These awards are clearly rubbish and dedicated to the popularity of the artist and ensuring they go to the show for ratings rather than the actual videos merits BUT that Beyonce video is fantastic. Great choreography

Mossy Monk

I will no doubt skip past it all, watch Muse and then delete it from my hard drive.

Anyone see Kanye West hijacking Taylor Swift's award..? What a flipping knob-head!

Jimmy Iovine

You should know by now that hes a gimp. How could he do that to Taylor Swift of all people. She's insanely good looking poor form from Mr. West

I'm surprised he didn't play the racial card. Might have worked

Oh yeah and another thing how can Beyonce win video of the year when she didn't even win the female one

Snake Plisken

yeah he should be banned from MTV awards he did something similar at the MTV Europe awards

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTJxj7a9-DA

Knob head of the highest order

Actually fair play to Beyonce for inviting Taylor back up for her moment of glory and from reading the following it looks like West was kicked out of the show nice comments from Pink and Katie Perry

The MTV awards are stupid anyway. I mean are they for the songs, or the actual videos? They're called the video music awards??

As someone said aswell how can Beyonce not win best female video, but then win best video overall??

Green Day won an award for Cinematography? WTF?

Kanye West really needs to be banned from award ceremonies, he does this pretty much every time! What a twat!

KANYE WEST IS STILL A JERK


KANYE WEST takes a back seat to no one at an awards show -- and that includes MICHAEL JACKSON. MTV delivered on its promise to have Michael's sister, JANET JACKSON, open the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards at New York City's Radio City Music Hall last night with a fitting tribute to the pop icon. Yet Kanye managed to steal the spotlight just moments later when, in typical Kanye fashion, he interrupted TAYLOR SWIFT during her acceptance speech and complained that she'd she won the best female video award over BEYONCÉ.

As Taylor accepted the honor for "You Belong With Me," Kanye appeared onstage, cut her off and lectured the crowd about how Beyoncé's video for "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" -- which was nominated in the same category -- was one of the best music videos of all time. Beyoncé was too shocked to soak in the compliment from her seat. Poor Taylor never did finish her speech, but B made it up to her when she won the Video of the Year prize later on in the night. She stepped aside and invited Taylor to come up onstage and finish her prepared remarks, which she did. Kanye later apologized in a posting on his blog, writing in all caps, " I'M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD'VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED!" Taylor, meanwhile, called the night, "interesting."

Brand was a bland idiot host - should have let Fallon and/or Samberg host

Kanye was a stupid moron

Jimmy fallon is a million times worse than Russell Brand, he's just a silly, smug little clown. At least Brand has a bit of presence.

Andy Samberg might have been good though

Mr.Nice Guy

Obama called him a jackass.

NEW YORK — President Barack Obama's candid thoughts about Kanye West are provoking a debate over standards of journalism in the Twitter age.

ABC News says it was wrong for its employees to tweet that Obama had called West a "jackass" for the rapper's treatment of country singer Taylor Swift. The network said some of its employees had overheard a conversation between the president and CNBC's John Harwood and didn't realize it was considered off the record.

The network apologized to the White House and CNBC.

Harwood had sat down with the president to tape an interview following his appearance on Wall Street on Monday. Although they are competitors, CNBC and ABC share a fiber optic line to save money, and this enabled some ABC employees to listen in on the interview as it was being taped for later use.

Their attention was drawn to chatter about West, who was widely criticized for interrupting Swift as she accepted an award at Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards to say that Beyonce deserved it.

During what sounds like informal banter before the interview begins, Obama is asked whether his daughters were annoyed by West's hijacking of Swift's acceptance statement, according to an audio copy that was posted on TMZ.com.

"I thought that was really inappropriate," Obama says. "What are you butting in (for)? ... The young lady seems like a perfectly nice person. She's getting her award. What's he doing up there?"

A questioner chimes in, "Why would he do it?"

"He's a jackass," Obama replies, which is met with laughter from several people.

The president seems to quickly realize he may have gone too far, and jovially appeals to those assembled that the remark be kept private. "Come on guys," he says. "Cut the president some slack. I've got a lot of other stuff on my plate."

E-mails shot around among ABC employees about Obama's comments, said Jeffrey Schneider, ABC News spokesman. Before anything was reported on ABC's air or Web site, at least three network employees took to Twitter to spread the news.

Have to agree with the President. Kanye's such a gayfish.
