The singer's metallic gold minidress featured a structured bodice with a flowing skirt and asymmetric hemline. The dress perfectly coordinated with Carey's platform heels. She continued the gold motif with her jewelry, while her hair was styled with a middle part and worn straight and down.
Carey switched her style during the show upon accepting her Ultimate Icon Award. The singer's second look featured a floor-length white gown with visible boning and corsetry. The dress included a low-cut, sweetheart neckline.
Carey accentuated the allover shimmering gown with a diamond necklace topped with a large gemstone and rewore her stacks of bracelets from her performance. Carey regularly collaborates with stylist and designer Wilfredo Rosado.
For the 2025 BET Awards, Carey's hair was styled by Dior Sovoa, with makeup by Kristofer Buckle. Over the course of her career, Carey's style has certainly evolved. But the singer's appreciation for feminine silhouettes and shimmering elements remain consistent qualities.
Celebrating its milestone 25th anniversary, the 2025 BET Awards took place on Monday at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, honoring the best in Black music, entertainment, sports and culture. The event was hosted by comedian and actor Kevin Hart. Guests included Teyana Taylor, GloRilla and Leon Thomas, among others.

Kylie Kelce bonds with new Giants fan Ciara over ‘collective dislike' of Cowboys
Giants and Eagles fans may not agree on much, but they do share a mutual disdain for a certain NFC East franchise. During an appearance Thursday on Kylie Kelce's 'Not Gonna Lie' podcast, Ciara spoke about how she's gaining an understanding of the rivalries within husband Russell Wilson's new NFL division as quarterback of the Giants, with Kylie — the wife of Eagles legend Jason Kelce — noting she 'can see eye to eye' with New York supporters 'because we can collectively dislike the Cowboys together.' 'That's big facts,' replied Ciara, 39, who has been married to Wilson, 36, for nearly 10 years. 'I mean, I'm learning the territory wherever I am. And obviously that blue and silver and white team is definitely a good history there.' Advertisement 8 Kylie Kelce and Ciara spoke about the rivalries within the NFC East on 'Not Gonna Lie.' YouTube 8 They share a mutual dislike for the Cowboys. Bill Kostroun for New York Post Wilson, who agreed to a one-year deal with the Giants in March, will get his first taste of the Cowboys rivalry when Big Blue visits Jerry Jones and Co. in Week 2.

Dallas currently holds a 77-47-2 edge for all-time clashes. 8 Ciara's husband, Russell Wilson, is in his first season with the Giants.

YouTube Advertisement 'Everybody in this region, are diehard, I've never seen this thick,' Ciara said. 'I think it's more so the energy of this region. When we were in Seattle, we didn't have multiples — it was like us and the Niners, that was more defined.' A Super Bowl-winning quarterback with the Seahawks, Wilson spent the first 10 years of his career in Seattle, where he battled the 49ers for NFC West dominance. He spent two years in Denver after a 2022 blockbuster trade fell far short of expectations before landing in Pittsburgh for the 2024 season. 8 Russell Wilson made his Giants debut in the preseason in August 2025.

'My dad is from New York, so I have a little New York in my blood already,' she said on Thursday's show. 'Being here has been amazing because of the culture, the community — I've never seen this many playgrounds in a city. It's insane, it's so joyful. Seeing things from my kids' lens is really fun.' Advertisement Ciara and Wilson have been married since 2016 and have three children together: daughters Sienna Princess, 8, and Amora Princess, 1, and 5-year-old son Win Harrison. The singer is also a mom to son Future Zahir, 11, from a previous relationship. The Giants open the 2025 season on the road Sept. 7 against a fellow NFC East rival, the Commanders.

The hottest back-to-school item in Hialeah has teeth, a red tag and could cost $500
It was hard to look left or right at Westland Hialeah Senior High on the first day of school and not see a student with a Sprayground backpack. What's that, you may ask? It's a faux-leather backpack, the signature one with a shark-teeth design on the back. The coveted accessory has been gaining popularity over the past few years around Hialeah, according to an 11th grader at the school sporting a classic Sprayground with giant sharkteeth and a brown and black checkered background that resembles Louis Vuitton'' classic monogram. The bags come in dozens of designs, ranging from $65 to $500. 'They're cool,' the 11th grader told the Miami Herald. Addis Perez, 14, had one of the coveted backpacks. She and her whole squad of friends, all originally from Cuba, had the same design. Sprayground, a streetwear brand known for its art-inspired backpacks and its celebrity collaborations, was created 15 years ago by designer David BenDavid. The brand started off by dropping limited edition backpacks that became coveted collector's items. The collaborations include Nickelodeon favorites like SpongeBob SquarePants and games like Angry Birds. Versions spotted Thursday at Westland Hialeah High included Pink Panther, Snoopy, and all-black. The backpacks also glow in the dark. The red tags that come with the backpacks, students explained, are prized — and sometimes get swiped. There have been reports on social media of parents trying to superglue the red tags onto the bag in order to avoid them getting stolen. Although the backpacks are popular among students for their design and for having hidden pockets to hide things they are not allowed in school, adults at the school are not the biggest fans. 'The tags become an issue in school because the kids try to take them from each other,' said Lucy Trillas, the school's principal. 'I hate those tags.' Some students had multiple red tags hanging from their belt loops. 'It's cultural. They have throwbacks,' said Jazzlyn Diaz, the activities director at Westland Hialeah High. Her own son, a 10th grader, has one of his own. 'It's like this huge deal,' said Diaz. The Sprayground website says the mission of the brand is to express 'rebellion, individuality and creativity.' 'People just want to wear them because everybody wears them,' admits a student at Westland Hialeah Senior High. But student Caitlyn Blasco does not see the appeal. 'They look like they don't have enough storage. As someone who takes a lot of AP and Honors, I need more space,' said Blasco.

While Overcompensating is set at the fictional American Yates University, as it turns out — it's actually the University of Toronto!
