The Billboard Music Awards hosts were Ludacris, in my opinion who was pretty good at hosting. The other host was Chrissy Teigen. Chrissy was quite rude during the show. She didn't help up the poor woman who tripped over her dress, and she was making fun of Meghan Trainor for some of the awards show about doing a duet with her husband, John Legend.
Music Video Premiere: Taylor Swift/Kendrick Lamar-Bad Blood
This was absolutely hands down the best music video I have ever seen. The picture quality was amazing. I loved how the video was set up and there was a lot of action, and of course generous Taylor asked some of her famous friends like Zendaya and Ellie Goulding to be in the video.
Rate: Outstanding
Fall Out Boy/Wiz Khalifa-Uma Thurman
This was okay, not really anything that interesting. Fall Out Boy was decent in this, but Wiz Khalifa didn't add much to the song.
Rate: Average
Nick Jonas-Jealous
This wasn't bad. I actually thought it was pretty good. Even though I can't stand the song anymore, Nick rocked this performance. Well done.
Rate: Outstanding
Hozier-Take Me To Church
This was okay. I mean, the song is just so ridiculously old I can't even stand it anymore. The performance wasn't horrible though.
Rate: Average
Kelly Clarkson-Invincible
This wasn't bad. This song isn't bad either. I thought Kelly did a pretty good job with this. Overall, it was pretty decent.
Rate: Interesting
Ed Sheeran-Bloodstream
I'm just glad that he didn't perform Thinking Out Loud. If he did, I probably would've died. Seriously. I am not a fan of this song, but the performance was okay.
Rate: Average
Meghan Trainor/John Legend-Like I'm Gonna Lose You
I like this song. It's pretty decent. I just love the way Meghan and John just kept the song the way it is when they performed it on stage. Overall, it was pretty decent.
Rate: Interesting
Britney Spears/Iggy Azalea-Pretty Girls
This performance was awesome. Definitely the way to kick off a world premiere performance. Wonderful job!
Rate: Outstanding
Jussie Smollett/Yazz/Estelle-Conquer and You're So Beautiful

Wiz Khalifa/Charlie Puth/Lindsey Stirling-See You Again
This was a tear jerker. Oh, how amazing this performance was. It was so good. I just wanted to cry when the video came up on the screen towards the end. Just incredible.
Rate: Outstanding
Mariah Carey-Vision Of Love and Infinity
This was not fun to watch. Never really been a fan of Mariah Carey.
Rate: Uninteresting
Tori Kelly-Nobody Love
I thought Tori Kelly did real good in this. This was a pretty nice acoustic performance.
Rate: Interesting
Kanye West-All Day and Black Skinhead
This was horrific. You could only hear him for 20% of his performance due to swearing. 20%! He deserved to be booed. Sorry Kanye, but you did.
Rate: Horrible
Nicki Minaj/David Guetta-The Night Is Still Young and Hey Mama
Great job! Really good performance Nicki and David!

I hate to sound rude, but 20% of the performance was BLEEPED. Out of 5:18, 1:02 was censored. Not the other way around. If you could only hear a minute of Kanye's performance…..…yeah, that would be unbelievable. D:
