Kanye West is in for a roasting - New York comedians want to take aim at the rapper for ruining Taylor Swift's big moment at the MTV Video Music Awards last weekend.

The rapper has been chastised by a host of celebrities after he stormed the stage at the VMAs to protest Taylor Swift's Best Female Video win on Sunday night.

West snatched the microphone from Swift as she was making her acceptance speech and proclaimed his pal Beyonce deserved the prize, leaving the young country star "rattled" and speechless.

The Stronger hit-maker has since said sorry repeatedly for his rude behavior - but officials at the Big Apple's Friars' Club are unimpressed by West's public apologies and want to poke fun at him with scathing humor in a celebrity 'roasting'.

Executive director Michael Gyure tells the New York Post, "How can Kanye not agree? He keeps apologizing... maybe it's time to let our comedians have their say at a roast."

If West does take part in the event, he will join the likes of Bruce Willis, Hugh Hefner and Donald Trump, who have all been mocked in the annual ceremony.
