This is the last of the BET Awards 2008 posting, but I can't let you all go home without pointing out the purr fuckery of the black carpet.
Solange is killing me in multiple ways.
1. The comb-over/swoop bang that is obviously hiding a secret.
2. And how Solange is transforming into LaToya Jackson right in front of our eyes.
As Fresh says, "Girl, you so different!"
Lil Kim, WTF?! That wig look spider webbed onto her scalp and she PAID to look f*cked up all the time like this!
Seriously, how old is this nigro (Shawty Lo)? I thought Flo-Rida looked old as hell.
A random-as-hell placement of Lisa Lisa. Um, why she ain't sing on the show?!! I would've love to see Full Force too, jheri curls and all.
Pretty? Ricky...why are they still alive?
Model Angel Lola Love. What in the hell is this thing? She's obviously bumming around in Golden Brooks' pancake #30 makeup bin. She needs to get it together for the last 30 seconds of "fame".
Toccara, Toccara, Toccara... She looks great, but I don't know. The symmetry seems off.
You tell me!
The BET WTF's
BET Awards 2008: Yawnerefferic!
Where do I start?
First of all, I'd like to give a hearty EFF YOU to the Comcast corporation for causing me to miss the first twenty minutes and some change of the show because of their faulty equipment.
Surprising, the 2008 BET Awards weren't as fuckery laden as it's previous efforts, but trust, your people did not disappoint.
I was giving the Nelly stare to this whole production all night.
Usher's desperate self opened the show and performed to remind us that before Chris Brown came along he was the nasally singer who got on our damn nerves first.
Try too hard much?
Cuba Gooding, Jr., Morris Chestnut and Nia Long got back together for a Boyz N the Hood rememberance type thing...who knows?
Ne-Yo got high up in the air in a nut cutter/church shoes wardrobe combo.
Keyshia Cole was looking confused and out of place as ever. She just tries so hard...
Lil Kim...no comment.
Alicia Keys in her Cleopatra wig overdoing it once again. I don't know about this girl anymore. She's been treading in the corn(y) fields lately.
Alicia Keys was joined onstage by a piss poor pitiful looking SWV.
I didn't know what in the hell Jennifer Hudson and Terence howard were talking about.
Why do they let P. Diddy talk?
Alicia was thinking hard about where those lips have been.
Chris Brown performed. This boy is quickly wearing out his welcome.
They threw Ciara in there to meet their ass popping quota.
Ciara's not tired of airing her crotch out on national television yet?
And right after the simulated sex performance of Chris Brown and Ciara?
Random gospel segment!
Mary May and Marvin Sapp. I wonder if they sat throughout the whole show.
Boogawolf-Pain performed his singing into a fan trick.
Nelly, Jermaine Dupri and Fergie were rapping about some damn shoes getting stepped on. Nelly, check your age and call me in the morning, kay?
Rihanna performed and took all of us back to CHUCH!
Soul singer Al Green was honored and Jill Scott sang one of his famous tunes. Why? Hellifiknow.
Anthony Hamilton sang a diddy and **gasp** my ex-husband came along and shocked me right out of a dry seat.
Maxwell did the damn thing!
Al Green came onstage to show the younguns how to flamenco dance (j/k).
Lyte skin devil Debra Leeevil came out sans much needed bra to honor Quincy Delight Jones, Jr.
Lil Wayne won some awards and managed to have the whole 9th ward to join him onstage and he also closed the show.
It was funny how almost everyone knew the words of the Al Green songs and sang along and the audience did the same for Lil Wayne's songs when he performed.
New Orleans we did it!
Is You Excited?
Yes, Is you!
I'm getting my ignorance on in anticipation for tonight's BET Awards '08!
Every past show was a certified mess and we won't be let down this year.
What do you expect to see at this year's BET Awards? **You know you're gonna watch**
Nelly and Ashanti (they're still effing?) at pre-BET Awards gala
Jill-Marie Jones at a pre-BET Awards event this past weekend.
I'm so mad that her hairline is thirsty and is a mixture of silky Asian with Indian Remy rising.

BET Is On the Comeup
BET, in anticipation of their annual BET Awards celebrating fuckery in music, has been throwing a myriad of events in LA in the past few days.
BET has definitely stepped up their gift game with this awards show.
This year they're giving away Rockports. Next year, they may have enough funds to give out New Balance, a biiig step up from the ProWings of yesteryear.
I must say that the lip gloss that they are giving away looks strangely like the jar of lip gloss that is next to the register at your local Walgreens.
But BET will never live down this crap from last year's Rip The Runway show:
