It was a memorable night at the 2015 BET Awards as Janet Jackson became the Ultimate Icon, Diddy fell onstage and Nicki Minaj didn't know what she won.

Janet Jackson received a standing ovation as she's honored at the BET Awards on Sunday night.

Janet looked stunning in a chic white pantsuit as she was presented with The Ultimate Icon Award. Her parents, Katherine and Joe Jackson, were in the audience.

Janet said, “My heart is so full, thank my beautiful mother and father and to my entire family. Your love is unbreakable.”

Janet didn't sing but she was given a big onstage tribute during the awards that were held in Los Angeles.

The show was filled with eye-popping moments like Rihanna who was in the front row, and put duct tape over the mouth of notoriously outspoken boxer Floyd Mayweather.
