Worst dressed stars at BET Awards revealed
The singer - rocking Napoleon Dynamite curls - looked ready to take someone's order in his preppy pastel yellow shirt, matching necktie, and black trousers.
The father of two also wore bizarre razor blade-style earrings.
Meanwhile Inayah opted for a wrinkled purple set that failed to showcase her incredible figure.
Rapper Kash Doll and former Detroit Lion Za'Darius Smith's brown leather ensembles were clearly inspired by Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake 's denim explosion on the AMAs red carpet in 2001.
Machine Gun Kelly's mismatched look was paired with messy hair and strange looking razor blade inspired earrings.
Inayah's look included two different shades of purple plus metallic hued platform heels - making the look too distracting.
Meanwhile lovebirds Kash and Za'Darius' matching look left much to be desired when it comes to creativity.
Other contenders include Tisha Campbell coordinated her burgundy mane with an oxblood-leather Anthony Lattimore gown covered in belts selected by stylist J. Bolin.
The 56-year-old Little Shop of Horrors alum was attempting to recreate the late Gianni Versace's iconic black-leather belt dress he made for his sister Donatella back in 1993.
Gospel singer Lucinda Moore turned heads in a black-hooded blazer draped with white fringe, embroidered skinny pants, and platform peep-toe heels which she styled herself.
NFL quarterback-turned-podcaster Cam Newton took a big swing with his snug brocade vest and trousers, but was ultimately swallowed by the busy print.
Rapper Dej Loaf pulled a Jayden Smith move by rocking an eccentric spiked face mask with her white pantsuit and loafers.
Free Marie Wright - who was the first host of BET's 106 & Park - looked caged in a grey-and-green corseted creation, belted with a shabby corset, which was selected by stylist J. Bolin.
Rapper Da Brat looked far too casual in a custom Anthony Lattimore duster over bleach-stained sweats.
Divorced Sistas actress Khadeen Ellis' black mini-dress and RHOA star Drew Sidora's silver Le Thanh Hoa mini-dress both overwhelmed their petite frames with architectural flare
Divorced Sistas actress Khadeen Ellis' black mini-dress and RHOA star Drew Sidora's silver Le Thanh Hoa mini-dress both overwhelmed their petite frames with architectural flare.
BMF actress Michole Briana White attempted pattern-clashing in a snug pantsuit selected by stylisy Tiffany Scott-Clemente.
Non-binary queer singer Kehlani's tattooed body was washed out by the archival Dior by Galliano brocade dress selected by stylist Quran Smith.
Three gents at the BET Awards wearing awkward and ill-fitting suits included Lady in the Lake actor Tyrik Johnson, rapper Foggieraw, and comedian Druski.
Taraji P. Henson donned an outlandish, 50ft tall caped gown onstage.
The 54-year-old Oscar nominee clutched a burning bouquet of roses as she delivered a pretentious poem about divorce during Teyana Taylor 's performance at the awards ceremony honoring black excellence.
'It started as a spark and we fed it with promises. Eyes locked, "I do." Until one day, anger and rage, love shouldn't burn everything it touches,' Taraji - who relies on styling duo Wayman + Micah - stated.
'So, I walked away from the wreckage. Not because I stopped loving you, no, but because I finally understood even love is something you must escape.'
Teyana - who relies on stylist Edith Donaldson-Wheeler - transformed into a bulky-looking robot in what appeared to be a direct homage to Katy Perry 's Lifetimes Tour 'K3P143' costume crafted by designer Zaldy.

