Firstly, we need to talk about Diddy! He brought so much joy to the stage last night, from being an excellent host to performing multiple hits with artists such as Teyana Taylor and Jack Harlow. 

Speaking of performances, there were many incredible moments on the stage last night. Latto brought all the energy to the BBMA’s with her performances of ‘Big Energy’. 

Becky G delivered a stellar performance of ‘Mamiii’ and ‘Baile Con Mi Ex’, as she wore a sultry black leather and lace ensemble.

Megan Thee Stallion took to the stage in custom Mugler, bringing us a medley of ‘Sweetest Pie’ and her latest sassy release ‘Plan B’.

Of course, the main event of the BBMA’s is the awarding, and several artists won big last night. Drake annihilated categories such as; Top Artist, Top Male Artist and Top Rap Album… just to name a few! Whereas Olivia Rodrigo took home many awards including; Top Billboard 200 Album, Top Billboard 200 Artist, Top Female Artist and many more. Other big winners included Doja Cat, BTS, Taylor Swift, Ye and Silk Sonic.

Janet Jackson presented Mary J. Blige with the prestigious Icon award, delivering an inspirational speech in which she went on to say;

“It takes a lot of time, hardwork and surviving trial and error to achieve greatness. What an icon means to me is overcoming obstacles to achieve the unthinkable, and being widely admired for having an influence over a multitude of people. That is what I’ve always represented” 

There’s no denying that great music was celebrated last night, but there were also some beautiful fashion looks that we need to talk about!

Doja Cat

Stunning the awards last night was the incredible Doja Cat, who wore an other worldly Schiaparelli design from head to toe.

Chloe Bailey

Chloe Bailey dominated in this all-black leather look, accessorised with gold jewellery to add a goddess touch to this strong appearance.

Megan Thee Stallion

As per usual, Meg stuck to her hot girl agenda and wore a daring, seductive outfit. Complete with cut out detailing and transparent jewellery, this look was innovative and eye catching.

Latto

Latto went all out with her look, appearing equally majestic and glamorous.

Teyana Taylor 

Bringing the grunge our way last night was Teyana Taylor, who wore low waisted leather trousers, with a black bralette and super cool shades. Taking the look to the next level, Teyana added exaggerated silver chain accessories.

Kali Uchis

Kali was our lady in red, as she wore a gorgeous red gown with the cutest scarlet bag to add a sweet touch to her hot look.

Becky G

Prior to her all black performance fit, Becky G lit up the red carpet with an angelic lilac mini dress complete with all the feather and sequin detailing we could wish for!

Megan Fox & Machine Gun Kelly

Couple of the moment Machine Gun Kelly & Megan Fox brought all the seductiveness to the red carpet, as they both wore all-black outfits with silver crystallised detailing to add a pop of sparkle.

Anitta

Looking sweet as ever, Anitta wore a pink chainmail floor-length gown courtesy of the hottest collection around; Fence (Fendi X Versace).

The post Everything You Need To Know About Last Night’s Billboard Music Awards appeared first on Voir Fashion.

This year’s award season has made us all dream in many ways, and last night’s Billboard Music Awards were no exception. From slowly easing our way out of the pandemic, to all the fashion breakthroughs that arose from this time, there is a breeze of hope and desire that is evidently making magical things happen – at least on the red carpet. The night of fashion, packed with the best-dressed A-listers, was a guaranteed success, and it perfectly sparked our ever so burning desire to be able to go out again. Let’s indulge our eyes in yesterday’s outfits.

MEGAN FOX IN MUGLER

Celebs’ love for the fashion house is an intricately exquisite affair, and one that will definitely persist in the future. She accompanied his boyfriend Machine Gun Kelly, but his Balmain look was negligeable when paired next to her stunning bodysuit dress. Despite it was his magical night, he let Megan be the star. After all, they are both sensational no matter their outfits.

DOJA CAT IN BALMAIN

We are all in awe with Doja. From her insane talent to her mesmerizing outfits, her looks perfectly encapsulate the essence of her music, in a way that complements her personality exquisitely and that all celebrities should learn from. Our star even differentiated herself from the rest by pulling off a Balmain look from the archives, which in fashion is considered to be a bold, brave move, just like her. The striped bandeau top with big puffy sleeves works wonders with the geometry of the look, and it is paired with a vintage looking pair of flared trousers with the same motif and an open bottom. But the real focus is on the necklace: the songstress wowed the audience with a turquoise crystal looking pendant. It’s dramatic, it’s hippy, it’s quirky and it’s camp: it’s Doja.

KAROL G

Karol wears a stunning crystal mesh bodysuit dress by Celia Kritharioti. The dress is everything we’ll want to wear this season: from the divine draping to the open cut in the front, the dress immaculately hugs her body to perfection whilst giving homage to a designer that isn’t so much on the celeb spotlight, and it clearly should.

SAWEETIE

Saweetie is wearing an orange gown by Giambattista Valli Haute Couture. The singer is always challenging her look execution, and we just can’t stop watching!

ALICIA KEYS

The singer wears a coral pink Valentino co-ord for this year’s Billboard awards, with a long statement trail coat that really brought the look from casual to dressy. The look was designed especially for the star by Pierpaolo Piccioli himself, and Keys wears it with pride and glamour.

KEHLANI

The R&B legend is wearing Tony Ward Couture. We don’t know why puffy sleeves that seem to be poorly made are so loved this season; nonetheless, the top paired with this gown actually complements the look in a good way, and Kehlani definitely knows how to champion the colour red.

PRIYANKA CHOPRA

The presenter of the night wears a stunning Dolce & Gabbana gown. Despite the turbulent history of the brand, we can’t take our eyes off this magnificent creation. The detailing around the décolleté, as well as the crystals along the bodysuit are divine, and with its simple sophistication she was easily one of the best dressed of the night.

