Queen Latifah, Sean "Diddy" Combs, and Whitney Houston receive recognition at the 3rd Annual BET Honors ceremony. In the above pic, Ne-Yo presents Houston with a 2-million sold worldwide plaque for her latest album I Look to You. Many believe Houston was snubbed by the Grammy committee this year, receiving no recognition at all for the album.
Show highlights:• Jennifer Hudson sang the praises of her idol Whitney Houston with her rendition of “I Will Always Love You” as Houston looked on.
• Jazmine Sullivan performed soul-stirring interpretations of “Unforgettable” and “Rock Steady” for Queen Latifah.
• Stevie Wonder and Trey Songz raised eyebrows by dueting on Trey’s raunchy single “I Invented Sex,” and hit a more somber note with their tribute to the late Teddy Pendergrass on “Wake Up Everybody” with special guest India.Arie.
• Mary J. Blige showed appreciation to the man who helped launch her career, Diddy, by singing a medley of her hits including “Love No Limit,” “I Love You,” and “Be Happy.”
• Maxwell closed the show with “Fistful of Tears” and “Bad Habits” from his Grammy-nominated album BLACKsummers’night.
