As mayor of this year's BET Experience, a four day celebration of endless entertainment with performances by Nicki Minaj, Snoop Dogg, and more, we decided to put Tyrese Gibson's decision making skills to the test by crowning him mayor of Los Angeles. Sure, he's the head honcho and lead host for BETX, but what if Miley Cyrus' excessive twerking started a city-wide riot around town? Mayor Tyrese, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?!

Pirate ships have swarmed the Santa Monica pier and Johnny Depp is to blame.

Tyrese: No. We gotta shut it all down. We're not playin' that. We're not playin' pirate ships coming near the pier. Under my watch, that's not happening.
