Kanye West pulled off a fairly epic prank at last night's Grammy Awards, when he ran onstage as Beck accepted his award for Album of the Year.

The musician beat Beyoncé to the coveted title, a decision which didn't go down too well with her pal Kanye West. The rapper seemed as if he was about to relive that infamous 2009 incident where he interrupted Taylor Swift onstage as she accepted the award for Best Female Video, but soon thought better of it and left poor Beck to his own devices.

While we can cope with Kanye being a little rude, we didn't expect his wife Kim Kardashian to jump on the catty bandwagon. But the diva showed her bad side last night when she posted this picture of herself, singer John Legend and model Chrissy Teigen with the caption, "This is the Beck won that award face?!?!?!"

Ouch!

Commenters on Instagram spoke out in Beck's defence, with one follower writing, "Beck can care less about what a talentless reality star thinks" and another saying, "This is so rude!!! Bullying other musician for his award!!!"

Luckily, Beck himself didn't seem too bothered by the whole incident, telling Us Weekly at the Grammys after-party that he too expected the Queen B to win. "I thought she was going to win. Come on, she's Beyoncé!" he admitted.

As for Kanye's stage crashing, Beck said he was more starstruck than angry. "I was just so excited he was coming up. He deserves to be on stage as much as anybody…How many great records has he put out in the last five years, right?"

We're not sure if we'd be quite so diplomatic – well done Beck!

Kanye West was up to his old tricks last night, storming the stage uninvited, much to the shock of viewers.

The rapper infamously interrupted Taylor Swift back in 2009 as she accepted her award for Best Female Video, telling her and the audience, "Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'mma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time."

Taylor had won the award for her You Belong With Me video, but many (including Kanyes, obvz) believed Beyoncé was more deserving of it.

Last night, singer Beck was awarded the Grammy for Album of the Year, again much to the shock of many who were expecting Beyoncé to win for her self-titled album. Never one to go down without a fight, Kanye "jokingly" ran on stage as if to interrupt, before thinking better of it and sitting back down.

Awks! As Kanye left the stage, Beck smilingly said, "I need some help!" before being joined on stage by his collaborators.

The rapper later spoke to E! reporters about the incident saying, "Beck, he should respect artistry, he shoulda given his award to Beyoncé."

Ah, chill out Kanye! While many saw the funny side of the prank, others were not so happy:

As for Kanye, he showed that he has at least mellowed out a little over the last few years by happily posing for a photo with Taylor herself:

BFFs… kinda!
