‘08 BET AWARDS PRESSROOM & ARRIVAL PICS
Wednesday, June 25, 2008
The ‘08 BET Awards were held in Los Angeles on Tuesday. I peeped the show and while it had some great moments (gotta love Al Green and the girl groups), it wasn’t as good as expected. Anyway, peep some of these arrival and press room photos we got of the event. Tianna is going to hit you up with the fashion and performance photos later on today.

Am I first?
I actually thought it was great. They kept the foolishness to a minimum (aside from T-Pain performing twice) and I LOVED Alicia’s performance because she reunited my FAVORITE girl groups!! Al Green was off the hook. I think he turned all those celebrities into regular fans and that was really a cool moment. I guess I liked it because I’m not too much of a hip-hop fan.

THE BEST PART OF THE SHOW WAS ALICA KEYS AND HER TRIBUTE TO THE GIRL GROUPS OF THE NINETY’S AND THE AL GREEN TRIBUTE-LOVED JILL&ANTHONY-BUT THE ULTIMATE SURPRISE WAS MAXWELL. I ALMOST CRIED SEEING HIM! THAT HANDS DOWN WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE SHOW TO ME!

P.S. David Banner was looking fantastic!! And Anthony Hamilton’s wife must have tied him down and forced him to shave and dress well. I didn’t even recognize him at first!!! Maxwell looked different, but still a cutie!

Damn LisaRaye didn’t even show with her hubby…
She does look nice sans the bonestraight wig!!!!
IDC what y’all say Lil’ Mama looks cute…she’s different and she’s not afraid to show that…and I like her hair like that…
Shanti was best dressed
Fav performances would have to be Ne-Yo he brought out the Jabbawockeez,
Al Green, and I refuse to give Alicia credit for EnVogue bringing it down, b/c they could’ve taken over for all I care and I wouldn’t have noticed Alicia missing…plus I can’t get passed her being a homewrecker….
T and C looked better on the red carpet…chilli should really watch what she wears on those short ass legs she has!!!!Funny Funny
Cassie forgot to put on all her clothes
Toccara and Jordin sparks look nice and Kid Sister needs to ditch the blonde tresses for good. b/c she looks human now

With a few exceptions everyone looks FABULOUS!!! I never watch the awards show but I tuned in a little late last night… I thought they were good… I was happy not to see too much buffonery and gyrating half-naked women on stage…
Al Green was awesome!!
Chris Brownss and Ciara’s performanace was great!
Rihanna I have a new respect for because she can sing a little… although it seems her concert might be boring..she’s a pretty young woman!
I was excited to see SWV, En Vogue, TLC and Alicia all ont he same stage at the same time! For Alicia to pull that off was awesome!!
Although Q’s speech was all over the place at times I got where he was going with it! He’s awesome!!
Overall BET did a better job then the shows in the past!!!

the bet awards show was wack!!! I could not believe it! Jeezy, kanye, and wayne. Oh an Alicia Keys and Marvin Sapp were the onlyn good performances. No current songs nominated it was boooring. And when are The Tempts going to get a life time achievement award?

That was THE worst effing BET Awards show. You knew it was gonna be bad, because Usher’s opening performance was a bore.
Everything about this show was boring, with the exception of Alicia Keys, En Vogue, SWV and TLC’s performance. And Chris Brown bringing Ciara out on stage. And the Al Green tribute.
I really felt like I wasted my time watching.
I liked Ashanti’s and Rihanna’s dresses though.

The BET awards hmmmm….D.L. Hughley set the tone for a less than stellar night. And its so had how Usher feels he has schooled the youngin’s and they made him look like he’s the one who needs to take lessons. ne-yo’s performance was so good and smooth and chris brezzy and ci ci was hot!!!! My fav. segment was Al bc of course im a old school junkie. most embarrassing moment of the night goes to Cassie who doesn’t even know how to read a tele-prompter, oh diddy..is it really that good? if she can’t read i dont know how and the hell she plans on making a comeback!!! i appreciated the cam focusing on kanye most of the night cause thats my baby,,,,and thats pretty much it the awards were so so this year. Mo’Nique please come back!!!!!!!!!!

THE ONLY REASONS TO WATCH THIS=
1. AL GREEN TRIBUTE.
2. ALICIA KEYS WITH THE VINTAGE 90′S GIRL GROUPS. AKA REAL TALENT NOT THESE FAKES WITH NO TALENT AND NOTHIN TO SAY!!!!! I SAY PROPS TO MS KEYS FOR PAYING HOMAGE TO THESE GREATS. IF ONLY LEFT EYE WAS STILL HERE, SHE’D HAVE TORN THE PLACE DOWN WITH HER GREAT “I SEEN A RAINBOW YESTERDAY….” RAP FROM WATERFALLS!
THEY ALL SOUNDED GREAT. BUT I MUST SAY SWV STARTIN TO PUT ON THE POUNDS. THE EN VOGUE LADIES STILL LOOK AMAZING, AND OF COURSE T-BOZ AND CHILLI THEY’RE IN THEIR MID TO LATE 30′S BUT LOOK AT LEAST 10 YEARS YOUNGER. DAMN I WISH I LOOK THAT GOOD, EVEN NOW

