BET Awards 2010 Nominations

Published: Tuesday 18th May 2010 by Trent

Earlier today, in a brightly lit room overseeing the busy mid-Manhattan streets, the nominees for the 10th annual BET Awards were announced with the help of this year’s host Queen Latifah, the self-proclaimed ‘champion of Hip-Hop’ Diddy and his entourage of Dirty Money.  Check out who was nominated for what after the jump…

{Words by That Grape Juice’s New York correspondent, James Dinh}

Jay-Z lead the forefront with five nominations including ‘Best Male Hip-Hop Artist’ and ‘Video of the Year’ where his clips with Alicia Keys (“Empire State of Mind”) and Rihanna & Kanye West (“Run This Town”) will go head to head.  Other suspected contenders such as Beyoncé, Trey Songz and Alicia Keys grabbed four nominations.  But its breakout artist Melanie Fiona who may be the evening’s shining star as the newbie snagged four nominations including ‘Best New Artist.’

The channel decided to spice up this year’s category line-up with the addition of two brand new categories: Best Movie and the YoungStars Award.  This year’s ceremony will include performances by Diddy, Trey Songz, Nicki Minaj, Drake and more to come.  And while a few of the nods left us with in the dust including Justin Bieber (‘Best New Artist’), Beyoncé f/ Lady Gaga – “Video Phone” (‘Video of the Year’) and Hype Williams (‘Video Director of the Year’), congrats to this year’s nominees!

The 10th annual BET Awards will air live from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles on Sunday, June 27, at 8 p.m.  To catch up on the latest news and updates about the show, check out the official BET Awards Twitter. http://twitter.com/betawards.

    These nominations are a big thumbs down!

  2. Joseph McCoy May 18, 2010

    BOO! Monica and Chrisette should’ve been added into those Best R&B Female Singer categorys!

    And Toni Braxton should’ve been added to the Centric Award!

    BET, what the f***.

  3. jonstrax May 18, 2010

    IS IT JUST ME OR ARE THE SAME PEOPLE NOMINATED EVERY YEAR. THAT IS AN INDICATION THAT RECORD COMPANIES NEED TO PUMP MORE MONEY INTO NEW ARTISTS AS I AM TIERD OF SEEING THE SAME PEOPLE EVERY YEAR.

  4. truthis May 18, 2010

    BEt is a joke and how in hell they nominate Rhianna and snubbed Monica…Monica is r&b and her album is Fiiireeeeeeeeeee….they should be ashamed of themselves..I swear that show is going to the dogs faster that a 747 out of gas…..

  5. der May 18, 2010

  6. Last Boy on Earth May 18, 2010

    BET sucks, it is ghetto all over the place

  7. Carl May 18, 2010

    GIT IT NICKI!!!

  8. Plug May 18, 2010

    What the hell? Are they just pulling names out of a hat now? Man, if we needed further proof that the music industry depreciates with every passing year, we need look no further than the list above. Justin Bieber? Lil Kim? Video Phone and Sweet Dream? Are you serious? Man, my feelings are so hurt right now.

  9. beyoncebreezy May 18, 2010

    isn’t BET for black people why is Bieber nominated? no offense

  10. Mr.727 May 18, 2010

    Unless you can when a Grammy then really you are only a blacks only artist! Hate to be harsh, but the reason the BET AWARDS sucks, is because none of these people have had hits beyond the black community! Once they start to actually have people with raw, real, vocal, musical, performance talent grace the stage, but that may not be til 2015!!!! haha!!!!

    On the real BET IS FULL OF S*** HAVING THAT MED

  11. Mr.727 May 18, 2010

    On the real BET IS FULL OF S*** HAVING THESE NO TALENT ASS PEOPLE ON THERE AWARDS SHOW!!!

  12. Travis May 18, 2010

    Mr 727

    Are you stupid? Many of these nominees have had success outside of the black community. Beyonce, Chris Brown, Drake, Nicki Minaj (believe it or not but a lot of white girls love Nicki), Jay Z, B.O.B….i dont need to go on.

