Joe Jackson, Pink, Donald TrumpMore and more celebrities are speaking out publicly about Kanye West’s shine-stealing moment at last night’s MTV Video Music Awards. Here’s what they had to say about the rapper interrupting Taylor Swift’s speech while accepting the Best Female Video award:

Joe Jackson said:
“I don’t know what he was doing, he jumped up on stage and snatched that microphone out of that poor girl’s hand. They should blackball him out of show business for that. He just leapt up there, that was bad. I had just gotten through speaking to him, he was introducing me to his girlfriend, and then three minutes later he jumped up on stage. And people booed Kanye all night.”

Ricky Martin tweeted:
“kanye what an asshole dude.”
“@taylorswift13 has sold more than 10 million cds in the last 2 years u deserve the award 10 million fans cant be wrong. enjoy ur night!”

John Mayer tweeted:
“Big love to my girl @taylorswift13. A class act.

Donald Trump said:
Trump called Kanye’s antics “disgusting,” telling TMZ he wants to boycott all things Kanye “so this kind of thing doesn’t happen again.” He continued, “[Kanye] couldn’t care less about Beyonce. It was grandstanding to get attention.”

P!nk tweeted:
“Kanye west is the biggest piece of shit on earth. Quote me.”
“My heart goes out to taylor swift. She is a sweet and talented girl and deserved her moment. She should know we all love her.”
“Beyonce is a classy lady. I feel for her, too. Its not her fault at all, and her and taylor did their thing. And douche bag got kicked out. HA”

And this morning she appeared live on the “Today Show,” saying that she doesn’t think Kanye would’ve ever attempted to upstage her had she been the one to win the award, but if he did, she would’ve been prepared with brass knuckles. Watch below:

    Real talk, if we want people to respect our craft, we have to respect other people craft likewise. Who cares if its just Kanye being Kanye like he deserves a pass, it still doesn’t give him the right to disrespect. That looks bad on all of us. Let people have their moment and stop dictating like everything begins and ends with u.

    AND NOTICE THAT MOST OF THOSE CELEBRITIES WERE OF A CERTAIN COLOR….SO WHO CARES REALLY

    I agree with C_Franchize, you gotta GIVE respect in order to get it. Now that is being REAL/FAIR!!! Kanye was dead a$$ wrong no matter how you slice it. Every comment stated on this article by other celebs is 100% true. For those riding out on Pink she is that business and has been a successful artist for quite some time and is notorious for speaking her mind as well. Loved her first CD (Can’t Take Me Home) when she was doing R&B. For those that are condoning this bulls#!t will you be supporting his arse when he doesn’t have a career??? People like Donald Trump is where he is for a reason–not only is he WEALTHY but power and influence comes with that wealth. He knows how to “present” himself and presentation is everything. Kanye needs to learn to practice some restraint & self-control…plain and simple. Whether he was speaking the truth is irrelevant. You gotta know how to pick your battles. Since Jay and him are such good friends maybe he can save his boy. Jay-Z is on top of his game for a reason…because not only is he a shrewd business man but extremely savvy when it comes to knowing how to deal with mainstream and put on face!!! Kanye, hasn’t learned that one yet.

    You know you messed up when Joe Jackson says its bad. And Shamel, you’re beyond right. Kanye can be Kanye on his own damn time, he needs to learn he isn’t the only person in the world with an opinion.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Sunshyne_defined/ Sunshyne_defined

    Lol, Kanye ain’t gonna attack someone who might actually respond. A bully always knows who to attack, and who to leave alone. I just WISH that he would go in on someone who would f*ck his @ss up. No one would deserve it more

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Jackiegurl85/ Jackiegurl85

    Do you give props to some one who disrespects your sister, your daughter, your mother, your father, your brother, or your childern? No, that girl worked hard for that and then he has to say beyonce is bette, yes she is to him, maybe not to the others. Everyone has a right to their own thoughts and ideas, but full face disrespect is wrong no matter what color and who you are… If his mom was alive do you think that would have been cool with her? H3LL NO… There is one thing I know about older black woman, dont disrespect a lady no matter what color, be a man, even if the girl is fast or easy you dont do that… learn some respect and grow up….

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/2daTopnonStop/ 2daTopnonStop

    Yeah~ He needs his ass kicked for that~ I don;t dig her music but ON A RESPECT level you don’t do that, PERIOD!

    B was cool for calling her on stage~ WTF was he thinking and what made him think that was ok?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/2daTopnonStop/ 2daTopnonStop

    Kanye needs his tail beat~ really~ That girls daddy shoulda caught Kanye coming outta the VMA and slapped his jawbone straight~ That girl is 19 and he wants to bully (thats what he did when he snatched the mic from her) and steal her shine~ puhlease, I wish a ni88a would~

    So west-coast lemme get this str8…would u be okay with what he did if it were your daughter up there? I bet u would be ready to beat the brakes of his azz then! And regardless of what ANYBODY’S(Kanye West included) opinion is the FACT is that she won the awardand should have had her time to shine and give her acceptance speech without some azzhole running up on stage and bullying her. Let somebody try to come take a mic out of Kanye’s hand while he’s getting an award…I’m sure a fight would ensue! This is a 19-year-old white girl…he should know that white people will be pissed with him. This makes the move all the more stupid! Who does he think buys the majority of his records? WHITE PEOPLE! He does not have the kind of celebrity weight that he thinks he has. There are people in the industry that can cancel his career in an instant. I think he was being opportunistic by picking on a teenage girl to pull that on. Think he would have tried that with 50 Cent? Jay-Z? Dr. Dre? Eminem? I think not! He can tweet all the bulls**t azz apologies he wants to but it does not change the fact that he was 100% wrong!

