Lady Gaga defends Kanye West’s stage invasion at MTV VMA

London, Oct 1 (ANI): Lady Gaga has jumped to the defence of rapper Kanye West for his stage invasion during the MTV VMAs, insisting that “everybody makes mistakes”.
West, 32, had callously snatched the microphone off Taylor Swift as she embarked on her Best Female Video acceptance speech at the VMAs, and stated that Beyonce deserved to win the award.
But Lady GaGa, who hits the road with West on their Fame Kills tour in November, puts the incident down to a moment of madness - one that is far from a true reflection of the hip-hop star’s personality.
“He’s a good guy and everybody makes mistakes, and he feels so f****** bad. He really does,” the Sun quoted her as saying.
And the Poker Face singer is adamant the vendetta against West now needs to be dropped.
“Everyone likes to focus on gossip, but he’s changed music and he’s really prolific and an incredible person, and I think it’s unfair to judge somebody on one mistake they’ve made,” she said.
“That moment really portrayed him in a way that he really isn’t. It was just a random moment,” she added. (ANI)
