While Keys will perform at the award show the first time since 2012, Bad Bunny will make his Billboard Awards debut with his performance. With restrictions set due to the coronavirus pandemic, it wasn’t clear if the performances will be live or pre-taped. The awards show was originally supposed to take place in April but was postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic, which caused a halt to live performances and TV and film productions. Kelly Clarkson will host the Billboard Awards. It will be the singer and talk show host’s third consecutive time emceeing the awards. Garth Brooks will receive the ICON Award. Malone’s 16 nominations include top male artist, top rap artist and the show’s biggest prize, top artist. Others competing for the top honour include Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift, Khalid, and Jonas Brothers. The 2019 ceremony saw Drake setting a new record with 27 total wins, beating out Taylor Swift for the title of all-time most awarded artist. Cardi B also had an impressive evening, winning six of her 21 nominations. (With inputs from The Associated Press)
