They're "back-ish!" The stars of the hit sitcom black-ish, Anthony Anderson and Tracee Ellis Ross, hosted the 2015 BET Awards last year and now they will be back for a second time. BET Networks, a unit of Viacom Inc., revealed Anthony Anderson and Tracee Ellis Ross as hosts for this year's BET Awards. Anthony and Tracee are also both nominated for "Best Actor" and "Best Actress" at the 16th annual event. The 2016 BET Awards will air LIVE on Sunday, June 26 at 8pm ET from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, CA on BET. View the full list of nominees, which includes recording artists, actors, entertainers, and athletes across 20 categories with the BET Awards 2016 nominations. The nominations are selected by BET's Voting Academy, which is comprised of fans and an esteemed group of entertainment professionals in the fields of television, film, music, social media, digital marketing, sports journalism, public relations, and the creative arts.
El Rey Network will pay tribute to the legendary heavyweight boxing champion Muhammad Ali on Wednesday, June 8 beginning at 10:00pm ET with a marathon of all 13 half-hour episodes of the 1977 animated series I Am the Greatest: The Adventures of Muhammad Ali only on El Rey Network. I Am the Greatest: The Adventures of Muhammad Ali aired on Saturday mornings on NBC in 1977 with voices provided by Ali and his real life publicist Frank Bannister. The series featured The Champ and Bannister traveling around the country fighting crime and solving mysteries – both real and supernatural. This will be the first time the series has been seen ever on cable and perhaps the first time in the U.S. since its 1977 original airings on NBC.
