Pada tanggal 13 September 2009, [[Taylor Swift]] memenangkan salah satu piala [[MTV]] Video Awards 2009 dengan kategori Best Female Video. Saat akan mengucapkan pidato terima kasihnya, tiba-tiba West langsung naik ke panggung dan merebut mikrofon yang sedang dipegang oleh Swift. "Selamat atas kemenanganmu, tetapi [[Beyoncé]] tetap mempunyai video terbaik. Videonya adalah salah satu video terbaik sepanjang masa," ujar West dengan nada menyindir Swift. Swift sendiri malah kebingungan dengan kejadian itu, sedangkan Beyoncé terlihat ''shock''. Setelah itu, seluruh penonton dalam acara tersebut, termasuk selebriti yang namanya ada di dalam nominasi Best Female Video, seperti [[Pink (penyanyi)|Pink]], [[Katy Perry]], dan [[Lady Gaga]], sontak menyoraki Kanye untuk turun dari panggung.
