The 2020 BET Awards happened last night, with Beyoncé, Lizzo, Megan Thee Stallion and Roddy Ricch among the winners. On top of the that, being the first time it was being held virtually, the show went off without a hitch and had some amazing performances. Roddy Ricch put on a clinic on doing the most while being held under quarantine, DaBaby and Lil Wayne had some deep performances honoring the Black Lives Matter movement with the latter honoring the legendary Kobe Bryant.
Wayne Brady also came out of nowhere and slayed a tribute to Little Richard, who passed away only a few weeks ago. Below is the list of winners and some of the performance.
