2017 Billboard Music Awards

I’m going to let you in on a little secret: if you see a star in the audience at the Billboard Music Awards, they will win. And, unfortunately, this is why we were Selena Gomez/The Weeknd/Justin Bieber-less. I don’t know about you guys, but I really need more front row Taylor Swift at these things. Selfishly crossing my fingers that her new beau inspires a few bangers so she’s back in the running next year…

The pink carpet was a scorching 94 degrees in Vegas, but that didn’t stop artists from dressing their best feet forward. Baywatch movie star, Alexandra Daddario stunned in a deconstructed Vivienne Westwood dress which got my vote for best dressed gal. I’m sure it’s NO surprise that I’m giving my best dressed dude to The Chainsmokers. Stylist, Siena Montesano had them looking so sick in Valentino. It blows my mind that just a little over a year ago, no one knew who these guys were. They debuted their song, “Young” and took home an award or two. Well deserved.
