There’s always the Ozone Awards.

The “hippest trip in America” has pulled the plug on its annual award show. Reuters Life is reporting that the Soul Train Music Awards has been cancelled without explanation. The brainchild of former Chicago DJ Don Cornelius, “Soul Train” was due to celebrate its 22nd award show this year, but a spokeswoman for the program said the show would not go ahead as planned.

At last year’s event in Pasadena, many of the winners did not bother to attend, including such A-listers as Beyonce Knowles, Mary J. Blige, John Legend and Gnarls Barkley. [source]

I knew the Soul Train Awards were on its last legs in 2004 when Arsenio Hall showed up looking like he asked Bubbs from The Wire for a couple of fashion tips and then turned around and co-hosted the show along with King Latifah the following year. Now how you love that?

Here are a few flashback flicks from last year’s show. Enjoy!
