Rowland is a Kelly good BET

Motivation ... Trey Songz and Kelly Rowland

 

 

 

 

WHILE Beyonce was going down a storm in Somerset, former bandmate Kelly Rowland was raising the temperature at the BET awards.

The Destiny's Child singer showed off her superslim figure in a black bra and trousers as she sang Motivation at the Los Angeles ceremony.
And fellow performer Trey Songz was clearly impressed as he ogled her fine form.
Chris Brown won four awards on the night including the Viewer's Choice, although a technical hitch saw ex-girlfriend Rihanna announced as the winner.
A fan was brought on stage to announce the recipient but due to a glitch in the digital tablets that were being used instead of envelopes, she read out the wrong name.
Rapper Drake had already come up on stage to collect the gong on behalf of the Bajan singer when the mistake was announced.
R&B star Chris, who was convicted of assaulting Rihanna in 2009, took to the stage in a ridiculous pair of winged trousers.
He performed a medley of his hits and was joined on stage by Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes for their track Look At Me Now, which won Best Collaboration.

Gong wrong ... Chris Brown

He was named Best R&B Artist and thanked his fans in a brief speech. He said: "I appreciate all the support. I know it's been a long road, so I appreciate every blessing in front of me."
Brown returned to the stage to join Big Sean on his song, My Last.
And he ended the show on a bicycle as host Kevin Hart, on a Segway, presented him with the Fandemonium award and the Viewers' Choice prize.

Celeb guests ... Justin Bieber and Nicki Minaj

Ne-Yo, Nicki Minaj and Eve were also at the event. Will and Jada Smith brought children Willow and Jaden to the bash and their pal Justin Bieber was on hand to share a fizzy drink with the pair.
Lil Wayne presented the Best Female Hip-Hop Award to Nicki.
And the female star paid tribute to the rapper and producer who discovered her who was in prison when she won last year's prize.

Family outing ... Willow, Jaden, Jada and Will Smith

She said: "I can't believe for the first time I get to share a moment like this with the person who saw me rapping on a staircase. Lil Wayne, I love you." Mary J. Blige opened the show with All Night long and Real Love and was joined on stage by Anita Baker for the classic Caught Up In The Rapture.
And another diva wrapped up the show, as a live feed from Beyonce's Glastonbury set was piped in.
