The most polarizing couple in entertainment were on hand at the 2015 BET Honors. And as expected, their mere presence created an excitement that kept attendees entertained the entire evening.
On the morning of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s arrival to Washington, D.C., photos began to appear online of the two looking a bit exhausted from a long flight. It was apparent that Kanye West would appear in D.C. to accept the Visionary Award at the BET Honors, but it wasn’t confirmed that Kim would also be in attendance.
Whenever Kanye and Kim are together, the paparazzi scramble to take pics of the couple as if they could soon dissolve into vapor at any moment. Their trip to the nation’s capital was without difference.
After TMZ posted photos of the two online, Kanye and Kim caused a bit of pandemonium when they arrived on the red carpet. The photographers yelled and shoved to get shots of the couple before they made their way to front row seats at the Warner Theater.
During the show, Kanye participated in a few spontaneous performances; he was presented his award by a past mentor who gave a fun, but awkward speech. Kanye’s controversial acceptance speech will likely be one of the most discussed TV moments of 2015.
Along with Kanye, other honorees included Dr. Johnnetta Betsch, Phylicia Rashad, Usher and John W. Thompson. Wayne Brady hosted the show.
Unfortunately, you will have to wait for nearly a month to see the excitement for yourself. The BET Honors airs on BET on Feb. 23.