Lisaraye wasn’t with her husband, huh? I heard they were getting a divorce and dude is holding out because he doesn’t want to give her shit. He is like you came in this relationship with one bag, bitch you won’t be leaving with suitcases.
Terry Crews got him a white woman, huh?
I could have a steady diet of Cassie all day and won’t get full.
Lil Gremlin (Jermaine Dupri) was out, huh. Also, I know Dondria hasn’t started caking it yet but the Gremlin could have bought her a nice dress and some shoes to wear.
Niecey Nash can get it!!!!
Who is that chick with Eric? She is banging. I like exotic looking women like that.
Big Boi’s wife is thicker than a snicker
If Jordin Sparks loses 10 pounds she’d be killing it

What is Keri Hilson wearing? I wasn’t really blown away by any of the fits I’ve seen so far. I like Pimp C widow’s dress. Best performance of the night is between A.Keys, Chris Brown and Ne-Yo.

THE AWARD SHOW KINDA SUCKED (I GUESS BECUZ BEYONCE WASN’T THERE).
KEISHA COLE: Looked and sounded a hott damn mess. WTF Keisha. And her mama was high as giraffe p****y. (altho i must admit Neffie and her mama looked nice).
LIL KIM: Looks like Letoya Jackson….yeah…a mess and a half.
USHER: Why in the hell wud he lip sing the whole damn song. So disappointed.
CHRIS BROWN: Sounded a mess…but overall good performance, Cici and Chris was hawt.
RIRI: She was fiyah
NEYO: Loved it
CIARA: She looked cute….both performances.
LIL WAYNE: He has one ugly as daughter…sorry.
T-PAIN: He pissed me off. That ish was cute 2 years ago, but he really needs to stop fooling out.
Finally….If Rick Ross big ass dont stop showin the world his big ass stomach…Imma scream…. Thats all.

@ Beauty Q.T., that’s exactly what I’m saying. That ish sucked, I think the opening act is supposed to set the tone of the show, so after watching Usher perform with his lip synching ass, that should’ve gave me the hint to change the damn channel. And D.L. Hughley sucked at hosting. I was soooo disappointed because they were hyping this ish up like it was going to be the best, and it left alot to be desired.
But I must say, Rihanna did a DAMN good job. She held her own w/out having to lip sing. I have a newfound respect for her, she did the damn thing.

Everybody looks Great!
Keyshia Cole looks good, she’s my favorite so……………..
Alicia Keys did have the best performance last night, but Keyshia was second in line she was mad hype her energy was unbelievable, LUV Me some Keysh!!!!!!!!!!
I feel as though Keyshia should have got the “Best Female R&B Artist” but hey that’s just my opinion.

En Vogue Looked SOOOO GOOOD! Id take any one of them!!! SWV…not so much. They looked so hurt walking down them stairs. And then the brown skinned oned didnt even bother doing the ending pose. She was like “eff it” before they even got on stage. But whatever the case may be that was the best performance of the night.

Ok, was I the only one that noticed how big Alicia Keys looked on stage!! When she came out, I had absolutely no idea who she was until they zoomed into her face. I was like, dang why is Jennifer Hudson performing Alicia’s song! OMG! She was swaying those big hips of hers, and I was so distracted by how big she looked that I couldnt even notice her performance. I loved how EnVouge, TLC, and SWV came out. T-boz sounded a hot mess though. I guess she was sick with the SickleCell. SWV has gained tons of weight, but that is to be expected. But my best perfomance was Maxwell. Dang, I got flashbacks seeing him on that stage.
I think the best Rap artist award should have gone to Weezy, not Kanye. I didnt get that one at all.
Also, best female R&B should have gone to Mary J or Keyshia Cole, not Alicia Keys!!

I was sooo happy to see UGK get an award it was well deserved.
I loved;
The female group tribute
Al Green including Jill, Anthoony, and Maxell
Lil Wayne brought it home lol
Oh yeah one thing I wanted to add it was nice to see two of the hottest rappers (Kanye & Weezy) giving each other props and respecting each others craft last night. Beautiful thing….

Also, Usher performance SUCKED! He needs to realize that he has been gone for too long. He cant come back with those Chris Brown/Omarion moves anymore. He is old and tired and he needs to let that go. He needs to stick to slow jams or something. He looked like Michael Jackson up there on stage trying to to his old moves back in the day. Let it go Usher. If you dont stick to slow ballads, your carrer will be over!!

Usher- what happened? I really expected more from him and then he didn’t even stay for the whole show. If he did he wasn’t shown anymore after his performance.
Alicia Keys- please start realizing that you have hips now and you are a woman and too tight clothing isn’t good for us, neither is a tacky wig. Why not wear your own hair, it’s not like you’re bald.
Ne-yo- AWESOME! He showed Usher how it should’ve been done.
Chris Brown- too young for me but great performer
Lil Wayne- great
T-pain and crew- great
Everyone had a great performance but Usher it’s like he was missing something besides his voice because he didn’t sing anything

^^^^^^ because he had just got off the stage those pic at the top are after the show
I thought the show was good it was better than alot of them in the past. I liked everybodies performance except usher he opned the show and that shyt was boring then on top of that he was lip synching to his voice over stf??? you been gone all this time and this is what you give us I was very disappointed with his performance I went to the kitchen and starting peeling potatoes for my fried potatoes and oinions. They could have had a better host too. Overall I thought this one was better than some of the others