  13. kveick May 18, 2010

    Go Beyonce!!! 🙂

    that is all

  14. Mr.727 May 18, 2010

    To me none of these people had any good albums, they all followed that same commercialize formula, that is old tired and worn out!!!

    R&B is dead!!

  15. nerd May 18, 2010

    WTF NO MONICA, that is a weak nomination. I’m surprise Rihanna didn’t have that much nomination

  16. TJ May 18, 2010

    Monica was snubbed. Wow… this is an EPIC FAILURE on the part of BET!

  17. TRACY May 18, 2010

    B. lacks E. mbarassing T. hemselves can GO TO HELL! After that horrible mockery of an MJ Tribute @ the 2009 award show, I will NOT be watching it this year. Don’t even have the channel anymore …THANKFULLY

  18. Travis May 18, 2010

    Mr 727:

    That still has nothing to do with their success outside of the black community. Especially Beyonce, her success outside the black community is evident from her worldwide tours.

    WTF VIDEOPHONE IS NOMINATED FOR BEST VIDEO & HARD ISN’T? & BIEVER IS NOMINATED?

  25. Topman May 18, 2010

    ROCKSTAR 101 PREVIEW IS OUT, RIHANNA IS BRINGING IT YET AGAIN!!

  26. ImHighPrice May 18, 2010

    This channel make me embarrased to be black…they need shut this s*** down…smh @ ester dean being a hip-hop artist all of the damn sudden, video phone being nominated for ANY award, rihanna being considered an R&B singer and monica being severely shunned.

  27. RihannaLover May 18, 2010

    Why is Rihanna nominated for Best R&B artist? What R&B song did she release? BET is very confused!!! This is why people have stopped watching the channel!!! It sucks!!! MTV rules, BET sucks!!!

    @TOPMAN- I agree!!! Can’t wait to see the whole thing!!!

  28. greg May 18, 2010

    BET is GARBAGE! Can’t stand the shows, especially the awards & since when did Justin Biebonicplague qualify for a BET Award? A white person pretends to sing “black music’ we automatically give them awards? This is like BET hopping onto the Justin TimberFake bandwagon. They realized who TimberFake *really* was after the Superbowl and hopped right off smgdh

  29. BeyonceSoldier May 18, 2010

    Rihanna as R&B female BUT NOT MONICA!!! This is plain old b*******! BET=#FAILURE!

  30. Last Boy on Earth May 18, 2010

    It’s obvious that they only the likes of Justin Bieber to gather more views

  31. Last Boy on Earth May 18, 2010

    And I wonder why is Rihanna nominated for Best R&B Artist, she only has 1 R&B song in her album, which is Stupid In Love

  32. Stoney-Brie May 18, 2010

    wdf??

  33. ??? May 18, 2010

    I think BET was sold to a white org. Look it up but I’m almost certain

  34. mailla May 18, 2010

    Why is Gay Songz now being nominated for stuff all the time? It’s seems like pity for the fact that it took him 5 years to become SEMI-relevant. He released an album 8 months ago, six singles & only just went gold. As for the Monica shun, it’s typical. Monica sings real music. Not the catchy crappy slutty ass lyrics of songs like Rude Boy or Video Phone.

  35. AMaunee May 18, 2010

    I’m in disbelief. Monica had the #1 R&B album. She is also apart of the BET family. Its pure disrespect.

  36. X,Y,”and Z” May 18, 2010

    BET is NOW owned and operates-under-the-auspices-of Viacom. That’s why the programming has gone-to-s***. And if y’all got-a-chance to see Viacom’s recent earnings report, BET is making money for ’em. Y’all know what THAT means, right? …More “coonery”, less-programming of-ANY-substance, and the further whoring/pimping-out/dumbing-down-of OUR culture and OUR community: “Less-of, Jeff Johnson,” and-more-of Keisha Cole’s mother and HER antics!

