Kanye West is known for speaking his mind and early on during the VMAs, he didn't disappoint.

When Taylor Swift won Best Female Video for 'You Belong With Me,' Kanye jumped onstage, grabbed the mike from the country singer's hands and did what he does best.

"Yo Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'm a [sic] let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time," he yelled, to many boos. Swift had beat Beyonce's 'Single Ladies' for the award. And according to an MTV source, Kanye is getting booted from the show for his actions. Watch It Happen

When the camera panned to the 'Ladies' hitmaker, Jay-Z's wife looked visibly mortified. Meanwhile, Swift stood silently on the stage.

To make matters worse, Swift had to perform the song shortly after Kanye's outburst.

Later on in the show, 'Single Ladies' was named Best Video of the Year, and when Beyonce accepted the award, she called Taylor on stage.

"I'd like for Taylor to come out and have her moment," she told the audience, allowing Swift to give her speech.

"Maybe we could try this again?" Taylor asked, and proceeded to give many thanks.

The United States Of America is not a country of free speech because if that was the case kanye'S opinion would matter. Kanye was thinking what alot of people were probably thinking. But he just had the gutes to say it infront of everybody at the wrong time. SO STOP SAYING THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICAN IS WERE YOU HAVE FREEDOM TO SPEAK BECAUSE IT IS NOT!

A typical ignorant rapper. Glad he got booted.

Taylor Swift is so classy and it is so sad to see someone ruin her moment. No points for Kanye

By Gayle

I never liked Kenye, now I really can not stand him. He ruined Taylor's moment. He should never be invited back to the MTV VMA ever again.

By froggyssb

I doubt he was invited. I am sure he just slithered in.

By stennie

TO GAYLE: I AGREE WITH YOU I NEVER LIKED HIM EITHER AND I NEVER BOUGHT ANY OF HIS MUSIC.I NEVER LIKED HIM FROM DAY ONE.

By Joe Prucha

Kanye - Crowned himself tonight at the VMA's as "THE KING OF JERKS"! What an embarassment to the 2009 VMA show as it is a show dedicated to the memory of Michael Jackson. Kanye - you have NO class!
