Kanye West's epic apology tweet to Taylor Swift

Kanye West is still feeling bad about ruining Taylor Swift's 2009 VMA acceptance speech and he's posted an epic multi-tweet apology in an attempt to clear his conscience.

Almost a year after interrupting Taylor's moment of triumph to tell her she shouldn't have won, the rapper wrote on Twitter, "I'm sorry, Taylor.”

“We're both artists, and the media and managers are trying to get between us.

"She deserves the apology more than anyone. She had no idea what hit her. She's just a lil girl with dreams like the rest of us. Taylor and her family friends and fans definitely didn't want or need that."

He went on to describe the backlash he faced following his behaviour at the VMAs. "There are people who don't dislike me, they absolutely hate me. People tweeted that they wish I was dead. No, listen. They wanted me to die, people. I carry that."

But the hip-hop star admitted that the episode had allowed him to grow up. "I would never ever again in a million years do that. Sorry to let you down."
