The 2023 BET Awards which honours the “best, brightest and most beautiful aspects of the Black experience” was held in Los Angeles on Sunday June 25th, 2023.

With a red carpet that was fire, individuality and innovation were everywhere. Bare midriffs reigned, but so did elegance and edge. We’ve collected some of the most noteworthy looks of the night.

Busta Rhymes was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award – we loved both his looks – scroll through to find them. What do you think?

You know any night that has live performances by Ice Spice, Lil Uzi Vert, GloRilla, to mention just a few of the mega-names, would have head-turning style.

Mzansi stars set a huge BET Awards showdown:

Born in Soshanguve north of Pretoria, Pabi Cooper (born Paballo Basetsana Mothapo) — was nominated for the Best International Act Viewer’s Choice Award — and is one of the hot favourites to win in her category.

Soweto-born rapper and producer K.O (born Ntokozo Mdluli) was nominated in the category of Best New International Act. Originally from the group Teargas, K.O went solo in 2014 and his most recent afrobeats track, SETE, topped the South African music charts for 20 consecutive weeks with a remix that went multi-platinum.
