I was thinking twice whether to blog this year's Billboard Awards or not because it wasn't really my favorite show after I saw it. Most of the nominees are the girls who were spotted along the audience.. Taylor Swift, Meghan Trainor, Iggy Azalea, and of course, Taylor Swift won the most awards for the night.. The award show was opened with the first time ever- the premiere of the anticipated music video produced by Taylor Swift, herself and bunch of her A-list BFFs; "BAD BLOOD"... To see the video, go here.
Here are some of the red carpet photos from The Billboard Music Awards 2015 at MGM Hotel, Las Vegas on Sunday...

My favorite performance is definitely from Ed Sheeran.. Ugh he's so talented, love him!
Been to American Music Awards for the last 2 years, but not this year... Just spending my first day off of the week, watching it from TV and I am loving it already! Taylor Swift first opened the show with her entertaining choreographic acts on stage while singing "Blank Space." Her night was also rewarded by the legendary Diana Ross with the Dick Clark Award of Excellence. Tay-Tay must have felt like on top of the world for all her remarkable achievements at the age of 24.
Bravo to her best friend, Selena Gomez, who delivered a heart-felt performance of her newest single, "The Heart Wants What It Wants," which later on shed tears to Taylor Swift at the end.
Another heartbroken song performed by Sam Smith who understands well how it feels to be lonely.
Lots of energetic and passionate performances on #AMAs 2014, so it's worth watching!

A quick post before I crash the
bed... I got the chance to go see The 40th Anniversary of American Music Award
!!! :) Last year I had the chance to sit near the top pop stars sitting on
front rows, watching them chatting to one another with their fellow stars, and
walking down the aisle with their beautiful gowns or suits receiving awards...
This year is a bit different ! Justin Bieber came with another date, which is
not Selena Gomez, but his own mom! :) Isn't that sweet??! He does not wear a
suit, but a cool black outfit with his red high top sneakers! He rocked the
night out! He won 3 awards, defeating any other artists. Last year was Katy
Perry, winning 5 categories in 1 award on 1 night .. Amazing!... Talking about
Selena Gomez’s bestie,… Taylor Swift amazed me in her performance tonight ! She
was rocking the stage like a rock star J Compared to her all time favorite soft performances, I like her
with a lil bit of wild side I might say … Nicki Minaj, unique as usual, receive
2 awards… Well I can tell you more in depth story about tonight’s show, but I’ll
let you see and read the info tomorrow morning on TV or any news media J After all,
pictures worth a thousand words right??
Sorry if the pic resolution isn't
that great because I am not allowed to bring my slr camera :(
