When actor/musician/comedian Jamie Foxx walks onto the Microsoft Theater stage in Los Angeles on June 24, it will mark the Academy Award and Grammy Award winner?s second time as host of the BET Awards.

Foxx, host and executive producer of the interactive game show Beat Shazam, first helmed the BET Awards in 2009. That?s when the ceremony doubled as an all-star tribute to Michael Jackson, who had died unexpectedly several days earlier. Saturday Night Live?s Leslie Jones hosted last year?s show, which featured memorable performances from Bruno Mars, Mary J. Blige, Migos and lifetime achievement honorees New Edition.

DJ Khaled leads the 2018 nominees slate with six nods, including album of the year, two for best collaboration (?Wild Thoughts? with Rihanna and Bryson Tiller; ?Top Off? with Jay-Z, Future and Beyonc?) and video of the year. Kendrick Lamar follows close behind with five nominations, while SZA and Migos each have four.

BET exec. VP/head of programming Connie Orlando serves as executive producer of the awards show this year along with Jesse Collins Entertainment CEO Jesse Collins. As in previous years, the ceremony will close out the BET Experience at L.A. Live presented by Coca-Cola (June 21-24), now in its sixth year. The 18th annual BET Awards will air live on June 24 (8 p.m. ET).

I was low-key hoping they?d mess by letting Mo?Nique host again  :kii:

XXX.

I?m interested to see what stars they can get in the building this year besides Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown and Migos.

She has an album out June 15 (allegedly).  She is in no room to miss promo opportunities.

But I know what you mean.  We all know Cardi is winning Best Female Hip Hop.  Maybe Nicki will open the show, and then leave.

They should give R&B a lot of attention. Tank, SZA, Mya, Ro James, HER, Daniel Caesar etc should all be on the main stage or preshow

Ultra goodbye ciao cya gorl

tha BET 'wards still happen?

🦚

POOr bet. Nobody of importance will be there.

No bey and no Cardi.

Maybe they are lucky and Rihanna will toss them a bone.
