Actress Teyana Taylor was seen getting emotional at this year's BET Awards.
The star was awarded the highest honor of the 2026 'BET Icon Award'. During her acceptance speech, Taylor reminded the audience that hard work always pays off as she had worked for two decades to receive such an accolade.
The grand event this year was held at the Peacock Theater in LA. This is where the 35-year-old multi-hyphenate artist was given the grand honor. She was even more grateful to receive the award from Janet Jackson, which made her appreciate it even more.
The honor moved the star to tears, who tried not to let her emotions get the best of her. While giving her acceptance speech, the celeb mentioned how she boldly rejected any kind of pressure to feel uncomfortable with the title that said she worked her ass off for 20 years. Moreover, she also expressed great gratitude instead of arrogance on the mega occasion.
