BET AWARDS '09 Rundown

So I just finished watching the BET Awards (SO UPSET I missed Janet Jack’s heartfelt speech!!),  washed my face brushed my teeth and now Im ready to give yall the Ms. Zindzi’s take on the hottest show on television…..or something like that!

bet-awards-background++

IN CASE YOU MISSED JANET JACKSON’S SPEECH, LIKE I DID:

…AND JUST IN CASE YOU MISSED THE JAMIE & NE-YO FINALE, LIKE I ALSO DID:

But let’s talk about more important matters…

VING ACTED UP!

Can somebody please tell me if Ving was on the ‘trone?! And if he was acting, he took it waaaay too far. I mean, swearing? NOT NEEDED!

DID BEYONCE DISAPPOINT US OR WHAT?!

I don’t know about you but after Beyonce’s performance I felt robbed! Robbed of the highlight of the night. I mean at the beginning of her performance I thought “Ok, she’s starting off slow…”, because Beyonce is an electrifying perfomer and I thought ‘Ave Maria’ was merely a lead up to ‘Ego’ or VIDEO OF THE YEAR WINNER ‘Single Ladies’ or some other recent chart-topping single. But boy was I wrong.  After a string of wonderful and angelic vocals the performance was over! Yeah, over. No gyrating, no booty shaking, no glam’d out costumes, NOTHING! I wasn’t feeling her performance tonight at all. I mean really, whats with that damn wedding frock and veil? Please! Not impressed. And you know what else pissed me off?! The fact that Matthew Knowles pushed ‘Toya to the side for this disappointing Beyonce performance.

FASHION CHECK!

ROCSI – If you were locked onto BET’s 106 & Park RED CARPET special you couldn’t have missed Rocsi’s dress! Not sure who the designer was but it was ULTRA GLAM, ULTRA HAPPENING, ULTRA CUTE, ULTRA FAB! It was cuuuute! I really loved it, because it accentuated her subtle curves really well, just thought I had to mention that!

TARAJI - Oooh Child! Honey had that all covered front, long sleeve dress ULTRA SEXY low back.  Reeeeal NICE.

BEYONCE – I think I kinda liked the retro look. the unmoisturized hair is what Im not too sure about. The hair looked long and dry, not a good combo Bey. You should know that Ms. L’Oreal.

MUCH PROBS TO JAY-Z!

I mean DOA is not a catchy tune but it certainly sends a message to the Hip Hop/Rap community and its doing a hell of a job by giving Jay-Z his come-back certificate. I’m looking forward to his next album….

WTH IS DRAKE???

I don’t understand this guy. I haven’t gotten the right vibe from him or his music yet and that “Best I Ever Had” song hasn’t quite reached me yet. And that performance tonight…Ummm, why was he sitting throughout. BORING! Lil Wayne and the Cash Money folk made waaaay too much noise on stage; It got to a point where it seemed like they had nothing to say or rap about…ummm, no. Spare us next time! but seriously ppl, what am I missing, what is so special about Drake?!…

JEREMIH, MY GUY!

You know what? After watching the entire BET Awards Im kinda upset that Jeremih didnt get to perfom inside. He was so good on the RED CARPET, I just though that on the actually center stage he woulda been well appreciated and well recieved.

KEYSHIA COLE & MONICA – WHAT A MESS!

Admittedly stage setup was nice, simple but nice. IDK, but I didnt like the performance at all. There were times when I would hardly be able to hear a what they were singing. And Keyshia’s hair do was a huuuge turn off and now-a-days she’s looking too skinny, not sure Im feeling that. TBH, “Trust” is one of fav. KeyCole album but I really did not enjoy the performance.

RAMDOMS:

It was nice to see Queen La on stage rapping after all this time.

Lil Mama looked a mess with that do.

Loved Ciara’s tribute piece, she did her best.

Kanye and Amber were together ALL NIGHT! I guess that kinda throws the break-up rumour out the window, or does it?

BBV performed “POISON” -  OLD SKOOOOOL! I danced my heart out to that song.

Ummmm….and what was up with the Soul Train guy who gave that long-a$$ speech for The Ojays?! Woooo, thank goodness they didnt let him host the show, we mighta been watching for twice as long.

LMAO @ Eddie Levert…He made the show even more entertaining. Jamie is an incredible host! ;)

RIP MJ…We miss you mayyyne! :)

PS: ALL THE PICS WILL BE IN THE NEXT POST! (I will post ‘em in the AM….Im tiiiiired!)

RIP Fierce Farrah and Magical Michael

I don’t think I have ever heard more shocking news this year, or maybe in a few years, than I did today – June 25th 2009.

Ms.Zindzi Meets Michael Jackson's Neverland 1

When I heard the news I got goose-bumps, and I was in awe. I couldnt get over it. Michael Jackson, KING OF POP, Dead?! *Doing my best Katt Williams voice*: Whaaaaat?! Its bizzare because at the time I got the news that he had passed, news stations hadn’t even confirmed it yet. All the BIG news broadcasting stations were all still saying that Michael had been “hospitalized” or he was in “a coma”. So I kinda just thought it was all just silly rumours.

Ms.Zindzi Meets Michael Jackson's Neverland 2

Ms.Zindzi Meets Michael Jackson's Neverland 3

The “OH NO!” moment came when LA Times and CBS confirmed his death. I felt like…like….I felt sad! I didnt know MJ personally, but I had the chance to view one tenth of his possessions from the Neverland ranch while I was out in LA this past April (I have far toooo many pics to upload!) and seeing all his personal possessions (toys, collectibles, tour bus, gates, etc) made me feel like I knew him. It was truly a life-changing experience to be so close to his life, and to hear now that he has passed, it feels like I’ve lost someone close. I am a huge fan, I have A LOT of his albums and I loved his songs, and Im not talking about the singles or hits, I mean the “Lost Children” kinda tracks. But indeed music, and the world, has truly lost one of its MOST LEGENDARY, if not the MOST LEGENDARY, icons of all time. He was only 50! My Mommy is gonna be 50 in a few years, she better not go no’where darrnit!! I will not function without her. :(

RIP King OF Pop!

RIP King OF Pop!

As if the news about Michael wasn’t enough, the world also lost the legendary actress Farrah Fawcett – Yep the original ‘Charlie’s Angels’ star with the nice blonde hair who also posed for Playboy when she was damn near 50 lost her battle with Anal cancer! Only today I read an article in the news paper that stated that her boyfriend of many many years has been trying to get her to mary him, and after all these years finally accepted, and to hear that she has passed just makes this love story a sad one! Darnnit Farrah you were too fierce! – We’ll Miss you! She did a really great job in “Extremities”…She dies @ age 62. :(

RIP Fierce Farrah!

RIP Fierce Farrah!

A Song For The Moment:

2 icons gone in 1 day? So sad. RIP Fierce Farrah and Magical Michael.
