The unexpected on-air moment rendered Swift understandably speechless, and when the cameras panned to Beyoncé, she seemed pretty shook. Imma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!" Shortly after Swift began to give her acceptance speech, West jumped up on stage, grabbed her microphone, and proceeded to say, "Yo, Taylor, I'm really happy for you. Swift ended up winning the award, and then. Among those artists were Beyoncé' (for "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)") and Taylor Swift (for "You Belong To Me"). OK, so, you remember - or at least have heard about - the now infamous "Kanye Interrupts/Imma Let You Finish" debacle, right? Back in 2009, a whole slew of worthy women were nominated in the Best Female Video category.

Not only that, but her reaction apparently perpetuated yet another memorable moment from at the end of the show. According to a new oral history from Billboard, Beyoncé's reaction to Kanye West interrupting Taylor Swift at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards was way more emotional than what viewers actually saw go down on-screen. It resulted in shock, awe, confusion, outrage, and apparently, some unexpected tears from one celebrity, in particular. My friends, this year marks the 10-year anniversary of a monumentally dramatic moment in pop culture.
