Tay Lautner (née Dome) was recently left speechless after her husband Taylor Lautner commented about his ex-girlfriend and singer Taylor Swift. This happened during the second episode of their podcast ‘The Squeeze’. Tay asked the actor if he could go back to one moment in his life, which one would it be and why. Lautner responded with ‘probably the 2009 VMAs’.
For the uninitiated, the actor and the ‘Midnights‘ star were in a short-lived relationship in 2009. Lautner presented the award for Best Female Video, along with Shakira, on the ill-fated night of VMAs in 2009, when Kanye West went up on the stage and interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech after winning Best Female Video over Beyoncé.

While elaborating on the VMAs, Taylor Lautner said that he was unaware that the Kanye West thing was ‘not a skit’ for the show. Tay responded by saying that she was ‘deceased’ and laughed at his response. She even asked if the answer was preplanned to which Lautner said, “Of course”. He went on to say that he couldn’t hear or see whatever was happening and that he assumed that it was a rehearsed skit that was supposed to be amusing for the crowd. He clarified that only after seeing Swift’s upset face did he realize that something was wrong and that he should have said something. Swifties around the world were exhilarated by his response and even loved Tay Lautner’s reaction to it.
For the unversed, West went up the stage, took the mic from Swift, and declared that Beyoncé was the one who deserved the award for Best Female Video. The audience booed in response to him and he was subsequently removed from the show for the same. Later while accepting her award for the Video of the Year, Beyoncé called up Swift to continue and complete her abrupt acceptance speech.
