Kanye was way out of line interrupting Taylor Swifts acceptance speech. That was her moment to shine and he had to jump in and steal it and say that Beyonce had the best video. Beyonce obviously felt he crossed the line too by giving up her award speech to have Taylor come back out and redo her acceptance speech. Beyonce didn't have to give up her speech but felt it was her place because she remembered giving her first acceptance speech with destiny's child and she knew how exciting it was.
MTV does not provide us with a needed service. If anything MTV corrupts the minds of adolescents. MTV used to only have music videos and have shows centered around music which I wasn't against. The only thing I would suggest is for parents to stop having their young children watch music videos because it teaches them provocative dance moves and profanity. But today if you turn to the MTV channel you can't even find music half the time. They show reality shows such as 16 and pregnant, The Hills, The City, Is She Really Going Out With Him, and many more. So many people follow these shows and can't wait for the next week episode. It's sad that so many people fill their heads with the nonsense in these shows of other people's lives which aren't even true. If you gave a test to Americans about the government and then one about MTV shows and artists i guarantee they will be able to answer all the questions about MTV and only a few about the government.
As a teacher for middle school students, I believe that most of the students watch MTV and know the latest gossip of the celebrities. Middle school students are so easily swayed and always want to be like the cool kids. They look up to artists and watch all the television shows. Alot of kids look up to Kanye and may get the impression that jumping into someone else's spotlight is acceptable or even cool.
