We’re just days away from the 2019 Billboard Music Awards<\/a><\/strong>!<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, May 1, Kelly Clarkson<\/a><\/strong> will take the stage at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas to host the musical ceremony<\/a> for the second year in a row. Cardi B<\/a><\/strong>, Ariana Grande<\/a><\/strong>, Drake<\/a><\/strong>, Travis Scott<\/a><\/strong>, Post Malone<\/a><\/strong>, as well as the late XXXTentacion<\/strong>, are among the top nominated artists<\/a> at this year’s award show, with Cardi leading the way with 21 nods.<\/p>\n

In celebration of this year’s ceremony, we’re looking back at the award show five years ago. Do you remember watching the 2014 Billboard Music Awards<\/a><\/strong>? That year, stars like Jennifer Lopez<\/a><\/strong> (who received the Icon Award) and then-boyfriend Casper Smart<\/a><\/strong> hit the red carpet at the ceremony, along with Carrie Underwood<\/a><\/strong>, Nicki Minaj<\/a><\/strong> and Sarah Hyland<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Justin Timberlake<\/a><\/strong> dominated the award show in 2014 with multiple wins, as did Miley Cyrus<\/a><\/strong> and Imagine Dragons<\/strong>. Robin Thicke<\/a><\/strong>, T.I.<\/a><\/strong> and Pharrell Williams<\/a><\/strong>‘ hit song “Blurred Lines” also scored four awards at the 2014 show.<\/p>\n

So, as we prepare for this year’s ceremony, let’s take a look back at the red carpet of the 2014 Billboard Music Awards!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