    …That said, I LOVE Keisha Cole, but as y’all done-see for yourselves, even Keisha couldn’t stomach the-BS-any-longer; she-packed-her-s***; moved to Cleveland: ‘making little boobies,’ …good-for-her!!

    In any case, if y’all don’t watch BET, Viacom WILL change. If y’all start-a-boycott, Viacom WILL listen; if y’all start a writing-in campaign, to-voice-y’all-grievance, Viacom WILL-MAKE-NECESSARY-CHANGE(S) …!!!

    X,Y,”and Z” — OUT!!

  37. bev May 18, 2010

    Why is Gay Songz being nominated for awards all the time now? Are they showing him pity because it took him 5 years to become SEMI-relevant. He released his album 8 months ago, six singles & it still hasn’t gone Gold. As for the Monica shun, it’s typical. She sings real music, not crappy, catchy, slutty ass songs like Rude Boy or Video Phone. We all know how unpopular REAL music is nowadays.

  38. CC May 18, 2010

    What a load of balls! That pretty much sums up all I have to say.

    I mean Video Phone nominated for best music video!? C’moooon. I bet it will win too LOL

  39. yuneese May 18, 2010

    Beyonce Entertainment Television is becoming predictable.

  40. KA May 18, 2010

    BET is a ghetto mess, absolute trash.

  41. RihannaLover May 18, 2010

    @BEV- Why do you have to slander Rihanna/Beyonce to praise Monica? Monica is purely an R&B artist! Rude Boy is a pop song! What exactly is real music? Such a narrow-minded argument!!! SMDH!!!

  42. hihihihi May 18, 2010

    LOL

    @THE PERSON WHO SAID NO OFFENS EBUT WHY IS JUSTIN NOMNIANTED BC HEGS WHITE

  44. kj May 18, 2010

    Hope chris wins

  45. Stacey May 18, 2010

    Does Jay-z have some type of majority shareholder interest in viacom or something? His tentacles reach very far in the industry. This guy is going to bust hell wide open. He and anyone associated with him is hellbound.

  46. BET sucks! May 18, 2010

    BET has tuned into S*** channel ever!! WTF!! Just look at these nominations!!

    BET= B******* or Beyonce Entertainment Television

  47. Yellow Gorillah May 18, 2010

  49. Dominique May 18, 2010

    where is Monica, Whitney, and Mariah Carey? anyway congrats to all the nominees

  50. geronimo Deuces May 18, 2010

    Beyonce ??? I think she has enough now

  51. SDW May 18, 2010

    Hello Lady Gaga IS nominated a collabo takes TWO people so yes she is nominated!!! And let off Justin he was on 106, his music is urban as well as pop, and his mentor is Usher so yeah congrats!!! Its not about being black. Yeah why is Lil Kim nominated when she hasn’t released a album since 2006?? They could of nominated somebody else!!
    Monica being snubbed is like Whitney being snubbed by the Grammy’s. It makes NO sense.

    Its obvious who is going to win. But forget all these people as long as Kelly Rowland gets to perform or something. But hey, forget this MTV Music Awards later in e summer!!!

  52. hopeful May 18, 2010

    Congrats to all nominated, but totally agree, Monica should have been nominated for best femal R&B artist. Her album is fyre, and what happen to SADE, BET really needs to get it together, u would think after last years show which was a hot mess they would have gotten it right this year.

  53. geronimo Deuces May 18, 2010

    I hope chris wins… but i hope they dont bump into each other (him and rihanna) chris is at a very good place right now, no drama.

    i_aint_thinking_about_you_tonight

  54. ~Team Weezy~ May 18, 2010

    OH HHHHHEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLL NNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!! What the F*ck is “Video Phone” being nominated for, let alone mentioned for an award???? GEEZZ!!! This is some crappy stuff. Even the performers sound boring!

