The Billboard Music Awards (BBMAs) 2017 kicked off on May 21, 2017. Some of the biggest names in the industry won awards, with Drake breaking records with 13 wins for the night. Beyoncé continued to slay for her visual album, Lemonade. Nostalgia was brought to the stage when Cher, now 71 years old played the quintessential pop diva that she is, singing live to her a number of hits. Celine Dion brought the audience to tears when she sang her heartfelt rendition for My Heart Will Go On and danced backstage when Cher was belting out Believe.