Usher SUCKED!!
With his lip singing ass it was like he was trying to prove he can dance. Why didn’t he do Moving Mountains. All that hype over nothing!!!!!!!!!
Alicia and En Vogue was great and they sounded the best. It was good to see SWV and TLC but they sounded bad.
Neyo was good too but he needs a new dance quick!!
T- Pain set started off creepy with the circus theme but it was hot Luda was so hot.
Maxwell yay they dug him up.
Lmao at D.L. calling Marvin Sapp Warren Sapp
Rihanna sounded good but I hated her outfit.
Ashanti I thought she was going to sing her dress was ok
Nelly wack I couldn’t hear CiCi
CiCi put it down with CB that was hot!!! She can dance her ASS off. That was the best to me
Weezy his voice was annoying during Lollipop. Amilli was hot the crowd was hype. If he got hip hop I am scared.
T-Pain has a top hat for every outfit
Keyshia and Lil Kim WACK ass that was a mess and what did Kim do to herself?
Frankie was dropping it like it was hot on 106 in her dress lmaoooooo so sad.
Over all it was WACK to me

Rhianna is a great dresser. Whatever it is she has it. Is Chili from TLC ever going to age. That woman is almost forty and she looks actually better than when she first came out almost twenty years ago. Maxwell and EnVogue please make a record. Obviously you can see that people still want you. I don’t think no one’s waiting with baited breath for SWV I like them but I don’t think I care if they unite or not. But, EnVogue those singing sisters.
I wish people would teach these young ladies how too sing. They just do alot of yelling and it’s not necessary.

Hands down Alicia Keys had the best preformance of the night she SAVED that show, no lie… all the groups did a good job except for T-Boz what the hell happened to her voice she sounded like a sick goat, SWV did good…En Vougue..best believe athey stole the show for a moment.
Rih Rih…did great, her vocals have improved and she had a lil swagger in her stage presence.
T- Pain.. gave me a headache
Young Jezzy and Kanye SUCKED!!!!

Alicia had the best performance. I know people were expecting more from Usher but I actually was entertained by his performance. Keyshia was a out of tune ghetto mess.
Some of the award winners didnt make sense. Like how does The Dream win Best New Artist over Chrisstte Michelle?
I felt a tiny bit embarrassed for Rihanna cause didnt seem into her performance and hardly clapped afterwards. An “urban” crowd isnt really her type of audience, being the type of music she does…

The show itself was pretty wack and nobody was hardly there for their awards which is embarrassing.
Usher- super wack and everyone was talking bout he’s gonna have a crazy performance.
Neyo- Awesome performance and he brought out the jabbawackees which was great. Is he an undercover alpha?
Alicia Keys- always amazes me with her performances because she always thinks outside of the box. I wish she had worn a dress like the rest of her dancers though. Her shape is serious!
Chris Brown- ok performance. Ciara is who really made his performance something with her dancing.
Rihanna- surprised me greatly because she actually controlled her tone and sound great!
Al Green- legendary is all I can say! He had everyone in that auditorium standing up and singing.
Nelly- Wack and Fergie murdered him with rapping.
Everyone else I could really care less for.

Nia Long hands down looked amazing! Loved the dress, the hair & makeup was on point..go head Nia!
Best performanced hands down was the A’s…Al Green & Alicia Keys. Alicia & Al Green’s performances brought the crowd to their feet and took us back to good times, family reunions, sitting around the house playin’ cards….it just made you feel good. Everyone from the thuggest of ballers to actors to the bougie was up dancing, singing along, smiling and having a good time. Thats what being a performer is all about. Good to see Maxwell..he still got it.
Lil Wayne shut it down, Neyo’s performance was hot as well as Chris Brown & Ciara’s dance together. Smokin’ hot. I wish Ushers performance had a lil’ bit more “Umph” to it, but he did a good job. I liked Keyshia & Lil’ Kim’s performance. Kim may be all plastic upped, but she can mos def still flow.
Fashion Disaters was Keyshia Cole & her family on the red carpet…Wth?? Keri Hilson needs to let that Tootie from Facts of Life wig go..and loose the Donna Summer outfit as well. Alicia Keys hair was too cute on the red carpet, but i didnt like her shoes. Chili could of came better, she’s too fabulous for what she had on..T-Boz too, what wasup with her pants during the performance? Can we say polyester? Cassie looked a hot mess. It just wasnt right, and she needed some pasties on her breasts last night.
All in All, I enjoyed the show!

I loved Marvin Sapp’s performance, it touched my heart.
Neyo’s performance was FIRE and not to mention he had the Jabbawockeez.
I’m glad to see Maxwell is still looking good and his voice is still amazing…I just wish he would hurry up and put out a cd!!!!!
Usher’s performance was ok, I wasn’t impressed and besides I’m sick of hearing Love In This Club anyways.
Ciara and her dancing with Chris Brown was HOT!!!!

Nia Long killed it as far as looks and her whole ensemble. Gabby and Lauren looked great too. Ashanti looked like she was trying too hard. Everyone notice that she’s getting less air time now? Great to see Dondria there. I wish she had worn something a little more elegant though.

