Awards

BET Award noms announced

By | Published on Thursday 20 May 2010

Queen Latifah will host this year’s BET Awards, it has been announced. These are the annual awards staged by the black-orientated US TV network, which have something of a music bias but also dish out gongs for acting and sports achievements.

Noms wise, Jay-Z has five this year putting him ahead of the pack. Beyoncé, Alicia Keys, Trey Songz and Melanie Fiona all get four nominations each, while the treated-with-weird-respect-by-parts-of-the-American-R&B-and-hip-hop-community-despite-him-being-a-tedious-teen-pop-tyke Justin Bieber is up for Best New Artist.

The awards will take place on 27 Jun. Full noms are here: www.bet.com/betawards.
