Singer/songwriter Keri Hilson and recording artist/producer Pharrell Williams pose for pics at the BET AWARDS ’09 nominee announcements on Tuesday in NYC.
Beyoncé, Lil Wayne, and T.I. lead the nominations for the awards; they all scored five nominations apiece. They were followed by Keri Hilson and T-Pain with four each. Rihanna (Video of the Year, Viewer’s Choice and Best Collaboration), Kanye West, Jamie Foxx, and Jazmine Sullivan each nabbed three nominations.
Jamie Foxx will host and Beyoncé, Maxwell, and Ne-Yo are scheduled to perform, which will air live in Los Angeles on Sunday, June 28.

I know Beyonce haters are working over time biggest they are her biggest fans.
get it beyonce!!!!! and rhianna of course.
@ GEORGE…..So Beyonce is the “Old Brittney Spears” and Rihanna is the “New Brittney Spears”????? You jus wanted to say something on this post and you didn’t care whether it made sense or not.
And maybe Imma alone, but I’d rather hear Beyonce over Mariah, Whitney, Anita B., Aretha, Neyo, Maxwell, and especially over The Dream and Keyshia Cole no singing azz.
DAMN!!!!! WHY R YALL HATING SO HARD ON KERI?!!!!!!!!!! IF SHE WANTS TO DRESS DAT WYA LET HER HER $$$$$$ IS PAYING FOR THAT SHT NOT YALL!!!!!!! YALL ALL ON BEYS DICK AND SHIT LIKE SHES GOD HELL SHE LOOKS OLDER THAN 27!!!! SO STOP ALL DAT DAMN HATING BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
keri… pharrell… nuff said

lol once again, who is reigning and is the main talk???? Beyoncééééé!!! you go girl, as long as she has the power to bring you haters here, she will still be relevant!!! so thank you
LOL @ Renae. Soooo true.
@123
YOU ARE SO RIGHT…. BUT ACTUALLY, I WOULD RATHER HERE WHITNEY RIGHT ABOUT NOW OVER BEYONCE BC I WANNA SEE WHAT SHE GOT. WE KNOW WHAT BEYONCE GOT. WE KNOW SHE WILL TEAR THE HOUSE DOWN ANY GIVEN NIGHT BUT WHITTNNNEEEEYYYYY..THAT VOICE… I WANNA SEE WHAT THE DRUGS HAVE DONE TO HER. THAT WOULD MAKE FOR A GOOD SHOW…. BUT YEAH BEY IS A BEAST AND WOULD SIMPLY OUT WORK AND OUT PERFORM WHITTNEY
yeah yeah congrats to everybody but we all knows tha bet is on beyawnce ass she will get all the awards.
This is not BEYONCELOOP DAMN!!! why is she even mentioned in this posting? I don’t see her pic or anything about her on here. Get off of her nuts sometimes… I know i will get some people saying stuff but oh well…I am happy for them all and can’t wait to see the award show….
yeah bet awards is irrevelant… put bee in best actress categorie. she ‘s one of the best singer and entainer and THE baddest actress ever.
anyway waiting for her performance.
“LOL. Rihalien betta thank TI because without him she would have ZERO noms right along with Heaira.”
Who cares? It’s “BET” awards not the Grammy’s. BET is irrelevant.
@ #131- Beyonce’s all up in this post because she’s THAT FIERCE!
mmmmmmpppppphhhhhh I agree wwith whoever said where are the real stars LOL
It is May right, whats up with all the winter garb :–?
Dream looks like a platypus. just very very werid looking and extremely unattractive….
Ant male artist(s) associated with P Shiddy always look suspect as he11 …coincidence I think not, SMH, even R Les
Keri needs to lose them wigs or get a better inventory
@ 131 Thankyou it’s too many damn ass kissers on here and am I the only one that thought the Bet awards was damn near good last year!!! I guess so because everything in this world revolves around Beyonce damn people love her more than they love their own families!!!!
needs an edit feature here guys …and yes BET has sucked monkey balls for years.. ever since they left DC and sold out to Viacom it all went down hill from there
If Beyonce does perform DIVA and looks at Keri she’s only stooping to her level which I don’t think Keri was even dissing Beyonce, but whatever the stans just want to get something started
Anyways I am not going to watch it this year there is really noone I want to see I mean maybe Maxwell, but the lineup seems pretty lame and they always have the same people nominated over and over again!!! I wish Alicia could perform, Jill Scott, Mary J. Blige, Aretha, Mariah, Janet all of these icons and legends, but Bet has gotten wack so I can’t expect that!!!!
