Gracing the red carpet in a swirling black gown, the older Bailey sister opted for much less for her performance later in the night, stunning the crowd with a vocally impressive and steamy performance of her two latest singles — complete with a lap dance onstage.

Stepping out on stage first in a shiny black coat, she started it all off with “Surprise,” which she delivered in perfect sync with a matching squad of back-up dancers.

The song, released in June from her upcoming solo debut album, is one of her most sultry tracks to date, which she underscored Sunday night by delivering a lap dance to one lucky (blindfolded) man on stage.

Whipping off her coat to bare a slinky black leotard, she still managed to hit all of her runs while propping herself on the man in the chair — a skill certainly acquired from the Beyoncé school of performance.

Midway through, Chlöe transitioned into “Treat Me,” her second solo single and assertive anthem, as she reintroduced herself to the crowd. “BET, my name is Chloe. Miss Bailey if you nasty,” she said.

Moving to the front of the stage, she ended her performance on what appeared to be a remixed version of “Treat Me,” capping her four minutes off with a sharp dance sequence.

Still, proving her reigning vocal talent, she paused in the last few minutes of the song to add more runs and vocal flourishes.

Chlöe’s been teasing the arrival of her solo debut album since the summer of 2021. In March, she revealed that she finished the album, though a release date still hasn’t been announced.

That being said, it was still a big night for Chlöe, who was up for Best Female R&B/Pop Artist and Best Group with her sister, Halle Bailey, though she didn’t win either.