  55. Blasian May 18, 2010

    Rihanna is Black so she’s an R&B Artist that has crossed over just like Beyonce

  56. Misty May 18, 2010

    BET is a HAM! They just nominated people that they wanted 2 perform! They did Monica VERY dirty and as much as I love Bey, why are they still nominating her for old material? Can we get out of celebrity’s asses and do something different? Then they got Young Money as a Best NEW artist–does it consist of one person? So how does it get nominated for an ARTIST category?
    There is so much more wrong with the nominees but I just cant 2day!
    BET, #byegirlflygirl

  57. Anthony May 18, 2010

    BET awards is a everlasting joke. Hell, there whole channel is.. They need to go give up already..

  58. Blasian May 18, 2010

    Yesssssssssss BET = Beyonce Entertainment Television

  59. love May 18, 2010

    um where is pleasure p’s nomination…they got ppl like chris brown who really didnt do nothing and album sales wasnt that great but pleasure did his thing in 09, plus had 3 grammy nominations…wow

  60. JonathanGardnerTV May 18, 2010

    WTF!! WHERE IS LETOYA LUCKETT ON FEMALE R&B???? HER ALBUM WAS #1 ON U.S. R&B!!

    WHY IS “VIDEO PHONE” ON BEST VIDEO AND BEST COLLAB?? I LOVE BEE BUT WTF??? WHERE IS LETOYA (FEAT. LUDACRIS) – REGRET!! *KISSES TEETH*

    AND WHY IS RIHANNA ON FOR R&B? SHE IS A POP ARTIST!! SHE’S BARELY AN R&B ARTIST!! JUSTIN BIEBER IS MORE R&B THAN HER! BEING A BLACK SINGER DOES NOT MAKE YOU AN R&B SINGER!!! ARRRGGGH B E T GET IT TOGETHER!!!

    At least they got some decent UK people for the International nominations!

    http://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/JONATHANGARDNERTV

  61. Blasian May 18, 2010

    Rihanna is Black they are always going to say that to any Black Artist no many Pop songs they sing same goes for Beyonce

  62. omar May 18, 2010

    Beyonce will win all of those award washout for her oh may be this award show we able to see her promote her new album

  63. Ghetto Fab May 18, 2010

    CHILD Lemme tell yall how BET tried IT!

    Can we just start off with Beiber?? Why in the hell is he nominated? S*** we should just add Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato to the mix. I didn’t see these fuckers nominating Keke Palmer when she had stuff out. SMH

    Someone needs to tell the idiots at BET that Beyonce and Rihanna are Pop artists NOT R&B artists. They could have easily added a Pop section. Letoya Luckett and Monica should have been in that instead of them two.

    Best Female Hip Hop artist should have been axed. Ester Dean IS NOT A RAPPER. Nicki Minaj has no album neither does Kim. Trina just dropped hers so it can’t be up for nomination and I don’t even know who Rasheeda is.

    Lastly WHY IN THE BLUE HELL IS VIDEO PHONE UP FOR AN AWARD??? The song and video was an EPIC FAIL. Yet they nominated it for best collabo and best video. I’d rather them do Telephone instead. AT least that was a hit!

    All BET does is want some damn attention. They think by adding names like Gaga and Beiber will bring in the shay whities. I don’t know what they were thinking by adding Sweet Dreams to the list. The album came out 2 BET award shows ago. Didn’t she perform s*** off that album at the 2008 BET awards??? LMAO BET is reaching. That’s why their network is S***. Support TV One people!

  64. Kross May 18, 2010

    I was over the BET awards years ago…really…

  65. cherie May 18, 2010

    @RIHANNALOVER

    Please STFU!!! Rih-tarded makes crap music. End of story.

  66. cherie May 18, 2010

    @HIHIHIHI

    Typing in capital letters won’t make your comments any more true or valid.

  67. hopeful May 18, 2010

    B ET awards is like watching a train wreck, you know its goiing to be awful but you can’t seem to turn away.

  68. tara May 18, 2010

    @SDW

    Very few people in the black community listen to Justin Biebonicplague and those who do should be embarrassed. He should NOT be nominated for a BET Award.

