      Jay-Z won the Michael Jackson Award for Best Soul/Rap Video for "Show Me What You Got” at the 21st Annual Soul Train Music Awards, held at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium.

      The Isley Brothers won best album by a group for Baby Makin’ Music and Ronald Isley, currently waiting to begin a 37-month prison sentence for tax evasion, performed an ode to the late great James Brown.

      Jennifer Hudson, who last month won a best supporting actress Oscar for the movie musical "Dreamgirls," was given the Sammy Davis Jr. Award for Entertainer of the Year.

Top honors went to Mary J Blige and Jamie Foxx. Blige clinched the award for Best R&B/Soul Album – Female for The Breakthrough, while Foxx picked up the male award for his album, Unpredictable.

      But, neither Mary nor Jamie turned up to collect their awards at the ceremony. In fact, many of the winners in the competitive categories did not show up at the awards, including Beyonce, John Legend and Gnarls Barkley.
