Chris Brown racked up at the BET Awards receiving five trophies for his new album, but was involved in a little mix-up when one of his awards was mistakenly given to his ex-girlfriend Rihanna for her collaboration with Drake.

While squinting at the teleprompter, presenter Tiffany Green announced, ”And the winner is . . .Chris Brown?” Before Brown could accept his award, Green quickly corrected herself. “I’m sorry . . . Rihanna!”

Rihanna was not in attendance, so Drake, the featured artist in her video “What’s My Name?” accepted the award on her behalf. ”Well, this is awkward,” the rapper, 24, told the audience.

Later in the telecast, host Kevin Hart announced that Brown had actually won the Coca-Cola Viewers’ Choice Award — not Rihanna and Drake. WHAT?!? BET’s President of Music Programming and Specials, Stephen Hill, took responsibility for the mistake, Tweeting: ”That BET Awards Viewers Choice mix-up was due to human error. And I was the human that made that error. I apologize to all affected.”

Okay, that was weird and uncomfortable.
