    I don't necessarily agree with the concept of these award shows to begin with, they enforce that American Dream aspect that competition is necessary and that you need to win to be respected, while all those nominated (or even not nominated for that matter) should feel proud of any work they achieve.

    HOWEVER, let's save that for EoEo.

    That being said, Kanye West is indeed a tool. Taylor Swift was obviously basking in a moment that was of great significance to her, and this dolt has to redirect the spotlight to himself and ruin it.

    This guy is a joke.

    I think it should be noted, since I hadn't seen it mentioned yet, that Beyonce's video actually won 'Video of the Year'. So in a sense, Kanye was vindicated. (Won the 'biggest' award in the show, but lost to Taylor Swift in a more minor category. Awards shows are a joke--come for the entertainment, don't take the actual awards themselves seriously.)

    Still, the delivery was wrong.

    He wins.

    Everyone on every forum is STILL talking about it all day today.

    Bad publicity = more name recognition = more album and concert ticket sales = Win.

    I think he might have planned it.

    I don't think I've seen any Beyoncé or Taylor Swift videos. Still some epic douchery on West's part, though.

    Angry And I will storm the stage if she doesn't win it.

    Honestly, and all joking aside, this shocked me to the core. I was really, really angry and I deleted most of Kanye's songs from my iPod in disgust. I also signed an online petition against him and called him a little scrote on my Twitter. We've got to show him that he can't get away with treating people like this.

    Beyonce, girl, you brought a tear to my eye. She should win the Nobel Peace Prize for sure.

    This is all getting a little silly now. Jay Leno was asking Kanye what his dead mother would think of it! What he did was daft but by the way some people have gone on you'd think that he'd arrived on stage and punched Taylor Swift in the face before running off laughing. He's an idiot but he's hardly Chris Brown in terms of tosspot level.

    When it comes to Beyonce, Psy is dangerously in love.

    Well you know what? Kanye should have jumped in earlier.

    Taylor swift should be honored by his lateness
    The fact he would even show up to this fake .
