What's up with Pastor Shirley's big blue Cinderella dress?

That's her Patti tribute dress.

yesssss marshaaaaa, yessssss aunti shirley, lmao @ cee-lo

Hmm while I do respect Cee Lo's ability to be different, I just think his performance wasn't serious. I would think when you going to celebrate a legend, can we be serious about it please? Oops I'm sorry, I forgot this is BET we talking about...carry on

Yeah, he was laughing the whole time, it seemed. Then he had the nerve to cuss during it!! I'm a big fan of his, but tonight's performance just made me shake my head. Did the BET Awards bug bite him too tonight??

Just wondering, is there anything wrong with liking both Tina AND Patti?

No, just the way Beyonce does it, it's like "I always wanted to be like _______________ *check list of honorees* *insert latest honoree name here*

sounds fake!!

EXACTLY MY POINT.

Gladys!

It's hard to make my play Mama Patti frown and Cee Lo Green did! Y'all know I do not play that!

The only thing they done right tonight is kept that camera on that fine IDRIS ELBA!!!!

Did I zone out for a second, or did she NOT thank Cee Lo for his performance??!! LMAO if she didn't!

She did thank Cee Lo, but like the rest of us I think she was confused by his tribute performance to her.

Like I said before, I didn't think she was going to be there, knowing how crusty this show had become in so short a time.

Patti seems to be in a bit of a brain freeze, overwhelmed enough that she don't know what to say.

"He scared me! " lol

Damn, Patti's son is old as hell! He looks older than her!

Really? I didn't take it that way. She seemed normal to me.

He turns 38 on July 17.

She thanked him because she is a truly loving, forgiving and gracious DIVA! That does not mean she appreciated what he did at all!

Beyonce's lying ass. Just a few years ago she wanted to be like Tina Turner, not Patti LaBelle.

I was about to say the EXACT same thing!!! I mean, you wanna make it seem that the honoree is important to you, but damn. Say something authentic and true!

Meanwhile, go 'head Cee-Lo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS.

Well there's one thing you can say, Patti can definitely still sing.

All hail Patti!

I absolutely loved Patti's performance, well done Ms. LaBelle!

I thought she'd take off her shoes!

I don't know what keeps Patti from doing "Lady Marmalade" by herself when she's in concert. Bringing other people to join in lmao

Is it wrong I want to lay a Chris Brown smackdown on Lala every time I hear her voice!

The lady's almost 70, I think she's about through with that routine, she carefully takes them off now lol

See, THAT'S how you close out a Lifetime Achievement award segment...with a knockout performance by the honoree her/himself. Take note, Prince.

LOL! I think she was about to, when she sat down but then she looked like she realized those weren't her kickoffs.

I'm still mad he didn't perform. Stingy ass. She performed better on this one than she did during the Prince tribute.