Keyshia Cole needs to practice running in place and singing. She gives out too quick. Not a good look. And keep her fam off TV. They embarrassing But that damn Maxwell! We need u back baby!!

I need to have my bestfriend in my head Nia Long’s dress in my life.
Kim dress is nice especially the bag. I am not even going to talk about the surgery or her lace front.
Ne-Yo did his thing Loved It!!!!
Rhianna sound pretty ok to me I was very shock. She looke amazing as well on the stage. The make up was absolutely beautiful.
For the most part everyone (well 90%) looked great.
A Keys beautiful performance.
LeLe use to talked about how much bigger she was than Coco and Taj. Now she has nothing to worry about b/c they caught up with her and then some.
BTW Tianna you are good for fnding what people wore. Where can I find Nia’s dress? I will be searching in the meantime.

En Vogue looked great, esp. Cindi. I’m sure it took everything in them to tolerate Dawn for that performance, lol. I love, love David Banner. Is it me, or did Lil Kim look like Beyonce with that blonde hair and purple dress on. I didn’t know who that was for a minute. I thought that Pimp C’s wife was pretty. Big Boi’s wife is pretty, too. Jordin Sparks looked soooo out of place. So I guess Niecy Nash is dating ol’ boy from I Love New York. Maxwell KILLED that performance, and that was the best I’ve EVER seen Anthony Hamilton. Tyrese, mmmm! I’m sooo in love with Rick Ross. And did anyone see Rachel from Planet Groove and Carribean Rhythms????!?!? She still looks great. My brother had that biggest crush on her.

As much as I hate baffoon known as T-pain…he’s dominating the production thing right now. One category 4 out 5 nominations were “someone featuring T-Pain”.
Alicia’s performance with the other ladies stole the show. But my my my…has her ass doubled in the last few weeks????? her butt was bigger than all of En Vogue’s asses put together.
Chris and Ciara had chemistry onstage. I love how Rihanna put on a good face but we know she wish she could drop it like Ciara.

Im trying to keep negativity to a minimum….So I’ll be nice…..
Best performance of the night hands down goes to ALICIA KEYS and the GIRL GROUPS…
T-Pain three words.. ONE HOTT MESS…But you gotta love him
Too upset that Jay-Z and Beyonce could’nt be there…..
Ne-Yo is a sharp dresser…
If I could wrap up Lil Wayne’s performance in one word it would be HOTTNESS
Rick Ross, Ludacris, T-Pain, Dj Khaled and company….Performance was fire..
Rick Ross’s swagga is a definate must……
Rihanna, Lauren London, Gabrielle Union, Nia Long, and Toccarra looked beautiful…..
Chris Brown and Ciara…. Dance skills is right very sexy..
Dj Hughley was waaaaaaaayyyy funnier than I thought he would be…
I loved how Alicia Keys talk show much intelligence….
The Al Green trubute was nice I enjoyed it..MAXWELL is too FINE..He looks good….
I’ve seen worse but given that talent that was their that night the show could have been much better..
Usher sucked…. If you’re getting too old to dance and sing just quit…you are an Artist which means you’re suppose to perform live….He suck…But I will give a standing ovation to his dancers…THEY DID GREAT..

Alicia really did the damn thing when she had all the girl groups reunite that was very special.
Usher did good but it wasn’t really a good choice for the opener, as for every other performance is was good to me i liked each one and i was very surprise to see sexy as maxwell he need to come and make an album, the man is HOT.

Why is EN VOGUE still DOPE? Don’t hate. Destiny’s DCF case, Daniky Came, whatever their names, they can sit down somewhere and stay.
Why does Keyshia Cole act like she’s practicing when she should be performing. She keeps checking to see if her set is still there performing with her….checking to see what step the dancers are on. Dag! …that’s why my husband calls her HIS LITTLE BROTHER.
Why is Neyo performing? Can’t he just write the damned songs? Droop-lipped- clown…dancing around like he twinkle toes. I can’t stan’ him. I’m saying “stan” really really hard too.

Sharonda, I was thinking the same thing…when was D’Angelo going to come…IDKY. But let me break the awards down….
USHER: now I was expecting like this big show, why did it look like he was an ol school dude trying to get his swag back. He just looked a hotty totty shotty mess!
ALICIA, and ol skool groups: Wow my girl had some hips on her! SWV looked like they wasn’t going to make it down those stairs. I was like “lord, somebody help them!
, OMG now why didnt TLC wear the outfit they were on the red carpet. SMH at those bellbottoms thingies…ummm no!!!! ENVOGUE, are you frigging kidding me they were looking so good, I was crying!!!!
KEYSHIA AND THE FAMILY. Now I love her like a hot bowl of cheese grits, but she sounded horrible, and I love Neffie and Mom Dukes. But why does Moms always have to be so loud, I wanted to crawl out of my skin when the pres of BET was talking on the preshow, and mom dukes was still acting, hmmm, hhmmm should we say a bit ghetto. But you know Neffie seems like she is trying to tone the ghettoness down. She looked really nice
RHIRHI- beautiful, but to me a bit boring…
oh did you peep how Chris Breezy was singing her song, and all into it….lol and then they caught his butt on camera singing…too funny!
TPAIN AND GANG…I enjoyed him and others, but that outfit just threw me off!
AL Green….Legend!!! And when he did that little dance at the end…too funny…
Maxwell: When he came on, I almost died. I was like ‘PLEASE COME BACK AND REVIVE NEO-SOUL!!!”
WTF on Kanyizzie winning for Rap category…ummmm maybe they forgot about LiL Wayne. I am sorry but my boy Weezie deserved that nod….but lets not even get on that subject
Last but not least, I am an official Lil Wayne fan, I was like Wow! on his show and his last line when he got on his knees!!! I was like go head stuff!!!!

