Oh Lord, she'd have to sound really dull to please that old troll.

But let's be fair, BET couldn't control what them dumbasses would say during their acceptance speeches or in their performances. These nuts are ignorant regardless of MJ's passing and would have been fools either way.

Beyonce's voice was wonderful and soothing and pretty. Her weave or wig or wigweave whatever was kind of busted and needed combing or brushing. Her tinkerbell outfit was so weird. Man I wish her momma would stop designing her clothes. She is married now, it's time to wear grown women's clothing and not doll clothes..

That's what I said. They knew they were being watched more than ever (not everyone, just the coons like T-Pain and Lil' Wayne and all those acts on the red carpet) and still put up the same ish like they was at the BET Hip-Hop Awards.

There needs to be a dress code like when Will and Jada hosted in 06 and Damon Wayans in 07.

SCNDLS said:

Even with that though, BET still had them on so hey, a spade's a spade. I mean I get what you're saying about it but it just didn't seem right anyways.

Plus Diana Ross tried to send a message to them in 2007 about conduct, guess it didn't work.

Oh, I love it! I wish I had said it! Damn you.

Timmy84 said:

But they woulda acted the same way if it was the Grammys or MTV Awards, so why should we expect any better just cuz this is the BET Awards? It is what it is and this is how these rappers carry themselves regardless of the occassion.

Timmy84 said:

When you have to tell grown people to watch there conduct, thee is no help.

T-Pain walking up to receive an award with his "BIG ASS CHAIN" and sipin' on the lyrics to "Blame It" was just ... bad.

Lord, T-Drone... that guy is just... where did Akon find him? (And who found Akon while we're at it, lol)

LittleBLUECorvette said:

why was he drinking out of a plastic cup? he has money and surely he can afford a bottle and a paper bag.

SCNDLS said:

I'm not expecting them to act totally "proper" but when you're doing something like this for occasion, is it necessarily to act like a fool? Maybe it's not BET's fault but then again they didn't have to do it, they had a choice and not lots will agree with it. I know they won't care either way, they get ratings.

Because "he's so hood".

vainandy said:

Is that what it is Vain? Okay, now I get it...

StarFishNCoffee50 said:

He sippin' on the lyrics to Blame It. Oh, and drinkin' out of cups is in now (surprised it wasn't a Styrofoam cup)

Timmy84 said:

you can take the man out of the ghetto but you can't take the ghetto out of the man. they are low class hoodlums with some pocket change. i think they will end up broke like Hammer and have to do a reality show.

I hope they never get invited to the whitehouse b/c they will disrespect michelle and stink up the place with their cheap weed.

Timmy84 said:

Like I said a lot of stuff happened behind the scenes that contributed to the lackluster show, but oh well it is what it is.

SCNDLS said:

I read Chris Brown, Usher, Timberlake, The Dream, were all set to perform for Mike but Jay-Z didn't let that happen?

LittleBLUECorvette said:

Is camel-face that powerful.

LittleBLUECorvette said:

I heard that about Jay-Z.

Timmy84 said:

That's not true.

SCNDLS said:

I didn't say I believed it.

Timmy84 said:

I've been hearing and reading people saying that all day so I just wanted to say that it's not true.

SCNDLS said:

"Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on a TV screen don't make it factual..."

It was the big coat. There are pics of her earlier in the month, thin. But even so, she did not look big. That is not big at all

DEAD. This rumor was started by one of Chris Brown's dancers on twitter. Apparently Chris wanted to perform badly, but the BET execs had second thoughts. Chris' fans have come up with all sorts of people to blame, from Al Sharpton lol to Cover Girl (they helped sponsor the show and Rihanna is a spokesperson) to Jay Z. I read the real story is the execs ultimately thought it might be too soon given he just plead guilty to assaulting a popular singer that same week. I concur...

Usher said he simply could not make it back from Paris in time. Don't know about Timberlake, but maybe they didn't want him because of the whole fiasco with Janet years back....who knows. The Dream? Who cares about a performance from him, especially regarding MJ?
