What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas! Unless your being taped in front of a live audience of screaming fans and musical peers to be shown around the world...
The 2015 Billboard music awards kicked off Sunday night at the Las Vegas MGM Grand Arena and brought out some of the music industry's most talented and hottest artists to date!
The show was hosted by super model and Academy Award winning singer John Legend's wife, Chrissy Teigen (who show stopped in multiple gown changes for the night) and Fast and Furious co-star and rapper, Ludacris.
To kick off the show America's sweetheart turned fashion icon Taylor Swift delivered a special gift to her Swiftees wrapped in the form of a brand new hot spankin' visual for her latest track "Bad Blood" with guest appearances from her besties Selena Gomez, Zendaya, Jessica Alba, and Lena Dunham and also featured Grammy award winning rapper Kendrick Lamar, who not only lent his presence, but a few bars of his own to the Max Martin and Shellback produced track.
On deck to grace the stage at the BBMAs were a few of our favorite A-listers including Mariah Carey who performed her first number 1 hit "Vision Of Love" before introducing her new single titled "Infinity" from her forthcoming album "#1 to Infinity." Wiz Khalifa, Brittney Spears and Iggy Azalea, Pit Bull and Chris brown, Nicki Minaj with spin master David Guetta and Kanye West also took to the stage.
Check out some of the most talked about performances below.
Mariah Carey dazzled in a sequined floor length gown as she serenaded the crowd with her debut hit, "Vision Of Love" and latest single "Infinity." Not the Mariah I grew up on but nevertheless she got through the performance.
Wiz Khalifa blessed the stage with his #1 hit single (for 5 weeks in a row) "See You Again" while breaking out in praise dance, all with the help of Charlie Puth and violinist Lindsey Sterling. The Paul Walker tribute was Introduced by Fast and Furious co-stars Tyrese and Ludacris.
If there's one thing Britney Spears wanted us all to know its that she's back and here to stay! Performing her new hit song "Pretty Girls" with Iggy Azalea in an all black sheer and latex cat suit Britney demanded to show the new school who paved the way for the Zendayas, Mileys and Ariana Grandes of the world, and proved that she was the princess of pop then, the queen of pop now, and will be ruling the game for years to come.
Latin King rapper Pit Bull and RnB crooner Chris Brown wowed the crowd while cha-cha-ing and getting down to their latest Michael Jackson Thriller inspired collabo "Fun." The duo was introduced by a stunning looking J.Lo. who showed off her very fit (and envious) physique in a -- you guessed it!-- another see through sparkling gown!
It's Barbie witches! Nicki Minaj had all the barbz bouncing and singing (including Taylor Swift and Zendaya) along to her chart topping singles "The Night Is Still Young" and the David Guetta produced track "Hey Mama." The raptress sashayed and danced her way across the stage while donning her signature bootylicious get up consisting of a black fitted shoulder puff jacket, bra, and feathered mini skirt.
Mr. West...excuse me, Dr. West is in the building! Kanye came through to close out the show after kid sisters Kylie and Kendall Jenner introduced their newest big brother. Yeezy set the stage on fire (literally) as he performed "All Day" and "Black Skinhead." From the crowds facial expressions the performance looked to be nothing short of amazing! Too bad all the viewers at home couldn't tell what was going on from all the smoke and censored lyrics.
