For gala appearances, celebrities usually come up with very special look creations. So also this year on the red carpet, or rather the record, the Billboard Music Awards 2022 in LA
In addition to bizarre, beautiful and crazy outfits, such as Kylie Jenner’s nude dress, there were also musical highlights. US singer Mary J. Blige, who was only part of the Superbowl halftime show in February, was honored with the prestigious ICON Award, presented to her by Janet Jackson. The music superstar then reflected on the true meaning of being an “icon” on stage and how hard she’s worked to achieve that status.
“The way the world is now, I suspect people think that icons are born to become legends overnight, but that’s definitely not the case. It takes a lot of time, hard work and a lot of will to survive, but also trials and mistakes to achieve greatness,” she shared, later adding, “The message of my music has always been that we are not alone in our struggles, and I am not alone. For so long I’ve been looking for real I was looking for love, but I finally found my true love – and that true love is me.”
Another surprise came from the Rockstar Machine Gun Kelly. As he took the stage and before performing his hit “Twin Flame,” he not only dedicated the performance to his “wife,” Megan Fox, but also to their “unborn child.” Which caused fans to freak out and sparked online speculation that the couple might be pregnant and secretly married. Megan Fox, who appeared at the event in a vampire-like evening dress, remained silent on her significant other’s innuendos.
