This is a bit unexpected. Youd think that after Kanye stage crashed her acceptance speech at the 2009 VMAs, that Taylor would want to forget the whole embarrassment as soon as possible. But instead, shes embraced it as a life lesson. She has a photo of the Kanye incident hanging in her living room, in a decorative frame. Underneath the photo, she wrote the following words: Life is full of little interruptions. Its a wry, if not hilarious take on an extremely awkward situation. But fortunately, Taylor and Kanye have buried any animosity since that fateful day at the VMAs; they were spotted laughing and posing for pictures at the 2015 Grammys, and later on, they were also spotted having lunch together in Manhattan. Is a musical collaboration around the corner? We can only hope.
