BET Awards: photos and performance videos


The BET Awards were held in LA yesterday. There were plenty of high-energy performances along with awards in both music and acting categories. Kanye West took home two awards for Best Male Hip Hop Artist and Best Collaboration for “Good Life” with T-Pain. Alicia Keys was named Best Female R&B Artist while Chris Brown was the Best Ma;e R&B Artist. Missy Elliot was named best female hip hop artist and Halle Berry and Denzel Washington were best actress and actor.

Some celebrities took time in their acceptance speeches to urge people to vote and to express support for Democratic candidate Barack Obama. Diddy said “If we all register and vote, we will have the first black president in the history of America.” Alicia Keys said “Together we can do anything. Obama y’all.”

Thanks to the BBC News and People for the details for this story.
