BET. Honestly, I'm really getting tired of "Top 25 Sexiest Celebs" countdowns that EVERY network seems to do and don't get me started on the "Beef" specials and series! But I must admit I like the idea of a Money, Power, & Respect...a countdown of the 25 most influential African Americans based on their Money, Power, and Respect...It's very insightful because we're probably not familiar with most of these people. [List Below.] While watching, I was thinking to myself "they have some nice commentators" until I saw Miss Jones...I do have a feeling they are going be counting down the "Top 25 Internet Sites" next. haha