3. Way too many Baldwin Hills promos…way too many.
4. I love how when Lil Wayne won his award about a whole row of people came up to the stage with him lol!
5. Rihanna has no stage presence. Still love her though.
6. Alicia’s performance was great! Her wardrobe selection however…minus 5 points.
7. Keyshia looked great and did a good job. Lil Kim made me cringe. Neffie and Frankie…no comment.

Usher — so through with him. He was so boring I went to the kitchen to make a ham/cheese sandwich.
Alicia — love her!!!!
SWV — lawd the skinny ones are fat (coco & taj) and the fat one is skinny (leelee)
Envouge — happy dawn let her issues go to sing with the group. loved those ladies “hold on”
T-Pain — too much ghetto on stage (could not understand the lyrics)
Big Boi — bad mic but I bet his 16 bars was HOT!
Ludacris — need to find him quick b/c he is sexy sexy sexy
TLC — tboz voice is so raspy i thought it was a man. she is spreading and might want to get up from the table.
Neyo — wow WOW — better than expected
Kanye & Jeezy — very good. energy
chris brown — he is lucky i am not 12 years younger. he would get it “break YOU down”
Jill Scott — Always on point singing. But what did she do to her hair (Dear Jesus).
Anthony Hamilton — so nice
KCole — the worst singing and dance
Lil Kim — please reverse the surgery
Marvin Sapp — felt blessed
Maxwell — when is his album coming out. I do miss that neo-soul lover

As soon as you lose 5/10 pounds, “Oh, I’ve never felt better, I feel so confident.” Stop frontin like you like being fat. If you’re comfortable, fine…..I DO THINK PEOPLE ARE WAY TOO SKINNY THESE DAYS. But I am so damn petite and cute….fat chicks always hating. If ya’ll so happy being fat…ADMIT IT and accept your fatness. Take more time in the tub instead of hating on skinny chicks. Telling petite chicks to get a back of chips…why so you can be mad that they can eat it and not gain weight. I’M GLAD I DON’T STINK AN HOUR OUT OF THE TUB BECAUSE OF COTTON STUCK IN BETWEEN PLACES. Who really wants an ass on their chest? I don’t. Stankin’ ass fat chicks be hating.

#89, Chrisette Michele is more BETJazz, and not commercial like The Dream. We all know the most popular, not talented people, win the awards. I agree w/previous posters about Alicia. If you have hips like that, skinny jeans/pants are not for you. I don’t have hips, but I have thighs, and I would never wear some mess like that. People, people, learn how to dress your bodies! Chris Brown is too bright and young for me, but he had me mesmerized when he did ‘Take You Down’. I feel that his performance was too short, tho. I want Keyshia to stop yelling and dancing. #106, I agree about Lelee. She had a little weight back in the day, but she looked good, but I don’t know about Taj or Coco…they needed some Spanx. I’m still laughing about how my mom was like who that hell is that when she saw Maxwell and said he looks like sex.

I must have been watching a different show than most of you because thought it was cool. Not the best, but it wasn’t bad. I liked Usher’s performance…but I think the thing is he puts more emphasis on his dancing than singing…and I’d personally rather hear his voice and watch him do a few moves then all the acrobatics and no singing. So I guess it just depends on your preference.
Alicia makes me yawn…and though I enjoyed the girl groups coming out I wish they would have sang a little more…and maybe even minus Keyes, lol.
I have more comments but I’m not about to make a long post.

There Ashanti go ready to catch flies with her trap.
Mr Al Green bought it back and I loved it, i have to go and find some CD’s of his, My grandmother (bless her soul)and mother loved Al green .
OMG and Maxwell melted my ass on the couch watching his performance.
What in the hell does Keyshia Cole have on? her and Kim rocked it but Keyshia can’t dance, she just need to continue the Classic Mary J Blige throw your hand in the air and rock side to side dance.
And Rick Ross came out with his big ass gut hanging out. Don’t do that to us again Rick!!! Not a good look!

The awards was a hot damn mess. Usher sucked big time…I guess he had his drag queen on his mind. Chris and Ciara , Al Green and Marvin Sap were very good. I guess Ciara left bugsmonkey at home. Alicia did nothing and she looked like a ham…but the SWV, TLC and en vogue were always great acts. Rihanna did a good job and she looked very couture and fab. Keyshia and lil jim not kim was wack and may i say ghetto as hell, her mama and her sister looked a hot mess. T pain session was ok. The awards overall was weak…not on the level as the MTV awards.

Everybody look nice and some of the perfomances were good but the best parts of the show was the Al Green tribute and he had everybody dancing & singing along. It was also nice that Alicia Keys paid tribute to the girl groups of the 90’s, man thoes people need to make a comeback and show some of so-called artists how its done. But overall the show was kinda good and bad like Keyshia Cole and Rhi Rhi singing off key.

