The 2019 BET Awards are quickly coming up, with star-studded performances by Lizzo, Cardi B and more. As for the awards, Cardi B is taking center-stage with an impressive seven nominations, followed by Drake, who has five nods.
In the movie and television categories, some familiar faces are making an appearance, including 2009 nominee Taraji P. Henson.
