Taylor -- Beyonce 'Immediately' Reached Out

Posted Sep 14th 2009 4:10PM by TMZ Staff

Taylor -- Beyonce 'Immediately' Reached OutAs soon as the VMAs ended, Beyonce Knowles wasted no time distancing herself from Kanye West's infamous hissy fit -- we're told Bey's camp almost "immediately" approached Taylor Swift to make sure she was okay.

Taylor's rep tells us Beyonce's father Mathew Knowles approached Taylor outside her dressing room once her subway car performance was over.

We're told Mathew wanted to make sure Taylor was doing fine after West's diss -- and they even discussed ways to make up for it.

Taylor's rep tells us the singer was mainly upset because she wasn't able to thank her fans for voting for her -- which was eventually made right when Beyonce invited her back on stage to finish what she started.

Taylor's reps tell us she had never met Beyonce or Kanye before the last night's weirdness went down.

1. Anybody else officially bored with this story?? I think the country has more important things to fret over.

2. You are quite a lady Taylor. You handled yourself well with Joe Jonas and now this. I love to see a young lady with so much class. Kayne made an extremely bad move. Definitely. I love love love Taylor Smith and think she is a great kid and sweet role model for my 14 year old. I also like Kayne and feel he too is extremely talented My Ego rocks! The problem is that he is sick of MTV giving out awards to artist who are not the best one for the award. Case being he gave his own award once to who all knew was probably more deserving. HE IS NOT A BAD guy. This had nothing to do with Taylor Swift it could have been lady gaga or any of the others and he would have felt the same way. He just is not like most who sit back and say nothing. Now had it been any older more experienced artists he would been told off right there rightfully so but Taylor is a nice girl who was enjoying that moment of a dream come true and he blew it for her and she will never get it back. He should promote her music and offer to work with her for free that may touch on the apology she deserves. If that was my little sis I would be after him too. Kayne sweetie you mean well truly but just be careful when and where you speak and express your rightful thoughts! DO go above and beyond to make this up to TAYLOR and quit expecting MTV to change their award giving process this been going on for years before you got there!

5. Kanye, this is Momma...
Child what the world is wrong with you? I thought when I died purposely so you could win some sympathy after being continuously actin a foo, you would shape up. Buts you has not. Your father warned me that I was holding and hugging you too much.

Kanye son, you are a barrel of assholes in one body and Momma is ashamed how you treat that little Taylor Swifter girl. And what is wrong with that zombie looking bald headed girlfriend of yours? You know damn right Momma West would not approve of such trash for my baby boy.

Well ain't no apology you can give that will make up for your lack of class. Drinking a bottle of Hennessy, showing off like a big effin hot shot retard...boy you have embarrassed me here in heaven. The Lord threatened to kick me out and put me in limbo.

Times like these you make me glad Kanye, that my Uterus is decomposing.

Respectfully Disappointed,

Mama D. West

7. Pink said it best. Kanye is a tool and a waste.

I've deleted his songs from my ipod and he won't get any more of my cash. I know my petty cash isn't a loss to him...but he lost a fan. Probably more than one. That should mean something if he truly cares about his fan base.

8. When the hoe wasn't dead kanyes hoe mother used to toss salad of wandering mexicans in the back room bodegas of brooklyn for twenty cents an hour, now that the bitch is dead let's Kick Kanyes Ass.
Let's get violent against kanye. Who would care.

9. What a lack of disrespect! No one "stage hogged" him when he has won or when he paid tribute to his mother and he should give others the same courtesy. Can we say "mangina"?

13. LOOK HERE "EVERYBODY", TAYLOR DIDN'T HAVE THE #1 VIDEO, BUT SHE WON
ANYWAY, PLUS KANYE GAVE HER ADDITIONAL SHINE UNTIL NEXT YEAR.

WHAT MORE COULD SHE ASK FOR, KANYE GAVE TAYLOR MORE SHINE THAN IF SHE
HAD WENT HOME AFTER THE AWARDS, AND NO ONE WOULD HAVE GIVEN TWO CENTS
ABOUT THE GIRL AFTER LAST NIGHT IF KANYE HAD NOT DID WHAT HE DID.

HELL I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHO SHE WAS BEFORE LAST NIGHT!!




Posted at 4:20PM on Sep 14th 2009 by KANYE STRETCHED TAYLORS 15 MINUTES

14. Not that Kanye wasn't rude but it was MTV that cut her off. He gave the mic back to her right after he finished his "statement" so if she was upset about not thanking her fans, that was MTV.
