"I first met Kanye West six years ago, at this show actually!" Swift joked. "Since then, it seemed like everybody in the world knew about our infamous encounter at the VMAs." She then recalled West's profound influence on her childhood.

"Kanye West's album The College Dropout was the very first album my brother and I ever bought when I was 12 years old… I have been a fan of his since I can remember because Kanye defines what it is to be a creative force in music, fashion, and well, life,” Swift dished. She then hilariously reiterated the moment when West stormed the stage.
