Prior to the Will Smith x Chris Rock slap at the Oscars, an event at the 2009 VMAs was considered one of the most scandalous in award history: when Kanye took the stage to interrupt Taylor. “Taylor, I’m really happy for you, and I’m gonna let you finish,” he interrupted as Swift was accepting her award for best music video by a woman. This moment sparked a decade of controversy between the two artists, with rebukes by Swift herself, tracks by Kanye, and a potential call-out in Midnights.