Alicia Keys did the Thang…bringing out SWV, En vogue and TLC… But was I the only one waiting on xscape to pop from behind the curtains, that would have put the stamp on it. Usher was NOT good, Keyshia Cole did great, she was hype and her vocals were good, Missy obviously stood BET up…but Im sure she had a good reason..Oh and Nelly and Ferguie did their thing!!!

the show was ok. i really enjoyed Lil Wanye, C Brizzy and CIci, whoii that was real sexy.
A Keys was hot! En Vogue still looking and sounding good.
OMG RIRI surprised the shit outta me, the chick finally learning how to sing live, yall notice how she changed the high notes in the song into lower notes. That’s the reason she sounded great. the chick needs to stick in her damn range. Now all she need to work on is her presence and her dancing skills!

Am I the only one who thinks Rihanna sounded terrible??!! and the performance was less than desireable, Chris Brown and Ciara tho that was HOTT! Luv’d it! The water effects were hot as well, Neyo and the Jabbawockeez amazing, A. Keys, TLC, En Vogue, and SWV off the hook! , Al Green’s lifetime achievement award (well deserved!), and the performances to go along with it were amazing! T-Wayne? Umm ok..aren’t the cute little name collabs meant for couples?? Maybe I’m confused…first the kiss from wayne 2 baby, the T-pain talking about Ray-J’s “meat”?? A lil suspect if you ask me!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I see I wasn’t the ONLY person,that noticed how uncomfortable she looked on the show and at the AFTER PARTY show! She has been canceled*(thinkof the scene from NEW JACK CITY,WHERE NINO pours the champaine on his girlfriend’s head and he says”Cancel that bitch, I’ll buy another one.”)
-”Puffy” has messed her all up-it’s written all over her face-SO SAD-SMH!

Erm I dunno about this year, I thought last year was better though..
Alicia Keys and the other 90’s ladies stood out for me, it was the best performance that night.
I thought Usher was going to perform with Beyonce but okay, but it was nice to see him on the stage again.
Rihanna was WACKY wack! She can never own that stage, with her live singing or entertainment, I dont know why she bothers cause shes embarrassing herself..
Ciara and Chris B killed it with their moves! It was entertaining to see them..

My BET Awards Review/Commentary/Recap:
~Usher DID NOT deserve to open…or maybe he did with his mediocre performance…
~Keyshia Cole’s family is a MESS and her performance was HORRIBLE! She was wayyyyyy off key while singing “Sent from Heaven” which is one of my favorite songs and she missed her que in “Let it Go”. Thank God Lil’ Kim came out and attempted to save the performance.
~Ne-Yo (& the Jabbawockeez) smashed it (END OF STORY)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
~Chris Brown (& Ciara) were ehhh…
~T-Pain is a fool lol, but an entertaining fool none-the-less…
~Alicia Keys needs to go back to where she started, with a mic and a piano. I mean the reunion was nice but I don’t see how it was relevant to her performance. I miss the old Alicia who performed for HER fans!
~Marvin Sapp, Very good performance, I love that song!!!!
~Al Green was not bad at all and is looking good for an old man lol.
~Rihanna, best VOCAL performance of the night!!!!!!!!!
~Jordan Sparks, Nia Long & Ashanti…best dressed females of the night, by far!
~Not really feeling Nelly’s song “Step on my J’s” is it? But whatever, I guess he’s trying to bring back the sneaker song ordeal, whatever…Ciara looked hot…like a grown up Tiffany Evans if you ask me.
~Fergie’s outfit, was idk!!! But her purple leather was hot!
~I feel like I’ve seen the white with black accent suit too many times on Diddy…”When did he wear it best?”
~Lauren London is BEAUTIFUL…BUT she def wore the same (or very similar) dress in a different color on the Red carpet as she did on stage…a fashion do or dont?
~Who drinks Ciroc VODKA out of a martini glass (on stage…weren’t the Ciroc commercials during every break enough)?
~And I know theyre not his kids, but why don’t we ever see Diddy out at award shows with his Making the Band crew winners? I WANT MY DANITY KANE!!!
~RIHANNA DEF DESERVED BEST FEMALE ARTIST!!!!! BUT KUDOS TO ALICIA HER ALBUM WAS A BANGER!!!
~WEEZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY or should I say T-Wayne lol. I know he “Got money”, but he definitely could’ve done without the stage setup…what happened to the simple backdrop and a mic. I mean that’s all rappers really need…especially when they sell a MILLI A MIILLI A MILLI in a week…
~Overall…the show was a 7.6…

Why is Buckey there? She’s so ghetto and hoodrat.
Not feeling Keri Hilson’s ‘fit.
Usher sucked. He can sing, he should’ve sung Moving Mountains instead of trying to compete with Ne-Yo and Chris Brown in the dance department. He’s too old to be jumping and running across stage. Focus on your vocals Ursh. I guess he feels insecure with the new singers in his genre so he’s forced to proved himself.
Am I the only one who though that Maxwell killed it??? He’s been absent for so long yet he came back and shut it down like a true performer. Can’t wait for his new material.

