BEBE WINANS
Legendary gospel artist BeBe Winans officially joins the BET family this September as one of the judges on "Sunday Best." His experience in the industry and ear for writing and interpreting real-life experiences through inspirational music (spiritual soul food, if you will), makes him an ideal judge of tomorrow's next big gospel star.
A groundbreaking inspirational, R&B, and Gospel vocalist, writer, and producer, BeBe has won four Grammy Awards, 10 Dove Awards, six Stellar Awards, two NAACP Awards and a Soul Train Award. A multi faceted artist, BeBe not only has a successful recording career, but also recently launched a syndicated radio show and returned to acting in both film and theater.
As a member of gospel music royalty, BeBe’s success is truly a family tradition. The seventh of 10 children, BeBe began his career as a background singer for his famous brothers (The Winans) before teaming with sister CeCe Winans in 1987 for an amazing run of smash hits and platinum-selling albums. BeBe has also recorded songs with such entertainers as Stevie Wonder, Brain McKnight and Whitney Houston.
BeBe and CeCe had success with such hits as, "Heaven", "I'm Lost Without You", and the number one hits "Addictive Love" and "I'll Take You There."
