…that was the best part of the show!! love them all!!
r.i.p left eye! ♥
First! I love TLC!!!!
firrrrrrrrrrrrst
I look better - -
mmm…TLC looks likey theyre still living in the 90s to me…
5th!
SWV!!! still listen to all the albums love them! still remember the videos and them long ass nails! so wanted to be them when i was a lil!
dont go chashing waterfalls.
{{{{ I luv them…give me thoze bellbottomzzzzzzz }}}}}}}}
It's good to see SWV finally cut their fingernails…
OMFG, watching those old video's made me throw up in my mouth a lil'
I LOVE LOVE LOVE En Vogue!!! I am glad to see all 4 there!
This was a great part of the show…Glad Alicia keys brought them along though she looked the color of a Oompa Loompa, just horrible…=)
They should call themsevles Sistas Without Stylists instead.
Can these women PLEASE find some clothes that FIT?
Stuffing a size 14 ass into size 10 pants does none of us any favors!
SWV looks like a group of Tranny prostitutes Eddie George's husband looks the worst. Don't be nice they are STILL Busted!
swv look they need a good stylist, they're looking like a tranny mess!
Ouch. It hurts not to see Left Eye not up there too…
Wow. Those are the worst looking women I've ever seen. All gross.
I'm in LOVE with T-Boz's pants.
wow time doesn't forgive ANYONE!
She looks so hoooot! I love her, I am her big fan!

Missed the show. Enough of those leggings already! From a child of the '80s, teen of the '90s, I wore them then and looking back, leggings were not cute and they are not cute now. Not to mention that it's a "style" that's been over for more than a year, let it go ladies and put on a pair of pants, shorts-scratch the shorts-, a skirt, or simply a dress!
ewwwwwwwwww.
RIP Lisa

OMG!!! SWV hit the wall!!!! I didn't even recognize them! Age and weight happen, yes, but they are too old and too heavy for their clothes. STINK!!
What would Rev. Jackson and that other douchebag Sharpton say if there were a WET Awards, as in white? I'd bet they would call it racist and protest it.
They all look good, although it looks like SWV ate all their profits. They are now SWV (sisters with vouchers)
Re: Jill – Explain to me how the black community celebrating the achievements of the black community is racist? There is nothing worse in America than a failed white american…so much hate and anger inside.
Re: Hick – Simple…MTV for example doesnt just SHOW WHITE PEOPLE and there awards dont have only WHITE people….So, her point is why is BET ONLY for blacks && if Whites were to have come up with a channel only Showing/promoting white people, people would have talked shit….&& i can say I partially agree with her….
Those are my girls!! TLC = living legends! Rest in peace Lisa!!
TLC = LIVING LEGENDS.. everyone stood up for Waterfalls. They still have it! Lisa was looking down on them with a big smile.. RIP
Re:Weezy[E]BaBi
I find it funny that anyone has a problem with black people having one channel out of the 100's that belong to the white folks. give me a break in the early days MTV or VH1! didn't have anyone black on them…they may do now but took a while to get there. Do we judge Spanish folks for having there Telumundo and they have at least 3 different Spanish channels on my cable plus HBO Latino.. I dont see the problem and BET have more than just Black people at there awards Shows… seem to remember Robin Thicke performing last year….and wasn't fergie on stage last night…..hmmm i can go on and on…but let the Fools do what they do best.
this MADE MY WEEK!! STOP USING THIS SITE FOR RACIST REMARKS!! GO TO RUSH'S OR HANNITY'S SITE FOR THAT SHIIIIIIIT!!! SWV, TLC AND EN VOGUE FUCKN RUUULE!!!
i somewhat agree with Jill. It's not that having a black awards show is racist it's just very hypoctritical to what they have been trying to achieve all these years and that is equality. There is no equality in having an awards show made especially for any race and it's quite obvious that if white people had their own special awards show people would go fucking crazy and that WOULD be considered rasism. i don't even think it would be allowed to air. how is that fair at all? nobody should be seen just for their colour. our world is still just as fucked up as when blacks were slaves.
