T-Pain leads BET Award nominees
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - T-Pain led the nominees for the eighth annual BET Awards, an event celebrating the leading lights in African-American music, film and sport, organizers said on Thursday.
His five nods were all in his capacity as a featured artist on recordings by R&B singer Chris Brown, rookie rapper Flo Rida or hip-hop star Kanye West.
West and R&B singer Keyshia Cole scored three nominations each. Winners will be announced during a ceremony scheduled for June 24 at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. It will be televised live by cable channel BET.
