V.I.P. tickets for the BET Experience go on sale Wednesday at 2 p.m. Eastern. General tickets go on sale Friday. More performers will be announced later.
BET Experience will also include the BET Fan Fest at the Los Angeles Convention Center, featuring a celebrity basketball game, celebrity meet and greets, and seminars.
Fans immediately chimed in on Twitter.
One fan said “I see shoes flying. Wig!”
Other fans asked for the two to bury the hatchet: “duet please,” “collab,” “collab pls, squash beef for good.”
Still, other fans were shocked to hear the two would headline the same concert: “OMG Bich,” “hope beef is over.”
