The Fabulous & Not So Fabulous (2009 BET AWARDS)

Janet Jackson moved the crowd as she fought back her own tears during her touching remembrance of her brother, the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, at this year's BET Awards. Janet reflected passionately, "To you all, Michael is an icon, but to us, he is family."
Michael and Janet, two gifted icons in their own rights, were inseparable.
The lovely Keri Hilson shined in this sequined tube dress, and proved that she is a superwoman as she took home the Best New Artist Award!
The Dynaminc Duo: Beyonce' glistens in Balmain, (although I expected a lot more,) alongside space queen, Amber Rose, and Rap phenomenon, Kanye West.
Amerie is pure elegance! Classy!! Flawless!!
Ciara channelled Michael Jackson with this double-breasted vintage jacket and did so with pride. During the show, she sang her own simple rendition of Michael Jackson's classic, "Change the World."
Alicia Keyes won a humanitarian award alongside Wycelf, (which was well deserved in my book,) and looked absolutely enchanting in this Grecian themed mini dress.
Ne-yo and Jaime Fox ripped the stage with their soulful rendition of the MJ ballad,
"I'll be There."
The incomparable Jaime Fox
The handsome DRAKE (love that boy!) alongside Lil' Wayne performing every-woman's-anthem-right-now-including-mine, SMASH hit, "The Best I Ever Had."
I know it's really the other way around; Monica and Keyshia Cole! I must say, Monica is back and better than ever! Is it just me, but did she out sing, I mean, outsang Keyshia Cole? Wowsers. Monica ripped it! I don't know what it is--Keyshia always clams up during her live performances; but she looked fabulous though!
Oh lawd. Joe Jackson. I swear he is eating up the attention surrounding Michael Jackson's death like fruit cake. . . He couldn't help but mention his new group, that afforded Michael's approval before his passing as he walked the red carpet. It's a bit much, Joe. . . TONE IT DOWN! IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU! It never was.
Bald Cassie. Nice dress, but the hair? The hair deserved two fines, and a trip to see my good friend and celebrity hair stylist, Dr. Boogie!!! LOL
