Kanye West Returning To The VMAs

According to recent reports,Kanye West is set to make a triumphant return to the MTV Video Music Awards this year.UsWeekly.com is reporting that the Midwest rapper will perform during the award ceremony on September 12.

West, 33, made headlines last year after he interrupted country-pop singer Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech for the Best Female Video award during the event. After taking the microphone from the teen star, he famously uttered the words: “Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you and I’mma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time!”

At first everyone assumed it as another one of MTV’s staged incidents but the network came out later and denied being involved. West went on the Jay Leno Show and apologized to fans and Taylor for his behavior and announced that he would be taking some time away from the public eye to re-group and up until a few weeks ago, he has kept an extremely low-profile.

West is now prepping for the release of his new album though, which will reportedly be titled Dark Twisted Fantasy. The lead single Power just hit airwaves and the video for the track was premiered by MTV.

He sent out a tweet thanking the network for airing the video and giving him another chance. “Thank you MTV [for putting]Power right after your #1 show,” he wrote. “I feel the love! And thanks for the 2nd, I mean 3rd, ok, 4thchance!!!”

Alicia Keys, Jay-Z, 30 Seconds To Mars, Usher, Pink, and Katy Perry are also scheduled to perform at the VMA awards.
