Who Wore It Better? Janelle Monáe and Anthony Anderson Don Cheekless Chaps in Honor of Prince

The singer and actor battle it out on the BET Awards stage.

Whoa! We expected the stars to honor Prince throughout this year’s BET Awards, but NOBODY was prepared for this.

Janelle Monáe kicked off  her segment of the musical tribute wearing a white ensemble reminiscent of the iconic singer’s style. The ‘fit was super cute, but things got real cheeky real fast when she turned around and we got a glimpse of her bare derriere.

Immediately after her performance, host Anthony Anderson added to the shock value by donning a similar Prince-inspired outfit featuring — yes, you guessed it — cheekless chaps.

What was Tracee Ellis Ross's reaction after her co-host and Black-ish co-star went cheekless? “Can we all have a moment of silence,” was her response. Our sentiments exactly!

It is 2016 and a little cheek never hurt nobody, right? But we think it’s safe to say that Prince owned this look. Comment below and let us know who you think wore it best!
