With the whole Kanye West / Taylor Swift fiasco that occurred at this year's MTV Music Video Awards last month, the rest of the event seems like a blur.

But he wasn't the only one to crash the stage. D-list rapper Lil' Mama was also at the awards show and decided to jump on stage during Jay-Z's performance with Alicia Keys of Empire State of Mind.

And during a recent interview with Tyra Banks, Lil' Mama opens up about the incident and explains what she did and why.

Well, she tries to explain it, at least.

According to Lil' Mama:

”I don’t think it was as serious as everyone was trying to make it out to be…. When I was sitting in the stands I was very excited and I felt the connection, being from New York, being in Hip Hop… Alicia Keys being from Harlem and Jay Z being from Brooklyn and I was just so emotional.

I was really feeling it….I felt like I was being embraced at the time, Jay-Z was bouncing back and I’m feeling like this whole moment is happening but I’m not planning it to be a moment, it just happened.

I’m a dancer, and I definitely felt it. I wasn’t there to ruin the performance, I wasn’t there to bring anyone down or anything down. In that moment I kind of felt it coming so I just went with the flow.”

And has the lil' diva reached out to Jay-Z and Alicia to apologize?

Says the rude bitch:

“No, I haven’t, I have tried, I got management to reach out. I would like to speak to Jay-Z one-on-one, just to see how he felt. I would just love to apologize…It was never my intent to be disrespectful to anyone. I’ve always been a respectful young woman in this industry, people know me for that.

You can tell [Alicia] that I apologize and I definitely plan to work with both of them in the future and I hope this didn’t rock the boat.”

Bitch please, once you cross Jay-Z you're out of the game!

Check out the LOLz as Lil' Mama tries to downplay crashing the stage during Jay-Z and Alicia's performance.

Hot damn! Nothing about Lil' Mama at the BET Awards last night was anything less than completely fierce!

Only she could work that one-piece black jumper with the high-waisted leather belt to the fullest. And while we think the hair is a little one-trick pony, we're just jealous we can't do it too.

We'll say it again: AMAZEBALLS!

Damn, this is so dope! And a big surprise.

Lil' Mama is back with a new single, video and sound!

Click here to check out her truly fantastic Truly In Love.

She's singing on it! A lot. And does rap too, of course.

The whole sound/vibe reminds us of Solange's new album, which is a good thing.

We love it!

What do U think????

"My fan base is out of this world and the youth really look up to me and I know for a fact my album wasn't promoted correctly because people would come up to me like, 'Oh your album is out?' Or, 'This is the second one? It's really disturbing to know that I signed with a company that didn't promote my record properly. Highly disturbing."
