Right PR Tactics in VMA 2009

I knw VMA is just passed...and this time i promise will not just talk about Britney (Yeah, she won the Best Pop Video for Womanizer)

The interest part was when Taylor Swift accepted her 1st time ever moonman for Best Female Video for You Belong to Me. I thought it was a joke when Kanye West showed up on the MTV Video Music Awards stage next to Taylor, right in the middle of her acceptance speech for the award.

"It was the first Moon Man for the 19-year-old country starlet, who has become an equally huge star in the pop world.

"I always dreamed about what it would be like to win one of these one day," Taylor said with surprise. "I never thought it would happen."

As Taylor continued, Kanye interrupted, saying he thought Beyonce's "Single Ladies" video was wrongly overlooked. "Hey Taylor, I'm really happy for you, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time."

Taylor looked humiliated. I felt humiliated for her. The audience booed him, and gave her a standing ovation. That's what i say, the audience has the power to influence the media~

I didn't expect Taylor to win that award, as i love to have Britney to win it. However, bum-rushing the stage wasn't the appropriate time and place to express his disagreement.

Not only was Kanye's approach disrespectful, it was especially disrespectful because it was directed towards a woman--a teenage girl, actually. Taylor won't turn 20 until December. I can only imagine how her father feels. I'm sure he would like to have a talk to Kanye.

Kanye is a guest at the MTV Video Music Awards. He does not determine the winners. The winners are determined by popular vote.

Pink commented about her annoyance with Kanye. "Kanye West is the biggest piece of shit on earth. Quote me," she wrote. "My heart goes out to Taylor Swift. She is a sweet and talented girl, and deserved her moment. She should know we all love her." How lovely Pink is~

Im ,surely, stand by Taylor....She handled it gracefully. The audience countered him by giving her a standing ovation, and booed Kanye throughout the night whenever his name was mentioned.

Fortunately, Taylor got another chance to complete her acceptance speech. When Beyonce accepted the Best Video Award for "Single Ladies," she invited Taylor back on stage.

"Wow, this is amazing," Beyonce said when receiving her award. "I remember being 17-years-old and up for my first MTV award with Destiny's Child. It was one of the most exciting moments in my life. So, I'd like for Taylor to come out and have her moment."

Taylor then joined Beyonce on stage and recited her acceptance speech, only making a subtle reference to the incident. Before rattling off her special thanks, she said, "Maybe we can try this again."

I must say here, Beyonce, u have a good PR tactic with you...at least audience with you, but kanye, sorry lar, bad bad PR tactic....u wan call me to handle your crisis?? Nah, i wont do that oso...
