Lady Gaga has said that Kanye West still feels terrible about invading the stage at the MTV Video Music Awards during Taylor Swift's acceptance speech earlier this month.

The 'Poker Face' singer told US radio station KLUC that the rapper feels "so fucking bad" about the incident, that induced US President Barack Obama to label him a "jackass".

"I was thinking, 'Oh gosh'," she said when recalling watching the event. "But he's a good guy and everybody makes mistakes, and he feels so fucking bad. He really does. I think that everyone can get so caught up in gossip and stuff."

She added: "I think it's unfair to judge somebody on one mistake they've made. I felt like that moment kind of like really portrayed him in a way that he really isn't. It was just a random moment."

Jay-Z, whose new album 'The Blueprint 3' West produced, said the rapper had been "rude" but claimed that the media had over-hyped the situation.

Lady GaGa and Kanye West are set to hit the road together on the 'Fame Kills' tour in North America later this year.