Shia LaBeouf FINALLY settles explosive sexual battery lawsuit with ex FKA Twigs
FKA Twigs has officially ended her legal battle with ex-boyfriend Shia LaBeouf, nearly four years after filing a high-profile lawsuit accusing the actor of abuse. According to court documents, obtained by TMZ, on Monday, the 37-year-old British musician (born Tahliah Debrett Barnett) has requested to dismiss all claims against LaBeouf, 39, with prejudice, meaning she cannot bring the case back to court in the future. The lawsuit, filed in 2020, sought $10 million in damages and alleged sexual battery, assault, and emotional distress during the couple's relationship. The two began dating after meeting on the set of LaBeouf's 2019 semi-autobiographical film Honey Boy, in which Twigs was cast. In a statement provided to attorneys for both parties confirmed the matter had been resolved privately. 'Committed to forging a constructive path forward, we have agreed to settle our case out of court. While the details of the settlement will remain private, we wish each other personal happiness, professional success and peace in the future,' the pair's respective attorneys said. LaBeouf was represented by Shawn Holley while Twigs hired Los Angeles-based lawyer, Bryan Freedman, who is currently defending actor Justin Baldoni in his legal battle against Blake Lively. Twigs' original complaint included several disturbing allegations, including claims that LaBeouf knowingly gave her a sexually transmitted disease and once threatened to crash a car with her inside. She also alleged he physically assaulted her at a gas station following that incident. LaBeouf has denied many of the allegations but issued a public statement at the time of the filing, acknowledging his history of harmful behavior. 'I have no excuses for my alcoholism or aggression, only rationalizations,' he told The New York Times. 'I have been abusive to myself and everyone around me for years. I'm ashamed of that history and am sorry to those I hurt.' In March 2024, Twigs detailed the aftermath of her relationship with LaBeouf in a vulnerable Vogue interview. 'I think naively I thought it would be like any other break-up, that I'd be sad for six months to a year, and then one day I'd wake up and everything would be fine,' she told the outlet. The performer continued: 'But the fact is being abused changes the whole of your nervous system. Because my window of tolerance is now much smaller than it used to be, my body manifests stress in quite extreme ways – it really shows me when it's upset.' Twigs filed her lawsuit against the star with a slew of explosive allegations, which the actor finally addressed in 2022, although the singer slammed his 'gaslighting'. In response to her explosive allegations, LaBeouf branded his ex a 'saint' and recalled how she 'saved' his life and inspired him to wake up and take responsibility for his actions. Meanwhile, Twigs called their relationship 'the worst thing I've ever been through in my life.' During his appearance on Jon Bernthal's podcast, Real Ones in 2022, he said: 'I hurt that woman. And in the process of doing that, I hurt many other people, and many other people before that woman. 'I was a pleasure-seeking, selfish, self-centered, dishonest, inconsiderate, fearful human being ... When I think about what my life has become, and what it is now, like what my purpose is now ... I need to be useful.' Among her allegations, Twigs accused Shia of violently attacking and strangling her, knowingly infecting her with an STD, and physical and verbal violence. But LaBeouf, who has been diagnosed with PTSD and alcoholism, insisted in 2022 that he is in a better place now. He explained; 'I'm in the tribe of the f***-ups. I'm a very public sinner, a very fallible person in the public sphere. What I think now my purpose is, is to not do… 'The other examples that we've had of how to navigate something like this — which is to go after the woman, or try to win a court case, or get back into a f****** movie or like get back on at all... 'My purpose, and I mean this with every fibre of my being, is to be instructive with my life, so that I can be an advertisement, like a billboard, for a principled way of living.' In her Vogue spread, FKA elaborated on the depths of her pain, writing: 'I've had to be very compassionate with myself and really listen to myself to get better... 'Now I want to challenge myself to know more about the simple, most pure and important things: love, nature, food, a nontoxic lifestyle, my body. The path I'm on is not the pastel pink yoga leggings aesthetic.' Since then, she has found love with Jordan Hemingway, with whom she went public with in March 2023. While speaking about her new romance, she gushed: 'I've kissed a few frogs to get there but I feel that Jordan listens to me and opens me up in a way that no one really has ever been able to.' 'When I'm with somebody who's not in the public eye in the way I am, I'm conscious of everything I can do to make that situation as comfortable as possible because I've been on the other side of it,' she explained. 'And it's really not nice. Right now I feel so ready to stand up for things that I believe in, to protect people who I love.' Meanwhile, LaBeouf is married to actress Mia Goth, whom he shares a daughter named Isabel. Over the years, the pair's relationship has weathered a few storms, including a separation and a divorce filing in 2018.

Showing now | Culture 00:36 Hulk Hogan was in good spirits in his final TV appearance in May as he appeared on Fox & Friends to promote his latest business venture. Hogan, who WWE confirmed today has died aged 71, was a guest on the show alongside long-time friend and business partner Eric Bischoff to discuss the launch of a new freestyle wrestling organisation, 'Real American Freestyle'. The wrestling legend, styled in his iconic late '90s-era bleach blonde handlebar moustache and black dyed beard 'Hollywood Hogan' look, had fun with the hosts by delivering one of his signature unscripted promos to camera. Medics were called to Hogan's home in Clearwater, Florida this morning according to TMZ, after he reportedly suffered a cardiac arrest.

American wrestling star Hulk Hogan dies aged 71
American wrestling star Hulk Hogan has died at the age of 71. Hogan – whose real name was Terry Bollea – was a leading figure in wrestling during the 1980s and won six WWE Championships during his career. He faced names including Andre the Giant and Randy Savage and enjoyed a career in the media, featuring in films and television shows. His death was confirmed by the WWE, who posted a statement on X saying: 'WWE is saddened to learn WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan has passed away. 'One of pop culture's most recognizable figures, Hogan helped WWE achieve global recognition in the 1980s. 'WWE extends its condolences to Hogan's family, friends, and fans.' Hogan headlined the first Wrestlemania in 1985 and faced The Rock, aka Dwayne Johnson, during the event in 2002. His last WWE match was against Randy Orton at SummerSlam in 2006. Hogan's friend and fellow former professional wrestler, Ric Flair, wrote on X: 'I am absolutely shocked to hear about the passing of my close friend @HulkHogan! Hulk has been by my side since we started in the wrestling business. 'An incredible athlete, talent, friend, and father!'
