Kanye posted an apology for his heckling during the VMA's:
"I'M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM," Kanye wrote on his site, AP reported. "I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD'VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED!"
Others aren't really buying his apology:
Pink tweeted about her annoyance with Kanye. "Kanye West is the biggest piece of sh-t on earth. Quote me," she wrote. "My heart goes out to Taylor Swift. She is a sweet and talented girl, and deserved her moment. She should know we all love her." She later said on the Today Show that the incident never would have happened if she had won because she had a cute Alexander McQueen purse with brass knuckles on it.
Now, I'm going to be honest here. I had heard Taylor Swift's name before but couldn't pick her out of a lineup before last night (and maybe still this morning). When I saw Kanye run up next to her on stage I thought it was part of the night's skits. After listening to what he had to say, I felt sorry for the girl. That was her first VMA and she is only 19. To her credit, Beyonce looked shocked and embarassed (though some are saying she and Kanye orchestrated the event). Maybe this was another Eminem-Sascha Baron Cohen type scam. If so, it was in poor taste just like so much of the awards show (Russell Brand's jokes, Lady Ga Ga's 'performance', etc.).
As far as Bey goes, it was just good PR for her to 'graciously' give up her award acceptance time to Taylor. If she hadn't, the backlash would have extended to her. Her PR team was just earning their keep. The same applies to her pre-show statement that Janet Jackson was one of her inspirations. This after her quote earlier this year: “I grew up upper class. Private school..My dad had a Jaguar. We’re African-American and we work together as a family, so people assume we’re like the Jacksons, but I didn’t have parents using me to get out of a bad situation.” Um, yeah. It doesn't sound much like she idolized her. More like just swaggerjacked her style and kept it moving.
fuck his apologies he and his whore need to go away NOW!
ReplyDeleteFUCK KANYE, FUCK HIS FAKE ASS APOLOGY. THE WHOLE APOLOGY THAT HE STATED, TALKED ABOUT HIM GETTING BOO'ED TOO. FUCK YOU KANYE. IF THAT NIGGA CROAKED TODAY, I WOULDN'T EVEN GIVE A SHIT! I KNOW THAT'S HARSH, BUT OH WELL. GIVE THAT LITTLE GIRL HER MOMENT. I HATE PEOPLE THAT ACT LIKE IT ALWAYS HAS TO BE ABOUT THEM. THOSE ARE THE WORST TYPE OF PEOPLE TO ME. YEAH, THAT WAS GOOD PR FOR BEYONCE TO DO THAT. I'M GLAD. THAT WAS FUCKED UP WHAT SHE SAID ABOUT THE JACKSON FAMILY THOUGH. WOW! THESE CELEBRITIES ARE A TRIP!
ReplyDeleteyou really think a pr team was behind this? Beyonce has an instant stealth stikeforce pr team that responds to a situation while it happens in real time!? Manners,good taste and what yo mama taught you, every now and then, just happens.
ReplyDeleteHer mama taught her to be an opportunistic ho and yes she has a pr team on standby to handle any and all situations because she can't think for herself and is always putting her foot in her mouth
ReplyDeletekanye west is a media whore who would do anything for a mention in the blogs
ReplyDeletePink and a whole lot of other people would have kicked his ass. He knew who to mess with and who to leave alone.
ReplyDeleteKanye speaks for himself. Not for me and any other black people. He has no class just like his ho for hire Amber Rose!
ReplyDeleteThat is a hot picture of Janet and Beyonce. Janet looks great after all these years. I'm not buying Kanye's apology because he had already planned to apologize before he even took the stage. I think that is wrong what he did to that girl. I also don't believe Beyonce is sincere in what she said about Janet. I just wish she would only sing. Not talk. Sing.
ReplyDeleteKanye apologized too little too late. no one wants to hear from him now. He will get booed tonight on Jay Leno. He will get booed everywhere he goes.
ReplyDeleteMathew nearly creamed himself when he saw this opportunity to make his cash cow look good.
ReplyDeleteIt came out Matthew put the whole thing together. He got Beyonce to give up her time to that girl. They talked about it before she went out on stage.
