During the event, Taylor welcomes her mother, Nikki, and acknowledges the tremendous impact that she made in Taylor’s life before welcoming surprise guest Bobby Brown to the stage.

Gabrielle Union also will be seen tonight showering her mom Theresa with praise and thanking her for raising Gabrielle in a home filled with love, learning and acceptance before surprising her mom with an appearance by award-winning recording artist Ne-Yo who performs a medley of his hit singles “Good Man” and “Miss Independent.”

Jhené Aiko will be joined on stage by her daughter Namiko Love to perform a poem for her mother, and sing a song that they wrote together, “Sing To Me.”

Finally, guests also got to enjoy singer-songwriter’s Jessie J’s sweet tribute to her mother, Rose, who encouraged her to write music that stands the test of time. The phenom introduces her newest song “Queen” before getting the crowd on their feet with her rendition of the iconic hit “I’m Every Woman.”

After joking that his mom Teresa didn’t know what football was until he got to college, Colin Kaepernick talks about what his life was like growing up in a world where the privilege of his parents did not always protect him. He praises his mom for doing everything she could to give him the best possible life and says that she “chose [him]” and she’s “stuck with [him]!” Teresa joins him on stage, since “moms always have the final word” and says that Colin was always a wonderful son, student and athlete, and she’s overwhelmed with pride, even if he “doesn’t call his mom enough!”

In a sweet video message, Sean “Diddy” Combs and five of his children talk about all the things they love most about their “Mimi,” and Diddy takes the stage to recognize the tremendous sacrifice that his mom Janice made to ensure that he always had everything he needed.

We’d like to take this moment to bid a solemn farewell to the late Bobbi Kristina Brown who we featured here on Bellyitch when she was in her mom’s belly, as part of our tribute to singers who performed in videos while pregnant.

“Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away Sunday, July, 26 2015, surrounded by her family. She is finally at peace in the arms of God,” the Houston family wrote in a statement released to the press. “We want to again thank everyone for their tremendous amount of love and support during these last few months.”

At one point, Brown herself was rumored to be expecting with her then fiance Nick Gordon.

Brown was the only daughter of the late great powerhouse singer Whitney Houston and R&B singer and actor Bobby Brown. She died at 22 at a hospice.

She was found unresponsive in a bathtub on January 31st this year, and suffered irreversible brain damage.

Brown’s mom suffered a similar tragic fate, sadly also discovered in a bathtub after dying from a combination of  heart failure related to a reported drug overdose. It was the day before the 2012 Grammy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles, California.

Our thoughts and prayers are also with gospel great Cissy Houston, who not only had to bury her daughter but also her granddaughter in under a span of 5 years, outliving them both.

This is one of our fave songs, not just because of its uniqueness, but because it was the first time we heard little Bobbi featured in one of her mom’s songs (at :30 “Sing Mommy” and at 4:10″Clap Your Hands” )

Today, this lyric (below) from this song is so prolific!
your love

Rest in Paradise, Bobbi!
