    1. Bet it’s funny giving the best actress award to Issa Rae, and I like Issa but I haven’t seen a difference in characters she played from her TV character role to the movie ones. Queen and slim was a over hyped movie were the characters got too many passes towards the end, they should have giving it to Just Mercy or Bad Boys. I haven’t seen Harriot so I can’t advocate for it. That’s why I don’t bring myself to watch Bet just their lack of what’s fans love and what actual talent should win.

    2. BET doesn’t seem very inclusive. Where are all the white, or Asian nominees?

      It seems like ONLY black lives matter at the BET awards
