Ok…So I’m sure by now you might have heard or seen something about the incident that transpired at last night’s VMA’s between Kanye West and Taylor Swift. I was so disgusted that I had to sound off about it!
I must first make the connection between Taylor and Disney…this is after all a Disney Blog. (Mind you, I have to thank my Tweenage Daughter for the knowledge I am about to grace you with.) Besides dating a Joans Brother and having her songs plastered all over Radio Disney…Taylor also made a cameo in “Hannah Montana: The Movie”. There…now we have the connection…on to the rant!
As a mom of a girl who will soon be a teenager, I felt deeply saddened for the humiliation West put Swift through. If you haven’t seen the video yet, take a look at this…
Yes…that was a grown man jumping up onto the stage, ripping the mike out of a teenagers hands and stealing a moment in time that she might have never forgotten. Now she might just as well want to forget that humiliating moment in time, although modern technology will not allow it. Props to everyone in the audience who “Booed” West and stood up to give “Swift” a standing ovation! Poor Beyonce looked embarrassed and had no idea how to react to a sort-of backhanded complement. She more than made up for it later on that night. Watch…
I had to shed some light on West’s asinine actions. Beyonce was very gracious in her reaction, as was Swift. I wonder if West will meet the same backlash as the now banished Dixie Chicks met when Natalie Maines denounced the President’s actions to an All-Country, All-American loving crowd of fans. Country Radio put the kabash on all of their songs, refusing to play them. I hope Kanye West meets the same fate! Boycott Kanye West!
Until Next Time,
P.S. I would love to know your thoughts! Please sounds off in the Comments Section below!
