Nigerian music star Ayra Starr has just made history, winning her first-ever BET Award for Best International Act at the 2025 BET Awards in Los Angeles!

The 22-year-old Afrobeats queen stunned the crowd and delivered a powerful speech, dedicating the win to young African girls with big dreams. Known for hits like “Rush”, “Commas”, and “Sability”, Ayra has quickly become a global force in music.
