First Lady Michelle Obama declares 'Black Girls Rock!'
"There is nothing more important than being serious about your education," Obama said. "That's why I am able to stand here tonight. ... I want every one of our black girls do to the same, and our black boys."
"I know there are voices that you are not good enough," she said, acknowledging that she often lacked self-confidence growing up despite encouraging parents.
Will Smith gave an emotional tribute to his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, who received the Star Power award. Smith alluded to persistent rumors that the couple's marriage was in trouble.
Obama's speech was just one of many highlights of the nearly four-hour event, which will be shown Sunday, April 5. on BET.
"Each of those doubts was like a test," she said, "that I either shrink away from or rise to meet. And I decided to rise."
"In that brief moment my heart jumped for a second and I started to imagine what my life would have been like without that woman," he said as the couple's daughter, Willow, beamed from the audience.
Obama, who recently completed a trip to Japan and Cambodia as part of her worldwide push for better educational opportunities for girls, lauded the young honorees for excelling in their studies.

NEWARK, N.J. — First Lady Michelle Obama celebrated the beauty, power and tenacity of black women while spreading her own message of education for girls at Black Girls Rock! an annual event honoring trailblazing women of color from all walks of life.
Obama acknowledged as much in her speech to celebrate three young honorees.
Obama was not among the honorees at Saturday night's festivities, held at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center. That distinction went to actress lada Pinkett Smith, singer Erykah Badu, actress Cicely Tyson. "Selma" director Ava DuVernay, educator Nadia Lopez and Dr. Helene D. Gayle, president and CEO of CARE USA, a humanitarian organization.
He said when one rumor got out of control, he had a chance for reflection.
"I am so proud of you. My husband, your president, is so proud of you," she added. "We have so much hope and dreams for you."
When Pinkett Smith accepted the honor, she alluded to recent slights of black girls and women including a college baseball player's slur against Little League pitcher Moane Davis as reasons why Black Girls Rock! is necessary.
However, Obama was the most celebrated participant. Wearing a form-fitting white dress, she jammed to performances from the likes of Badu, Fantasia, Sheila E!, Estelle and others and applauded the honorees.
Obama got arguably the night's loudest ovation as she came on stage and declared "Black girls rock!" — the slogan and name of the organization founded by Beverly Bond. It is designed to uplift young black girls, a group that often has difficulty finding positive and reaffirming images of themselves in the world.
"No matter who you are, no matter where you come from, you are beautiful," Obama told the crowd, which included many young black girls.
She also implored black women to celebrate and be aware of their own strength.
"I need you to understand that we are the women who marched from cotton fields into fields of medicine ... politics ... entertainment," she said. "We have found a way to march into the White House."