    Hey they showed Joe Jackson Sharing a(THE SAME) bottle w/ Kanye and Joe now you talk.. how come you didn’t speak AT YOUR SON’S FUNERAL..hmmmmmm!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/producer6tray/ producer6tray

    stink say you comments to KW to his face.. real easy huh! NOT

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SUMMER_SO_FINE/ SUMMER_SO_FINE

    FOR THE RECORD, not to judge, but Joe, Donald and dam PINK should be the LASTTTTTTTT to comment on ANYTHING ANYONE does. Joe, you were the talk of town just last month about how you messed up your dam kids lives and always have been. This young man did admitt to his wrong and apologized. What do you have to say for yourselves. They all have some messed up rep or another.
    Kanye just hold on a little while longer. Soon all this will be forgotten about. Please for the love a God I HOPE you don’t make a dam song about this. IT IS NOT THIS SERIOUS!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/sylkiifeather/ sylkiifeather

    @ west-coast…….i agree…people are not seeing the bigger picture. this level of outrage is uncalled for.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/dster25/ dster25

    All of you all are right, this was blown way out of proportion, its just that AMERIKA dont play about their WHITE women and WHITE little girls.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/mr_postman_09/ mr_postman_09

    If Kanye would’ve done that to Jordan Sparks there would’ve never been this level of outrage but since it was this lil redneck girl everybody acting like this was some great travesty. Kanye was dead wrong but this coverage is disproportionate to the act itself. He may lack tact but he is definitely waaayyy more talented then Pink, Ricky Martin, and every other detractor I saw running their mouth.

    P.s. Shame on Obama, in the wake of all that is going on on the world the last that Negro should be commenting on is the damn music awards.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/sosogood33/ sosogood33

    What the f**k is wrong with u people? This man has been out of control 4 a while remember the out burst at the mtv awards. Hes so stuck on his self he not that great anyway. Why doesnt he just boycot every award show were he doesnt agree with the outcome. O that would’nt work cause he would not get any TV time. What has he really done 4 blks crusading 4 the homeless/police brutality/aids/drug abuse/kids living in poverty.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/RaQuelK2009/ RaQuelK2009

    Isn’t it funny that of all people with an opinion you have Joe Jackson who beat and abused his kids for years stealing not only moments of their lives but years out of their lives turing his youngest ( Michael ) into a freak oh and lets not forget the moments you took and the embrassement you caused when you cheated on your wife bringing that bastartd child in the world who looks just like you with her bananna boat lips looking just like he father and none of your other kids will even acknowledge that she exist. You have pink who lets face it is no role model her self and Trump. I mean your ex-wife took you to the cleaner because you not only took her moment of happiness by cheating on her repeatedly but you taken so much more over time. If you ask me people should think of the inconsiderate things they’ve done living in your glass houses before you start throwing stones at someone else…. Lets clean up our own mess before we get to commenting on Kanye. The boy needs some serious help……

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SweetAngel8098/ SweetAngel8098

    Ok I think Kayne and everybody else gets the point it’s time to let this story go about him and Taylor everybody is making this bigger than what it was, he apologized and she accepted it so move on.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Jouvert/ Jouvert

    When will ppl realize that MTV engineered this publicity stunt to boost VMA ratings.. ? This is still a business ya’ll.. else he would not have been allowed to BYOB to the awards AND be seated so close to the stage.. How many other times have MTV been able to re-run the show so many times for ratings?? Even when Brand hosted last year, business was not as good as it is now… There is prolly a secret cash exchange for Kanye as he is the only believable person that could have pulled this off.. It was an MTV stunt, believe me Kanye’s drunk azz did NOT think that up on his own… lol

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/That_sexy_white_girl/ That_sexy_white_girl

    he was drunk its not the fact shes a white girl i get tired of people saying that s**t its 2009 cant we see past the skin color?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/trisha_369/ trisha_369

    Its funny how these nobodies donald trump,joe jackson, & pink-trying to coming down on Kanye & they really are only talked of when sh*t like this happen otherwise you don’t hear of them & pink your music is wack as hell & the way you sing I see way he left you. joe you need to sit your old a*s down somewhere-you don’t have no room to talk about nobody after the way you did your wife & children you are a big time a*shole. donald trump keep taking your pill & hope you hold out at the playhouse & your show suck. As for Kanye yes he was wrong at that point in time but,look at TRUE FACTS TAYLOR HAS GOTTEN HER MOMENT & THEN SOME & IF IT WASNT FOR KANYE WHO WOULD BE STILL TALKING ABOUT HER NOW? Neeeeeext.
