Here are the best performances from the 2022 BET Awards
Lizzo, Fireboy DML, Doechii, and more took the stage at the annual awards show.
The 2022 BET Awards aired last night, and as usual, the show was filled with great performances from artists both established and rising. From pop to Afrobeats to R&B, the evening had variety: Lizzo celebrated her hit "About Damn Time" with a solid gold, disco-themed performance appropriate for the throwback single, Doechii hypnotized with "Persuasive" and "Crazy," and Fireboy DML's "Peru" and "Playboy" made a strong case for his continued stateside breakthrough.
Other highlights included Ella Mai with Babyface and Roddy Ricch, Latto bringing out Mariah Carey to perform their hit "Big Latto Energy," and a Bad Boy Records medley featuring Jodeci, Mary J. Blige, and Diddy (Shyne even took a break from his political career in Belize to be there!) The night wasn't without its hiccups – Givēon has good reason to be upset over his technical issues – but the showcase of talent was undeniable. Watch below.
