is an ass! He just loves the attention doesnt care what kind! I dont think this is sincere, just another pr stunt, like always…. Glad that taylor and B handled it with total class and grace…. he has a right to an opinion but no tthe way he did it… he is a waste of sperm and egg!
YEA!!! once an asshole always an asshole. You would think that after everything he went through with his mother that he would have learned to be a little more HUMBLE! But i guess "Humble" does not sell records!!!! ASSHOLE!
it's a total publicity stunt. his comments do NOT sound sincere at all.
That was a non-apology apology….he tried to make it sound like he was sorry but his not really. He's a d-bag. I used to like him…
its a little too late for that. such an asshole; i dont believe one word of it.
BOOOOOO!!!
fuck him and his apology. fuck him and his new androgynous girlfriend…fuck Kanye….no more CD sales for him…
God, what music video was he even talking about? Single Ladies? All I saw when I watched that was fat jiggling around.
such a stupid, stupid man
seems like a load of crap to me
it is what it is but i still dont think he means it
lame kanye
HEY KANYE I CAN TYPE IN CAPS ALSO..: LISTEN YOU PHONY, RACIST, UNEDUCATED, TRASH!!! YOU RUINED THE MOMENT BECAUSE YOU ARE A BIGOT AND YOUR APOLOGY IS NOT SINCERE!!!!!
I A WHITE PERSON WILL NEVER EVER LISTEN OR BUY YOUR MUSIC AGAIN!!
GET OVER YOUR RACISM ITS 2009, OUR PRESIDENT IS BLACK…!!!
BEYONCE, JAY-Z AND KANYE ARE ALL A BUNCH OF BIGOTS AND RACIST WHO WOULD BE NOTHING IF THE WHITE, BLACK, LATINO, AND ASIANS DID NOT BUY THEIR MUSIC.
SO KAYNE YOU HAVE LOST IT…AND NEED TO STEP OFF
It's far from Sincere. U can tell he is making fun of the song and reminding everyone he thinks he is awesome. That is no apology. That is done to try and save face.
OHHHH GGGGGOOODDDD
* * *
HE GOT JUST WHAT HE WANTED: ATTENTION… NOW THE SHOW WILL BE REMEMBERED FOR WHAT HE DID. GREAAAAAAAAT.
An apology won't fix this.. he ruined her moment, and she's such a sweet girl. He probably isn't even that big of a Beyonce fan, he just has a hugeeee ego and wants all eyes on him.
Seriously, that is no where NEAR an appology, and I hope Kanye's career goes down the friggin toilet. I hope that Beyonce was embarassed by him, and that either her or Taylor disses him in an upcoming song, even though they are the most classiest girls on the planet. Seriously. I deleted every song of his off my Ipod. He does not deserve a career for dissing an innocent girl like Taylor.
First…he still a douche
I mean, Beyonces is a nice video and all but best of the DECADE?! Not even really best of the year in my opinion…just a lot of booty shaking. Womanizer is soooo much better!
i hated kanye from the start and now it gives me more reason to.
I was totally a Kayne fan and not a real country fan, but Taylor is cute and now I am deleting kayne from my ipod, I pitty a person who thinks they are above anyone else, boo no more profit from my dollars to your records!!
KANYE'S A FUCKING RACIST.
end of fucking story.
dousch. regardless of the apology he's still an ass.
and was he justifying his actions? "beyonce's video is the best of the decade". NO ONE cares about your opinion dbag.
What a LOSER Kanye is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Only Reason He Apologized Was Because Someone Told Him Something. I Honestly Dont Think He Means It….Wat A JERK!!!
that wasn't heart felt at all. that was a quick PR stunt so he seems sincere. its not being REAL its showing YOU HAVE NO CLASS. I'm not a fan of Taylor Swift personally, but that was completely uncalled for, and Kanye should be embarrassed for what he did. Thats so tacky.
And you losers did all this bashing! Kanye is the shit, and he will continue to be the shit!!
first, and he's full of shit
full of crap
WTVR still the douchiest thing ive EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NOT FORGIVEN YOU ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Yes Beyonces video *was* better than Taylors it was an EPIC video actually, it will always be known as the "Beyonce dance" but that was a 19 year old girl's moment and you have forever taken that away from her even, if Beyonce did try to give her back her moment it still wasnt the same!!!!
What an asshole, a "blog apology"? How about you buy some air time on TV and give an apology? We don't want an explaination on your blog, we want to see you apologize!
PS- Your chic is shittious!
That wasn't an apology. He just did the same thing over again, via text.
Say goodbye to your career Kanye. Though, I guess it's been gone for a while anyways, since you haven't won any awards in forever…jerk.
Complete Publicity Stunt! Still Cant save you Kanye! Typical Asshole!
