Kanye West APOLOGIZES, in all caps, to Taylor Swift

Kanye West didn't waste much time in posting an emphatic apology to Taylor Swift after he interrupted her acceptance speech at the Video Music Awards Sunday.Before the show was even over Sunday, West had posted an all-caps, exclamation point-heavy apology to Swift for storming the stage during her acceptance of the best female video award and telling the crowd he thought Beyonce should have won. That is, he apologized for interrupting her, not for his conviction that Beyonce should have won.
"I'm sooooo sorry to Taylor Swift and her fans and her mom," West wrote (we removed the caps but kept the punctuation; you can see the apology in its original form here). "... She is very talented! I like the lyrics about being a cheerleader and she's in the bleachers! .............. I'm in the wrong for going on stage and taking away from her moment!"
West also said he'd personally apologize to Swift on Monday, but then launched into a defense of his actions: "Weclome to the real world!!!! Everybody wanna booooo me but I'm a fan of real pop culture!!! ... I gave my awards to Outkast when they deserved it over me... That's what it is!!!!!!! I'm not crazy y'all, I'm just real. Sorry for that!!!"

Did Kanye have to have to take some sort of drugs or have some kind of surgery to become as stupid as he is? His I.Q. cannot possibly be higher than 1, and I have no other explanation for why he is such an idiot.
Kanye can justify his actions all he wants - end of day - my low opinion of West has grown even lower just as my respect for Beyonce's classy act towards Swift has grown even higher.
It makes me wonder what kind of substance Kanye West was on last night. I'm surpised he didn't turn it into a white-black issue.
Now I see why he was the target of a South Park episode. Well deserved, apparently.
Wow. Taylor Swift Planned it All!!

Hes a d-bag and always will be.
Hi, I don't think it was planned at all (just replying in the other comment someone said on here) by the look of Taylor Swift because she was in shock like all of us. Beyonce look like uh why he is saying that. Beyonce was nice and gracious enough to let Taylor back on to finish up her speech (MTV didn't let her finish it up at all). It was sad that the first moon man Taylor gets ruin by Kanye. Plus Kanye don't comment in caps of a apology because that is yelling and that is not cool.
Kanye is such an a$$. He's talented but an a$$. Not every single freakin winner on award shows has to be R&B or Hip Hop. Makes me glad that he didn't win a single award to get to go up on stage again. I give major kudos to Beyonce for calling Taylor on stage to finish her thank yous. It's hard to even know if Kanye is even genuine about his apology or just apologized because it made him look back. I don't think he's genuine at all.
I meant to say look bad not back.
Kayne is racist. No doubt about it. If a black artist would have won that award he would of sat there and not said a word. If a white guy would have done what he did to a black female artist there would be people shouting from the rooftops it was racist. Also I'm not white. I'm black and I'm honest. Kayne is a racist pig.