Man Alicia Keys will always be my favorite at the Bet awards she brings so much class, elegance, and soul to the awards and that’s what we need and I was feeling that performance she did with the original girl groups of all time!!! That will be one of the most memorabe performances EVER a lot people said that was their favorite and it was badddddd!!!!!
Dream needs to knock it off and wear his damn size.SHYT!!!
Why Dream’s clothes (especially those darn leather jackets) have to be soooo fitted. I don’t think he can breath in that outfit
uhh, there are a million beyonces at my church: super good-looking and can sing. just cuz beyonce looks good and can sing DOES NOT MEAN the world has to fall in love like you super fans. she’s got your support. don’t hate on those who seek more from their artists….like a soul.
you all do realize this isn’t the Grammy’s or nothing like that, BET awards is for a channel that i’m sure many of these artists that are nominated don’t even watch, so being nominated for these particular awards don’t even matter
@george
HOW IS THAT AND SHE FORGETS THE WORDS….. ON TRYA THAT WAS HER BACKGROUND SINGER SHE ALWAYS DOES IT… UR JUST A HATER, EVERYONCE KNOWS BEYONCE CAN SING HER FACE OF AND ALL THE LEGENDS LOVE HER.. UR JUST MAD SHE GOT 5 NODS MORE THEN UR FAV. ARTIST HAHAHAHA!!! GO BEEEE !!!
LOVE BEYONCE!!!!!!!
TAKE IT TO ANOTHER LEVEL NO PASSENGERS ON MY PLANE-
Where did Jamie and Ryan Leslie get their jackets from?
There go Keri again over dressed…. She is mad CORNY!!!!
Will you all stop it already, I for one think she’s a lil overated, but who cares, simply said, it’s just the BET Awards, you know her daddy got all kind of stocks with them! lol
why are B stans so determined to make her a ‘legend’? The very fact that she is desperate for this title (but doesn’t create music deserving of the title) and her fans keep forcing the idea down every bodies throats actually causes the majority of normal people to strongly dislike her- hence why the supposed ‘haters’ cannot stand her. People are sick of her obsessed fans/ stans and how over exposed she is. Its resulted in many people actually hating her. If she and her stans didn’t act so damn crazy I might actually have some respect for her but I don’t- the whole stan thing just mirrors the whole idol worship thing. People need to stop stanning and worshiping idols and go read a bible/quaran or something.
the dream is sooo whack.
keri looks great. as does pharrell! i think they’d make a great couple
@ 149 Well said!!!! @ 146 What plane she herself is a passenger!!! LMAO @ 145 The legends love other singers too their not biased like you stans!!! @ 143 I agree!!!! Now there I’m done!!!
I hate when people say someone is the best there is no such thing do people go around and saying there’s a best Doctor, Lawyer, Police Officer, etc? And yeah there are some people who might say that, but at least they know them personally!!! Do yaw know Beyonce or any other singer personallly no all yaw know is her music and that’s it!!!!
@ 149 I agree and I have to say if Beyonce is a legend then so is Alicia Keys, Brandy, Mary J. Blige, Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Usher, shoot even Mya (she came out the same year as Beyonce), Toni Braxton, etc I’m just saying if you going to call Beyonce a legend mines well call those people legends some of them being out before Beyonce!!!! @ 23 Yeah sweeite Arehta and them will never be done with get with it child!!! And yes Beyonce does sometimes have similarites to Janet as well as her dance moves if you’ve seen the 2006 MTV awards you will know what I’m talking about!!! @ 66 MARIAH A LEGEND YES BEYONCE A LEGEND NO!!!
@ 66 There are a lot of 2-90 year olds who like Alica Keys, Mary J. Blige, Brandy etc so what’s your point?