@ Weezy[E]BaBii…Excuse me little one. MTV used to NEVER play black artists until Michael Jackson came along and changed that. So your first point is debunked. Get off the myspace and cell phone and go to the library or use your 'internets" and take a look back at television history to see the role minorities played in television and film. You will only hurt and hold yourself back in life with that attitude. It's not good.
that was one of the most fun segments in the show! it was nice to see all the ladies, whether they've aged and gained a few pounds or not. one of the swv girls actually just got back from japan doing a multi-artist soul review where a friend of mine was one of the concert organizers. they paid her out the AZZ and she is finacially set for the year after that tour! as long as these ladies are working in some capacity or other it's still nice to see them around after all these years, baby-bearing hips and all.
I love TLC! THEIR OUTFITS ARE SO UNFORTUNATE THOUGH!
Re: Hick – You guys have CMT & blacks have BET. I say we call it even.
Back to the post, that performance was THE BOMB!!! En Vogue is absolutely one of my favorite girl groups of all time! SWV & TLC were great as well
uh…isnt that salt -n- pepa on the bottom? not svw?
BET CHANNEL IS RACIST; thats like white people starting a all white channel that would last in the media for an hour.
Re: meghanhardy – meghanhardy your hott very sexy photo
oh be quiet Telemundo is for the Hispanics. I miss Lisa Lopez so much.
Lisa, Chile, and all the women from En Vogue still look good. Where's Salt N Papa? That would have been the creme de la creme of the 90s music scene.
Re: Char – Comfort is never out of style. I love leggings and a lot of celebs still wear them. Maybe you're the one who's not with it? Cuz a lot of people still rock the leggings.
You've got to be kidding me! The only one of them who looks even halfway decent is the chick from En Vogue wearing the strappy sandals. Everybody else looks like their clothes are either too big or too small. Not to mention ugly.
Re: Jill – Here we go again, there always has to be one. Get therapy to release all that pent up anger. Move on already, there are more important things in life than attacking someone without provocation.
Re: Sasho – Thank you. I was going to say the same thing. MTV and VH1 only started putting African-American music on their channel to keep up the changes in music. Initially, when it first started, it was all white–probably before they were born.
Re: paige – You wish you looked that good. You're just a hatin' bitch with nothing better to do. Probably some pimply faced, fat bitch, with no man, no life, and nothing better to do but bitch!
I LUV SWV!!! the lead singer can sing so well!! I still listen to their songs all the time, they made so many great songs!! like "right here" best song of the 90s!!! girls come back we need to hear real singing back in the charts!!
Re: Sasho – Re: Hick – I never said I had a problem I was simply explaining the girls point to the other guy…Notice i said i partially agreed with her….Of course Spanish people have telemundo ITS A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE….Im half black I find nothing wrong with BET Im saying though if there was a channel that only played white music stupid people out there would talk shit……am i wrong?!?! I dont get what you people misunderstood from my first comment
Re: ash – — this was exactly my point….I love how Im getting all the shit for my comment that didnt even say anything negative
Telemundo is for Hispanics, The Asians also have their own channel, even The Native Americans have a channel devoted strictly to American Indians. The Gays had a channel but it went off the air from lack of viewership. Now I hear the Arab Americans are starting their own channel in Michigan. Did you know that in Miami the Cubans have a channel for Cubans? Everyone does it. it seems.
Wow! Cool to see TLC, SWV and En Vogue again! I Remember SVW classic "Right here", so good. TLC had some great hits with "No Scrubs", "Red light special", "Waterfalls". They were great. Just as Salt N Pepa was back in the day. And will this be the return of the Funky Divas - En Vogue? I really liked that classy funky rnb pop dance En Vogue made. "Hold On", "My Lovin (You´re never gonna get it)", "Whatta Man", "Dont Let Go (Love)", "Riddle" and superb and still modern - "Free Your Mind". I hope they will bring som great songs on the charts!
