Alicia Keys Comments On Lil Mama & Kanye West VMA Incidents

Alicia Keys visited the ‘Today’ show on Wednesday (September 16), talking with Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford about the MTV Video Music Awards and her new album. Asked about Lil Mama stepping on stage while she was performing ‘Empire State of Mind’ at Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards with Jay-Z, Keys responded, “We can appreciate her being overwhelmed and inspired, but we would have appreciated it if she would have did it from her seat.”

As for that other higher profile on-stage interruption involving Taylor Swift and Kanye West, Keys said, “I think that obviously he knew that wasn’t in the best taste, in retrospect. I think he realized that wasn’t quite the right thing to do.”
