MTV Video Music Awards: Tyler the Creator Disses Bruno Mars: Twitter Reacts

We believe the first insult of the evening goes to rapper, Tyler the Creator. He appeared on the MTV Video Music Awards Pre-Show and had a few choice words for singer-songwriter Bruno Mars.

VIDEO: Tyler the Creator Still Hates Bruno Mars’ Music

When Tyler realized he was at the bottom of MTV’s VMA tweet tracker, and then that Mars was above him on the meter, the rapper confirmed that he hated the singer’s music. And when the possibility that Mars may win Video of the Year with “Grenade” over his video for “Yonkers,” Tyler said, “I might kill myself.”

So, if Tyler’s goal was to generate more tweets about him, then mission accomplished. Here’s a sample of the best tweets generated from the comments.
