2019 BET Award Nominations Are In!
May 18th, 2019
Summertime is near and so is the BET Awards. This year’s award show will air live from Los Angeles on June 23 at the Microsoft Theater. Just yesterday BET finally released the nominations for the 2019 Award show and the competition is tough! Cardi B leads with seven nominations, following behind is Drake with five, Beyoncé along with Travis Scott and J. Cole with four. So far there’s very little information on this year’s award show. There is no list of performers and we don’t know who’s the host. One thing we’re for sure of is that we won’t be disappointed. Last year we know we had Jamie Foxx as the host and BET always celebrates amazing performers like Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Meek Mill, Ella Mai and so many more! Check out the nominations below!
