Beyonce Cried and Pink Chewed Out Kanye West After He Interrupted Taylor Swift's 2009 VMAs Speech

On Wednesday, Billboard published an article documenting what went on behind the scenes during one of the most infamous moments in pop culture history.

I would have paid to see Pink tell off Kanye lmao.

Beyonce not feeling pleased that kanye did that and feeling bad and cried for taylor is so beautiful. Queens supporting Queens.

I've never been a fan of Taylor or her music, but this moment still makes my blood boil. Kanye had no right to steal her moment OR to speak for Beyonce. I feel better now that I know Pink got in his face and Beyonce brought T back on stage.

I’m not a fan of both artists. But Kanye west was a pure bullsht.

[inbal]

So he wants to be president and make nation-changing decisions but can't even avoid starting preschool drama because he's displeased with people's choices? I see...

Kanye: *is rude to Taylor and interrupts her speech*
MTV staff: "Sir, we're going to have to ask you to leave."
Kanye: *surprised Pikachu face*

A thirty one year old, humiliating a 19 year old is really pathetic

[ladyofways]

In her documentary, Taylor said she thought that everyone was booing her, not him. I felt so bad

[deerrain]

Kanye’s personality is just so bad. How can he even teach his kids to be nice to other? He himself is a bully.

Do you guys remember when Beyonce skipped Kanye and Kim’s wedding to attend Taylor’s party? Women supporting women ❤️❤️❤️

[TrevenantNights]

Taylor was just 19 at that time. :( :(

[BLamorous]

Here's what went down. Basically, Kanye forgot to take his meds that night.

[anthonybredelberg]

Kanye, you mock Taylor, look what you made her do, she is an artist of the decade.

We will never know what Beyoncé’s speech would have truly been like if it wasn’t for Kanye’s interruption. A true sacrifice what Beyonce gave to Taylor and in the end it squared off 🙂

[irenetexhnolyze]

Pink is my Queen. She’s not afraid of speaking her mind! I’m really glad that there are some celebrities who support each other anyway! Female artists are treated really bad and they should stand for each other.

[nadiagraveran]

I’m shocked that he was shocked about getting kicked out 🤨

[dongheng]

He was lucky it wasn't Scarlett Johansson. She would have kicked him off the damn stage.

[RhondaDeakin]

Pink standing up for fellow Pennsylvania girl Taylor, but Beyonce displayed pure class with her acknowledgment of the incident as well as Taylor's feelings. Beyonce deserved winning best video award that year.

[kungfupanda]

When Kanye said that he was the reason why Taylor got famous, I legit never knew about him until he interrupted taylor

[Aesopartemis]

Kanye tried to win Beyoncé's heart, but Beyonce still married Jay-Z sorry.
