    The show on Sunday will be hosted by Jamie Foxx and will now feature Jackson tribute performances by Beyonce, Timberlake, Jay-Z and others. Should be pretty damn good.

    Anyone watching this? I'm on a delay since I'm PDT - the Entertainment Weekly live blog makes it sound pretty incredible.

    I'm TiVo-ing it and will most likely watch it tomorrow. Can't miss True Blood....

    If those people constitute a quality tribute, I'd hate to see what a roast would be like.

    Good Lord, that would have been hysterical.

    Beyonce, though beautiful beyond belief, blew blue balls. [/alliteration] Ballads? Really?

    Was kinda shocked at Jamie Foxx's crudeness. He discussed his "camel toe" and had lots of bleeped out dialogue.

    New Edition kicked butt. Jay-Z was entertaining.

    Love T-Pain: "I'd like to thank all the haters, you keep givin' me a reason." And his "Big Ass Chain" was pretty damn funny.

    Nice of Joe Jackson to show up on the red carpet to plug his upcoming 'blue ray project'...and to have his publicist stand next to him read 'his statement' about his son's passing.

    The show was terrible. But Joe and Rev. Sharpton seemed to have had a real good time.

    I'm flipping between TV Land's rerun of The Jacksons: An American Dream and the BET show, didn't realize the guy who played Michael in his late teens and 20s died a few years after the show aired. Sad.
