Oh, how many jokes did I have set up for this, but I really think the title of the article says it all.

Justin Bieberama Extends to BET Award Nominations

Who knew Bieber would be the one to break the BET mould?

"The 16-year-old "Baby" singer has scored a nomination for Best New Artist for the 2010 BET Awards, which recognizes achievements in music, film and sports.

But in all seriousness, it is cool to see racial stigmas fade, I just wish Bieber didn't have to be the face for it.

Umm...it's quite obvious Bieber's style is R&B pop. I didn't know he was the one to break the mold.

Aside from that fat chick and Bullethead from The Steve Harvey Show, I can't remember the last time I saw a white boy on that channel. Late night televangelists don't count either.

Common man, we all know you aren't a racist and that you think outside of the box and you go against the grain and all that other stuff that makes you different and special from everyone else in your home town or wherever you're holding a grudge that won't allow you to see the humor in nominating a pre-teen caucasian at a ceremony for Black Entertainment. You don't have to make a stand for it in a Justin Bieber thread, as noble as your cause may be.

Has anyone seen them do that BET bit "What's Up With That?" on SNL? God! It's the stupidest thing ever, yet I got tears in my eyes from laughing so hard every time they do one!

Thank you! Fuck, someone else who sees the irony. I don't know how many hip hop greats have been honored at those awards, and now Bieber. I don't know maybe I'm expecting too much from them, maybe they are just the MTV of the black community.

maybe they realized the entire premise of BET was racist, and they're trying to look less like black panther television by honoring the whitest kid they could think of. not that it really changes anything, since, in my opinion, they've been perpetuation negative black stereotypes for a while.
