MJ Tribute at BET Awards 06/27/10
Eminem, Jackson Tribute Join BET Awards Lineup
Eminem, Alicia Keys. Usher, T-Pain and a tribute to Michael Jackson have all been added to the slate for this year's stocked BET Awards, airing live from Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium on June 27th. T.I. will make his first major award show performance since his incarceration and Kanye West will return to an awards show stage after his 2009 VMAs controversy at the event, plus Drake, Ludacris, Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross, Diddy – Dirty Money and many more are booked for the big show. Queen Latifah will host. As Rolling Stone previously reported, Drake and Jay-Z lead this year's field with the most nominations.
With Eminem joining Drake and Kanye West on the BET Awards bill, the lineup is just a Lil Wayne shy of a potential performance of their joint hit "Forever." Eminem, Drake and Weezy performed the track, sans Kanye, at this year's Grammys, and unless Weezy phones in his verse live from Rikers, it's unlikely a repeat performance will happen. However, given the powerhouse lineup, the door is open for any number of collaborations: Drake and Alicia Keys' "Fireworks," or Ludacris and Nikki Minaj on "My Chick Bad." Insiders tell RS there's one big performance viewers can definitely expect to see: T-Pain, Ludacris, Rick Ross and a special guest all teaming with DJ Khaled on "All I Do is Win."
This year's BET Awards will also feature a pair of special presentations: Prince will be in the house to receive a much-deserved Lifetime Achievement Award, and the Jackson family will be on hand to remember the King of Pop just two days after the first anniversary of Michael's death. Jackson's This Is It was also nominated in the Best Movie category. The BET Awards and the Jackson family previously paid tribute to Jackson at last year's ceremony, which was held just three days after Michael died on June 25th, 2009. John Legend will also be the recipient of the 2010 Humanitarian Award.

Not Michael Jackson the producer, movie maker... <!-- s;) -->;)<!-- s;) --> <!-- s;) -->;)<!-- s;) --> <!-- s;) -->;)<!-- s;) --> <!-- s;) -->;)<!-- s;) --> That will be next year when he wins all those awards for a unique reality show. <!-- s --><!-- s --> <!-- s --><!-- s --> <!-- s --><!-- s -->
Short clip of Jeffrey teaching MJ:

what truth, may I ask? <!-- s:shock: -->:shock:<!-- s:shock: --> I belive she's not messing with beLIEvers, it would be really nasty.. but I'm not sure which bro is she talking to. Who has a secret and fans who should know the truth?? There's only one IMO and that's Michael.
Michael is not Janet's only bro, you know.
IMO, she was talking ABOUT MJ TO someone other than MJ, one of her brother.
BUT maybe not gone....maybe just now being given the tributes and Honors he has deserved all along <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) --> <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) --> <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) --> <!-- s;) -->;)<!-- s;) -->
Chris Tucker yes he should be there!
He will be present to receive his lifetime achievement award, but Dr. Funkenberry announced that he won't perform, but with Prince you just never know, you just never knoaw...........