THE SHOW WAS GREAT AND I LOUV LUV LUV LUV SWV PROPS TO THEM. GEEZ PEOPLE STOP BITCHIN. ITS A BLACK SHOW JUST LIEK THEY ARE COUNTRY MUSIC AND LATINA SHOWS. GEEZ GET OVER IT, HELL FERGIE WAS THERE
FIRST I GOTTA TAKE MY HAT OFF TOO ALICIA KEYS FOR BRING SO MANY MEMORIES BACK , MANNNNN WHEN SWV CAME UP I THINK I ALMOST HAD TEARS CAUSE I LOVE THEN AND THEN THIS WAS THE BIG BANG CAUSE U NEVER SEE ENVOGUE THE ORIGINAL MEMBERS TOGETHER THAT WAS MAGICAL. WOW AND TLC WATERFALLS TO TOP IT ALL OFF WOW I LOVE IT CAN'T SAY NOTHING BUT WOW
whiplash from that flash back.
:P
why don't that white chick shut her crap! you're one of the reasons people of every race needs their own channel and yes you are raciest b-tch if you weren't why would a black channel bother u
LEGENDS!
I wish I could have been there!
Thanks for the Pictures PEREZ!
Uh, weren't the girl groups of yore the Ronettes, the Marvelettes, the Supremes?
Boy, am I gettin' old.
Perez, don't you mean, "Looking fat ladies, looking FAT!!!"
that performance was amazing! kudos to alicia keys and her manager for having the idea to bring all these groups together! and bet is a channel for black entertainment, not black people. the whole show was great last night!
SWV! how great to see them again. why they all wearing black, they should add some color!!
Oh whatever Hispanics have their own tv networks to. It's only fair, it's not like any black people could audition for The Search For The Next Elle Woods; Legally Blonde The Musical. Have you seen any black people on The Hills? Please, get over it (: .
LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE WEARING A NEW KIND OF WET SUIT
BEST highlight of night!!!! TLC was amazing!!! They all were awesome!!!
Re: ash –
R u retarded? Um…FERGIE was on stage performing with Nelly! There were tonns of white people in the audience. WHite people have won awards on BET before, and there have been plenty of white performers on the awards show so shut the fuck up before you open your mouth and make yourself look like more of a fool than you already are..douchebag..
Why is everyone wearing black?
Swv are a bunch of Racist!! I used to love their music and be a supporter buying their music at the time when they were hot, and maybe I still listen to a tune or two once in a blue moon. Like who doesn't reminisce and jam to an old Swv track. But FYI that all girl group is racists against Latino people. Im 26 now but when I was like 9 years old I seen SWV behind the scenes at the Apollo Music Theater. I was taking a guided tour of the Apollo and they were rehearsing so we got to see them. As the person giving the tour had everyone sit in the famed Apollo audience I left my seat to go say hi and ask for and Autograph they totally snubbed me, and that to me was super rude. They didn't even look in my direction or even say sorry not right now. They totally acted is i wasn't even their. Then a little Black girl on Our same tour did the same after she saw me. I was the one who went up to them then she did after me. They totally acknowledged her said hi asked her name and everything and give her the autograph and then the little bitch and her mother rubbed in my face while i was in tears. I was in shock that my favorite girl group treated did that to me treated me harsh, and were racist. Im a Puerto Rican and proud of it so that hurt me as a little girl at the time. Than the fact that the black girl and her mother rubbed it in my face was even worse.

WERES TOTAL!!!!!!!!!
"how many licks does it take to get to the center of a weave-less, wig wearing bitches cootchie? ohhhh ohhhh!"—sisqo the dragon
Ms. Keyes killed it!!! That performance was the best of the night and had everybody dancing for black music month. That was girl power, TALENT.
ALICIA KEYS is a GENIUS!!!the most UNFORGETTABLE performance of the night!!!EVERYBODY was JAMMIN to her performance!!!I love, love, love SWV,TLC and EN VOGUE!!!
i love TLC ! -> best girl group ever
i love tlc more than life itself but t-boz sounds whoreanus last night.
That was my favorite too! I absolutely love them! I miss girl groups from the '90s.
This was the best! and such a surprise. I can't believe they got all the original members to participate (RIP Lefteye). …Alicia Keys did a great job holding it together….
The BET awards celebrate artists in hip hop. It just so happens that a majority of hip hop artists are….BLACK!!! The awards aren't biased or racist. It's an award show just like the CMAs and Academy Awards that celebrate artists of which a majority happen to be….WHITE!! So does that make the CMAs racist?!?!?!