Keri Hilson - Puffy “shiny suit” meets Hammer. She looks very warm
Kid Sister- she looks nice like the shoes (on a side note the stretched for the women in the rap category bcos they are either played out or not important

Poor Usher.
If NeYo’s performance was better than his- its time for him to start picking up scripts and ACT like an artist instead of trying to be one. Geez that was terrible- he even look like HE KNEW he sucked.
NeYo- first time I seen him do a performance I really liked! He need to thank whoever choregraphed for me because they made him look like he could dance (even though I kept waiting for him to fling that hat off his head like a certain somebody)
Neffie- Lord.
Frankie- Lord.
Gotta love them.
Keyshia Cole needs to be put on punishment! Why come she came out looking like she was going to rip it MJB style- and took it back when Mary showed up nice ass shit to the source awards flossin just a wife beater. Poor Keyshia look like she was going to fall into audience and when SHE KNEW she was messing up- she was waiting for the Queen Bee to turn it up for her- this bitch come out looking like the HULK!!- (what the hell wrong with Kim)
Two drunk ghetto bitches trying to get through the set without vomiting- smh!
Alicia Keys- she was tight with her bodacious body!BUT- Lord SWV- Lord. Coko look so pissed like she was thinking - I shouldn’t of agreed to this. And the one married to the the athlete- I mean why you didn’t get the personal trainer to stop by a few times before the show. They were GIRDLED OUT! Envogue older than them and they looked better than SWV. I did bust into tears when I seen Tionne and Chili- it would of been a RAP if (God Rest her soul) Left-eye was alive. I don’t know whyyyyyy they was dressed like that but- good to see the ladies of the 90s. I wish I was in Chili’s head watching Ursher perform. Lord.
Flo Rida- why? And who the f*cked he related to? I know he related to somebody. I want a record deal eff dat.
Rick Ross- I love him. No for real I really do. All of him.
BigBoi- legend- love him and his wife is HOT! (Bitch)
Kanye- just like I thought he has such a calmer demeanor to me. Is he starting to humble himself??..nahhh but it was WICKED watching him and Weezy praise each other- that’s love right there- I respect them both.
I love to see Hip Hop graduates- who would of ever thought “Mr. What’s your Fantasy” would turn out to be such a Debonaire Hip Hop Poet- that Ludacris is S I C K. Lord!
Even “Mr. Chimmy Chimmy Coco puffs” done gone LL Cool Nelly 2000- nice pecs
The Al Green tribute had my sick pregnant ass all over the place! That is the man right there- I always look forward to the tributes to the greats because its crazyyyy to see how they STILLL got it. Al Had everyone giggin’ with his “B.E.T Academy” accepting ass. Anthony Hamilton look like a Haitian man coming from T’urch on Sunday! Keep it up! Maxwell- he was excellent and Jill too.
Chris B why ya’ll sweatin this dude’s performance. Yuck. Eff a ciara- she aint do not ONE dance move I aint seen already. *rolls eyes* she’s wack.
What wasn’t a good look-
Neffie and Frankie. Lord.
Missy and whoever won new artist- not being there to accept awards.
Nelly looking like he just “stopped by” while Ashanti trying to get as much shine as she can.
T-Pain- just how he looked. Country ass all hell and HOT.

Aside from T-Pain (who ruined Wayne’s performance), Ashanti’s ghetto “I got the good good” thing (what was that???), and Ciara dancing like that on Chris Brown’s sack it was EXCELLENT. I couldn’t contain myself when Al Green performed!!!!! It was the best performance of any awards show, EVER! And Alicia and Neyo were PHENOMENAL.

Ok first of all…did anyone notice that the mics were off terribly last night??? For instance, when Nelly was rapping, when DJ Khaled was shouting during “So Hood”, when Chris Brown was singing and when MAXWELL was singing his Al Green tribute…the background vocals (which were studio dubs) and music overshadowed many of the nights lead vocalists. That said, lets move on the nights other fashion and performances…
D.L. Hugley as host…was awful and thats all to be said about that. BET made a bad choice with him. Also, the presenters scripted small talk, especially Gabrielle Union and that tongue-tied Derek Luke, was so ridiculous.
Alicia Keys’ ode to the sista-girl groups of yesteryear worked so well….even though Coko did a little too much (in addition to looking a mess) T-Boz and Chili seemed to have lost their voices??? En Vogue showed all the girl groups up. Alicia looked like a modern day Cleopatra with her bonestraight wig. Her vocal performance and energy was excellent and helped to tie for the best performance for the night.
Keyshia Cole sounded like a newly-signed act who was performing live for the first time…nervous. She even was caught completely off guard when the songs switched from Heaven Sent to Let It Go…lol she was so busy dancing (trying) that she missed her cue to start singing and her backgorund vocals kept on without her Lol. The outfits were nice and thank God there was no wardrobe malfunction. Lil’ Kim was out of breath instantly, looked like a Las Vegas drag queen.
Ne-Yo put on a tour-de-force, mixing an interesting blend of Cab Calloway, Michael Jackson (Smooth Criminal) to crank out some of the slickest moves on the stage the entire evening. Definitely one of the high points of the show. His clean, 3-piece, fedora donned look of late seems to be a mainstay for the moment and suits him just fine.
Chris Brown appeared on stage, a la special guest, Ciara, for a sensual take on Chris Breezy’s “Take You Down”. Chris really sang the song on top of the fact that he was actually singing the entire time…he gave an honest LIVE performance especially on “With You”. Hold up…now wouldn’t we have loved to see Chris and his chautese, Rihanna, take stage together in place of Ciara??? The camera caught a few great shots of Ms. Umbrella herself doefully grinning at the Chris’ performance. Anyways the mowhawk and the bowtie was cute, even though both of the trends are nearing the end of being relevant. Lol.. It was a good look though.
The highlight of the night would have to be the ensemble, All-Star tribute to Al Green…opened by Jill Scott, who just happened to be sporting new Mo-Locks (mohawk dreadlocks)and some fierce wedged-stilletos. Anthony Hamilton turned up looking unusally dapper and clean, particularly in the facial area. THE SURPRISE OF THE NIGHT WAS when Maxwell strutted on the stage to wrap up the trio of tributes…with a low cut and 1985 ish transition-lense frames. What a surprise. And the cameo was pleasant…near the end he even pulled out a few steps that were coordinated with the band. But no moment matched the pure energy and unity that swept the audience like that of Al Green’s medley. The entire audience was swaying and crooning, to include a sleeveless Busta Rhymes caught playing an imaginary trombone. This was the performance of the night.
Lil’ Wayne put on a respectable performance, but curiously with T-Pain??? No only did T-Pain already perform earlier that night, he wasn’t featured on any of the songs Weezy performed and he singlehandedly won the award for HOT ASS MESS of the evening, In his second appearance on stage, T chose another ringleaderesque top hat to adorn his all white get up. Back to Wayne, he did the best thing he could have done, he spit…alone (no dancers or hype-man) he showed his collage of tattoos and let his hair down.

