Bad boy rapper 50 Cent was in Toronto yesterday where he did an interview with Much Music, Canada's equivalent to MTV.

Of course, he was questioned about his opinion on Kanye West's VMA outburst, where he rudely stole the spotlight from newcomer Taylor Swift.

"I wish he would come take one of my awards, so I could black his eye, in front of everybody." He added that Pink was going to take care of him.

One thing's for certain, we all know who Taylor Swift is now.

50 said no amount of apologizing — which West has now essentially done publicly three times — can balance out what West did to Swift.

"At that point, you can't replace it," 50 added. "Even an apology can't replace what it feels like for the very first time receiving that award. Now in her head, 'My first award was Kanye West.' And it's damaging. I wish he would come take one of my awards so I can black his eye in front of everybody."

it was a strange dichotomy having 50 Cent on MuchOnDemand just now; on one hand, he was all cuddly and charming and smiley. On the other hand, he kinda sorta threatened a beat down. On Kanye.

Taylor deserves the award! She had great songs that give the teen's great model on how to handle and do some stuff at their age. She don't deserve to be treated rudely! Not only did Kanye West act like a complete tool on the Video Music Awards, but there was also the Janet Jackson 2009 VMA Performance. It was indeed a Michael Jackson tribute, with such hits like Thriller, Beat It, and so on – even including Janet performing a duet of Scream along with the video, which she recorded with her brother years ago. Later, Kanye West acted like a complete and total dolt – a vicious dunce and buffoon who ought to be shot out of a cannon. It sounds like it would have been worth personel loans to go to this year'sVideo Music Awards.
