The BET Awards 2020 went down on June 28, 2020, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. The event will forever be etched in history for being the first-ever award show to be held in a virtual fashion, a standard that MTV VMA’s has chosen to adopt following this success. An audience-less spectacle would not hinder the much-anticipated action-packed show as host Amanda Seales took the reigns and carried the event with the crowd tuned in from the comfort of their sofas.
The guild showcase, which honours the achievements of Black entertainers and athletes, had a special virtual show and for this year’s edition, a Black Lives Matter theme set the tone.
