And just like that, the BET Awards are done for another year. If you don’t have Top TV in SA you were like me in that we couldn’t watch the show sadly. I’m hearing that Cissy Houston‘s tribute to the late Whitney Houston was incredibly moving and fantastic. I also hear that Mariah’s performance was on point. Anyone reading this who did manage to catch the awards, please enlighten those of us in the dark.
