Tonight is the BET Music Awards (8:00/7:00c) and all eyes are watching. The BET awards have really grown over the last three years, so much so, that I prefer it over the MTV Music Awards, which was so boring last year.
The “B” in BET obviously stands for “Beyonce” because she showed out and brought the level of performances up a few notches. Here is a list of the categories and nominees for tonight. My money is on Beyonce, but my heart is on Jennifer Hudson.
