In the WTF moment of the night.  Tiffany Green, a fan from Flat Rock, Michigan, was chosen to read the winner's name from a Sprint Evo tablet. Green first called Brown's name, but then squinted at the teleprompter before confidently announcing that Rihanna had won.

"Well, that was awkward," singer Drake said as he accepted the award for Rihanna, who was not present.
Stephen Hill, BET's programming president, took blame backstage for what he called "a human error."
Brown's name was correctly on the tablet in Green's hand, but the show producers put the wrong name -- Rihanna's -- on the teleprompter, Hill said.
Photos of Green's stunned expression quickly became an Internet sensation. She tweeted that she was weeping backstage.
Rihanna was honored earlier with the best female R&B artist award.
When the dust settled, Brown had won for best male R&B Artist, video of the year, best collaboration, and the viewer's choice award


We can do better BET.  Kevin Hart was a great Host and a few performances had me on my feet.  But the pre-award show and that mix up.  Sat me right back down.

Stevie Wonder, who made his Apollo Theater debut at 12, recalled all his adventures growing up at the theater during his Hall of Fame celebration.
Wonder didn’t forget his political side during his acceptance speech, calling for better health care and criticizing those who fail to help others.

When asked about his comments, he later joked: “I just did it, I wasn’t even thinking about it. It was on my mind. I kind of did the Kanye (West) and expressed myself.”

The Apollo spring gala raised over $1.2 million. The funds will be used for its educational programs and to preserve the historic theater’s legacy, organizers said.
