Hollywood Mama Blog

Still continuing our coverage of the BET Awards we had to ask the question what were they thinking?

Lil Mama: She may be lyrically gifted but this female rapper needs a divine intervention when it comes to fashion…its one thing to pull a Missy Elliot but its another to add a child as an accessory!

Soulja Boy is all smiles as he breezed through the red carpet…usually you here of a rags to riches story but seems he’s got the rag part covered!

Back up singer Keri Hilson demostrates why her ass is always at the back singing!

BET aired the 8th annual BET Awards 08 yesterday It was fun, but undeniably Lil-Wayne gave the best performance of the night!

Join Hollywood Mama Now as she digs into her diary and reveals her thoughts about the BET Awards

THE HOLLYWOOD MAMA BLOG DIARY: BET AWARDS 08

LOCATION: SHRINE AUDITORIUM

CITY: LOS ANGELES

STATE: CA

Dear Diary,

Usher opened the show with his single “Love In this Club” he looked so fatigued…and it was so sad to see him perform only one song!

See what Tameka has done to my usher…Album coming soon but only 1 song is radio ready…great!

DL Hughley hosted the show…to bad all the black comics were too busy to host the BET Awards cause for DL to get the call…nobody must have been available!

Diary, I saw Chris Brown rocking a mohawk in his gucci ensemble looking like a totally hot fucking mess sitting next to that rhino head rihanna! I mean we know they are a couple do they have to copy everything Beyonce and Jay-Z do? Anyways someone needs to do a recount in the pools for best Male R’n'B cause i dont know why Chris Brown would win Best Male over J Holiday… unless the BET Officials are between 13 years old and younger (Debra looks like shes clocking on 14 soon)!

So then Young Jeezy comes on right and I cant hear a fucking word he’s saying…hes shouting the whole time then Kanye comes on and revived the crowd..spotted a couple of people that got hit with the turpedo’s coming from Jeezy’s mouth…i.e spit

Anyways Diary BET gave the best Male Athlete of the Year award to an absent Kobe Bryant who prolly is still in the bathroom at the civic center crying over his loss to the celtics.

Hollywood Mama on Young Jeezy’s performance:

You couldn’t hear a word from jeezy he practically shouted the whole thing…but at least we were glad to see kanye west step in!

Check it out tomorrow!

Last Night at 8pm/7pm central the 7th Annual BET Awards took place. The Event which is a celebration of Black Music, Movies and Entertainment.
The Event was hosted by The ‘queen of comedy’ Monique.

Now… I think this was the best BET Award Show, Monique really had us awake and kept us laughing throughout the show unlike the previous hosts. The Opening act was one of the best performances with Monique doing a Beyonce Dance Parody!

The Best Performance of the night goes to..DIDDY his collaboration with Keyshia Cole, The Orchestra…and to top it all Lil Kim making an appearance!! How i wished diddy walked away with an award the guy is really a performer!

Next on my list…..Jennifer Hudson and Jennifer Holiday i mean woah!! Their song gave me goosebumps! great performance and kudos to JHud on the award. Whats with the dude following her on stage i mean wtf? boyfriend? manager? who knows!

Followed by TI - Hes the bomb…his song still chimes in my head! He has so much energy its overwhelming!

50 Cent… He made a statement and quite frankly i got the picture…

Ciara’s was great…love her dancing!

Beyonce’s performance was not all that, I think she should have performed Upgrade You i guess she didnt want us to think the only way she can perform is with jay-z!

The Tribute to Gerald Levert was touching, Chaka Khan’s still got the juice in her as well as Gladys Knight also Patti LaBelle looked stunning.

Eryka Badu did a great job during the Diana Ross Dedication and it was great to see Diana’s kids come out to support her!

Kelly Swung to much on her steps and eve couldnt rescue her from her breathless song!

Overall Monique did a good job she was the best host for me!

Long Live the BET Awards… Long Live Black Music
