The awards show kicked off live at 8 p.m. ET on BET from the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live in Los Angeles. It ended just shy of midnight on the east coast. The 2014 awards show will premiere elsewhere around the world on BET’s international network on Tuesday at 8 p.m. GMT.

A dark cloud hung over this year’s telecast before it even began. One person was killed and at least five others injured when violence unfolded at two separate parties that were being touted as BET Awards-related this weekend in Los Angeles. The network told TheWrap that the events were unauthorized and unaffiliated with the awards show.
