2021 BET Awards: The Complete Winners List

Megan Thee Stallion, DaBaby, Cardi B and Drake led the pack with the most nominations going into Sunday's show.

The 2021 BET Awards are here to honor Black excellence across music, television, film and sports! Some of the biggest celebs turned out to celebrate the big occasion.

This year's awards show was held in person once again -- after having to hold a virtual ceremony last year in light of the pandemic -- and featured a live audience inside the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, bringing a fun, electric energy to the festivities.

Going into Sunday's show, Megan Thee Stallion and DaBaby led the pack with seven nominations each, with Cardi B and Drake following with five nods apiece.
