●Jay-Z and Kanye West were the big winners at Sunday’s BET Awards, taking the honors for best group and — in a controversial category in which they had two nominations, as did Beyonce — best music video for “Otis.” Responding in the only appropriate manner, Jay-Z interrupted West’s speech with an “Excuse me, Kanye, I’m going to let you continue . . .” (P.S. Kim Kardashian was indeed there to support West, sitting beside him, Jay-Z and Beyonce and wearing an all-white ensemble that matched her boyfriend’s.) Beyonce won some awards, too, as did Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj.
