BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARDS 2013


One of the biggest music awards, the Billboard Awards 2013 held at the weekend in Sin City, Las Vegas, the US of A. The event was at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. And from all the pictures we have seen of those who attended it, it must have been mad fun. At occasions or events like this, it's always the opportunity for people to dress to high heavens or to show how stylish they can be. This year's occasion did not disappoint in anyway. Some of the stars were on point stylewise, while many were totally crazy. If our home stars/celebs were to wear those many of us would skin them alive, with our comments.


There were glorious performances from the likes of J Lo & Pitbull, the Icon himself, the one and only Prince Nelson Rogers, who also got the Icon Award (for 10 platinum albums & 30 top 40 singles) showed he was still a great musician, the incredible Nicki Minaj and her record label boss Lil Wayne gave an unforgettable performance (she gave him a very provocative lap dance), so also Miguel, Justin Bieber who was booed, performed with Will.i am, while his girlfriend Selena Gomez also performed. Miguel's performance would not be forgotten in a hurry for his accidental drop kick on a female fan.David Guetta performed with Akon & Ne-Yo, Chris Brown had a scintillating performance doing 'Fine China' it was him at his 'Kung Fu' best. Pitbull performed for he 2nd time with Christina Aguilera. But it was the incredible Bruno Mars that started the performances (16 in all). 

It was a 3 hours show, that was hosted by the hilarious Tracy Morgan, There were 45 awards categories in all.

Taylor Swift swept the awards winning 8 trophies in all. Gotye & Rihanna won 4 trophies each on the night, Madonna, Nicki Minaj & One Direction won 3 trophies each, while Justin Bieber, late Jenni Rivers, Beauer & Toby Mac all won 2 trophies each on the night.
