Cam Newton knows how to make an entrance-and this year’s BET Awards was no exception. The former NFL MVP showed up Monday night in Los Angeles wearing a sleeveless floral vest, matching pants, a green scarf, brown cowboy hat, and glasses. It was loud, eccentric, and unmistakably Cam.
But the internet wasn’t the only one doing a double take. YouTubers Kai Cenat and Druski, seated in the front row in matching tuxedos, spotted Newton on stage and immediately broke into laughter. Their reaction? Brutal-but hilarious.
“He got a tablecloth on,”Druski said, nearly in tears from laughing, while Cenat tried to keep it together. The moment, caught on camera, instantly went viral. Within hours, the clip had racked up millions of views across TikTok, Twitter (now X), and Instagram. Social media, as usual, ran with it.
Cam Newton Got Roasted-Then Dropped Big News
Despite the fashion frenzy, Newton wasn’t just there to turn heads. He took the stage to announce his next chapter: a new show called “106 & Sports,”co-hosted with Ashley Nicole Moss.
“It’s about the culture around the game-the players, the stories, and most importantly, the fans,” Newton told the crowd. Moss followed up with a promise that things would get passionate: “We’re gonna laugh, we’re gonna debate, we’re definitely going to argue. But it’s always gonna be for the culture.”
The show aims to blend sports commentary with entertainment-exactly the kind of crossover Newton has leaned into since retiring in 2021.
He may not be throwing touchdowns anymore, but Cam Newton is still keeping the spotlight on him-whether it’s with a bold outfit or a brand-new show.
Also taking home trophies Monday night were Kendrick Lamar (Best Male Hip Hop Artist) and Jalen Hurts, who snagged the Sportsman of the Year award after leading the Eagles to a Super Bowl win and earning MVP honors, according to Bleacher Report.
But the lasting image of the night? Cam Newton, floral from head to toe, being roasted in real time-and handling it like a pro.
