Beyonce and SZA were the big winners at the BET Awards on Sunday night (26.06.23).

The 41-year-old RnB superstar and 'Kiss Me More' hitmaker SZA, 33, both won three gongs each at the Black Entertainment Television Award, with both their respective albums 'Renaissance' and 'SOS' being handed Album of the Year.

SZA also beat out competition from Beyonce as well as Lizzo, H.E.R and Coco Jones to be named Best Female RnB/Pop Artist whilst the 'Crazy in Love' singer won both the BET Her Award and the Viewer’s Choice Award for her 2022 smash 'Break My Soul'. SZA also scooped Video of the Year for 'Kill Bill', having gone up against the likes of Chris Brown's 'We (Warm Embrace)' and Lizzo's 'About Damn Time'.

However, both Beyonce and SZA - whose real name is Solana Imani Rowe - are currently headlining their own tours so neither were at the event at Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles to collect their accolades.

Having led the way with seven nominations, rapper Drake managed two wins as his band DRAKE and 21 SAVAGE were awarded Best Group and also picked up Best Collaboration for 'Wait For U' with Future and Tems, but lost out on Best Male Hip-Hop Artist to Kendrick Lamar and Best Male RnB/Pop Artist to a tie between Chris Brown and Usher.

Up for Best Female Hip-Hop Artist was 'WAP' hitmaker Cardi B, Glorilla, and Meghan Thee Stallion but the honour eventually went to Latto whilst 'Holla at the DJ' singer Coco Jones beat out the likes of Ice Spice and Lola Brooke to become Best New Artist.

When it comes to Hollywood, Marvel hit film 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' was named Best Movie whilst leading star Angela Bassett was given the award of Best Actress, just months after she lost out at the Academy Awards to 'Everything Everywhere All At Once' star Jamie Lee Curtis.
