KANYE WEST TO GET SPECIAL VIDEO MUSIC AWARD

NEW YORK (AP) _ This time, Kanye West won’t be tempted to snatch the microphone from the person who wins a special Video Music Award this year. That’s because he’s the guy getting it. West will be presented with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award Sunday night. Back in 2009, West famously bum-rushed Taylor Swift and took her microphone after she won a VMA, declaring the honour should have gone to Beyonce, instead.
