Roomies, it seem the 2024 BET Awards will be filled with surprises — particularly from the ceremony’s host, Taraji P. Henson.
As The Shade Room earlier reported, Taraji P. Henson will host the BET Awards for the 3rd consecutive year, airing live on Sunday, June 28 at 8 p.m. EST.
Prior to her stage appearance, Taraji P. Henson shared with media the surprises she has in store for the big night. Henson stated to the media that she plans to disclose a hidden talent only known to a few.
“I’m showing yet another talent that a lot of you don’t know that I can do. Some of you know, but not all of you. I just haven’t had the stage. I have, actually, once. But everybody didn’t see it. This is culture’s huge night. The world will know.”
Taraji further disclosed that despite hosting the BET Awards twice, she still gets a few jitters.
“I love nerves. I still get nervous. I get nervous on the 1st day of shooting. It’s a live show. Anything can go right or wrong, you know, but that’s what’s so exciting.
That’s what I love about live theater. It keeps you on your toes.
Taraji also showed her enthusiasm about returning this year, promising viewers and the audience an amazing show.
So, I’m truly excited this year. It’s gonna be an amazing show. It’s culture’s biggest night. The performances are gonna blow us all away.
We got Will Smith, guys. I am so eager to see what he has up his sleeve.”
