Could it be movie producer Tyler Perry? What about Jaime Foxx? No one knows just yet, but there’s also been speculation that the WGA writers strike has left the BET Awards show producers in a bind and unable to find a host until the last minute.
Perhaps the return of a celebrity who has posted in the past, like Mo’Nique? There have also been a few mentions of Lauryn Hill possibly being the MC of the evening. Fans on Twitter have been speculating who it could be. Henson has hosted the awards show over the last two years, but it looks like the company wanted to make a big splash, and is withholding the name of this year’s host as a surprise to viewers. We’ll update this story as soon as the host name leaks, or it is announced on the broadcast. Viewers are frantically trying to figure out the host of the BET Awards, but the network has not yet announced who will be hosting.