FYI, BET entertainment was created, much like HBCUs, when african americans were denied an outlet to express themselves via television, radio, etc.. BET is now owned by Viacom, or has white owners. I'm sure the owners wouldn't allow blatant racist views against their own race.
1995 TLC Chasing waterfalls and today Lisa is sendiing her luv and strength to these gals from beyond - albeit that she is gone these gals are emotionally and spiritually supportive of each other and they all have beautiful souls - I'm looking forward to what is to come….you go gurls!!!
I was thinking the same thing. What do you mean you dont have an award show catered more towards whites or a channel?? lol what it CMT? oh yes, I see lots of diversity there. CMA? Nope, i dont see lil Wayne performing there. Why…because he is not a country singer!! The BET music awards is for that genre of music and thats why you dont see Faith Hill performing there. It's not rocket science! The only difference in BET and CMT is CMT doesnt have the word white in the title. Would that make you feel better if it did? Seriously.
PEOPLE BLACK BEAUTY NEVER FADES!!! THERES A BUNCH OF HATES ON THIS SITE…ALL THE PERFORMAERS ROCKED.. EVERYONE IN THE ABOVE PIC STILL LOOKS GOOOD. IT'S GOOD 2 SEE LADIES WHO DON'T LOOK LIKE STICKS. LEFT EYE WAS DEFIENTLY SHINING DOWN… ALL THESES GROUPS NEED 2 COME BACK!!
Someone forgot to tell T-Boz to wear all black.
I love TLC the most. They were the best girl group to watch perform. I think they should have enlisted Oh-so-chrispy from their reality show to be a new member of the group and start performing again. Lisa was my favorite, then T-boz. I like Chili too. So find Oh-so-chrispy and start up again. We miss you, TLC. Lisa wouldn't mind.
Fab!!!!Love these woman!!!They all need to make music again!
ok T & C and En Vogue seriously looked like they bought their clothes at a local swap meet ..
Wow! The years have not been good to any of these ladies.
WHO GIVES A FUCK? Why the hell yall gotta ruin shit with all the race stuff? It was hot bitches. Shut the fuck up.
Lawzy, Lawzy, and Lawzy again…!!!
Why cain't color'd gals buy clothes that fits these days. These perfectly beautiful negresses all in gettups make 'em all look like hoochie mama's..!!
Gots they's thighs & asses showin', pussies jumpin' out at'cha like a stampede of camel-toes. Bosum's all strainin' seams and trying to flop out.
This should have been renamed the H-OOCH-E Awards 'stead of the BET Awards.
A hint from Mammy : black leather, black stretchpants, black miniskirts—all worn five sizes too small—do not make a full figured woman look skinny.
OwKkaaayyyy…??? Uunnnnhhhhunnnnhhhh. Now.
That all said…….
Who are the three men in the bottom picture?
Re: Weezy[E]BaBii – Lookout 29, easy on the "ampersand" key. It only takes one to mean "and", honey chile.
You done gone "&&" made y'seff look r'dickluss.
Lawzy, I don't think I've ever seen so much fake hair in one place before.
HOW did they gain that weight?! They would look soooo sexy if it weren't for that extra 30 pounds they're styling.
OMG, I absolutely love all these beautiful women!!!!! Awesome
Wow they all look great still sometihng about black women they keep longevity well
RE: "Lawzy Lawzy Miss Scarlett" Hunnie, learn how to write a full sentence correctly before you want to say someone is RIDICULOUS..
Re: Kiki –
Lets not be mean…
Re: Jill – calm down
you must be a skinny bitch to be hating on theses fat, fabulous and talented women. fuck off bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Skeezy[E]Baby in Depends Adult Diapers – That's my schtick number 95, stupid ass teenage-brained skank.
Now go have your nanny change your depends. And wipe around your hoohah and your poop shute. Remember front-to-back. You're starting to stink.
Chilli looks great! I wish that Usher and her would have stayed together rather than that gold digger he married and trapped him with a baby.
Re: ash – WHITE FOLKS HAVE HAD EVERYTHING IN THE PAST SO NOW IT'S TIME FOR BLACK FOLKS TO STICK TOGETHER AND DO SOMETHING PROGRESSIVE. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT DOUBLE STANDARD THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM, DEAL WITH IT.
