The BET Honors are held each year to pay tribute to iconic African-Americans.

The annual ceremony took place last night, January 14 at the Warner Theatre in Washington, D.C.

Hosted by the fabulous Gabrielle Union for the fifth consecutive year, First Lady Michelle Obama took the stage looking classic in red, while the honorees were presented to the audience.
