Pink: 'Kanye West Is The Biggest Piece Of Sh*t On Earth'

September 14, 2009
Pink: 'Kanye West Is The Biggest Piece Of Sh*t On Earth'Pink has described Kanye West as the “biggest piece of shit on earth” after he stormed the stage at the MTV Video Music Awards in New York.

The rapper grabbed the microphone from Taylor Swift to complain that she had triumphed in the Best Female Video Prize category over Beyonce.

West, who has since apologised, was booed by large sections of the crowd, while Beyonce looked visibility shocked by the rapper's reaction.

In a message on Twitter, Pink, who was in the audience, wrote: “Kanye west is the biggest piece of shit on earth. Quote me.”

She added later: “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.”

Katy Perry, who was also at the ceremony in New York, wrote on her Twitter page: “FUCK U KANYE. IT'S LIKE U STEPPED ON A KITTEN.”

As previously reported, West said sorry to Swift in a message on his blog this morning.

But he still appeared upset that Beyonce's video for 'Single Ladies' had failed to beat the singer's 'You Belong To Me'.
