If anyone has already made up a tread about this please pardon me, but this is just out of curiosity.

At this years BET awards. Beyonce was criticized for not staying throughout the awards show after her opening performance due to getting ready for a show in London where fans reminded her that the concert wasn't for another week and she had Tina stay and accept her awards in her place. My curiosity is I wonder if Beyonce didn't stay because she wouldn't have been able to sit through the Prince tribute and definitely would not have been able to watch JHUD perform Purple Rain. The song her and Prince performed together at the 2004 Grammys. This is a man that was part of Tidal.

Also I was expecting Alicia Keys to work some kind of Prince tribute in her performance. But I wondered would it all have been too emotional for her doing any kind a tribute to a man she paid tribute to 6 years ago when he was alive to see it and now 6 years later he's gone. Right before Janelle's performance when she was backstage she had to talk to the heavens before she took the stage. These are just curiosities.

Uh I know this damn tread. There are 55 pages to this and I'm not about to even go through to get the specific answer to my question. This is not the same!
