Kanye West has made another apology to Taylor Swift for his behavior on Sunday night’s MTV Video Music Awards — this time on the premiere of The Jay Leno Show. Leno was not scheduled to interview ‘Ye Monday since the rapper was just on the show to perform with Jay-Z and Rihanna. However, West asked for the opportunity to talk about taking the microphone away from Taylor during her acceptance speech for Best Female Video to proclaim the superiority of Beyonce’s video. After West expressed regret over what he did, Leno asked him what his late mother would think of his actions at the awards show. Kanye replied, “Obviously, I deal with hurt. So many celebrities never take the time off. … I need to, after this, take the time off to analyze how I’m going to make it through the rest of this life, how I’m going to improve. I am a celebrity, and that’s something I have to deal with. If there’s anything I can do to help Taylor in the future — or help anyone — I’d like to.”
