Update: Kanye West Ambushes Taylor Swift at VMAs

Sunday – September 13, 2009 – 10:07pm

Kanye West ruined Taylor Swift's big moment at Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards.

As the 19-year-old singer accepted the Best Female Video award for "You Belong With Me," the rapper, 32 -- who had been drinking Hennessy on the red carpet -- appeared on stage and stated that Beyonce should have won for "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)."

"Yo, Taylor, I'm really happy for you, and I'm going to let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time," he shouted. "One of the best videos of all time!"

Swift looked stunned and speechless.

The cameras panned to Beyonce, who looked stunned as well.

The crowed then booed West off stage and the show immediately cut to commercial.

After the break, host Russell Brand praised both performers.

"What we're celebrating tonight is love!" he said. "Mutual love for everybody. Taylor Swift. Beyonce... Love for all of you!"

Later in the show, when Diddy introduced the nominees for Best Male Video, he mentioned West's name and the crowd booed.

Diddy looked stunned. "What happened?" he asked. "What did I say?"

"Taylor!" fans then chanted.

At the end of the show, Beyonce let Swift have her moment when Beyonce won Video of the Year. She got on stage and asked Swift to join her. "I remember being 17-years old, up for my first MTV award for Destiny's Child and it was one of the most exciting moments of my life," she began. "So I would like for Taylor to come out and have her moment."

Swift walked on stage and smiled as the crowd cheered.

"Maybe we could try this again?" Swift said, before thanking her brother and fans.

The crowd continued to cheer.

CARRIE UNDERW, BRIT-BRIT, JESSICA SIMP, ASHLEY SIMP, KELLY PICKLER AND THE LIST GOES ON AND FREAKING ON...SHE SHOULD BE GLAD THAT KANYE GAVE HER LAME-SELF SOME NOTERIETY. TAYLOR SUCKS, BADLY.

    props to Beyonce for asking Taylor Swift to join her onstage. Show what a real class act she is. I applaud them both on their awards. Kanye is just messed up and he apologize to Taylor in the end.. Still does not excuse the ACT..

    Yes Kanye West is a JERK how is he going to do something like this to a young rising star he wouldn't have wanted someone to do that to him. He is arragant and using paid airtime that he hasn't paid for to put down people like BUSH and now Taylor Swift and on top of that he wears sun glasses on stage so noone can see his eyes because he is probably messed up. And on BUSH's behalf Our governor at the time in Louisiana was Blanco she is the reason most of the people didn't make it and the mayor of New ORleans should have evacuated the entire city with the school buses for people who had no transportation. Kanye you didn't live here you don't know shit!! Taylor Swift enjoy that award girl you deserve it. And Kanye grow up and maybe it is best you stay out the spot light, cause your light don't seem to bright!

    To all of you commenting. Bottom line is he was drinking and like most people who get drunk, make fools of themselves. But all he really did is ruin his career. Already a tour is cancelled. And when the croud Boos you. You will go down quick. He is now a has been and is very stupid. Like most singers today, who cannot sing, except Taylor and Beyonce, the rest are simply tracked. Go to a concert and here how poor they sound without all of the mixing. It is a shame that music award shows are done poorly, by allowing unclassed acts like West on the show in the first place. Bring back the Ojays, the Spinners, Blue Magic, etc. Now those are class acts. Nuff Said ....ps.anyone who puts a chat supporting West is stupoid
