After Taylor Swift's recent hosting gig on Saturday Night Live, in which she took a dig at Kanye West during the show's promo, the jokes continued during last night's Country Music Association Awards (November 11).
Hosts Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley were the first to poke fun at Yeezy when they performed “Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys” during the show’s opener.
"Mama, don't let your babies grow up to be Kanye," they sang. "Let 'em pick guitars and drive 'em ol' trucks. Cowboys have manners, they don't interrupt."
Accepting the Entertainer of the Year award, Swift belted out, "I want to thank every single person in this room tonight for not running up on the stage during this speech."
Even 88-year-old country legend Little Jimmy Dickens got into the act. Paisley, was being praised for his "Welcome to the Future" video by co-host, Carrie Underwood, when the surprisingly spry stage crasher came on to stop the singer's faux speech. "Excuse me! Excuse me sir! I'll let you finish later,” Dickens interjected. “Now Brad Paisley, I know you had a nice video and all that, but Taylor Swift made the best video of all time." The camera immediately panned to Swift laughing in the audience.
As previously reported, West interrupted Swift's MTV Video Music Awards speech back in September when the 19-year-old singer won Best Female Video over Beyonce. He has since been hit with relentless backlash.
