A source familiar with BET’s plans said Tuesday that Cissy Houston will take the stage at the July 1 awards show to honor her daughter. She’ll be joined by “a few top divas,” the source said, though the source would not reveal their identities.

The source spoke on condition of anonymity because the tribute has not been officially announced.

The BET Awards airs live from The Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Kanye West, Beyonce and Jay-Z are the top nominees.
