Billboard Music Awards Winners 2020 – Billie Eilish & More

After a nearly six-month delay, the 2020 Billboard Music Awards finally arrived to celebrate all the biggest stars in music. With so many nominees – from Taylor Swift to Lizzo to Da Baby – find out which of your faves won big tonight.

Following a half-a-year delay, due to COVID-19, the 2020 Billboard Music Awards aired on Oct. 14 from the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles. Will Kelly Clarkson returning for her third consecutive year as host, the BBMAs was a celebration of the power of music in a year that will – for better or worse – be forgotten anytime soon. The 2020 BBMAs promised appearances from artists like Alicia Keys, Bad Bunny, BTS, Sia, Saint Jhn, Doja Cat, and Demi Lovato. En Vogue and Brandy brought the 90s R&B realness to the stage, with the former singing their politically charged hit, “Free Your Mind.” Brandy, one month after her Verzuz battle with Monica, teamed up with Ty Dolla $ign to perform a medley of her trademark songs.

Garth Brooks was picked to receive this year’s Icon Award, and Killer Mike was chosen to receive the inaugural Billboard Change Maker Award. The award “highlights and recognizes the attributes of a true social justice warrior in the field of music who has made exemplary strides to lead the community in positive change-making advocacy,” said Datwon Thomas, MRC’s VP, Cultural Media and Consulting Producer for the Billboard Music Awards. “In partnership with a diverse committee of colleagues at MRC and our cultural inclusion committee, BLAC, we selected Killer Mike for his contributions to the current movement and culture and his tangible efforts to make national and grassroots change.”

Those weren’t the only awards handed out during the 2020 ceremony. Check out the list below (winners are in bold, and come back throughout the night to see which of your favorite artists took home a BBMA.)
