BET Awards 2012: Highlights

Check out highlights from the 2012 BET Awards!

"Kanye, I'm-a let you finish but..." - When Jay-Z and Kanye West (a.k.a. The Throne) won the Video of the Year award, the acceptance speech was going normal until it was 'Ye's turn. You'd think Kanye would be the one to start the speech-interruption antics, but when Jay-Z interrupted 'Ye's speech in the style of his infamous Taylor Swift/MTV incident, all he could do was laugh. (Photo: Michael Buckner/Getty Images For BET)

"We'll always have the music..." - Mariah Carey eloquently spoke about her relationship with the late legend Whitney Houston, bringing to light her genuine spirit, and timeless music. “Whitney was not to be messed with. We really got know each other as people, not divas... She was a hilarious person with a cutting sense of humor that’s why we got along. She was real. If you really knew Whitney, you had to love her... I miss my friend, I miss her voice and laughter, but we’ll always have the music.” (Photo: Michael Buckner/Getty Images For BET)
