Something to be "happy" about! The 2014 BET Awards nominations have been announced, and Beyonce and Jay Z dominate with four each. Drake follows close behind with three, and Pharrell Williams rounds out the top with nominations for his "Blurred Lines" collaboration with Robin Thicke, and his own song "Happy" in the Video of the Year category.
Other notable nominations include Justin Timberlake for Best Male R&B/Pop Artist, Ariana Grande for Best New Artist, and Scandal's Kerry Washington for Best Actress.
