Shortly after taking home the Best New Artist trophy at the 2022 BET Awards, Latto delivered one of the most memorable performances of the ceremony on Sunday night (June 26), highlighted by the surprise reveal of Mariah Carey arriving to sing through the remix of Latto\u2019s breakthrough smash, \u201cBig Energy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Latto started off the performance with a commanding presence, rolling through new single \u201cIt\u2019s Givin\u201d by pounding her fists, then dancing on a desk placed center stage. Naturally, she segued into her top 10 hit \u201cBig Energy,\u201d with Young Dirty Bastard joining the rapper to pay homage to the remix of Mariah Carey\u2019s \u201cFantasy,\u201d which \u201cBig Energy\u201d interpolates.<\/p>\n<p>After delivering the first half of the single, however, Latto deferred to a silhouette positioned center stage \u2014 which then evaporated into dozens of butterflies. Sure enough, Carey was on hand for a surprise reveal, performing part of \u201cFantasy\u201d and thoroughly bringing down the house at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>The performance ended with Carey and Latto embracing \u2014 one of multiple highlights for the latter on Sunday night, who took home the best new artist award. Latto became emotional while accepting the trophy, which she told the crowd was her very first award victory.<\/p>\n<p>Watch the performance below:\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/212443307415188784\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog_hollywood\/article2552_shop.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<div style=\"padding -bottom: 5px; padding-top: 5px;\" align=\"center\"><strong>Related Videos<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_69725\"  width=\"1140\" height=\"641\"  data-origwidth=\"1140\" data-origheight=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LQWOcDkC_KE?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&disablekb=0&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"twitter-timeline\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MariahCarey?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">Tweets by MariahCarey<\/a> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The rising rapper performed &#8220;It&#8217;s Livin&#8221; as well as her breakthrough top 10 hit.
