Beyonce To Perform At 2008 BET Awards

Published: Sunday 8th Jun 2008 by Sam
Beyonce To Perform At 2008 BET Awards In a recent interview with XM radio, rapper Lil’ Wayne confirmed that he will be taking to the stage with Usher and Beyonce to open the 2008 BET Awards with the ‘Love In This Club’ remix:

“It was suppose to be a surprise that I and Beyonce are performing with Usher when I open up the show.”

I’m guessing he was high or something when he let the cat out of the bag; emphasis on the word ‘surprise’ lol. In any case, no doubt all eyes will be on Beyonce’s showing, which will serve as a record 6 performances at the annual ceremony. It’s evident, BET know the ‘Deja Vu’ singer is a ratings winner.

BUT YAYYYYY. lil wayne is dumb tho. i woulda liked it to be a surprise. i wouldnt be surprised if they change it because the bet awards opening act is always supposed to be a surprise and since it isnt anymore they might change it. hopefully not tho

    ppl only hate on beyonce because shes so big. if beyonce wasnt so famous i bet u the ppl who hate her would do so. they juss cant stand that shes so famous. Why does she gotta sit down somewhere? did her leg break? is she tired? did she sprain her ankle? i dont see any reason for her to sit down. shes perfectly healthy and talented and beautiful. she deserves to be up on every f***** stage. she works her ass off. yea i bet u would like her to sit down. so that ur fav artist that ant sing for s*** cud be up there instead of bee. but that aint happenening babyyyy. go shoot urself cuz the queen bee is here to staYYYYYY!!!

    Poor Usher. His performances have been lackluster. When he open his mouth it turns fans away. His album was garbage. So his best bet at going Platinum is to get Beyonce to perform with him. The Higher they go the Harder they fall. Chris Brown is going to perform does he need another star to show how good of a performer he is?

    For the coo coo above me claiming Usher as king. Usher as king should have been able to sell well past 400,000 copies. Alicia and Mary did better than Usher in sales.

    Beyonce’s my fav singer but I’d prefer it if Michelle performed because she needs the promotion. Rihanna will suck as usual. CB hopefully will put on a good performance.

    She is so s***, it kills me!

    She is deffff gonna show how it is done!

    Ciara needs to be performing she is missin on this list…but i heard she performing with nelly…and i also heard she performin her new single..”HIGH PRICE”

  22. Anonymous June 8, 2008

    Im not gonna hate on her dancin skills, Im not gonna hate on ger singing capabilties, Im not gonna hate on her looks. Every damn body knows that Beyonce is badass and she can really sing and really dance and she looks great…but for real…..she really does need to go sit the f*** down. I’ve been sooooo sick of B. Its like Im being force fed Beyonce Knowles, for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Take a break, Im pretty sure your career will still be here waiting for you when you get back.

  23. ND June 8, 2008

    That would have been the illest surprise ever had Lil’ Wayne not spoilt it!!! I can’t wait to see this performance cos the song is good but will need life performed live so Im looking forward to what will happen.

    I hope Usher does part 1 with Keri, den part 2… that’ll be sick!!!!

    Yeah, Beyonce needs a rest. Take time to perhaps read or study something.

    It is most peculiar that someone that hasn’t released an album in almost two years is still performing annually at the BET awards. Better her than R. Kelly…

    We shouldn’t be surprised to see Solange, Kelly or Michelle perform, as it seems that that having Beyonce appear or perform somewhere carries those three as riders.

    ^So true. Michelle has a single and video out. Would it not make sense for her to perform by herself at the BET? Let’s face it Kelly and Michelle will not survive without Beyonce. I am a little curious to see if Michelle can pull off a performance. We all remember too well, how Kelly was so out of breath singing BUMP LIKE THIS at the BET awards.

    Rihanna’s voice is irritating as hell when she sings live so no she shouldn’t perform at the BET awards but knowing Chris Brown he’ll drag her along there with him. And I agree they should get Ciara to perform now she puts on a hyped performance. Also Sam ain’t hating on Rihanna she just be tellin the truth and Rihanna stans hate to hear it. Rihanna is a pretty girl but yall put tooooo much hype around her nothing much even special about her. She gets a haircut and yall go crazy lmao.

    Beyonce is gonna do what she always does on stage;shake her weave and her ass,and people are gonna eat it up like they always do. As long as there are no stairs involved, I’m sure it will be a pleasant experience for both Beyonce and the audience. Just not me.Other than Alicia Keys and Mary J Blige there is no one else I’m interested in seeing,and I can view their performances on youtube (or this blog). So,more than likely I wont be watching.

