We’re well aware that security was very lax at last month’s 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, but this video here is comedic gold! Remember when Lil Mama hopped her azz on stage and crashed Jay-Z and Alicia Keys‘ performance? Well a brand new video has surfaced and it features Jay’s wife Beyonce trying to stop Lil Mama from going up there on the stage. Clearly Lil Mama was in her own world and didn’t give a damn! Continue reading for the video…

It’s no secret that Jay-Z didn’t take kindly to Lil Mama crashing his performance with Alicia Keys at the VMAs, but a new report goes a bit further into detail. Apparently, he was so mad Beyonce had to eventually calm him down:

Though he tried to stay cool onstage, a backstage source tells us, “He went ballistic. He was screaming at the MTV producers about the lack of security. He apparently thought at first she was just a fan. Beyonce finally calmed him down.”

He also chatted it up with Hot 97 today and said he’d “never have the nerve” to do anything like that, adding all of the hard work that goes on into planning and executing a stage performance. He even compared the Lil Mama incident to the Kanye West/Taylor Swift incident that happened earlier in the show.

“Me, personally, I would never do that,” Hov told radio personality Angie Martinez. “I would never have the nerve to do that. It’s just like, someone’s up there performing…we went through rehearsals, we did run throughs and we worked really hard at the performance to put on a show for people and to interrupt that moment for us, you know, I don’t think that was the right thing to do. I actually thought it was the equivalent of what Kanye did to Taylor Swift…And I’m cool with her being excited and all that but you have to understand, people put in work to make that performance happen, that took weeks…I was a little angry to be honest, but what I’ma do, fight Lil Mama? [laughs]”

We really need something new to talk about. It’s been over a week since the VMAs first aired and people are still asking questions about this and the Kanye thing???

Rapper Lil Mama says her emotions were running last night during the VMAs as Jay-Z and Alicia Keys performed their song, “Empire State of Mind.” She sent in an apology statement to MTV earlier today apologizing for jumping on stage with the two icons, who for the most part, ignored her presence altogether.

“I did not mean any disrespect towards Jay-Z or Alicia Keys,” the statement reads. “I admire them and look up to them as role models. ‘Empire State of Mind’ had my emotions running high. In that moment I came up onstage to celebrate my two icons singing about NY.”

Jay-Z appeared to shoo her off when he noticed her up there and said, “You’re T-Paining.” But she didn’t care. She kept on bopping her head and rocking to the music before striking a pose along with Jay and Alicia at the end of the performance. We would have loved to hear the conversation that followed!

Check out the video after the break.

Lil Mama chatted it up with our people over at Rap Up the day after Michael Jackson died and compared him to Jesus Christ. We couldn’t make this sh*t up if we tried…

“Jesus Christ touched so many people. The story that they gave of this man. … He healed people. Michael Jackson did the same thing, not only with his music, but with his performance and his personality.”

And the funny thing is she was DEAD serious. We love Michael Jackson too … but Jesus? Not Jesus (pronounced hay-zoose), but Jesus (pronounced gee-zus) Christ? That’s a little much…

(Photos: John Ricard) As you may or may not recall, we posted photos of Lil Mama and T-Pain on the set of What It Is (Strike a Pose) a few weeks back. And oddly enough, we never saw the final product of the aforementioned. Instead, last Thursday, her new video for L.I.F.E made its online debut.

But anyhow, here are the photos of Lil Mama on the set of “L.I.F.E.” Check out more after the break…
