a lesson for the rest of us

so somehow i missed these two videos until this evening – kanye west interrupting  taylor swift as she accepts the best female video award at this year’s mtv video music awards – ouch!

taylor swift’s best female video acceptance at mtv’s vma 2009 awards

what i wasn’t aware of is how gracious beyonce’s acceptance speech was in acknowledging taylor and giving her a chance to finish what was cut short.

when stars act selfless – now that’s just cool.
