Morgan Wallen To Perform At 2023 Billboard Music Awards From Atlanta Braves’ Ballpark

Charlie Amter Few artists ever have had a year on the scale of Morgan Wallen’s 2023. The crossover country star broke multiple streaming and radio records — such as having his smash “Last Night” become the longest-running solo No. 1 in Billboard Hot 100 history, with 16 weeks atop the chart — all while picking up the millions of new fans that helped sell out shows nationwide.

Levi Walker, Jr., best known as the Atlanta Braves mascot Chief Noc-A-Homa, died Friday afternoon at age 80.

K-pop group NewJeans made their American awards show debut last night at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards. This year's show was aired on Billboard's social media channels rather than traditional broadcast networks and featured pre-recorded acceptance speeches and performances.

Morgan Wallen was among the top winners at this year’s Billboard Music Awards despite his racism controversy.The country star won a total of 11 categories including top male artist and album, single of the year, top country artist, top streaming songs artist and top country touring artist. During his acceptance speech, he said: “Last awards show I went to we came home empty-handed and this one I don’t have enough hands for them all.”The country star was banned from 2021’s ceremony – among other awards shows – after footage of him using a racial slur surfaced online.

NewJeans have made their first Billboard Music Awards appearance with a special medley performance of their hit songs ‘Super Shy’ and ‘OMG’.The K-pop girl group kicked things off with an energetic performance of ‘Super Shy’, dressed in schoolgirl outfits, reminiscent of Britney Spears‘ iconic ‘…Baby One More Time’ music video.Following a quick consume change, NewJeans returned to the stage with a funky remix of their viral hit single ‘OMG’. Watch the K-pop girl group’s 2023 Billboard Music Awards performance below:In an interview with Women’s Wear Daily prior to the performance, NewJeans member Hanni said that the quintet had “practiced a lot and made sure we were all on the same page regarding the type of energy and the performance we wanted to portray”.Speaking of their schoolgirl stage outfits, Hyein said that they “highlight each member’s individuality”.

2024 Grammy nominations were announced.But even as top contenders SZA, Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo were already getting fitted for gowns, something was amiss.The fact that the nominees for music’s top prize were being announced before anyone got to chow and cocktail down for Friendsgiving — let alone Thanksgiving — made it feel way too early in the awards season.I mean, Mariah Carey didn’t even have enough time to properly defrost.Add to that the fact that the 2023 Country Music Awards took place just two days before the 2024 Grammy nominations were announced — and you knew that something just ain’t right with music award shows.That trend continued on Sunday night, when the Billboard Music Awards took the pre-Thanksgiving weekend spot long occupied by the American Music Awards — and turned it into one big turkey. (To make matters even weirder, both the BBMAs and the AMAs are owned by the same parent company.)Indeed, while the BBMAs were previously aired on NBC — these awards were relegated to a damn Billboard website.

It was a big night for Taylor Swift and Morgan Wallen at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards as they both took the most trophies.

Billboard Awards.Mariah Carey brought the holiday spirit to the stage with a Aspen-inspired performance of her record-breaking hit “All I Want for Christmas is You” on Sunday. Her performance marked the first time the “Vision of Love” singer performed her modern holiday classic at an awards show. Carey, 54, made her way onto the stage by slowly being dropped down by a ski lift.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music This year’s Grammy noms are a refreshingly diverse look at the past year of music, with a huge number of female artists and racially and musically diverse nominees in the leading categories (see the full list of 2024 Grammy nominations here). Yet as the past few years in particular have shown, leading the Recording Academy, the Grammys’ parent organization, is no day at the beach — having to build consensuses and move the organization forward while making sure it accurately reflects current trends in music and business, in an art form that is almost entirely subjective.
