uhm… not that i’m not glad precious won, i am but i think very strongly that why did i get married too should have been nominated and it should have won and janet jackson should have also been nominated for best actress and she should have won… that’s what i think!!!
bieber lover i am just as mad as you… janet jackson should have won and been nominated for best actress. i was soooooo mad. she wasn’t even nominated… why did i get married too should have won for the best movie of 2010… but chris brown stole my heart tonight……
Monica killt that performance with Deniece Williams. I am so happy that BET gave urban, rnb and hip hop artist their time to shine tonight thats what BET is about.. When Urban rnb and hip hop artist perform the place always shuts down..

can sumbody tell me y young money was nominated for best new artist thts a group nd can sumbody tell me y nicki minaj won she cant f*ckin rap her dumb a*s i hate the faces she does they get on my nervous shes so stupied nd i aint hating
Drake & Nicki Minaj winning the best rappers? Whoa! As of the time of the nominations these dudes didnt even have an album, Minaj still doesnt. Not that they are not good, but hey, they would been given that shot next year.
Am happy for my man drake,nicki minaj,young money.but i am so disappointed that usher didnt get any of d wards.more to that drake ft lilwayne,kanye west and eminem forever should have won.

ITS GREAT DAT YOUNG MONEY WAS AWARDED,THANK GOD.
waiting for Beyonce’s performance, acceptance speech and arrival at 2010 BET AWARDS
dat was fair, atleast beyounce dint hav to take them all thid tymm

Just wanted to say that I love Chris Brown and Chris Browns music videos and I thought that his performance at the BET Awards and his Michael Jackson Tribute was amazing! I also love Ciara too! Shes gorgeous and i love her R&B songs and Ciaras music videos as she makes the best R&B music videos. I also love another of the nights big winners Drake whos been absolutely awesome this year. Drakes rap songs and Drakes music videos have been some of the hottest Rap & Hip hop music videos around. All in all an excellent nights entertainment.
Trey songz deserved that ward , actually its just the begining awiat and see
Young money really deserved the best group award
