I'm sure everyone either watched the VMA's on Sunday or has heard about the craziness by now. Also, I'm sure that I'm just one of about bazillion people blogging about this but I'm OK with that. I am a complete Taylor Swift fan. I love country music and she is absolutely adorable, how could you not love her? Being up against huge name stars like BEYONCE is an incredible accomplishment in itself. I'm sure Taylor didn't think she was going to win, or that her video was any better then Beyonces or anyone elses for that matter. But seriously Kanye, calm down. Do you really think the VMA's are the be all and end all of what matters in the music industry. They are far from it. It makes complete and total sense that Taylor Swift won because the only people in the world who have time to sit at their computers and vote for ridiculous MTV award shows are 13 year old girls. And they probably weren't weighing Beyonce's technical dance skills when they did it. They were jamming to the Taylor Swift CD at a sleep over party. So basically Kanye, you made yourself look like an ass.
Was is racially motivated? I dont know. But did Beyonce come out on top and make her self look fabulous by the end of it all, absolutely. Weather it was Kanye supporting a fellow black performer, or a huge heist by MTV (which would be pretty genius by the way) It did look really awful that they were teaming up on Taylor like that. While beyonce did look surprised that it happened I would have been mad at her too BUT she took the stage at the end of the night and beautifully and gracefully gave it back to Taylor so she could finish her speech. People kiss the ground she walks on anyways and that made her even more of a hero. Alls well that's ends well, and we will not even go into Kanyes half assed apology. Congrats Taylor! and Beyonce wins again.

poor taylor swift indeed. let someone else get the limelight for once, kanye! everyone knows beyonce has been fly for years. and i never thought about the demographic that would be voting for this thing, it makes a lot more sense now.
ReplyDeleteUsually I dont really care to defens , pathetic rich little white girls, but for some reason I just hate Kanye West. This VMA incident doesnt help him in my book.
ReplyDeleteyeah i heard that kanye's reason was because his mother just died and he was morning. look i get that he's probably going through a tough time but enough is enough that was totally uncalled for.
ReplyDeleteI really like your theories on why Taylor won (13 year old girls at a sleepover! :)). But What I keep asking myself is the same thing you said you didn't know... was this whole incident racially motivated? Was Kanye "defending" Beyonce, because she is a fellow member of his race, or just because they are friends?
