It’s time for the 2021 Billboard Music Awards! To help get you ready for the big event Sunday (May 23), we’ve compiled the complete list of performers and presenters who’ll be taking the stage for the show.
Nick Jonas will be a busy man come show night. The artist will not only be hosting the show live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, but he’ll also be closing the show with the Jonas Brothers. The trio will be performing a medley that will include their latest single, “Leave Before You Love Me,” with Marshmello.
One highly anticipated performance is that of global superstars BTS. The K-pop group will be taking the stage remotely from South Korea to perform their brand new single, “Butter,” which dropped on Friday (May 21). It will be the boy band’s debut performance of their second English-language single.
The Weeknd, who is a finalist in 16 categories, will also be taking the stage, as will Icon Award recipient P!nk. Drake is set to be honored with the Artist of the Decade Award, while Trae The Truth will take home Change Maker Award. As previously announced, Tina Knowles-Lawson will be presenting Trae with his award.
