“I was really excited because I had won the award and then I was excited because Kanye West was on the stage and then I wasn’t so excited anymore. “I thought I couldn’t love Beyoncé more - and then tonight happened,” Swift said backstage. Swift completed her night of glory when Beyoncé won Video of the Year - then invited the country star on stage to complete her speech. The 19-year-old singer was back in the spotlight moments later with a performance of the winning hit that started on an F train at Bryant Park and ended atop a yellow cab outside Radio City. She tried to finish her speech - but MTV had already killed the mike and moved to the next act. Swift, who scored the upset victory with “You Belong With Me,” appeared shaken. “I sing country music, so thank you so much for giving me the chance to win a VMA award,” the songstress said seconds before West stole her thunder. “One of the best videos of all time!”īefore West rudely interrupted, Swift thanked fans for embracing her. “Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!” the rap star blathered as boos filled the hall.

Swift was giving her acceptance speech after copping the award for Best Female Video when West stormed onto the Radio City Music Hall stage, stole the microphone and dissed the beautiful young songbird, declaring that Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies ” should have won. An apparently drunk Kanye West callously stole the spotlight from country superstar Taylor Swift last night, moments after she won at the MTV Video Music Awards.
