Teyana Taylor was honored with the Icon of the Year Award at the 2026 BET Awards in a moment that instantly turned emotional. 🖤 The surprise of the evening came when Janet Jackson, Taylor’s biggest artistic inspiration — appeared on stage to present the award, leaving Taylor visibly shaken as she broke down in tears before delivering a heartfelt acceptance speech. #betawards #betawards2026 #teyanataylor #janetjackson