GABRIELLE UNION

Another presenter of the night, Gabrielle Union, wears a white Prada dress to show her stunning figure at 48, paired with a cute pink Prada bag.

HER

H.E.R wears red sequined Dior and her statement shades-on look, this time opting for aviators this time. The bold lip and simple silver jewellery complement the look well.

This year’s Billboard Music Awards brought the heat. We were obsessed with the bold bright colours and playful shapes sported by trendsetting celebrities as they strutted down the red carpet, but also the more soft Hollywood glam to complement the make-you-stare outfits. Check out the roundup of our favourite looks and the products used to achieve them below.

Doja Cat

Wow, this look is HUGE. We love the graphic eyeliner with a pop of turquoise to match her statement necklace, the sci-fie-esque eyebrows and the baby hairs curled to perfection just hit the spot. The eyeliner is the Suva Beauty Hydraliner and was applied by makeup artist Ernesto Casillas. Doja Cat never fails to make a statement anywhere she goes.

SZA

You can’t go wrong with a classic black cat eye, especially when you’re SZA. Her longtime glam squad makeup artist, Deanna Paley said ‘SZA’s dress was striking and I wanted to bring out her features and keep it classic.’ She used all Charlotte Tilbury products (the queen of all classic makeup) to create this subtle look. If you, like us, want to recreate the look somewhere down the line, get the Eyes to Mesmerize Cream Shadow pot ‘Star Gold,’ the Airbrush Flawless Foundation and the classic Pillow Talk lip liner.

Under golden lights and sparkles, with a JUICY stage of capital letters in the style of the best Broadway shows, this 24-year-old girl brought us a presentation full of elegance, cabaret, and sensuality.

The artist nominated for best R&B song for ‘Juicy’ ft Tyga, surprised us at the last edition of the Billboard Music Awards with a presentation inspired by the 1920s. Her movements and style, taken from the film, gave her an original and catchy touch to this show version of his songs ‘Juicy’, ‘Say So’ and, ‘Like That’

Her performance impressed more than one with praise in her social media by great artists such as Cristina Aguilera and with a post on Instagram of her presentation with more than 409 thousand likes and two thousand comments.

Along with dancers with sultry, stylized female touches, Doja Cat gifted us with an iconic choreography to the 1972 hit Broadway by cinematographer Bob Fosse. Her confident and sensual style captured the red and white lights backed by a wooden chair that highlighted her potential.

Under the creative styling of Brett Alan Nelson, with a Roxie-style outfit by Renee Zellweger with the typical bob with waves to the guide of the 20s plus a fringed and silver sequin dress with sparkling touches and lustful and stunning crystals as her talent.

Not only her cabaret-style left everyone hypnotized, but also her awards entrance outfit, a Georges Hobeika mermaid cut dress and transparent mesh with silver and violet crystals by Lorraine Schwartz that exalted her figure complemented with Amina Muaddi shoes along with to a hair styled by Jared “JStayReady” Henderson pumpkin colour, worthy of the Autumn 2020 season, and a makeup custom by Adam Burrell in warm tones and peach to match.

With a great explosive ending, Doja Cat closed its presentation with a memorable show… we keep snapping our fingers with this version and we want more!

Even though there was no one around to witness this year’s Billboard Music Awards, there were still many show-stopping moments throughout the show, from Post Malone sweeping the floor with the most awards of the night to some incredible performances, we’re here to let you know all the talking points.

It was no surprise that Post Malone had won the most awards at this years ceremony considering the year he has had, he picked up nine awards overall while taking home the top artist prize to end the night and winning nine awards overall. Following Post Malone was Khalid who picked up five awards.

The ceremony opened with host Kelly Clarkson providing us with a tear-jerking monologue. “Tonight is about the way music touches us all because music connects with us in so many ways. No matter who you are, it moves us, sometimes Literally,” said Clarkson, adding “We dance. We sing. We cry, like I do often. It brings back those good memories and it also helps us make new ones”.

As always with award shows, often the looks take the spotlight and this year’s awards are no exception. Perhaps the most jaw-dropping was Lil Nas X’s, sporting a light green Gucci suit in a snakeskin print, while giving us major Prince vibes with his new curly bangs.

Post Malone continued to be the star of the show with one of the best performances of the night at a “top secret” location. Parading around an industrial yard stage, Post performed his smash hit ‘Circles’ and then his Tyla Yaweh collab “Tommy Lee”, with Yaweh himself, which made for one of the most electrifying performances of the night.

Some of the other captivating moments of the night included Doja Cat embracing musical theatre with a burlesque-inspired performance. Doja sported a throwback dress and wig with an old-Hollywood sense of showmanship. Lizzo provided a big statement during her acceptance speech for top song sales artist while wearing a dress covered with the repeated word, “VOTE”. She then went on to say “I’ve been thinking a lot about suppression, and the voices that refuse to be suppressed,” later adding “and I wonder, would I be standing here right now, if it wasn’t for the big black women who refused to be suppressed?”.

The unofficial award for most emotional performance will most certainly be going to John Legend. He performed a solo ‘Never Break’ on piano, the singer dedicated the performance to his wife Chrissy Teigen after their recent personal tragedy.

En Vogue closed out the awards with a rendition of anti-prejudice anthem ‘Free Your Mind’ as the group celebrated their 30th anniversary. Original members Terry Ellis and Cindy Herron were joined by Rhona Bennett as they performed one of their greatest hits and at one-point, Childish Gambino’s This Is America was sampled as black-and-white footage of civil rights marches played on screens behind the band members which provided a poignant and hard-hitting closing to the ceremony.
