See the Best Looks from the 2018 BET Awards Red Carpet
Why wear one color when you can just wear them all? Thatās what Janelle MonĆ”eāwho usually sticks to a strict black-and-white color paletteādid on Sunday at the 2018 BET Awards, where she hit the red carpet in a rainbow-covered Nicolas Jebran gown with an embellished bodice, matching rainbow Judith Leiber clutch, and Tiffany & Co. Paper Flowers jewels. Though the show was at L.A.ās Microsoft Theater, she could have easily been master of ceremonies at New Yorkās Pride parade with this look.
Also on the carpet? Nicki Minaj, Ashanti, Tyra Banks, Amber Rose, and Blac Chyna, all of whom hit the carpet in wildly sparkly dresses withĀ cutouts for days. BeyoncĆ© notably was not there, but her queenly presence was felt nonetheless. She received the award for Best Female R&B/Pop Artist and this year became the star with the most BET Awards nominations and wins. Meanwhile, host Jamie Foxx hit the carpet with his daughter Corinne. (No, Foxxās rumored girlfriend Katie Holmes was nowhere to be found.)
