Last night’s star-studded BET Awards extravaganza had a plethora of hilarious shenanigans including Yung Miami supporting her FriendBae Diddy with a ‘Go Papi!’ sign, Diddy shouting out ex-bae Cassie without acknowledging Caresha or her big red sign, Kanye paying tribute to Diddy with a stocking over his face, Giveon blaming the mic on his struggly vocals, Ray-J eating noodles mid-show (because Ray-J), Brandy linking up with Jack Harlow for a surprise performance, and much more on Black entertainment’s biggest night.
Hosted by Grammy-nominated and Golden Globe®-winning actor, writer, director, producer, and philanthropist Taraji P. Henson, the entertaining celebration of Black excellence featured buzzy performances from Chlöe, Latto, Lizzo, Muni Long, and legendary guests saluting Diddy who was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award.
