Keke Palmer Steals the Show at BET Awards While Introducing Cardi B

The podcast host then looked right into the camera and introduced Cardi, seemingly reading Druski's teleprompter.

"This next performance is by a Grammy Award-winning artist who came through drippin'," Keke said while the audience continued to applaud. "It has been up til it's stuck. Give it up for the one and only, Cardi B."

And while Keke created a buzzworthy moment, Cardi brought the house down with an epic performance.

After all, the rapper—who rocked a multi-colored bodysuit and bright red wig—performed a medley of songs from her BET Award-nominated album Am I the Drama?, including "Hello," "Check Please," "Errtime" and "Pretty & Petty."

Heading into the June 28 awards show, Cardi led the pack of nominations, earning six nods, including ones for Best Collaboration, Best Female Hip Hop Artist, Video Director of the Year and Album of the Year.

And during the show, the "I Like It" rapper—who welcomed a baby boy with Stefon Diggs in November—took home the award for Best Female Hip Hop Artist, joking that the BET Award trophy was "heavier than my baby."

"This award means so much to me. Three babies later, put the album out, honey," Cardi—also mom to Kulture, 7, Wave, 4, and Blossom, 21 months, with ex Offset— shared. "Yes, I overcame my fear, my anxiety and I put it out, and guess what? Look, I won an award. I want to say thank you to my friends, my family [and] my fans, Bardi Gang."

And Cardi and Keke weren't the only ones who turned heads at culture's biggest night. For more show-stopping looks from the BET Awards, read on.
