Celebrity style

American rapper Cardi B, K-pop boy band BTS and Game of Thrones actress Sophie Turner caught the eye at the annual music ceremony – but were they hits or misses?

The star-packed 2019 Billboard Music Awards ceremony was held at the MGM Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Wednesday, May 1.

The annual occasion is known for honouring a huge range of acts from different music genres – and the many celebrities who parade on the red carpet dressed in glamorous, and sometimes outrageous, styles.

This year’s highlights included the seven members of K-pop boy band BTS – winner of the awards for top duo/group and top social artist – who all came dressed in matching Alexander McQueen suits. English actress Sophie Turner, who plays Sansa Stark in HBO’s hit fantasy drama television series, Game of Thrones, channelled powerful femininity in a Louis Vuitton jumpsuit.

Check out our pick of the night’s biggest style hits and misses.

American rapper Cardi B once again challenged red-carpet norms – by dressing like a belly dancer.

Although we really adore her musical talent, we are not a fan of this fashion experiment.
