C. Brown Wins Big at BET Awards; Pa...

*Even though the 2011 BET Awards gave props to Patti LaBelle and Steve Harvey, as well as emotional tributes to several stars who passed away, Sunday night’s show belonged to Chris Brown.

The dancer/singer dominated the show with 4 awards and performed twice during the telecast from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.

It was on the same stage a year ago that he broke down in tears during the BET Awards while doing a tribute to Michael Jackson.

Interestingly a bit of irony ensued and fans were reminded of Brown’s domestic violence conviction when Rihanna was mistakenly announced as the winner of the Coca-Cola Viewers Choice Award near the end of the telecast.

Tiffany Green, a fan from Flat Rock, Michigan, was chosen by BET to read the winner’s name from a Sprint Evo tablet. Green first called Brown’s name, but then squinted at the teleprompter before announcing that Rihanna had won.

“Well, that was awkward,” rapper Drake said as he accepted the award for Rihanna, who was not present. Watch:

BET later announced that Brown was indeed the “viewers choice” and not Rihanna.

Stephen Hill, BET’s programming president, took blame backstage for what he called “a human error.” Read more about the incident in a separate report.

Meanwhile, Mary J. Blige set the tone for the performance heavy evening when she opened the show with a pair of hits: “All Night Long” and “Real Love.” Surprise guest Anita Baker joined her on stage, and it was a diva duet as the two sang Baker’s classic, “Caught Up in the Rapture.”

Steve Harvey’s acceptance of the Humanitarian Award was punctuated by a gospel celebration, as Donnie McClurkin, Deitrick Haddon and gospel artist winners Mary Mary gathered to perform “Thank You.”

Following a musical tribute that included Cee Lo Green wearing a Patti LaBelle-inspired headdress and blouse, LaBelle punctuated her own Lifetime Achievement Award win by performing a couple of classics, including her breakthrough hit, “Lady Marmalade.”

Alicia Keys unveiled a brand new song and performed two hits: “Fallin’” and “A Woman’s Worth,” for which she was joined by Bruno Mars.

Queen Latifah and Snoop Dogg delivered heartfelt performances as part of a memorial segment that recognized Nate Dogg, Teena Marie, Clarence Clemons and Gil Scott Heron, among others.

ASUS K72DR-A1 17.3-Inch Versatile Entertainment Laptop - Dark Brown

This laptop is a great machine. It is F-A-S-T! The triple core processor is a great compromise of speed and price. The screen is HUGE and it looks great. The keyboard has a great feel and it is easy to type on it. Maybe the best part about this laptop is its tech support. They are 24/7 and very helpful. It even comes with a spill/drop/fire accidental damage warranty. It is large and is more of a desktop replacement than a laptop. You may have difficulty finding a bag to fit it, but it is possible.
