The stars came in full force on Sunday July 1, 2012 at the Shine Auditorium in Los Angeles for the BET awards. Jay-Z, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj and Beyonce scored big in both fashion and music categories. Hosted by Samuel L Jackson this year’s BET awards was definitely fun to watch from the crazy rendition of “niggas in paris” by Jackson and Spike Lee to the beautiful and touching Whitney Houston tribute performed by Monica, Brandy and Chaka Khan. Everyone looked amazing, well mostly everyone, but here are the top 5 best dressed from the 2012 BET awards.