  69. Damani May 18, 2010

    Beyonce again….i thought that Sasha fierce jump off was done…..why isn’t Kelly Nominated for “When Love Takes Over” and why isn’t Michelle nominated for her “Unexpected” album…smh…. every year is the same s***

  70. Renee May 18, 2010

    These nominations are a joke. It’s like they pull names out of the air and you have an awards show. What is the point?

  71. TREATMENT28 May 18, 2010

    CONGRATULATIONS TO MY GIRL MONICA!!! I DO NOT CARE WHAT CATEGORY SHE IS NOMINATED IN, I HOPE SHE WINS!! I’LL BE VOTING FOR “EVERYTHING TO ME” VIEWERS CHOICE AS SOON AS THE POLLS OPEN 🙂 STILL STANDING IS AN INCREDIBLE ALBUM AND MONICA HAS MANY MORE HITS TO COME! SHE IS THE BEST!!!! XOXOXOXO

  72. lele May 18, 2010

    i was really looking forward to see Ciara perform.

  73. rightround(U.S.A pride!) May 18, 2010

    While boycotting Ciara, BET manages to nominate Beyonce for every award possible. Smh. They are so far up her ass. Anyway, the show is gonna suck as usual.

  74. Anne May 18, 2010

    Let’s face it, even Beyonce’s late releases from Sasha Fierce are competitive enough w/ the other R&B artists’ releases to earn nominations. ‘Sweet Dreams’ for example was a top ten Billboard 100 hit. Being nominated is one thing, but I think that her best chance at actually winning this year is for best female R&B artists. I think she’ll lose to her hubby in the other categories. Either way, I’ll be pulling for Bey. I think overall she is the strongest female R&B contender, her crossover success doesn’t change her roots as an R&B artist. Taylor Swift wins awards in Pop, Country, & General categories. We shouldn’t be so quick to push away or aside our artists to punish them for having crossover success. Artists like Beyonce and Rihanna are defying and blurring the lines of strict categorization and are marketable in more than one category, just like Justin Bieber & Justin Timberlake.

  75. rightround(U.S.A pride!) May 18, 2010

    Why are r****** stans crying? BET isn’t even her audience. She’s NOT an R&B artist. And I don’t even she’s ever won a BET award.

  76. rightround(U.S.A pride!) May 18, 2010

    think*

  77. lele May 18, 2010

    i love all of her songs its got a meaning to all of her songs

  78. CrackisWack May 18, 2010

    Wow, I’m mad they did Monica dirty like that. Not only should she have been nominated for Best Female R&B artist, she should have won by a landslide… such crap!

  79. geronimo Deuces May 18, 2010

    cuff yo chicks

    G Deuces out………….

  80. BLACk May 18, 2010

    Okay so like yall know i love beyonce, BUT i rather see monica put in R&B Nomination than her, WTF RIHANNA hard video not up for video of the year, okay lets be real,

    BEYONCE Been Carrying the show for over 6 years, 01,03,04,06,07,09 those where the top rated views of the ghetto show, yes, its going to be the same ole stage, same ole people to present, and same ass ole performances,

    Monica needs to perform
    rihanna
    drake
    nicki minaj
    Trey songz

    nobody this year is either worthy for a f****** award, ITS THE YEAR OF FLOPS not even monica, who i love didnt have that good of an album, just because it was R&B dosent mean it was good, it sounds mostly like a leftover jazmine sullivan Album. but i still love monica, YALL WANT R&B U SUPPORTED IT, dont blame pop for killing it, Yall the people who go out and buy the music, YALL DIDNT let alicia keys flop so why yall let monica do it, SMh to the people complaiing about Music today, music changed remmber the days when R&B was blowing up the charts, Usher, DC3, TLC i mean the list goes on, now its mainly pop dance, dont worry its going to come back.lol

    *rambaling to much*.lol

  81. rysinstarr May 18, 2010

Enterprise .Transformation period.. nothing about those categories makes any damn sense.. i mean do b.e.t have a deadline for nominations..they have new shyt mix wif old shyt.. they mite as well nominate dangerously in love for video of the year..the entire female hip hop award is a damn joke.. kim nikki ester n rasheeda have no album , trina album just drop ,,

  82. gracie May 18, 2010

    nice to see MI and P square but i would have loved to see 9ice on the international nominees

  83. TheWise May 18, 2010

    Who really watches BET?

