2009 BET Awards: The Fabulousness & Foolishness

       
      
       
                           

This years BET Awards was full of all the absolute foolishness & shenanigans that keeps us coming back every year even though we vow not to. With an opening tribute to M.J. from the reunited New Edition (including Bobby!!) and host Jamie Foxx "Beat-ing It" it was hard not realize early in the game that this award show was heading on a downward spiral. Following their performance (if that's what you call six old guys bouncing around the stage), Tyra "I wannabeOprahsobad" Banks presented Lebron James (<333) with the first award of the night (Best Athlete) & Lil Wayne with the second (Best Male Hip-Hop Artist). In efforts to cut down any excess to honor the King most presenters presented not only one but, TWO awards & most catagories didn't announce the nominees but, the winners only. And as expected nearly EVERYONE was thanking M.J. before they even thanked God or their own damn mamas. The rest of the night was filled with mediocre tributes, the most "slit my wrist" type Beyonce performance, the longest O'Jays lifetime achievement dedication of life, an unfortunate semi-pedophilia incident during the Drake & Lil Wayne performance of "Every Girl" & a skit from the film "Baby Boy" that still has me scratching my head.... :/ The savior of it all however, was an emotional Janet Jackson coming out to speak on behalf of her family, leaving the entire audience teary-eyed. Couldn't help but notice the abscence of the former Chrihanna, which REALLY puzzled me as far as the Chris Breezy-less M.J.



BTW, Here's my "Best of the Best & Worst of the Rest" List: Best Dressed Girl: Alicia Keys "Ignoring the pimple on her nose who decided it wanted to see the MJ tribute too, she looked pretty damn fab!"

Worst Dressed: Amerie "Hi-de-ous!... I've seen more live looking corpses"

Best Dressed Guy: "Lebron James "This man could put on a potato sack & STILL look good! (Thank God he didn't though... I'm not that damn generous)"

Worst Dressed Guy: Day26 "Ok, they just COLLECTIVELY looked stupid... Que is so zesty I can't even take it, Mike plz unbutton that vest before you put my eye and Bryan... let braids go... for all of our sakes. geez. Just too many wrongs."

And for more detailed info feel free to read my tweets which I updated throughout the entire show:
