And by “kind of” I mean “complete and total.” Kanye embarrassed wholesome Taylor Swift in front of millions of viewers last night at the VMAs by hijacking the microphone and proclaiming that she didn’t deserve the award for Best Female Video. You stay classy Kanye! From the Associated Press:

Taylor Swift was relishing her unlikely win of best female video at the MTV Video Music Awards. The 19-year-old knew that the network doesn’t exactly make a habit out of giving their moonman trophies to country music stars.

“I was standing on the stage and I was really excited because I had just won the award,” Swift said after Sunday’s show at Radio City Music Hall. “And then I was really excited because Kanye West was on the stage. And then I wasn’t so excited anymore after that.”

Taking the microphone, the rapper protested Swift’s selection and announced that Beyonce, also nominated, should have won because her “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on it)” was “one of the best videos of all time.”

A stunned Swift staggered and didn’t get to finish her acceptance speech. The crowd booed West, who shortly after was asked to leave the show and left the building.

Of course, backstage, Taylor responded like any normal 19-year-old girl would. She cried. Honestly, the only way Kanye could come off worse in this situation is if he pulled off his mask on stage and revealed that he was actually Hitler.
