Kanye West and Taylor Swift Grammy Story: 'Only One' Rapper Takes Happy Photos With '1989' Singer, WIfe Kim Kardashian & Jay Z at Grammy Awards 2015 [Pics]
During a break in the 57th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony on Sunday, Kanye West, 37, and Taylor Swift, 25, spoke and it appears the two recording artists have reconciled, reports Hollywood Life.
Tension between the recording artists started in 2009 when Swift received the MTV VMA Best Female Video award for "You Belong With Me" and West stormed the stage, snatched the microphone from a bewildered Swift mid-speech and declared, "I'm really happy for you, I'm gonna let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time." The camera panned to a shocked Beyoncé before returning its focus on Swift who was nearly in tears. West hopped off stage as boos arose from the audience.
Despite the public diss from West, Swift managed to shake it off and finish the night with a fantastic VMA performance when she shimmied from a station train of fans to the hood of a taxi cab outside Radio City Music Hall while singing "You Belong With Me."
In the past six years, West and Swift said little about the incident or to each other.
In a 2013 interview with the New York Times, West discussed the 2009 incident with Swift.
"It's only led me to complete awesomeness at all times. It's only led me to awesome truth and awesomeness. Beauty, truth, awesomeness. That's all it is. I don't have one regret. If anyone's reading this waiting for some type of full-on, flat apology for anything, they should just stop reading right now," Kanye told the New York Times.
But West had apologized to Swift on his blog shortly after the incident. When asked why he apologized, West said, "I have, as a human being, fallen to peer pressure."
It seems, as they say, time heals all wounds. In a show of solidarity, West and Swift were photographed together at the 2015 Grammys, suggesting the two have settled their differences.
