As Taylor was giving her acceptance speech (she picked up the Best Female Video accolade for You Belong To Me), Kanye — who had earlier been pictured drinking Hennessy on the red carpet — grabbed the microphone and called Beyonce’s video for Single Ladies “one of the greatest of all time”.
According to Us Weekly, Taylor got “teary” after the incident.
It has also been claimed that right after Kanye’s outburst, VMA producers “kicked him out.”
“Security was told not to let him back in,” a source said. “While Beyonce was backstage, getting ready for her performance, she told the producers that if she won anything that should wanted to give Taylor the opportunity to finally give her acceptance speech – uninterrupted.”
Swift, 19, has already spoken out about the incident, saying, “I was standing on stage and I was really excited because I’d just won the award and then I was really excited because Kanye West was on stage. And then I wasn’t excited anymore after that.
“I don’t want to start anything. I had a great day. I’ve been sent so many text messages and everyone’s been really nice. I’ve had a really, really fun night.”
