The Billboard Music Awards 5 Crazy and Awkward Things You Missed

Date:

The Billboard Music Awards were handed out at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas yesterday. Ludacris and Chrissy Teigen co-hosted the event, airing live on ABC.

The Billboard Music Awards featured live performances from Van Halen, Mariah Carey, Kanye West and many more.

Here are the top 5 things you probably missed (or need to see again) at the Billboard Music Awards 2015.

1. Giuliana Rancic’s Awkward Kiss with Kendall Jenner

Giuliana Rancic leaned in for a European double kiss with Kendall Jenner on the red carpet at the Billboard Music Awards. Unfortunately for Rancic, Jenner must not have visited France in a while. The result? An awkward kiss on live TV.

2. Harry Styles got caught grabbing a bandmate’s crotch at the Billboard Music Awards

While his bandmates are fighting behind the scenes, Harry Styles is making sure everyone’s testicles are healthy.

3. Kanye West became a pyromaniac


In a performance that would make a firefighter uncomfortable, Kanye West light the stage on fire performing live “All Day” and “Black Skinhead”.

4. Wiz Khalifa made the entire crowd cry

Wiz Khalifa, Charlie Puth and Lindsey Stirlingtook to the stage to perform “See You Again” at the Las Vegas MGM Grand Garden Arena on Sunday night. Video from the ‘Furious 7’ movie played in the background while Wiz Khalifa sang his heart out out (sans shoes) on stage.

5. Britney Spears and Iggy Azalea love to lip-sync

Britney Spears and Iggy Azalea teamed up for the Billboard Music Awards to sing “Pretty Girls”. Since, singing is too hard for pop-stars, the crowd was graced with two dancers and professional lip-singers.
