Last night’s BET Awards were full of buzzworthy moments. 

Host Chris Rock shined as he brought his trademark controversial jokes to the main stage and took on hot topics like Donald Sterling and Scandal.

Some of the show’s performances also had some must-see moments including John Legend’s tribute to Lionel Richie, Pharrell surprising the audience with Missy Elliott (come back to us, Missy!), and Chris Brown’s electric comeback performance. 

Off the stage certain celebrities were also making waves, from Busta Rhymes to T.I.’s facial expressions—because nothing, and no one, is off limits on Black Twitter. 

What was your favorite part of last night’s BET Awards? Let us know below.
