All of our fave YBF chicks made their way to the New Jersey Performing Arts Center Saturday night for the BET taping of Black Girls Rock! Check out all the fabulosity and non-stop gorgeousness that hit the carpet and the stage inside (plus, we’ve got a few spoilers about the show)….

It was a "Girlfriends" reunion on last night’s pink carpet!  Jill Marie Jones, Persia White, Tracee Ellis Ross and Golden Brooks looked their usual fab selves as they reunited to present the Shot Caller Award to the show’s creator, Mara Brock Akil.  Mara also gave a tearful and heartfelt speech in acceptance.

Persia, who recently starred on "Vampire Diaries", kept it simple and chic in this flowy grey dress.

And Tracee kept it edgy in all black as she posed it up with her good friend Regina King.  Both served as hosts of the show.

When Ms. Patti stopped Mariah from walking off stage and asked her to "hold her award", MiMi told her about her arm being "a little weak."  Ms. Patti snapped back and told her to hold that ish anyway.  Hilar!

Kelly Rowland and her sheer pants posed it up with her celeb trainer and workout DVD partner, Jeanette Jenkins, and Jeanette’s little Goddaughter Ada.  How precious!  Teaching the little ones early how much they rock…
