Moment #2: Phylicia Rashad’s Rousing Tribute
Phylicia Rashad glided on stage like she was Jesus…or does everything she does feel holy?

Moment #1: Nicki Minaj’s Shady Acceptance Speech
This brings us to our most memorable BET Awards moment. Miss Nicki Minaj. After performing on a motorcycle and sending her male fans straight to the hospital when she twerked, Nicki accepted the BET award for “Best Female Rap Artist” (presented by Floyd Mayweather, who announced she won without even opening the nominee envelope) and literally just took off her shoe and threw her shady boots at Iggy Azalea.
“This is my 5th year winning this award,” said Nicki batting her eyelashes. She made a point to blast any female rap artist who doesn’t write her own rhymes and is as fake as their plastic surgery. Yeah, Nicki Minaj talking about plastic surgery. We digress.
Take that!
