BET Awards 2009

Lets get it started - The Red Carpet at the BET Awards was HOTTTTT!!!!!

Not because of its L.A. location but for the simple fact that the stars did not hold back on the fashion and glam. There was something for everyone. And I mean everyone.

The women were in it to win it...

Taraji P. gave us a Sexy Back



















While Alicia Keys let the plunge go deep and the hem go up


















Ciara and Keri Hilson gave us body for days



















Melody Thorton lets it all hang out


















Ray J



















Tyrese



















Diddy


















On to the show my favorite moments:

New Edition kicked off the show and spinned to the sounds of The Jackson Five.













Watch out Weird Al, Jamie Foxx entertained us all with several costume changes and dance routines in Honor of the King of Pop, Rock and Soul



















Jay Z rocked the mic and stage with his new hit single D.O.A.





















Beyonce sings a beautiful Ave Maria














Ne-Yo and Jamie sing a beautiful duet together in honor of Michael




















Janet Jackson surprises the audience by coming out to say a few short and sweet words to the audience. This was a tough job and she stood up to the task beautifully.



















In my opinion, Ne-Yo won Jackson fans over with his Lady In My Life tribute. His voice was angelic and very Michaelesque. Didn't know he had that in him.















Thanks to BET for a wonderful tribute to someone I have loved all my life. It truly was a celebration and appreciation of the life of an icon. For three hours I was smiling and laughin for the first since I heard the tragic news on Thursday. I want to say simply Thank you for helping start my healing process.
