Shortly afterwards, Nicki Minaj upped the ante of excitement by winning the best female hip hop artiste again. She,collected the award with her mom, Carol, by her side. For the first time ever, Nicki confirmed her relationship status with Meek Mill, another rap artiste, with a shout out to her "baby,
Meek Mill" to his obvious delight as he beamed widely in delight from his seat in the audience. The crowd approved as they chanted " We love Nicki" and "Mama Carol" as they returned the their seats.
Not long afterwards, Sam Smith won for best new artiste. The person who collected the award on his behalf humorously said Sam Smith couldn't come personally because he thought he won't win because "he's white."
P. Diddy brought nearly everyone that their feet with a medley of hits he's associated with primarily during his Bad Boy Entertainment record label days with Mase.
That's not to say a lot of buzz isn't circulating among viewers over a thrilling performance by Janet Jackson! It would be her first public performance in nearly 10 years.
