Despite all the family drama that has been happening between popstar Beyonce and her husband and rapper Jay Z in the past week, the couple has plenty to smile about.
The couple leads all BET Award nominations with a total of four each.
Queen B is nominated for Best Female R&B/Pop Artist, Best Collaboration for her hit single “Drunk In Love,” and twice for Video of the Year for “Partition” and “Drunk In Love.”
In the Video of the Year category, both artists’ nominations overlap porque by having “Drunk In Love” be nominated, it means Jay Z is also nominated.
Besides that nomination, Jay Z is also up for Best Male Hip Hop Artist and twice for Best Collaboration for “Holy Grail,” in which he sings with Justin Timberlake and again for “Drunk In Love” alongside Beyonce.
Following couple are Drake, Pharell Williams, Chris Brown and August Alsina, who each have tres nominaciones.
“This year’s nominees represent the best of the culture,” dijo Stephen Hill, President of Music Programming and Specials at BET in a press release. “It’s great to see our talented new artist’s right alongside our more beloved ones with long careers. We appreciate our BET Awards nomination committee, over 300 strong, for their efforts and congratulate all the nominees.”
The BET Awards se darán acabo Sunday, June 29 from the Nokia Theatre in Downtown Los Angeles starting at 8 p.m. EST.
Earlier this week, Beyonce and Jay Z made headlines when a video showing Beyonce’s sister Solange attack Jay Z inside an elevator after the Met Gala, leaked. Since then, fans have taken on social media to express their comments and concerns.