#32…you missed A Keys performance or the tribute to Al Green? You sounded stupid with the first comment you made. But what confirmed your stupidity was that comment about Lil Wayne’s daughter. You’re a dumb ass.

Excellent performance by Alicia, Marvin Sap and the Al Green tribute. The rest looked like American Idol contestants.

I didn’t read all the comments but I agree with everyone who caught on about Usher trying too hard to comepete… They said it’s friendly competition between Chris Brown and Usher…maybe… I just know Chris Brown talked about them saying things back and forth at rehearsals… Usher obviously was so caught up in trying to beat them (because he IS the best dancer) that he abandoned vocals…I think he assumed everybody knew he could outsing them and so he’d just focus on outperforming them but boy did Neyo get his a**? lol As a credit to Usher, mayyyybbbe the fact that Neyo’s songs are relatively easy to sing is why the man danced so much AND sang PERFECTLY but IDK… Usher was really really boring…And Chris focused too much on dancing too…I don’t like his voice AT ALL and he sounded worse than he ever has last night…and the “rolling” in “Take you down” is SOOOOOOOOO gay so when Ciara came out looking like the insect that mates and eats her lovers head I wanted to puke.. When she was rolling on top of him it was NOT entertaining but raunchy and that’s why she’s #25 (she should be happy to be on the list AT ALL cause she aint doing nothing with Beyonce and JLO) on the dancer’s list. That was so ghetto it made me cringe…that AND Ashanti’s intro…and that is why the two of them will forever remain D List!

One more comment to add to my speil earlier as (POST #189)……..USHER!!! I almost forgot, sadly, to mention that this awards show capitalized on the fact that Usher’s creative growth is at a standstill. This is about more than the fact that his performance looked and felt(detached) like a music video….more than his lip-syncing every word….more than him wearing an over-the-head microphone?….more than the photo-montage that preceeded his entry. This about the fact that nothing has evolved about Usher as he is doing exactly what the newcomers are doing; what he has been doing for years, but he is no longer any better at doing it and we want to see more. Furthermore, “Here I Stand” feels like a relaunched version “Confessions”, only less compelling. First singles are about a night at the club, with two adjacent videos shot on the dancefloor of a club.
Ultimately, following his performance, there were alot of blank stares; people wondering if they had just watched a music video anthology-medley of Usher in 3-D. There was so much going on, Usher might have well been mute for our sake. Compare the performances, Ne-Yo made his way into the audience and really connected in the midst of swirling around the stage. There wasn’t one unrehearsed step by Usher during his show opener.

I actually enjoyed Usher’s performance. I thought the moving floor was a nice touch and I really enjoyed whe him and his male dancers broke it down… But Usher still broke his ass on that one flip in the beginning…that was funny as hell…LOL
I absolutely loved Alicia’s performance. I miss all those old girl groups. I felt like a teenager again watching that and they all still look good! Go Alicia!!
Lil Wayne’s was hot but it got even hotter when he did my joint “Milli”…that is my jam right now!
Neyo did the damn thing!
I love and appreciate me some Al Green even more after that performance! That whole tribute was fiyah. I love the way he just had the whole audience jammin’
Overall, I enjoyed the whole show!

I thought the show was ok, I did read a lot of rumors about usher doing the remix with bey and Wayne but that didnt happen…….
nobody really seems to care how ridiculously tight jennifer hudson dress was. I have no problem with her weight at all but come on, go up a half-size or a full-size, and I guess that I am one of the few people that thinks ciara and chris brown’s routine was tacky and raunchy….and now I done saw some grown ass lil girls on my block really copying the bullshit..
