<p><strong>Rihanna</strong> didn’t even attend the 2011 BET Awards but she’s a part of what will undoubtedly be the night’s most talked-about moment.</p>
<p>BET made a major snafu while announcing the winner of the fan-voted  Viewer’s Choice Award. A fan chosen to present the award announced <strong>Chris Brown</strong> as the winner of the award, but it was quickly announced that it was an error and Rihanna was actually the winner for her <strong>Drake</strong>-assisted chart-topper, “What’s My Name.” Drizzy <a href="http://allthings-fresh.net/blog/2011/06/26/video-drake-wins-bets-viewers-choice-award/" target="_blank">accepted the award</a> and noted the awkwardness of the moment in his speech. To make matters  more awkward, Chris Brown was the rightful winner of the award all  along, and, after many rage-filled tweets from fans to the network on  Twitter, the show’s host, comedian <strong>Kevin Hart</strong>, cleared up the mistake on-air.</p>
<p>So how does an awards show make an error so large and embarrassing? Simple. By having humans run it. At least that’s what BET’s <strong>Stephen Hill</strong> is blaming.</p>
<p>“That BET Awards Viewer’s Choice mix-up was due to human error. And I was the human that made that error,” he said <a href="http://twitter.com/StephenGHill/statuses/85200737344307200" target="_blank">in a tweet</a>, before offering his apologies to “ALL affected.”</p>
<p>RiRi wasn’t win-less last night. She walked away with <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Best Female R&amp;B artist</strong></span>.</p>
