The 2023 Billboard Music Awards aired Sunday night (Nov. 18) on BBMAs.watch and BBMA social channels and Billboardfeaturing eight all-new musical performances, plus acceptance speeches from some of the night’s top winners.

But beyond the show, what happened behind the scenes?

We have photos from each of the performances, including Mariah Carey’s winter wonderland; Karol G’s water-soaked stage; Tate McRae’s “greedy” gala; the colorful NewJeans display; the Featherweight boxing ring; the film set of Bebe Rexha and David Guetta; the medley of “S-Class” and “LALALALA” by Stray Kids; and Morgan Wallen’s stadium home run.

There are also behind-the-scenes portraits of the artists and more moments that weren’t seen during Sunday’s broadcast.

In a first-of-its-kind collaboration, the BBMA and Spotify Fans First teamed up to identify the fans who consumed the most hours of music over the past year and helped push their favorite artists to the top of the charts. Billboard. These fans received a “golden ticket” that gave them access to attend BBMA performances curated by their favorite artists.

Carín León and Sergio “Checo” Pérez Collaborate in Music Video Celebrating Mexican Culture

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com October 20, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Carin Leon performs at the Latin American Music Awards in Las Vegas on April 20, 2023, left, and Red Bull driver Sergio “Checo” Perez, of Mexico, appears during the Singapore Formula One Grand Prix at the Marina Bay circuit in Singapore on Sept. 15, 2023. Perez appears in the music video for “Por La Familia,” a new track from Carín León and BorderKid.AP

LOS ANGELES (AP) — In the music video for “For the family,” a new track from Carín León and BorderKid, León is whisked away into a surrealist landscape inspired by Mexico. His taxi driver? Formula One’s Sergio “Checo” Pérez.

It might seem like an unusual pairing on paper, but bringing León and Pérez actually makes a lot of sense: they’re both global icons in their respective fields, bringing Mexican culture to the masses.

León is a celebrated voice in Mexican music, proving genres like banda, mariachi, norteño and sierreño are international, not “regional Mexican music,” as his work — and the work of his contemporaries like Peso Pluma and Eslabon Armado — is often described.

Red Bull Racing’s “Checo” Pérez is the sole Mexican Formula One driver on the 2023 grid and the most successful Mexican driver in the motorsport’s history.

“I’m a very big fan of Checo. I feel like (to) every Mexican right now, he’s our biggest star in sports. We are proud of him for what he is doing for Mexican culture,” León says. “We’re happy to bring the world of music and Formula One together.”

Bringing BorderKid — the musical moniker of A-list producer Édgar Barrera — into the video was a “merge of our ideas,” says León, brought together by the project’s sponsor, Cash App, to “make something different, make something fresh, and make something very, very Mexican.”

Appreciation is mutual. “Carín León is very famous and important in our country,” says Pérez. As a fan of his music, he jumped at the opportunity, connecting with the song’s message. “It talks about my story, how everything is done for la familia.”

He says he’s noticed a deeper intersection between the sport and music — particularly Latin Music, with Maluma performing at the Grand Prix in Miami this year, and J Balvin taking the stage at the first ever Las Vegas race next month. “Latin music is having a great time,” says Pérez. “People are enjoying it and it’s great to have our Latin music all around the world.”

“It’s great to have that in the F1 community and within the sport,” he adds.

“For the artist, to have this connection with the sport, it’s like another dream come true,” says León. “I’m very happy with what’s happening with Mexican music.”

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com October 7, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

This Thursday the Latin Billboard Awards were held, which recognize the best of Latin music; At the gala, we were able to see international stars like Paris Hilton, who chose a turquoise dress that she wore with the elegant demeanor that characterizes her.

However, on this occasion, the surprise of the night, on Paris’ part, was beyond the look she chose, which although it was impeccable, did not cause as much impact as the photos that the businesswoman shared via social networks.

Paris Hilton surprised not only with her beautiful dress full of shine, but also with the photos in ‘fan’ mode that she shared, and although it is not strange for celebrities to share photos against celebrities, it caught the attention of many network users that Paris will be excited to share photos she took with the Mexican singer known as Peso Pluma.

Hassan Emilio Kabande Laija, real name of ‘Peso Pluma’, can boast that Paris not only asked him for a photo, but also shared it on his networks. The singer currently enjoys a privileged place in the international music rankings, which is why many believe that the socialite did not want to miss the opportunity to show that he rubs shoulders with the trending celebs.

Featherweight was the Latino with the most awards received during the awards ceremony, surpassing figures like Karol G and Bad Bunny. Among the awards that the young man received, four stood out for “Ella Baila Sola”, his collaboration with Eslabón Armado, and new artist of the year.

But that was not all, Paris also shared a postcard with the Colombian singer Karol G, who dressed in a white dress for the awards night. The photos of Paris with the Mexican and the interpreter originally from Medellín sparked conversation on Twitter, where many users were surprised by the simplicity that has characterized the millionaire for several years.

In addition to the photos with her famous friends, Paris also shared photos of her look, making it clear that she will always be one of the trend-setting personalities when it comes to red carpets and galas.

At the award ceremony, the young Mexican, born in Guadalajara, took the opportunity to meet one of his greatest idols and one of his main musical influences, Benito Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, better known as ‘Bad Bunny’, with whom he said, has the firm conviction of creating a collaboration. On the awards night, Peso Pluma surpassed the Puerto Rican singer in awards.

Pokémon Introduces ‘Pikachu Pluma’: A Direct Tribute to Mexican Culture

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com July 14, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Pokémon is one of the most popular franchises worldwide and although it has some of its characters inspired by or with reference to Latino culture and specifically the Mexican one, it had not made a very direct one like this Thursday with the presentation of “Pikachu Pluma”.

And it is that from his official Facebook page he shared the image of his main mascot ‘Pikachu‘, but with the hairstyle and cut of the singer of corridos lying down ‘Peso Featherweight’.

“Compa…” wrote the account next to the photo of the mentioned character. It is precisely with that word that one of the songs that have made the Jalisco singer most famous begins: ‘Ella Baila Sola’.

‘SHE CAPTURES ALONE’

With more than 37,000 reactions, mostly “amusing me,” the publication went viral and has been shared more than 23,000 times, some of them among groups or pages related to the franchise.

The reality is that the image of that ‘Featherweight Pikachu’ is an image of the character that in his video game ‘Let’s Go Pikachu’ released for the Switch console in 2018 could change the style of cut and hairstyle, this being one of the available.

“Peso Pika”, wrote the Latin video game page, Metapod for President.

While another of the fans of the video game even wrote a more complete sentence making the “clash of the two worlds”. While the user identified as Aaron Hermo wrote: “My trainer, what do you think of that poke waifu? I like the one that goes around catching alone for me”, simulating the original lyrics that Featherweight interprets together with Armed Link.

Previously, Pokémon made references in its characters to elements such as mariachi or wrestling, in the pokemon ‘Ludicolo’ and ‘Hawlucha’.

ADDING POPULARITY

The next expansion pass of the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet video game will hit stores. The first part will be available for purchase in the fall of this year, while the second part will come out in the winter with new characters and missions for the successful Nintendo Switch video game.

Featherweight reached the peak of success with the collaboration of ‘Ella Baila Sola’ since after that he began to lead streaming platforms such as Spotify or YouTube, he was also invited to be the artist on Jimmy’s star night show Fallon on American television.
