ET has learned that moments after country music starlet Taylor Swift revealed on ABC's "The View" that Kanye West had not personally apologized to her for their tense moment at the "2009 MTV Video Music Awards" -- the rap star phoned in to the show's studio and spoke directly with Taylor.

Kanye spoke to Taylor, 19, over the phone and offered his apology for interrupting her acceptance speech on Sunday night's VMA show -- and ET has learned that she accepted his apology.

"Kanye did call me and he was very sincere in his apology, and I accepted that apology," Taylor told ABC News Radio.
