Okay, I just joined Teen Ink, but I was also watching the VMA's.I saw Taylor Swift get her award for best female music video. The camera man turns to the crowd for not even 10 seconds and when he goes back to Taylor , Kayne West is standing right next to her. Andd he says," Taylor I will let you get back to your speech in a moment , but did you know Beyonce is winning best female artist...." (not his exact words but close).Everyone in redio city music hall was shocked even BEYONCE!He totally ruined Taylor's moment! Seriously, he'd be pretty damn upset if someone intterupted his award.I used to like Kayne more but now I definatly DONT.Go team Taylor!And P.S he can't even take back what he said!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

i agree with yu, beyonce does have better vocals, but lately her songs have not really had meaning behind them(single ladies..i rest my case) and to b honest, taylor's video was much better, it told a story, while beyonces video simply showed her in a leotard singing  and dancing in black and white..really i watched it and said 2 myself " and this was nominated 4 a VMa because.....?" i mean her vocals were good, but the video simply was not.... and yes taylor's music is basically al the same, but if yu notice, most artissts do write bout the same thing often (ex: Justin Bieber and girls, Kesha, and parties, etc) at least Taylors music is good:)

Ok, first of all, yes her songs are often about the same topic, but they are what she knows, and they're good songs. Also, she smiles a lot! How can u say she never smiles? I agree by the way, books4life19. :)

Allright, i hate Taylor. Im sorry, but i do. All she sings a bout is boys breaking up with her,  how he belongs with her, do i have to go on ? And, she NEVER smiles!!! But i agree, kayne seriously shouldnt have done that to her, i felt so bad. Beyonce should have won, though. Her music is way better and same with her vocals.

I think that everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Although I am a fan of Taylor, we all have to admit that Beyonce IS a much better singer, and because it was for vocals, she SHOULD have won it. However, Kanye should NOT have stolen the spotlight from her. I don't think he really cared about Beyonce, but wanted to take the spotlight off her and put it on him. In any case, what does it matter? We can't change what happened. Why bother bickering about it now? I am still a fan of both of them though.

Taylor deserved that. I dont think she is a good artist. She needs to die down from the spotlight for like 5 years. Then she can come back and maybe I will respect her.

Taylor Swift is very talented and kind. Kanye ruined his career the moment he said that and ruined her speech. If you're gonna diss Taylor, diss her when she is not the most popular female artist in America, when she is not winning Grammys and CMA awards, when she is not loved by all 100 billion of her friends, and especially not when she is on live television after just winning yet another award. Seriously, Kanye: what were you thinking? GO TAYLOR!!!!!

I thought that was hilarious. I honestly cannot stand Taylor Swift - she can't sing and she looks like a mouse. In my opinion, I don't think she should have won Best Female whatever whatever. So, Go Team Kanye (:
