Kanye West apologizes to Taylor Swift

September 14th, 2009 // 150 Comments

Since apologies go back in time and give a 19-year-old girl a chance to redo her first VMA acceptance speech, Kanye West made everything all better by saying sorry to Taylor Swift on his blog. 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! 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!…………….. BEYONCE’S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!! I’M SORRY TO MY FANS IF I LET YOU GUYS DOWN!!!! I’M SORRY TO MY FRIENDS AT MTV. I WILL APOLOGIZE TO TAYLOR 2MRW. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!!! EVERYBODY WANNA BOOOOO ME BUT I’M A FAN OF REAL POP CULTURE!!! NO DISRESPECT BUT WE WATCHIN’ THE SHOW AT THE CRIB RIGHT NOW CAUSE … WELL YOU KNOW!!!! I’M STILL HAPPY FOR TAYLOR!!!! BOOOYAAAWWWW!!!! YOU ARE VERY VERY TALENTED!!! I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME… THAT’S WHAT IT IS!!!!!!! I’M NOT CRAZY YALL, I’M JUST REAL. SORRY FOR THAT!!! I REALLY FEEL BAD FOR TAYLOR AND I’M SINCERELY SORRY!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!!!

Pretty much the only thing I took from this apology is that Kanye knows how to Google Taylor Swift lyrics and say they’re his favorite. Which is impressive considering I assumed he spent most of his time making out with himself in a mirror.

    I’ve had problems with his outbursts since Katrina hit New Orleans. And lets see.. another award ceremony. And then the show he put on after the show stating “GIVE A BLACK MAN A CHANCE”. I’m personally tired of his racist views and think it’s time for him to learn a little humility. Too bad his beloved Momma didn’t kick his ass a few times – maybe he wouldn’t be so damn rude!

    God fuckin damn it. I’ve been on his side for years, after so much dumb shit, because I still liked the music. But after this bullshit, I dont know if I can keep it up, he’s on his own now.

    this is not an apology, this is an example of his own belief of his self-worth. Like this means shit? He ruined her night, poor girl. And how is Beyonce’s video the best of the decade??? “welcome to the real world”??? wtf does that mean?? and when exactly has he been in the real world…the world where you spend years learning to play the guitar and write your own songs and finally get to a point where you are selling more albums then anyone, making videos that win awards…just for some spoilt little prick who makes love to his auto-tune machine to come up and ruin it for you.

    anybody notice that his name is kanye? that isn’t even a real name. it is just 5 letters put together. who made that crap up? did his mother make it up or just was that just the sound she was making while giving birth and the nurse wrote it down as his name. he is a jerkoff – continually. he just needs to be ignored.

    Kanye West already got paid he does not give a shit. kanye West does not have to be decent. Kanye West does not have to be considerate. Kanye West sees Taylor Swift as a white person and not a performer.

    excuse me… but since when is dancing around in a black bathing suit make the best video of this century? i’m lost… i like beyonce but her video was boring… and isnt this an award for the video?
    and i think kayne is really making fun of taylor in that “apology”. that really was stupid. he was saying she should have given up her award to beyonce? how does he live with himself?
    pink really should have bitch slapped him. and thank you beyonce for showing some class, even after that whoreriffic performance… sheesh i think i saw her ovaries.

    I think Taylor should start a racial issue here. Because I know for damn sure if it was the other way around, Kanye would have Sharpton, the Black President we have and all other Black’s against Taylor right now. Hell this would be Top Story on CNN. Just remember, had it been the other way around this would be a WAY bigger story.

  40. Kanye's a Prick | September 14, 2009 at 9:25 am

    The best part of this “apology” is the fact that although Beyonce ended up winning Video of the Year, a better award than what Taylor won, and Kanye is STILL saying how much better Beyonce’s video was, thus making him an even bigger asshole than he already was after last night. He’s actually DEFENDING his actions when Taylor won even AFTER Beyonce won Video of the Year??? I knew Kanye was a tool long before now, but really seals the deal. I hope this ends his career. He doesn’t deserve it anymore, the whiny little bitch. I hope Beyonce takes her moon man and shoves it straight up Kanye’s ass. If only Kanye wasn’t so stupid, he could learn so much about class and humility from Beyonce. What a wonderful human being that woman is.

    This “apology” is only happening because someone from his label is threating to pull the plug on his joke of a career.

    Like many of you here in his board, I hope this stunt ruins Kanye for good. He just shows too much immaturity and unprofessionalism.

    I love how at the end of his 13-year-old-girl rant, he says how he’s not crazy. All evidence to the contrary, moron. All evidence to the contrary.

    And would it kill this guy to take a fucking writing class?
