COVID-19 has slowed a lot of things down and shifted the focus of many companies to help aid in relief efforts as well as vaccinations. After a year of hardships, fans can find something to smile about with the 2021 Bet Awards premiering June 27th from Los Angeles, California.

Vaccinated fans will be able to register for a chance to be a part of the live audience!
“Since the beginning of the pandemic, BET has been at the forefront of recovery efforts for our community, turning entertainment touchpoints into opportunities to empower our audiences and help combat the disproportionate impacts of COVID-19,” said BET President Scott Mills in a statement on their website.

Last year powerful performances by Jenifer Hudson, DaBaby and Roddy Ricch, YG and others focused on Police Brutality and the Black Lives Matter Movement. With progress being made we can expect to see more celebrities use their platforms to help spread awareness on social issues.

While the nominees are set to be released this month, we can expect to see some of our favorite artists.

Let us know who we think is due for a BET award on June 27th.
