The BET Awards is an American award show that was established in 2001 by the Black Entertainment Television network to celebrate African Americans in music, acting, sports, and other fields of entertainment over the past year. The awards are presented annually and are broadcast live on BET.
The annual presentation ceremony features performances by artists, and some of the awards of more popular interest are presented in a televised ceremony.
The Award Trophy, inspired by three words – aspire, ascend, achieve, was designed by artist/sculptor Carlos “Mare139” Rodriguez. Outkast won the first award trophy during the first ceremony in 2001. In 2007, Society Awards, the New York firm that manufactures the award, enhanced the quality of the trophy design using plated steel and black crystal.
