Drake ha vinto ben 13 premi ai Billboard Music Awards, vincendo più di qualunque altro artista in un solo anno e battendo il record precedente di 12 premi vinto da Adele nel 2012.

Forte delle sue 22 nomination (lo stesso numero dei  The Chainsmokers, che alla fine tornano a casa con 4 premi), Drake si è aggiudicato riconoscimenti prestigiosi come Top Artist davanti a Beyoncé, Adele e Rihanna, e Top Streaming Song (Audio) per il suo singolo “One Dance“. Lo stesso Drake si è poi esibito nella famosa fontana del Bellagio Hotel di Las Vegas con il suo brano “Gyalchester“. Altre performances della serata hanno visto salire sul palco Lorde, Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars, Nicki Minaj e Cher, che ha vinto l’Icon Award e che ha eseguito due suoi classici, “Believe” e “If I could turn back time“.

Non poteva mancare il tributo a Chris Cornell, cantante dei Soundgarden e degli Audioslave recentemente scomparso, e ci hanno pensato gli Imagine Dragons che, poco prima di eseguire il loro brano “Believer”, hanno parlato per bocca del loro frontman Dan Reynolds: “Chris Cornell degli Soundgarden e Audioslave era un vero innovatore, un architetto musicale e un pioniere che si è sempre destreggiato sul filo del movimento grunge a Seattle. Era un cantautore prolifico, un performer leggendario, un cantante con una voce speciale e un filantropo. Anche se ora Chris non c’è più, la sua eredità continuerà. Mandiamo il nostro cordoglio e tutto il nostro amore alla sua famiglia.”
