Even if Usher, Chris and the rest could not show up. They totally missed the boat with the people that were there.

Again, why was Beyonce singing in a nightie and then angel wings and wedding dress to Ave Maria. She could have transitioned into "I'll be there", "save the world, or something else.

Ciara is not that strong a singer to do an acoustic set, so why not have her dance to beat it or Scream or something else?

Alicia keys was there....play something MJ related

So many other opportunities. That were basically missed. I know they had three days, but if they have "true performers" and a real plan, they could have pulled it together.

Really, a lot of people that normally don't watch BET tuned in tonight and it was an embarrassment to be honest. The better parts of the show were really not MJ related until Janet came out at the end.

Did we really need to recreate scenes from Baby Boy tonight, of all nights? SRLY?

I don't think he announced who he's signed with yet.

aww I just saw Janet's appearance. So it was too painful for the family to be there but of course not for Joe.

Don't worry. Most people haven't seen that and they were just thinking to themselves, "Oh look at these crazy people. Fighting on tv."

Was this statement from Usher already posted?

"It is with regret that I am unable to participate in the BET Awards Tribute to Michael Jackson on June 28th. When the BET Awards producers and organizers reached out to me to participate in the tribute, I was extremely flattered and humbled by the opportunity to pay tribute to the world's greatest musical icon. Unfortunately, I am currently overseas and would not make it back in time to the Awards show. I look forward to seeing the show and I plan to work on a tribute to Michael Jackson when I return."

I wouldn't be surprised if Justin was still in England too.

I wonder when that statement was made. it would have been nice if it came out before the show tonight. I would have tuned in anyway, but I feel had a lot of other people known this, they wouldn't have watched.

The only performer I gave a pass to is Beyonce because her ass is on tour and she had a show yesterday and a show tomorrow. She came in at 3 in the morning and with MJ's death she probably thought let me just sing something easy and appropriate for him that I don't really have to change. But even that performance was lacking from what she gives on tour (she should have sung Halo made more sense, but the end of Ava Marie I believe is a prayer to those we have lost).

11:05p EST: Usher

Usher's reps just sent this statement regarding him not making it back in time for the BET Awards even though he was trying to:

Beyonce's overkill. No excuses for her. She could have just sat in the audience and looked pretty. She didn't have to perform.
