Singer Taylor Swift used her hosting gig on “Saturday Night Live” to poke fun at her VMA fiasco with Kanye West and rumors that she’s dating “Twlight” star Taylor Lautner, EW.com reports.

During her opening monologue, Swift picked up a guitar and sang “Monologue Song (La La La),” where she said she wouldn’t “comment” on whether she’s “dating the werewolf from ‘Twlight’” but then mouthed “Hi Taylor” and blew a kiss.  Shortly after, she sang “You might be expecting me to say something bad about Kanye” but said she wouldn’t since she had “security lining the stage.”

Swift also slipped in a few jibes towards her ex, Joe Jonas, reminding viewers that he broke up with her on the phone and reminding him that she’s “doing real well.”

The opener ended with Swift saying “We have a great show and Kanye West is NOT here.”

Tweeters sounded off on both the monologue and Swift’s performance throughout the rest of the show, as “SNL” and ‘Taylor Swift” sat on the Trending Topics list:

1. 
   SaritaPagita How cute is taylor swift on snl? So cute! I’m girl crushing on her.
2.

Lady Gaga won’t be letting Kanye West’s sudden departure from their “Fame Kills” tour stop her from heading out on her own. According to Billboard.com, the “Love Game” singer will “be embarking on her own headlining tour soon, and West plans to drop out of the spotlight.”

Gaga told reporters at the Billboard Music Awards the decision for West to drop out was mutual and she would be going on tour herself in the coming weeks.

Lori Ann Gibson, Gaga’s longtime choreographer told fans via Twitter that “creative differences” between the Gaga and West led to the tour’s abrupt demise.

Fans reacted to the news:

1. 
   abcdeeeeeee Lady gaga had creative differences w kanye? What a shock! Haha
2. 
   RobertJohnSings How convenient that the Kanye/Lady Gaga tour was cancelled over “creative differences”? Lmao!

8. 
   ZEEnon Lady GaGa and Kanye West aren’t touring together anymore due to “creative differences”. Yeah right, Lady GaGa totally ditched Kanye.
9. 
   jlo_roberto OMG no fame kills tour sadly

The cancellation announcement from Live Nation comes days after both stars released the tour dates. Live Nation will issue refunds for tickets.

The sudden change is adding to West’s negative publicity, which most recently came following an altercation with country singer Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards. West appeared on stage during Swift’s acceptance speech for Best Female Video and interrupted the starlet saying Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” video was more deserving of the award. After the backlash West received, he apologized and said he planned to take some time off.

The MTV Video Music Awards are usually filled with memorable–and controversial–moments and last night’s was no exception. As Taylor Swift started to accept her award for Best Female Video (”You Belong With me”), Kanye West ran onstage, grabbed the mic, and said he believed Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” deserved the award.  Swift looked shocked and saddened as the crowd booed.

Beyonce, who ended up taking home the top prize for Video fo the Year, gave her spotlight over to Swift so she could finish her acceptance speech.

West later apologized via his blog before the awards show even ended, according to EW.com. He called Swift “very talented” and said that he was “in the wrong.”

Related terms such as “Kanye,” “Taylor Swift” and “VMAs” have remained in Trending Topics for more than 12 hours.  Most tweeters say West’s behavior towards Swift was rude, but a few backed the rapper, while others are wondering if it was a publicity stunt:

1. 
   boomchie kanye west has been a TOTAL JERK. Taylor Swift deserved this award. not saying beyonce didnt but come on she was about to have one neway..
2. 
   KelseyEaton Aahahhah I freakin love Kanye. He’s mental.,but I’m gonna rep him til the day I die. Plus…..I don’t like Taylor Swift. So thumbs up Yeezy.
3. 
   Goldiemakeupart Kanye finally “apologized” to Taylor Swift on his blog. Next time he should blog his opinions & keep his mouth shut at the actual venue!
4. 
   brandage just watched what kanye did to taylor swift at the VMAs. wtf is wrong with him? i’m by no means a fan of hers, but she did not deserve that.
5. 
   EPancratz Taylor Swift absolutely deserves her award. If this is the only way Kanye can get the spotlight, his career in music needs to be over.
6. 
   bruntster No one would be talking about Taylor Swift today if it weren’t for Kanye.
7. 
   rebeaguilar I’m appalled by Kanye’s outburst. Beyonce got mayor points for letting Taylor Swift get her moment. Both these women are great performers!
8. 
   anniea89 crap. Kanye’s valid point has gotten lost in mix. Taylor Swift needs to go away somewhere far and not come back.

1. 
   joshLOTCHO omg. cant believe kanye, is he thick or something? inexcusable what he did. #TeamTaylor!
2. 
   maizamaiza #TeamTaylor not really a fan but kanye’s a douchebag!
3. 
   thedandyproject I dislike Taylor Swift, but last night’s episode puts me on #TeamTaylor.
4. 
   eternitygrl I cannnot believe what Kanye West did to Taylor Swift @ the VMA Awards last night ! That was not cool !
5. 
   JillianBlackman I don’t like Kanye’s music enough to condone what he did. No one thinks he is as good as he does. I hope he fails from here on out.
6. 
   MilanZoe1 Day after VMA’s & I’m still on it. Wondering if Kanye’s outburst was staged…. Media literacy muchh ?
7. 
   angielyne I also feel that were Kanye’s mother alive she would have been exponentially mortified at the way her son acted and has been acting!!
8. 
   feberiri if Kanye’s act was VMA gimmick, well then, VMA must be really really desperate…

According to a press release from MTV, the MTV Video Music Awards– which airs Sunday, September 13 at 9pm EST–will feature a much-sought-after trailer: “This Is It,” the Michael Jackson documentary that chronicles the last 3 months of his life.

“This Is It” depicts Jackson getting ready for his 50 sold-out London shows at the O2 Arena and will reportedly show a side of Jackson that no one had seen in a decade.

In addition to the “This Is It” trailer premiere, Jackson’s sister Janet will open the awards show with a tribute performance to her older brother.

The Twitterverse is heavily anticipating this event, and MTV is looking to get the highest ratings ever for the VMAs in the wake of this major loss to the music industry.

The 2009 Video Music Award nominations, announced yesterday, suggest a competition to see which female pop star can rack up the most wins at the Sept. 13 ceremony.

According to MTV.com, Lady Gaga and Beyonce both lead the nominations with nine each and Britney Spears trails close behind them with seven of her own.

As for the males, Kanye West, Eminem and Coldplay each nabbed four nods.

This year’s awards will be hosted by Russel Brand for the second year in a row at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall. Already announced to performers include Taylor Swift, Green Day, Pink and Muse with Katy Perry, Ne-Yo and Chace Crawford presenting. More presenters and performers will be announced as the show draws nearer.

Fans have mixed feelings about the nominations, and many are upset about the amount that some artists received:
