I expect a clean sweep for Nicki Minaj
Yes, because the EBT Awards is the only place where HOnika can bribe people and get awards unfairly. Iggy kicked her a** at the Billboard Music Awards. Iggy will also have a Grammy before HOnika. The EBT Awards are worthless.
DAMN!!! #sips
IS LIL KIM EVEN INVITED?
@islandboi242 are you done catching coconuts for your slavemaster???
@Islandboi242 Lil’ Kim was treated like the Queen she is at the VMAs in Brooklyn. You can keep pretending like Kim is irrelevant, but wait for her album campaign. You’re about to learn that “irrelevant” is not a term that applies to LEGENDS.
Was Lil Kim invited? I seem to be missing his name. I heard he’s got an album out.
No the BET awards represent the truth that is Nicki is the best female, like seriously who TF else deserves to win. If Iggy deseved her awards last night they should’ve have televised them all, which they didn’t thankfully. She didn’t even wanna speak or look at the camera and told us what we already know, that Charli made Fancy what it was. Although Fancy shouldn’t have been nominated as it was released before the nomination dates but ????
And it’s funny when you lot do the whole grammy talk like your fave got hers from her own merit. Last time I saw she won from a pop collab that would’ve won without her
Where is HOnika’s collaboration Grammy then? HOnika has 394930940390493 collabs, and she can’t even win ONE GRAMMY for ANY of them. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
You Barfz said that Bang Bang was DEFINITELY going to win a Grammy. And the Grammy Award goes to… SAY SOMETHING by A Great Big World feat. Christina Aguilera! Your fave HOnika is a Grammyless FLOP!
True iggy beat nicki 3times nicki didn’t win any but she will at the b.e.t awards she should win best female hip hop and shoulda have way more nominees.but she’s not gonna win.they gon make it nickis night.smh
Iggy!!! BEYT tbh. Stay licking her ass b**** released nothing fucken nothing but nominated? I wish that ugly blue ivy dies. Omfg I hate Beyoncé so much. I wish her death
don’t wish death on no one that’s f***** up
You clearly have a mind problem
Just u wish death on The Queen SCREEEEEEEEAMS she owns your Pathetic Weak Miserable Mind kii kii kii ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
who says stuff like that? I know what you are
…You are a child of Satan. #thedevilisamongus #prayfortheyouth #satangetbehindme #jesusbeafence
ur Father must have R**** u LAST NIGHT
Trust me.you can’t hate this idiot more than i do. Sickening.
I hope Beyoncé pays this award show dust as well. I’m rooting for The Soil(Susan) or Yemi Alade(Johnny). AKA doesn’t deserve to win, he’s too cocky. And imagine the meltdowns if piggy breaks Nicki’s BET winning streak.
I hope he doesn’t win because we won’t hear the last of it
I dont know why they even nominated him, Cassper Nyovest should have been nominated instead.
That’s a fair list. Now who’s performing?
yes at ciara’s nomination! even though she will not win against beyonce and co she can perform and do promo
not a bad nomination.
I want Jazmine, Tinashe, and August to win. I’m pretty sure BET is going give that award to Beyoncè bc they are still trying to make up for that digusting Blue hair comment, so there is no need to even debate over that category. Every thing else is irrelevant.
You want the worst talents on this list to win??? Chile…
I didn’t know Jazmine was untalented, but ok…
That’s your problem, Lamb. You overthink things like your fave’s current vocal abilities. She’s no Patti, who could still sing as well as she did five decades ago.
LOL ok. Are you done now?
Congrats to everyone… yes yes yes, even Beybola.
Yes girl even Aaliyahs movie did well
Biiiiiitch!!!! You got me gagging severely over Beybola’s name. Go in!!!
And that name is more popular than your fav bae
Slay Bey!!!
YESSSSSSS..Beyonce got this hands down..especially if she shows up..
Only way I see IGGY winning best female rapper is if BET want create drama… Nicki still killing all the females on the list with most all of her singles certified, album broke broke another record with first week sales and her tour was sold out…
Nicki will walk out empty handed like she did at the billboard awards. Iggy will snatch that award away from nicki. Iggy prove nicki at the billboard awards that she is not to be disrespected or played with. Iggy ain’t here to play Barbie play house with you nicki. She bout that murda business. She getting to the paper while you sit around and lay with a Philly crackhead named meek mill. Don’t play with iggy. Her team will come for that ass h**
I SCREAMED!!!! From the looks of Iggy’s face last night…..I would say that she’s down to play Barbie dream house. Did u see her botched surgery?? I became sick to my stomach. She was still high from the anesthesia and then had the AUDACITY to try and hide her face from the cameras. Like c’mon man. What is life?
I’m already happy J Cole,Justin,1D & Iggy already won cause I don’t Stan for flopps.Lol at my baby Iggy beating nic for best female rap lol.See unlike Nicki’s hood a** Iggy gave Kim credit unlike a certain thief.Please guys vote for Cece cause she is the only fave who really hasn’t won this year
crazy b****
That’s what all your boyfriends said after leaving you
If Uggly wins, white people who make up over 60% of America’s population will start tuning in to BET. It’s a win-win for everyone. ????
Oh and for hip pop I’m rooting Iggy and J Cole.My King and Queen
Beyonce gotta bag this and I want Zendaya to win
What if Azalea Banks wins the best female hiphop award??? Will she show up since she only likes crusty white pēnis?
No shade but Iggy’s “Fancy” >>>>> Trina’s 16 year career. #smdh
Omg I hope AKA wins cause he’s my favorite south African rapper. Look at that trick Tinmanshe thinking she stands a chance that joke.The illetrate barfs will die when Iggy beats sticky again.fancy hit underchart conda
funky filthy crazy biiiitch
Do you and Cokeanna share the same background dealer and IQ rate.You are clearly ill
Congratz to everyone even Rihanna even tho we know she doesn’t go to Black Award shows anymore.
Why should she go??? She don’t be winning anything when they nominates her…….If your fave was always giving a nomination But never winning anything, do you think she would show up???
Samantha stop fapping and post about the good sis Azealia Banks dragging Nicki + BET for filth on twitter. Lemme head over to that other site.
Sam post about Azealia Banks.
I hope CiCi wins an award and performs. I wonder will Nicki win again. That’s probably going to be one of the most anticipated awards.
Azealia Banks making a mockery out of herself again. Why can’t she just shut up.
I know they gonevgi e it to Nicki. But it would be epic to see Azealia win.
I hope Cici f****** performs . BET kisses beyonces ass I hope she won’t even show up because of that Blue Ivy comment.
They sure do kiss that ass. Honestly I thought for a black awards show they would be more lenient towArds Ciara since that seemed to be the only outlet that she received awards from. Maybe they will have a change of heart this year. Who knows. I’m glad Rihanna pays them complete dust. They are so unjust. Sliding her name into nominations for shock value when they know they don’t bang with her. Beyoncé will most likely take that win. Seeing that no one else in the category had anything out last year but her.
Ciara’s performance at the 2013 BET Awards is one of the best performances on that show in recent years. I think it’s one of her finest live moments. BET was hella trash for that comment they made about Blue Ivy and although I can understand her receiving this many noms this year, I think they’ve done this to compensate for that stunt they pulled after the VMAs.
Wow Michelle Williams got a nomination.
Y’all noticed how her career kinda went up after she fired Matthew Knowles?
She’s no Beyoncé, but I give credit where it’s due ????????????????????????????????????????????????
I need anybody involved with BET Awards to explain to me why they are paying Jason Derulo dust. I don’t care if he is a pop singer or whatever, can you please give some credit to the guy? What’s up with that for real?
And did they really put The Weeknd in the Centric category? Isn’t “Earned it” a Billboard Top5 hit? Thank God, he is a lock for a Grammy next year.
I would love our entertainers to stop showing up to those white award shows but BET stays deceiving me with that same ol’ same ol’.
Chris Brown, Usher and Trey Songz ain’t the only young black entertainers we got. Can we get Jason Derulo, Jeremih and the Weeknd on stage for a change?
BTW, Jamal & Hakeem better be performing. Don’t even try it. And Rihanna’s replacement as well a.k.a Nathalie Larose.
I so much agree with you. Jason Durelo should be nominated. He is young fresh and very talented.
beyonce released an album in 2013 and being nominated again? Ok
I mean she did release 7/11 at the end of 2014 which peaked at #13 & has over 200 million streams literally breaking the internet it was well deserved
Ugh I just wished they split up R&B to R&b/Pop and R&B/Soul because Rihanna and Jhene are not even in the same lane :/
This show is tired. They give Beyoncé every damn thing. Yawn. It’s the same shyt over & over !
So your saying 7/11 doesn’t deserve a nominee?
Queen of the grammys
Queen of EBT
Funny how bey and jay got so big they hasn’t performed on a bet stage in so many years. Artist like stinky minaj cfist brown cerror Rihgoat still need all the exposure they can get and still flop flop flop like flop flop flop lol at hey selling 2.2 mill in the states and Nikki can’t even go plat and rich can’t get release date
Everyone go to Azealia Banks’ Twitter and see the SHADE she threw at EBT and Nicki Minaj. Everyone know that this award show is trash! Hahahahahahahahahahaha!
Tinashe and Ciara deserve to win their categories. Good luck to all
Azealia is so FAKE now shes dragging Nicki
Not bad BET. I hope The Queen collabo album comes out n the next couple of months or so. I know BET would do anything to have her grace the stage! Come on BET, put togather some slayage in performances.
The problem I have with the BET Awards is that they’re too damn predictable. The same people win every year. Iggy should’ve won last year as she had a bigger year than any other female rapper. Iggy or Tink should win this year. Beyonce slways wins female R&B/Pop too. Give it to someone else like Jasmine or Jhené. I’d like to see fresh faces performing and winning this year.
Funny how yall try to downplay these awards but when it’s in beyonces favor yall praise it, her obsessed f** fans are so annoying
These lists are always the same every year, they need to revamp their televised award show.
Congrats to all the nominees!
the lists are very predictable, and so are the winners
I think iggy better leave that her fake rap behind and do different things because the one and only queen Nicki minaj will win it
boring…
iggy better go and smoke because her daydreaming has never gone that far Nicki all the way
Hope Beyoncé actually physically graces the stage this year it’s been since 2009 & 2012 since she actually showed up maybe a “feeling myself” performance or something from the joint album ? ….hmmmm
Nice nominees… Nicki has that hiphop win by default,,um happy for The Soil in that african cartegory,i am also glad they recognised AKA but God knows we will never hear the end of it with his crazy ass,they should have nominated Casper Nyovest instead
Nice list of those artist and whoever win their award ???????????????????????? good for him or her
Usually don’t watch anything with uterus beyonce trying to take over. Needs to take her tired dumb self and sit down
