In a night that mostly celebrated last year’s hits, and introduced a few new tracks, the Billboard Music Awards (BBMAs) took place in a crowdless theater after being postponed from its original date and venue (Las Vegas in May) due to the coronavirus pandemic. Kelly Clarkson hosted the make-up show from Los Angeles.
Televised acceptances included Billie Eilish for top female artist; Lizzo, who delivered a powerful speech (and wore a dress adorned with the word Vote) for top song sales; Luke Combs for top country artist; Lil Nas X for top Hot 100 song and Post Malone, the night’s big winner, who racked up nine awards including top artist and top rap album for “Hollywood’s Bleeding.” Post also performed on the show from a remote “secret location” in Los Angeles.
