Leading up to the BET Awards, rumors circulated stating that Mathew Knowles and his camp were threatening BET with an ultimatum: if Letoya Luckett performed on the BET stage, his daughter Beyonce would not. Well last Sunday at the awards, Letoya performed but only at the pre-show. Now, according to the New York Daily News, a spokesperson for Beyonce is denying the rumors.

Letoya herself has also spoken up on the topic, stating that there is no drama between the two and they both have apparently let bygones be bygones.

Here Jamie Foxx can be seen paying tribute to Michael Jackson (comedically, of course) as the host of the 2009 BET Awards, which aired live from Los Angeles Sunday night (Jun 28) on BET. Jamie Foxx is probably one of the few people who can make light of a sad situation and have everyone laughing and crying at the same time.
