Stepping on Kittens at the VMAs

I rarely watch MTV, since they don't seem to really have either music or videos. And I've never watched much of the VMA's (Video Music Awards) because of all the screaming and lack of proper attire, but you know what, I'm glad somebody was, and taped this moment.
Taylor Swift, who is arguably one of the cutest, most wholesome young talents in all of music, won the Best Female Video Award, and while giving her erstwhile "I wanna thank my Mom, Kindergarten teacher, parole agent, hairdressers, accountants, piano tuners, etc." acceptance speech (called "A-sept" by insiders) she was rudely interrupted by Kanye "I'm friggin KOHN -YAY!" West, who stole her microphone and her moment, saying Beyonce's video was "one of the best of all time!"
Boos of all sorts ensued, and West was escorted from the Area Code by security guys with names like Boscoe, Bullet and Buff.
Kanye is an over-rated, apparently drunkard punk, and still babbles in his blog about how hot Beyonce's vid is. So?
Maybe the bottle let him down, maybe his head swelled thirty times too big for his shoulders. Maybe he needs to spend some time in the corner with his face against the wall, after writing "I will not interrupt country musicians who win awards."
But it all ends well, as the video shows. Kudos to Beyonce, who later won a VMA for best video, and invited the fetching Ms. Swift - now wearing a red baby doll dress - back onstage to "get her moment."
I am now officially a Beyonce fan, and will heat my home next month with Kanye West discs, T-shirts, and all things "KOHN -YAY!"
Katy "kissed a girl" Perry had the quote of the day afterword, calling Kanye's actions the equivalent of "Stepping on a kitten!" I smell a duet with Beyonce, and K. Perry as a guest, maybe?
Hmm, they need a producer..."Hey, Kanye, you know anybody who can produce this dynamic trio? Kanye? You there, Kanye?"
"I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you. Did you want fries with that?"

And what a coincidence that Kanye was scheduled to be on the opening of Jay Leno's new show the very next night, eh? Must have given Leno a nice boost.
