Sweet Dreams singer Beyonce has spoken out about the MTV Video Music Awards incident with Kanye West.
Kanye, 32, jumped on stage when Taylor Swift, 19, won the VMA for Best Female Video and said that Beyonce, who was also nominated, had “one of the best videos of all time”.
Beyonce recently attended Billboard magazine’s annual Women in Music event, where she was named Woman of the Year.
Beyonce said after accepting the gong: “Well, I knew his intentions, and I knew he was standing up for art; and he told me before, when they said the nominees, he’s like: ‘You have this award.’”
She added: “And when they didn’t call my name he was, like, completely shocked. And when he walked on the stage, I was like: ‘No, no, no!’ And then he spoke, and I was like: ‘Oh, no, no, no!’
“But in the end, it ended up being a great night, and Taylor Swift did get her moment – and I didn’t have to make an acceptance speech.”
