The Host of 2014 BET Awards, Chris Rock |
If anyone knows how to get a crowd going, it’s Nicki Minaj! The
rapper took the stage on June 29 at the 2014 BET Awards and completely
wowed with a sexy performance of ‘Pills N Potions!’
Fans at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, Cali. went crazy for
Nicki Minaj
— and we don’t blame them! Performing her new hit, “Pills N Potions,”
Nicki looked sexier than ever, making her grand entrance on a
motorcycle, and she sounded amazing!
Nick Minaj came out on stage on a motorcycle looking hot, hot, hot! After being
topless in the music video, it’s no surprise that Nicki looked super sexy when she performed “Pills N Potions” live at the BET Awards.

the Award show was hosted by Chris Rock whose monologue was a killer and he did a great job cracking up the audience. Beyonce picked up three awards but it was unfortunate that she and her hubby couldn't make an appearance at the show but made it up to the crowd by releasing a pre tapped performance of she and her husband performing their hit song "Partition". Chris Brown who was just released from jail performed his hit song "Loyal" and he had the whole crowd dancing along with him. Pharrell Williams opened the show with an energetic rendition of “
Come Get It Bae” surrounded by a bevy of cheerleaders, and was joined by surprise performer and fellow Virginia native, the amazing
Missy Elliott, who brought the crowd to their feet to “
Pass That Dutch.”

Jennifer Hudson showed off her incredibly powerful pipes during
a performance of “Walk It Out” and debut of her new single “It’s Your
World” as a disco roller derby swirled around her. One of today’s
hottest rising stars,
Jhené Aiko joined John Legend on stage for one of the most impressive performances of the evening.Celebrating the 20th anniversary of his first album,
Usher performed an action-packed medley of his biggest hits, including “Yeah!”, “Confessions”, “Caught Up” and “Love In This Club”.

The show saw the appearance of a lot of known faces. Ghana's own Nadia Buari also made an appearance in a studying gown style with African prints. Too bad Sarkodie lost out to Davido but we still do love him and he is a great artist.