    I think that Beyonce is a wonderful entertainer. The girl has it going on. But i am just sick of seeing and hereing her. She never takes a break and i know someone is gonna say that she makin her money who cares. She just needs to take a year off no movies, no destinys child, no cameos, no commercial no ads just go away.Then comeback with a new look sound and movie. Something Please

  32. kaydeezy June 9, 2008

    I don’t get how people are so tired of Beyonce when she hasn’t performed in over a year. (except for with Tina at the Grammys). You can’t be mad at her. Performing is what she does. How about you take a year or two off your job. I hear your co-workers are sick of seeing you everyday.

    Beyonce + high ratings for BET. none of the other b****** are going to give BET that Rating. check Nielson Rating the next day . I bet the first 5 minutes of the show the ratings will be the highest. after that the ratings will level off.

    I dnt get u haters… U’re tired of seein Beyonce, but yet u’re not tired of seeing Lil Wayne everywhere with his retarded self jumpin on people’s tracks addin his verse 2 them. He’s been shoved down our throats since Jay-Z retired in 2004, so if anyone needs to sit down & disappear for a year, then its Weezy becuz people r tired of him too.

    Let me tell yall somethin about Bee & Weezy. These 2 artist will never disapper, Y? Becuz they r the best in their field rite now. If the 2 of them were to make a song together, bet it’d be hot!!! People wud eat it up, Y? Becuz again they r the best & there’s no denyin that. Bee & Weezy will never go away until they decide or until GOD decides. So get over ur hate & move on!!!

  44. Anonymous June 10, 2008

    As Mo’Nique told Beyonce last year “You r truly the queen at what you do, so keep givin it 2 us”, & as Jay-Z says in his verse on his song with Lil Wayne, “I’m sittin on the throne, with my heir”, these 2 statements r very true. So ppl, jus stop hatin. Jer. u need to stop the most. U r a sad individual & a loser if all u can do is post hate comments about every female singer but Ashanti… As if she’s that great!!! Her new album mite have been hot, but its goin 2 take more than jus an album to catupolte her to the top. And u spittin out hate comments about Beyonce is not goin 2 help her either. So please get some help!!!!

    I only want kelly to perform
    SILWMX
    LOVE AGAIN

    cause if she doesnt there is really no need to perform
    as for beyonce she is really starting to annoy me
    and as for michelle i hope she is good
    cause her perfamances are kinda boring
    anyways I hope this award is good cause last year kinda sucked

  47. Mark June 11, 2008

    Yes, I said KELLY ROWLAND should perform!!! N she should or DC just do a Destiny’s Child Medley that would be hot to see them all on stage again! Kelly should perform either The Show or Work! Michelle shouldn’t perform at all because her songs seem with and this is THE BET AWARDS (Black Entertainment Television)! I WANT KELLY ROWLAND TO PERFORM AT THE 2008 BET AWARDS!!! Last year the messed her microphone up, so the need to give her a chance the redeem herself, and I just want to see her perform! Kelly is a GOOD singer, THE BEST OUT OF DC!!!

  48. Anonymous June 11, 2008

    Beyonce can’t help that when her name is mentioned, people (the fans & the haters) act like idiots. First off, Michelle is performin by HERSELF, do any of u understand what that means. And Beyonce is perfomin WITH… let me say it again, but this time i spell it out… BEYONCE IS PERFORMING WITH USHER & LIL WAYNE… That means its not a full performance, jus a guest star appearance. Wow, u haters act as if she’s performin one of her songs. As soon as the headline read “Beyonce to perform at the 2008 BET Awards” half of u probably didnt read it b4 u started spittin out ur garbage. As for my opinion, i’m glad that Beyonce is performin @ the 2008 BET Awards, cuz her performances always turn out to b hot. Dont get made becuz Bee has more juice than half of the female singers out today!!! Get over ur hate & move on!!!

  50. Youngin June 12, 2008

    I hope she does perform because without her, The BET AWARDS AINT S***!!! Yeah I said it, They aint S*** without Beyonce, DC opened the Show in 2001, had the best performance, In 03 she had the best performance with CIL, in 2005DC had the best performance for Cater To You, In 2006, She opened the show again and had the best performance. Last year, Get Me Bodied was the best performance and She SAVED KELLY’S WEAK ASS PERFORMANCE AT THE END! And I hope she shut it down this year. F*** the Haters Bey and do what you do best,rip up the stage!
