It’s safe to say that Ciara, Tinashe and Jason Derulo’s tribute to Janet Jackson was the most highly anticipated moment of the 2015 BET Awards. The three entertainers put their dance skills to a test as they paid homage to the Jackson, who was honored with the Ultimate Icon Award.
Tinashe kicked off the set with a solo routine to “Pleasure Principle.” Jason Derulo followed up with an army of dancers for “All for You.” Ciara shut things down with “If” and “Rhythm Nation.”
