Anyway, most of you probably knew or watched the "Kanye West dissing Taylor Swift" incident at the MTV VMA recently, right? That incident really tickled my funny bone, because it gave us a different kind of 'entertainment'... Hehehe
Here's my view at that incident. First of all, I think Kanye West must have been super irritated and he had his mind thinking that the awards revolves around racism and unfairness towards the African American Artistes. I mean, come on, you don't really believe that Taylor Swift's video IS better than Beyonce's Single Ladies, right? You don't really think there is any female artiste out there who released a better video than that this year, right? You know what, apart from the racism issue, i actually share Kanye West's sentiment of Beyonce having better video and more deserving to win. I really can't see how high-school romance Ala HSM kinda movies, can be more interesting to the judges rather than Beyonce's well choreographed dance machine! The only explanation I could think of is it's text voting, or the judging panel are girls and boys aged 11-17 years old.
Of course, Kanye West shouldn't grabbed the microphone from Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech... He should have just spoke to anyone of the news reporters outside and voiced his frustration or whatever. That way, he did not need to apologize. He'd still had his message across.
Anyway, that's my thought on that matter. It's not that I don't like Taylor Swift, I just thought she didn't deserve to win... There are many other better videos out there in 2008/2009 whatever year it was for!

in my personal opinion, it don't matter who won that award but it's just that kanye should not have walked on the stage and did what he did. it was embarrassing not only to taylor but i think it is also embarrassing to beyonce as well... what he did is just not right, like you said, there are other ways for him to get the message out..
