Soul Train Music Award for Sammy Davis Jr. – Entertainer of the Year

This page lists the winners and nominees for the Soul Train Music Sammy Davis Jr. Award for Entertainer of the Year. At times the award was given out twice in a year, honoring male and female artists separately. Beyoncé was the only artist to have won this award twice in the show's history (once solo and once with Destiny's Child) until 2009, when Michael Jackson was posthumously awarded his second Entertainer of the Year.
