MTV Video Music Awards: Kanye Crashes Taylor Swift's Speech

Kanye West rips the microphone from singer Taylor Swift's grasp as she accepts the "Best Female Video" award. "Yo Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'm a let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time," Kanye told the audience at Radio City Music Hall. West, who was booed at the VMAs, later emotionally apologized for the outburst on The Jay Leno Show.
