Drake has big night at Billboard Awards; encourages the audience of musicians to let their fellow artists 'know that you love them (and) respect them while we're all still here' following recent deaths.

Drake won multiple honors at the 2019 Billboard Music Awards on Wednesday night and encouraged the audience of musicians to give their peers their flowers while they're still alive.

The rap star, who walked into Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena with 17 nominations, also won top Billboard 200 album, beating out Cardi B, Travis Scott, Post Malone and the late XXXTentacion. "I still can't believe we're here on this stage with so many great artists," RM said as fans screamed loudly."We're still the same boys from six years ago, we still have the same dreams ... we still have the same thoughts. Let us keep dreaming."

The show was a family affair: Ciara's husband, NFL player Russell Wilson, and young son danced along while she worked the stage, and Nick and Joe Jonas gave kisses to Priyanka Chopra and Sophie Turner of"Game of Thrones" fame when they sang in the audience before hitting the stage. Cardi B, the night's top nominee with 21, locked lips with husband Offset on the red carpet and the couple sat closely inside the venue. She will compete for top artist along with Drake, Scott, Malone and Ariana Grande.

A marching band kicked off Swift's performance — like most of the world, maybe Swift was inspired by Beyonce's new Coachella film? Dancers also spun in the air holding umbrellas.

'It's heartbreaking': Paula Abdul talks father's death, Billboard Music Awards performanceAfter scoring six No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, Paula Abdul will perform a career-spanning medley on Wednesday's Billboard Music Awards. Always hard to become an orphan at any age. I have been one now for 5 years almost. Even as an adult it just effects you a lot. Was always a fan of hers since the 80’s. Used too go out and dance a LOT to her songs on Friday nights..so many fond memories. ❤️❤️ Two incorrect parts of the article. 1) Paula's last awards show performance was NOT the 1990 AMAs. 2) Paula did go back to choreography after her time as a pop star, but she did Janet and those 2 movies mentioned in the article BEFORE her pop star career.
