BET AWARDS: Winners and Recap

Kanye West, Destiny's Child and a reunited Fugees all made headlines thanks to last night's BET Awards. Kanye was named Best Male Hip-Hop Artist and also earned Video of the Year honors for the highly acclaimed "Jesus Walks" clip that was directed by Chris Milk of @radical.media. Destiny's Child capped off their performance of "Cater 2 U" by pulling Magic Johnson, Nelly and actor Terrence Howard on stage to be the recipients of lap dances (Howard was the lucky one to get a dace from Beyonce). Finally, the reunited Fugees made their first TV appearance with a surprise performance to open the show.
