Billboard Music Awards 2016: Best of the Red Carpet [Photos]

The Billboard Music Awards’ red carpet was ON FIRE last night. Really, the whole night was one to remember— way better than the Grammys— every performance was arresting and the array of fashion parading around was mind-blowing. Check out our picks for the top looks of the night below!

Britney Spears

Britney Spears jaw-dropping outfit was brought to you by Reem Acra and her footwear is by Schutz. This look is just Britney all the way— no one else would make sense in this ensemble.

Rihanna

Rihanna sported a vintage Thierry Mugler shirtdress with killer shoes. The singer later performed a song off of her new album, “Love on the Brain.”

Kesha

Kesha wore this eggplant colored vintage Nudie suit, which she said was inspired by Prince and Bob Dylan. And yes, Kesha was finally “allowed” to perform a cover of Dylan’s “It’s Ain’t Me Babe” by Dr. Luke. She had to promise not to make her performance a ‘statement’ against him. We’re so glad she took the stage and NAILED IT. Free Kesha!

Ciara

Ciara donned this flawless Philipp Plein chain dress on the red carpet. She looks like a perfect metallic waterfall.

Kristen Bell, Kathryn Hahn, & Mila Kunis

Bad Moms actresses Kristen Bell, Kathryn Hahn, and Mila Kunis turned up at this major event together. The trio look awesome in Jonathan Simkha, Altuzarra, and Zuhair Murad. We don’t even care that they’re not standard musical acts— they look hot!
