Beyonce Knowles, perhaps the other victim of Kanye West’s MTV Video Music Awards outburst, has finally spoken up about the incident.  Poised and graceful in her comments, Beyonce reveals that before the winner was announced, Kanye told her there was no way she could lose.  And then she did.

Beyonce Knowles.

What happened after that was merely the unraveling of a devoted friend with good intentions and poor execution.  Beyonce finally addressed the issue while attending the Billboard magazine’s annual Women in Music event saying:

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.’  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.

Beyonce continues to be such a star in light of the situation, handling it with poise and grace.  She could have condemned her friend, but she simply stated the most basic of facts, Kanye West felt very powerfully about the award and suffered from a lack of judgment when he went up on stage.  In his effort to defend Beyonce he forced himself to look like the Big Bad Wolf, attacking innocent Taylor Swift.

What do you think about Beyonce’s statement?  Should she have admonished Kanye like everyone else or was she more professional for sticking with the middle ground and stating the facts of the evening?  Let us know in the comments!