    Monica >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> BET Network

  84. Ben May 18, 2010

    I have so many opinions about these categories, but I have already expressed them on the BET’s “You Talk We Listen” page. Don’t wanna fill up another blog page. Please copy and paste the link below if you wish to hear my “thoughtful” response. I’m ben194, and I go hard on them, you won’t believe it.

  85. C May 19, 2010

    Don’t hate, that video phone was pure fya and you tricks was requesting that on bet, radio and playing that in your cars. Of course it is being nominated, the video was directed by Hype Williams and was flawless, look at the effects, range of colours and graphics used in the video- you guys are tripping out that is one of the best in studio videos to come out other tricks bringing flat ass videos with green screen and to be honest it was one of the most beautiful and eye catching videos to be released from the I am /Sacha Fierce Album after she done already collected MTV awards for Single Ladies and If I were a boy look at the other videos and tell me that Video Phone is not the third best video off the cd does not deserve extra credit. Hmm I wish Brandy would hurry up and bring the fire the game has been missing, They need to add Monica to the damn show: For international I think Corinne Bailey Rae (UK) got this one or Sade (UK) her swag is insane.

  89. lisa May 19, 2010

    BET NEED TO BE SHUT DOWN, THEY KEEP NOMINATING THE SAME OLD CROOKED PEOPLE LIKE JAY Z AND BEYONCE, INSTEAD OF LETTING SOME REAL TALENT PEOPLE GET NOMINATION AND START LETTING SOME REAL ENTERTAINERS GET ON THE STAGE AND PEFORM LIKE CIARA!

    ………………and there was me thinking the Grammys bores me to death in otherwords this show called the BET awards need to be cancelled as its getting extra monotonous and as boring as ever!
    I mean can easily predict the entire concept of the show before it even airs, how boring is that!!!!!!!

    i dont necessarily think skin colour has anything to do with your talent why are people freaking about justin biebers nomination?? Robin thicke,justin timberlake and eminem have all been nominated before and why am i so completely bored outta my mind with these nominations MOST of these people are pop and gone all commercial some of the nominees are alright but could be better for best male hip hop artist how about eminem or dr dre or kanye????

  94. CH3RRY May 20, 2010

    drake deserves an award, and why the hell was ‘hard’ not a video of the year, it was so much hotter than ‘video phone’

    why Whitney houston doesn’t nominated for Best Female R&B Artist,Video Director of the Year ,Viewer’s Choice and centric awards, she was cruelly robbed becauseof drug probles not of her music

  98. al May 26, 2010

  99. Myway June 2, 2010

    @Mr.727
    You’re an idiot! BET is crap however but the thought that excellent talent is not currently available is nonsense! The fixed, fake, controlled media has caused this foolishness by only promoting certain artists and we the MUSIC LOVERS have sat on our lips not saying a damn thing ! Well damn, so I guess like you we are all IDIOTS WHO ARE GETTING WHAT WE DESERVE FOR NOT SPEAKING UP FOR TRUE TALENT.

  100. Myway June 2, 2010

    Justin Bieber does not deserve to be honored at the BET Awards he is a POP atrist not a R&B, smooth Jazz or Hip hop star..WTF is going on BET you suck! VIACOM has completely ruined this station. I guess we are now all supppose to only watch their other network shows MTV and VH1. WAY TO GO MR JOHNSON I HOPE YOU ARE SPINNING IN YOUR GRAVE for selling us down the river!

  101. Enny! June 7, 2010
