Last night's BET Awards had many moments that'll be talked about for a long time. One of which was Diddy's speech while accepting his Lifetime Achievement Award. Babyface and Kanye honored Diddy before he came out to accept his award and when he came out, his speech was 9 minutes thanking everyone from his mom, to Bobby Brown, to Andre Harrell.  But it was when he recognized the people who held him down during some very dark times in his life that got people talking. He thanked his ex girlfriend Cassie. All of this happened while his current GF Yung Miami held a "GO PAPI" sign in the audience. You can watch Diddy's acceptance speech, see the tribute performance AND see the complete list of winners below:
